CD - Eco card sleeve with original sleeve notes by the late Genesis P. Orridge (2026 Remastered Reissue). The second release in Mute’s extensive reissue campaign of the full Clock DVA catalogue, Thirst has been expanded and remastered from the original tapes with input from all surviving members. Following on from the experimental jazz infused debut album White Souls in Black Suits, 1981’s Thirst is when Clock DVA explored the more commercial song based avenue of what would become the darkwave industrial scene. The album includes fan favourite and Industrial Goth dancefloor classics "4 Hours" and "Sensorium", including a brand new version of each as bonus tracks, recorded by Clock DVA as they are in 2026.
