Some great reward for Depeche Mode fans: more 12” singles to be released in vinyl box sets

By creammagazine, November 8, 2018

As renowned for their remixes as they are for their songs in original form, Depeche Mode will continue releasing their classic tracks on 12” vinyl, providing fans with more excellent music in the form of Construction Time Again | The 12” Singles and Some Great Reward | The 12” Singles.

The box sets will be released December 14, just in time for your quasi-goth-themed Christmas.

Each definitive box set contains six 12″ vinyl singles contemporaneous (that’s a big word for connected) to the Construction Time Again and Some Great Reward LPs. For the record, the former was released in 1983 and the latter in 1984, with both albums significantly advancing the band’s sound and vision, introducing audiences to some of the most inventive mixes in DM history while catapulting their international mass appeal to soaring new heights.

The Depeche Mode 12″ Singles Series will continue over the coming years, with plans to release boxes containing the singles from each of the band’s albums in similar deluxe audiophile-grade collector’s editions.

Full tracklistings of the current lot are outlined below.
