  Gary Numan's second studio album TELEKON was released in 1980 and was his third successive #1 album in the UK. Gary refers to this album, along with its two predecessors, Tubeway Army's Replicas and his debut solo album The Pleasure Principle, as the “machine” phase of his career. While it was hard to follow up the previous releases, Telekon proved to be hugely influential. Unlike its predecessors, Telekon had plenty of guitars, along with strings and lush synthesizer textures. Trent Reznor claimed to have listened to it every day during the making of Pretty Hate Machine.

  On December 12th, we will release a Deluxe Expanded Edition double rainbow sparkle LP of Telekon with four unreleased tracks, one of which is a never-before-heard Gary Numan song from the album sessions titled “Like A B-Film”. This deluxe edition also contains a replica of the original 1980 Telekon 12-page tour booklet.
