Invincible 25th Anniversary

Was bored yesterday and made this custom cover, since the actual cover always bugs me...slightly. There are way too many variations of MJs face so I tried something using the 99 photoshoot:
I also found these uploads from a person who went out of his way to restore the mastering of the album using various tricks:

His process:
 
25 years! Seems like only yesterday I was listening to the album leaks before it was released. The lead up to that album was torture, there was precious little news, just the occasional bit of grand hyperbole from people in the know.

I'd want any 25th anniversary release to give it the second chance it deserves. Some tracks really resonate with younger generations, and there were clearly songs like Threatened that were made with short films in mind.

they should absolutely release an anniversary edition of Invincible along with the second MJ movie. they got perfect single material available: GYWOOM.
 
i think they might actually do something for invincible of all things
this album has been popular amongst younger audiences, and the estates focus (aside from the biopic) is to bring in new fans. itd make sense in my eyes

I don’t get the high praise for this song at all.
But if your favorite album is Invincible, then it’s understandable.
Personally, I don’t care much for it….neither the original album nor any deluxe version.
Still, if it’s released, I’d definitely give any unreleased songs a listen.
 
For Michael, Invincible seems to have been a serious project, like the albums before it:

SB: If your career now suffers for being a hands-on father, you are prepared to accept that price?
MJ: No, I am not prepared for that. I can do both. I feel I have to.

Can we please bombard the estate with the request to release something? It's not too late for them to come up with something just in time.
Great idea! This will motivate them to post on social media some gem from the actual studio sessions.

It was m last ever full studio album so it is really something. I think it is like the last photo shoots. All of these projects in his last later years should be documented.

The folks at the estate don't care about anything except for money.

I keep seeing this argument but this is absolutely not true. If they were after money they would release way more things. Even stuff that only diehard-fans would care about. The only thing the estate does is to keep it safe with their releases because of MJs reputation. They just ocasionally remind people that he did Thriller and Bad and that's it.

I really love the fan synth cover of Threatened. Honestly, I think it was one of Michael's biggest missed opportunities during the album sessions. This song suits a synth-driven sound so much better than guitars... and that’s exactly how it sounded in This Is It! With that sound, the track truly comes alive and captures that Halloween vibe Michael was clearly going for. I’d love to see a fan-made remix with a proper synth focus. The song is brilliant, but the album version is unfortunately held back by its own production
