It's the old school business model of releasing a single to get promo going, and hopefully the song becomes a hit, and then the album generally a few months later. The model has changed so much and the songs rarely make any impact on radio, I'm surprised they're not just going boom, single, a month later, boom, album. Unless they're planning on doing the promo they didn't really do for WAN it seems a waste of time.

B-sides I dont think we'll get. Bonus tracks for other territories and exclusives for certain places I think so.
