Three singles, a box
Watch out the record lover and Depeche mode fans: The British synth popicons start a special Reissue series in 2018 and set up their 12 "singles-each as a vinyl box with 180 g-LPs.
Each box set gathers the singles of a certain Depeche fashion album. It starts with "Speak & Spell" and "A Broken Frame". Further releases should follow.
"Speak & Spell" is the first studio album from Depeche Mode. It originally appeared in 1981. The singles of the new vinyl box include the songs "Dreaming of Me", "New Life" and "Just Can't Get Enough" together with the "Ice Machine", "Shout! (Rio Mix) "and" King of the Flies ".
For the new edition, all pieces in the legendary London Abbey Road Studios were removed by the original tapes.
The "Speak & Spell" box is rounded off by a bonus flexi disc, a poster and a download card.
Reviews
"These first six 12" singles of the first few years with remixes, longer versions and additional songs are now re-published in two valuable boxes and extra material such as a poster and in the case of Speak & Spell of a red Flexi-Single with ›Sometimes I Was Was Dead‹ on the A and Fad Gadgets ›King of the Flies‹ on the B-side ...
