The debut studio album by the English pop band, originally released in June 1982. Though not a concept album, the album features repeated themes in which the singer experiences heartache as he tries and fails to have a meaningful relationship. A commemoration of the album that kickstarted the '80s. With rare tracks and concert performances never before on vinyl, plus the original album half-speed mastered at Abbey Road by Miles Showell; a first time HD restoration on Blu-Ray of ABC's feature film, Mantrap, plus a brand new Atmos and 5.1 surround mix of the album (individual and continuous mix) by Steven Wilson plus notes from Martin Fry himself, and essay by Record Collector's Daryl Easlea, this is a suitably sumptuous celebration of one of the most perfect pop albums ever. Double-gatefold packaging including outtakes of the cover photo session by Gered Mankowitz.
