Album Notes & Community Reviews

Taking its title from the date its final mix was completed, the fourteenth studio album by the Scottish veterans acts as a conscious return to their grand, stadium-ready 1980s peak. The record heavily incorporates Jim Kerr's dramatic vocal delivery and the band's signature mix of sweeping keyboards and delay-heavy post-punk guitar hooks.
