Razor & Tie is the label releasing the record and you can read the press release and listen to a track called ‘Powerless’ here.
Genesis’ longtime home, "The Farm" is the main focus of a new video clip recently uploaded to the band’s official website.
Producer Nick Davis plays host as we are given a virtual tour of the studio and the people who maintain the day-to-day running of The Farm facilities.

It appears there has been some contractual problems with Walmart having the exclusive rights to the US release of When In Rome, as lots of fans are reporting that they are not able to find the DVD in their local Walmart outlets (particularly in the North East). Add to that, it is no longer available to buy on the store’s website.
Genesis Management are currently looking into this.
Despite this, When In Rome still managed to enter Billboard’s Music Video chart in the number 2 slot.
You can order the NTSC version online here.
