hey guys, look what i found!
found it here!!!
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BONKERS-ORIGINAL-HARDCORE-3-X-CD-ALBUM-NEW-MINT_W0QQitemZ290311579776QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CDsDVDs_CDs_CDs_GL?hash=item290311579776&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1687%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318#ebayphotohosting
you can imagine my face when i was browsing the ebay pages for hardcore...and came across that lol!
just in case it disapears here are the details given:
"Release Date : 11-May-2009
( U.M.T.V. )-( U.M.T.V )
Overview
Bonkers – The Original Hardcore is the new 3CD hardcore album from AATW / UMTV.
Bonkers – the newly acquired hardcore brand by AATW and UMTV is a hardcore institution – previously reaching it’s 17th album before this new TV advertised album which is set to take the charts
Hardcore is flying – this is seen by the recent success of Scooter, Darren Styles and Ultrabeat not forgetting the other hardcore compilation albums currently on the scene including Hardcore Til I Die & Clubland Xtreme Hardcore 4. We have seen tremendous success in the Hardcore scene and Bonkers will replicate this. The track listing will feature acts such as Scooter, Styles & Breeze, Dougal & Gammer, Flip & Fill, Darren Styles, Hixxy and LMC.
The difference between this and other Hardcore albums is that this is Bonkers! Bonkers is a widely recognised brand with a huge loyal following and this TV album will take that brand to the next level. The new Bonkers album will be the first of its kind establishing on TV the Bonkers brand and setting up the series for more instalments.
The album features the old identity of the Bonkers brand – retaining the original (but now super-rendered) logo and the original DJs as they are the biggest names in the Hardccore scene today – Hixxy, Sharkey and Unknown but incorporates new elements with the bright sleeve and brand new track listing featuring the biggest names around.
The album will be supported by a heavy TV marketing campaign, support across all the terrestrial channels and Sky – will also be running a Bauer promotion featuring the album on channels such as 4music & Smash Hits – we will also have the full support of Clubland TV- week one spend will be 60K+. We will also be running massive online campaigns across all the UMG, AATW & Clubland sites – also specifically targeting sites such as Hardcore Til I Die and Don’t Stay In.
This album will be released on the 11th May.
BONKERS – THE NEXT GENERATION!"
**edit**
took away annoying caps :)

That's not bad at all really. Quite happy with that. :)
Really not happy they have started the series from 1 again though!

Not bad. Would look much better with the cartoons though. Can't believe they started again. Can't see this lasting as long as the original Bonkers either.

Hmm only just read the press release. Not looking so good! Sounds like the Unknown and Hixxy disks could be rubbish.

Hmm the artwork doesnt look too bad. Bit cheesy Eurodance i thought but ok i guess.
That blurb makes for grim reading though, what's the original source of that nugget of information? Hopefully its some ebay hoaxter trying to have a laugh.
Nice find anyway mate, must have been a right bloody shock lol

Well, we all knew this would happen, didn't we?  Yet another Clubland. I am looking forward to the Scooter track though. Thank god for Hardcore Underground 3, might very well be the new Bonkers since AATW has clublanded it.

It was until AATW bought it.

Since when was Unknown one of the original DJs?

Seems like its the info their giving to stores (hence the heavy use of "TV Advertised", which usually means that stores should get it in stock in large quantities).

hehe, its not that bad at all, im glad they kept the logo....i think
it does ooooze commercialism though especially how that press release is written focusing on AATW artists lol (of course)
i say again though, that whole thing that it says about
"The difference between this and other Hardcore albums is that this is Bonkers!"
because that really wasnt the case, it was all to do with the music on the albums...but yeah, unless this has a bonkers-esq tracklist...then the only thing making it different from clubland xhardcore...and 90% of the other releases from the last few years will be the fact it is called "bonkers"
i wonder if sharkey will be MCing over the TV ads, like he has in the last 9 albums...
