Bubblegum XX is a three-cd set containing BUBBLEGUM, HERE COMES THAT WEIRD CHILL (METHAMPHETAMINE BLUES, EXTRAS & ODDITIES) to which three bonus tracks have been added and a disc of DEMOS AND UNRELEASED SONGS. All tracks have been newly remastered by Geoff Pesche at Abbey Road. The demos and unreleased tracks are beautiful to hear. Mark"s voice is front and center, and about them, Josh Homme said, "Mark"s early solo works are undeniably powerful. They"re sombre, fragile, breath-taking, beautiful and they"re more real than everyone else"s." Of the thirteen tracks, seven of them are outtakes from the Bubblegum sessions. "Union Tombstone" includes Beck on harmonica and vocals with Mark. The last six tracks on the album were recorded, produced and mixed by Troy Van Leeuwen in various hotel rooms with just Mark singing and Troy playing all the instruments. About the sessions, Troy said... "So these hotel demo sessions were basically forgotten...When I heard the news of Mark"s passing, these memories started rushing back to me. I searched through my archive of drives and somehow magically was able to open up these sessions. I thought to myself, "That NEVER happens." These ideas couldn"t be more fresh out of the tap. The original rough mixes are a real time capsule that stands up to the 20 years that have passed. It"s a true gift from Mark to those of us who love him and his unvarnished expression of beauty. With every listen, I am humbled and honored to share his gift with you."
