Released in 1980 as the follow-up to their 1979 debut, Three Imaginary Boys , and featuring a new line-up that included Simon Gallup and Matthieu Hartley , this is the album that gave the band their first hit ("A Forest"), and also began to solidify the brooding atmospheric sound that would soon make these grandfathers of goth international pop icons. This reissue includes 15 bonus tracks.
