Soft Cells 2002 reunion album Cruelty Without Beauty is set for reissue in new expanded and remastered 2CD format, as well as being released on vinyl for the very first time.Long regarded by many fans as an overlooked masterpiece, the album features a lyrical outlook that was as true to Soft Cells maturity and perspective back in 2002 as it is relevant and accurate to the world situation in 2020. Harshly honest, fatalistic and bleakly humorous, Cruelty Without Beauty also preserves the bands highly distinctive and edgy sound, and stands alongside their greatest work.The new 2020 version includes tracks originally destined for the album, but for various reasons not on the final cut. It also includes brand new 2020 versions of album highlights Monoculture, Together Alone, Darker Times and Last Chance, updated this year by Dave Ball. Also included are a number of unreleased live versions of album tracks, plus rare remixes. Pressed on heavyweight pink vinyl, and especially remastered for this format.
