So, after buying over the years the Original version of Mystic Places.., then buying the 2002 re-releaase, with different artwork -( mainly because it had the 4 tracks from the ToaLR EP )- it's being re-released again, with the same bonus tracks, but different artwork. I'm afraid i think its a little poor... (there was nothing wrong with the 1st, or 2nd version of the artwork!)
I've already got all the albums, so i shouldn't really complain. Just annoys me that companies / bands re-release their stuff with only slight differences. Then fans have to decide to waste their money, or not bother. Afraid i won't be bothering this time round.
Unless theres some unreleased bonus tracks somewhere on the other releases, or they have been fully remastered of course...

2Ruptured Souls; the reason they are doing this once again is that the 2002 re-issues themselves are extremely hard to find and in that 10 year span SepticFlesh has grown from a band that almost no one know to a band that every extreme metal fan knows. Many of these fans want the old albums, but have no way of locating physical copies. Its not a cash grab, because lets be honest, there is no profit for the band in extreme metal record sales. This is purely for the fans who cannot obtain their material. If I were you, I would just be stoked that you have the rare editions that fans lust over! The same thing happened with Amon Amarth. After they released the Persuit Of Vikings video their popularity exploded and the old albums were impossible to find, So Metal Blade reissued the entire back catalog. The label is actually helping fans out by doing this. The worst is when labels release "special rare collector's platinum edition" of an album that's only 6 months old, is cheaper than the original standard edition and features a ton of new content. That's when we should be upset.

I’m going to agree with Grimwar.
Everyone on here knows how much I love Septic but it was Communion that got me into them.
I’ve gone back and explored the back catalog and I understand why the early albums hold a special place with the fans.
But sorry I’d much rather hear the first four albums redone.
Septic doesn’t really click with me till Revolution DNA.
But that seems to be the case with a lot of bands in get into later like Dimmu Borgir.
A lot of Dimmu fans love For All Tid but I can only go as far back as Spiritual Black Dimensions.
That said I do like this album cover better.
