Depeche Mode release a unique package this week.
Ready for this? Their new single will be released in three versions simultaneously:
‘Somebody’ with ‘Blasphemous Rumours’ on the B-side in 7”
‘Blasphemous Rumours’ as the A-side on the 12” with four live tracks, ‘Somebody’, ‘Two Minute Warning’, ‘Ice Machine’ and ‘Everything Counts’ (played at 33rpm).
And finally, a 7” double A-sided four-track single, featuring ‘Somebody’ (remixed version), ‘Everything Counts’ (live), ‘Blasphemous Rumours’ and ‘Told You So’ (live).
Apparently the record will not be released in any other format!
