The blurb on Amazon says they'll be full length on the CD:

"Limited Edition first single taken from their 2006 album, their first
new studio recordings in 23 years! 'Wire And Glass', the single, is an
11 minute track consisting of segments of six tracks on the album (these
tracks will be featured in their entirety on the full length release).
Welcome back Pete and Roger! Polydor. "
