Massive Front Line Assembly reissue campaign on vinyl (featuring bonus tracks) to celebrate the band’s 30th year anniversary – you can stream the remastered releases right here!
ArtOfFact Records is on a new reissue spree of Front Line Assembly releases to celebrate the band’s 30th year anniversary. Below are the 3 reissues that the label presents now and which you can purchase here (for the North American market) and here (for the EU market).
1. “Fallout” double vinyl featuring bonus tracks
The original remix album, the second for FLA, came hot on the heels of the “Artificial Soldier” full-length. The band commissioned remixes by a who’s who of hot industrial and EBM talent, including Icon of Coil’s Sebastian R. Komor, Combichrist, Covenant, Portion Control, DJ? Acucrack, and more. Additional remixes from FLA’s circle were added by Greg Reely, Jeremy Inkel, and Dan Kearley. And the album is rounded out by 3 non-album tracks that appear here for the first time.
The limited edition record will be released on standard black vinyl (available here), and a limited edition half-half effect with white / toxic blue will also be pressed (available here). In case you want both versions, then you should place your order here. EU-orders can be placed right here.

2. “Re-Wind” double vinyl featuring bonus tracks
This first remix album was released as a stacked double-CD in 1998. “Re-Wind” was a 14-track release that featured the talents of Front 242, Collide, Tim Schuldt, Kalte Farben, Eat Static, Cydonia, and Finitribe on remix duties. An additional 7 remixes were executed by Front Line Assemmbly themselves, resulting in a 14-track document which is now available on double vinyl.
The limited edition record will be released on standard black vinyl (available here), and a limited edition yellow-black splatter version (available here). In case you want both versions, then you should place your order here. EU-orders can be placed right here.

3. “Artificial Soldier” double vinyl
Ten years ago, Front Line Assembly released “Artificial Soldier” on the dawn of their 20th year anniversary. This year marks 30 years of Front Line Assembly and finally sees this album available on vinyl.
