Clock DVA’s seminal 1981 post-punk album ‘Thirst’ receives a 45th-anniversary remaster via The Grey Area of Mute, arriving June 5, 2026 on double thirst-red vinyl, CD, and digital formats. Originally released on Fetish Records, the Sheffield industrial group’s second album marked a shift from their improvised, tape-driven debut toward structured songwriting. This expanded reissue, mastered from original tapes with input from surviving band members, features the original nine tracks plus live recordings, alternate single versions of ‘Four Hours’ and ‘Sensorium,’ and two newly recorded 2026 versions. The vinyl comes in standard and signed art-card editions. The remaster continues Mute’s systematic catalogue campaign, following 2025’s ‘White Souls in Black Suits’ reissue. Original sleeve notes by Genesis P-Orridge accompany production credits to Ken Thomas and designer Neville Brody.
