Originally released via the legendary Factory Records, Substance 1987 compiled all of the band’s singles to that point in their 12” versions with many of their respective B-sides (on the CD and cassette versions), and specially new recorded versions of ‘Temptation’ and ‘Confusion’. The album also included the biggest selling 12” single of all time, Blue Monday, alongside other classic singles The Perfect Kiss, Bizarre Love Triangle and the band’s debut single release Ceremony. The album is the band’s biggest selling to date, with over one million copies sold, going platinum in the US with a Top5 hit in True Faith which was accompanied by the seminal video, directed by French choreographer Philippe Decouflé. This new remastered collection includes double vinyl album, double CD with b-sides, double cassette and an expanded 4CD collection. The 4CD version includes the original 2CD set remastered with two additional CDs. CD3 expands the collection with alternate versions and extra b-sides. CD4 features an unreleased concert, Live from Irvine Meadows, California, 12th September 1987, where the band uniquely played the entire album in sequence.
