35th Anniversary Colored Vinyl LP Reissue with Newly Remastered Audio by Denis Blackham (Skye Mastering) and Two Bonus Tracks Plus Exclusive Art Card

Mute / BMG present a special 35th Anniversary Edition Remaster of A Way of Life, the third studio album by influential electronic-punk duo Suicide. Although the band were relatively underrated during their career, Suicide are cited as one of the most inspirational bands of the 1970s, influencing the likes Soft Cell, Depeche Mode and The Jesus And Mary Chain, whilst garnering fans in Nick Cave, Jim Thirlwell, M.I.A., Spiritualized, Lydia Lunch, Bobby Gillespie and Savages to name a few. Originally released in 1988, more than a decade after their iconic self-titled album, A Way of Life saw Alan Vega and Martin Rev once again team up with The Cars' frontman Ric Ocasek to produce "nine creepily ingratiated industrial pop songs" (Pitchfork). This anniversary edition sees the album fully remastered by Denis Blackham (Skye Mastering) and augmented with a pair of bonus tracks: "Heat Beat" and a newly unearthed live cover of Bruce Springsteen's "Born in the USA."
