The reissue features unheard live recordings and the entire album has been fully remastered for its 2025 release. It will be available digitally, on a Gatefold 2LP Petrol and Forest Green vinyl with printed inner sleeves and 2CD digisleeve with both physical formats accompanied by a booklet with liner notes written by Mark Radcliffe.

Speaking on the release, bassist and founding member Mick Quinn said "From a lost winter in the French countryside we attempted an experimental, uplifting record far outside our comfort zone. Road To Rouen became a compact joy that still holds a cherished place in our hearts. Vive la différence."

Road To Rouen, which was first released on 15th August 2005, was critically acclaimed and reached number nine on the UK charts.

The record, which marked a significant sift for the band by showcasing a more introspective sound with longer, orchestral arrangements, included the singles St. Petersburg, Low C and Fin as well as the album's title track.
