Release and promotion

The album was released as CD and digital download on 21 May 2012. The LP version was delayed to 2 July 2012, due to quality problems in the vinyl pressing.[16][17]

The first single taken from the album, "Longest Day", was released as digital download on 2 April 2012. A limited etched 7" vinyl version of the single, with only 300 copies pressed, was released on Record Store Day 20 April 2012.[18]

The second single "Take Me Back Home" was released as digital download on 20 August 2012.[19] An official music video was released from the track, directed by High 5 Collective. The video doesn't feature the artists themselves, but a story of life and loss.[20]

Originally there were no plans to tour in support of the album, since Dave Gahan was going to the studio late March 2012 to start working on the next Depeche Mode record.[15] However, the band played an invite-only "secret show" at Capitol Studios in Los Angeles on 21 July 2012. According to Depeche Mode manager, Jonathan Kessler, further one-off shows are possible. The full set of seven songs at Capitol was recorded and the 30-minute concert video "Live in Hollywood" has been streaming exclusively at the Rolling Stone website since 13 December 2012.[21][22] According to Rich Machin, it will be available as a limited edition DVD in Europe early 2013.[23]

Soulsavers premiered a music video for the track 'Take' . It was released on 28 February 2013 via Clash Music. The video was directed by filmmaker Bernhard Wittich.[24]

Critical reception

The album received generally positive reviews from music critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album received an average score of 73, based on 11 reviews, which indicates "generally favorable reviews".[25]
