Following on from the success of 2020’s deluxe reissue of Vienna, Chrysalis Records are proud to release a 40th Anniversary of the bands second album with Midge Ure, Rage In Eden.

Originally released in October 1981 and like the band’s previous two albums, Rage In Eden was produced by Conny Plank (Kraftwerk, Can, Neu!), this time recorded at Conny’s studio in Cologne over a 3 month period during the summer of ‘81. The album features hit singles The Thin Wall and The Voice. The album reached number 4 in the UK charts.

6CD - This new 6 Disc box set contains 52 tracks, with 22 previously unreleased recordings. CD's 1 to 5 contain the original 1981 album production master, a new stereo mix by Steven Wilson, A-sides, B-sides & live tracks along with previously unreleased cassette rehearsals and a newly mixed concert recorded at Hammersmith Odeon in October 1981. The DVD (Audio Only) contains a new 5.1 Surround Sound Mix of the Album/B-sides by Steven Wilson along with 24/96 Hi- Res audio of the new mixes and the original 1980 Master/B-sides.

This new vinyl edition has been mastered and cut at half-speed by Alchemy at AIR from the original 1981 production tapes. The second bonus vinyl includes single versions and B-sides from the two singles released from the album.
