Depeche Mode Reconstruct Legacy With Reissues

Depeche Mode are hatching open their old albums for two souped-up packages coming on March 20.

Rhino will re-release 1983's Construction Time Again and 1986's Black Celebration as two-disc sets that include the original album on the first and a DVD featuring remixes, B-sides, live performances and current band interviews about the albums. Each package will also come with lyrics and rare photos.

Construction Time Again was the band's third studio album, but first to feature keyboardist/arranger Alan Wilder as a full-time member. It was originally a nine-track release. Black Celebration, the group's fifth effort, was an 11-song LP.

Rhino reissued 1982's A Broken Flame, 1984's Some Great Reward and 1993's Songs Of Faith And Devotion last October. A number of Depeche Mode's early singles will also be included on Mute Records' forthcoming commemorative boxed set.
