NEW RECOIL TOUR DATES ANNOUNCED

‘A STRANGE HOUR’ COMES TO SOUTH AMERICA, NORTH AMERICA & CANADA

Alan Wilder, formerly of Depeche Mode and now recording as Recoil, has announced details of a brand new iPhone App. Available now, the Recoil app allows you to follow Alan’s activities and the fan’s thoughts & musings whilst Recoil is on the road or in the studio. As well as providing a hub for Recoil’s social networking, there is also access to photos, videos, audio and Alan’s concepts behind each of his albums.

The app is free and available now from the iTunes store - perfect for keeping in touch with all the latest news including up to the minute updates to this new tour schedule. After successful presentations of ‘A Strange Hour’ across Europe and the US – performances which marked the first time Recoil had ventured out of the studio - further dates have been announced in South America for November 2010, with more North American and Canadian dates to be added very soon. Alan & Paul Kendall are working on an updated set for the tour, so stay tuned to ‘selected.recoil.co.uk’ for further news.

Recoil Selected, a brand new selection of classic Recoil tracks, is out now. With a tracklisting chosen by Alan Wilder who explains: "The collection is made up of my personal favourites, remastered and edited together into what I consider a cohesive and total listening experience.” The album features a varied selection of vocalists including Diamanda Galás, Joe Richardson, Douglas McCarthy (Nitzer Ebb), Nicole Blackman, Samantha Coerbell, Toni Halliday (Curve) and Maggie Estep.

Recoil Selected is available to download and as 1CD and 2CD editions. Limited edition deluxe 4-disc box set and a vinyl edition have both now sold out. During his 14 years as a member of Depeche Mode, as well as being an accomplished musician, Alan really honed his skills in the studio. With his attention to detail, Wilder pushed the boundaries even within the restrictive climate of commercial pop. As an antidote to the demands of the Mode, his studio project Recoil was born in the mid-eighties. Two albums were released: ‘Hydrology’ (1988) and ‘Bloodline’ (1990) both giving an indication of his expanding horizons. After his departure from Depeche Mode in 1995, Wilder resurrected Recoil full-time and has since released ‘Unsound Methods’ (1997), ‘Liquid’ (2000) and ‘subHuman’ (2007).
