Rhino Announces 'Depeche Mode 12'

Out October 30

RHINO RECORDS' 12" vinyl singles project from DEPECHE MODE continues with the release of SONGS OF FAITH AND DEVOTION - THE 12" SINGLES, a numbered, limited edition package, coming OCTOBER 30. The set is available for pre-order here.

The collector's edition deluxe boxed set, contains eight 12" discs showcasing the singles, "I Feel You," "Walking In My Shoes," "Condemnation" and "In Your Room," plus key B-sides, mixes and live recordings contemporaneous to the band's pivotal 1993 release.  

From their earliest days as a band, DEPECHE MODE have championed 12" vinyl format which allowed the band to explore new sonic possibilities, while the tactile physical beauty of real world packaging gave them room to develop a sophisticated and commanding design aesthetic. DEPECHE MODE used their singles discography as a means of offering left field remixes, rare B-sides, standout concert performances and other exclusive delights for fans.

Earlier DEPECHE MODE 12" SINGLES boxed sets were released for the albums Speak & Spell, A Broken Frame, Construction Time Again, and Some Great Reward in 2018. RHINO released Black Celebration and Music For The Masses in 2019, while the most recent in the series, a boxed set for the 1990 album Violator, was released in JULY. 

Each boxed set contains the singles from each DEPECHE MODE album on audiophile-quality 12" vinyl, with audio mastered from the original tapes. The artwork for the exterior of each of the box sets draws on iconography inspired by the original releases, while the vinyl sleeves themselves feature the original single artwork.
