The “Master Key Edition” is a three-disc package offering fans the opportunity to experience the album from new perspectives. Alongside the original album, the set includes a complete collection of instrumental versions, orchestral versions of selected songs and live recordings captured during the band’s recent touring cycle.
“We invite you to explore deeper into ‘A Fortress Called Home’ with this ‘Master Key Edition!'” the band said. “Who knows what secrets you may find hidden in the instrumentals and orchestral arrangements? What memories will you behold in the gallery of live souvenirs from the last two years?”
