Album Notes & Community Reviews

Continuing their streak of massive commercial dominance in the UK, Vince Clarke and Andy Bell delivered another immaculately produced collection of dramatic synthpop. 'Wild!' is slightly darker and more club-oriented than their previous blockbuster 'The Innocents', leaning heavily into hi-NRG dance rhythms beneath Bell's intensely romantic, theatrical vocals. The record yielded four massive hit singles, securing their status as electronic pop royalty.
