New Visage remix compilation and seven-CD limited edition set

visage_extended

Earlier this month SDE posted about the new Visage compilation Wild Life: The Best of 1978 to 2015 (out soon). It’s fair to say that this was met with a decidedly lukewarm reception by fans who were looking for something a bit more nuanced and well, interesting.

Their hopes now rest in a ‘sister companion’ subtitled The Best Of Extended Versions and Remixes – 1978 to 2015 (presumably the expected ‘CDX’ version) which will be issued in January, along with a seven-CD package which includes both versions of this compilation and a plethora of instrumental versions of later material.

Although the title might suggest a multi-disc set, The Best Of Extended Versions and Remixes – 1978 to 2015 is actually just one single CD or two vinyl records. The vinyl package appears to offer a bonus track of Your Skin Is My Sin (Antidote Extended Version) – other than that, they deliver the same 11 remixes.

The seven-disc “Signature and Postcards Limited Edition” doesn’t look like it’s a ‘box set’ as such, but brings together both standard and remix CDs of The Wild Life and adds FIVE further discs as follows:

  • • The Wild Life (Best Of, 1978-2015) [Download Versions on Printed CDR]
  • • Hearts And Knives Instrumentals [CD]
  • • Orchestral Instrumentals [CD]
  • • Demons To Diamonds Instrumentals [CD]
  • • Fierce Verve (Wild Life Instrumentals Exclusive Edition) [CD]

This package also comes with a Visage postcard hand-signed by Steve Barnacle, Lauren Duvall, Robin Simon and Logan Sky as well as Visage ‘special edition’ postcards and some stickers. You can order this exclusively via the Visage online store.

Arguably, the new remix CD still doesn’t really offer enough rarities, and the seven-disc package is very heavy on instrumentals, although it’s fairly well-priced.

Availability for anything other than the standard Wild Life is currently limited on Amazon, although everything is orderable via the Visage online store and you can buy the instrumental discs individually there too.

The Wild Life compilation is out on 12 December while the remix version has a release date of 20 January on Amazon Germany, although you might get these earlier via the official shop. The communication and promotion of these sets has been a mess, frankly, but you can at least check out all the track listings below.
