That new Michael Jackson album we told you yesterday might be coming out later this month? Yeah, it’s not really a new album. Instead it’s a compilation of “13 of his all-time most electrifying and danceable tracks,” as a press release describes it. As we reported yesterday, it is entitled Scream and is due out September 29 (via Sony Legacy). Alas it doesn’t even include one previously unreleased track by Jackson. Instead there’s “Blood on the Dance Floor X Dangerous,” which is described as “a high-energy five-song mashup from the acclaimed remixer The White Panda who created a seamless new musical experience.”
As we theorized yesterday, the album is timed to Halloween. As a press release points out: “The choice of tracks for Scream reflects The King of Pop’s affection for this time of the year and its themes of costumes and disguise, darkness and light, character transformations and surprise.” A glow-in-the-dark vinyl version of the album will be released October 27, just in time for Halloween. Below is the full tracklist.

1. This Place Hotel
