I don't think they completely re-recorded them from scratch, but there are definitely a lot of new-sounding elements. Don't know if that counts as a remix or not.

got my ticket for London. Almost an anticlimax to get it first time with no hitches along the way, I was prepared to again spend hours on crashing websites.

Sold out now, but I got one late yesterday afternoon, so i think yeah, they shook off a lot of people with the last London shows.
Finding Shaken-up really addictive, Got 2 Let U especially.

katherine describes the album as "remixes" three times - are they actually remixes, not re-recordings?

vocals might have been re-recorded, it is basically The Tour: The Album

Our LAST tour? Not the final tour, I guess?
We are doing our last tour!In the autumn we will round up the Shaking The Habitual Show Tour with a number of European dates. After the touring last year we reworked the show during the winter. The performers, previously known as dancers, learnt how to sing and play instruments, the stage got three levels, Shannon Funchess joined us and the show became more fun and shiny. We performed it in the US in the spring and now we would love you to join us in our dance for some last shaking moves. "A handfull elf peeThat’s my soulSpray it alloverFill the bowlLegs astrideAn axe to grindGenerous actions with the speed of lightWithout you my life would be boring”See you on the dance floor.../Olof and Karin, The Knife Shaking The Habitual Show Tour Dates:Oct 31 - Annexet, Stockholm, Sweden - 22/08/14 @ 9AM CETNov 01 - Film Studios, Gothenburg, Sweden - 22/08/14 @ 9AM CETNov 03 - Arena, Berlin, Germany - Buy TicketsNov 05 - Academy, Manchester, UK - Buy TicketsNov 06 - Brixton Academy, London, UK - Buy TicketsNov 08 - Iceland Airwaves Festival, Reykjavík - Buy Tickets

Only got this today, a month after Merdeyeux found out... weird. Maybe those dates weren't official yet?
― StanM, Thursday, 21 August 2014 12:39 (nine years ago) link
They're breaking up after the tour.

just saw this, kinda sucks, but I guess it's good to go out on a high note
does this mean there will be more Fever Ray albums?

Oh, I am sad that they are no more. But I do feel like both of them are going to come out with more fantastic work, so I'm not that sad.

I hope they reunite for Coachella.

Yeah I'm not really going to read too much into this "break up", considering it's on good terms and there was such a long interval between Silent Shout and Shaking the Habitual. I'd be surprised if they never made any music together again.
― uxorious gazumping (monotony), Thursday, 21 August 2014 23:14 (nine years ago) link
Yeah I am not surprised at all with them ending the Knife, which seems to be a better way to describe than a 'break up'.
Pretty cool that their last show will be in Iceland.
― Van Horn Street, Thursday, 21 August 2014 23:22 (nine years ago) link
bummed as they are so great together. still we might still have Fever Ray, so not all is lost.

Seems weird they're doing just one Europa Europa show, keeping my fingers crossed for some additional dates...

Right? It's still a recent album to me. Although maybe the time is demarcated by how pivotal it felt at the time compared to how little I think about it or want to play it these days. Maybe it's to do with the album's topics now having become much more mainstream and centre-table than at the time? Although I can't remember a time when financial equality and gender rights weren't big topics?
