Depeche Mode / Playing The Angel: The 12″ Singles
The 12″ vinyl box set series continues
The next in the series of Depeche Mode 12-inch singles boxes will be issued in November. Playing The Angel: The 12″ Singles spotlights the remixes from the band’s 11th studio album, originally issued back in 2005.
The four singles were ‘Precious’, ‘A Pain That I’m Used To’, ‘Suffer Well‘, and ‘John The Revelator/Lilian‘. This new box set contains ten 12-inch singles which equals the record of the Violator box from 2020.
This box actually does something new, in that it features replicates both 12-inch singles for each single from the original era (plus limited edition single ‘The Darkest Star’) and then adds something called ‘Playing The Angel Promotional Collection’ on a final 12-inch, which gathers single versions, B-sides and other remixes. This is probably because some of this content was issued on CD at the time but not on 12-inch vinyl.
Playing The Angel: The 12″ Singles will be released on 11 November 2022. As usual the set comes with a poster and a download card.
