a-ha’s 2009 album Foot Of The Mountain is finally set to be reissued on 180 gram vinyl by Universal on 15 November 2024.

Update 8 November: It seems the release has been pushed back to 6 December 2024. It is now described as a 15th Anniversary Edition on Crystal Clear Vinyl, while a sticker on the cover says “Strictly Limited Edition”. The reissue can be pre-ordered from amazon.co.uk and amazon.de.

The album was first released on 180 gram vinyl in January 2016, but only as a limited edition here in Norway. Reportedly only a few hundred copies were pressed, eventually selling out and making it a sought-after collector’s item.

Although this new 2024 reissue is also described by some retailers as a “limited edition”, hopefully it won’t be quite as limited as the Norwegian pressing. Additionally it’s described as “coloured vinyl”, while the 2016 version was black vinyl in a gatefold sleeve.

Several retailers already has the vinyl up for pre-order, including JPC in Germany and imusic in Norway.
