Depeche Mode has left a strong impression behind during their ’80s and ’90s run. With every release, they sold an enviable number of albums powered by classic singles. By 1990, with release of Violator, the band has issued more than a handful of tracks that not only captured more fan interest but ruled the dance markets as well. Violator was not to be ignored. Nor was their Violator follow-up, Songs Of Faith and Devotion (1993).
On April 24, Rhino celebrates the classic singles output of Violator with a vinyl box called Violator – The 12″ Singles. This limited edition and individually numbered collection will pack in 10 12″ vinyl singles that are remastered (2020) from original audio and adorned with original artwork. A reproduction poster is included as is a download certificate for the digital tracks.
Tracks here include both original and special edition versions of:
- Personal Jesus
- Enjoy The Silence
- Policy Of Truth
- World In My Eyes
Also included are an etched bonus vinyl of “Enjoy The Silence”, a Blue sealed edition of “World In My Eyes”, and a 12″ promo reproduction of “World In My Eyes” that will feature rarities on the disc.
