Spirit | The 12" Singles, a collector's edition deluxe box set, contains seven 12" vinyl discs including custom replicas of the original three double 12" singles from Spirit (Depeche Mode's 14th studio album):

Where's the Revolution (originally released 3 February 2017, in advance of the album), Going Backwards (released 23 June 2017), and Cover Me (released 6 October 2017).

As a bonus for Depeche Mode fans, Spirit | The 12" Singles premieres a special seventh disc: the first-ever 12" vinyl pressing of the band's legendary Highline Sessions, recorded live in New York City on 3 August 2016.

The most complete recording of Depeche Mode's Highline Sessions ever released in any format, this five-song 12" vinyl single includes DM's galvanizing cover of David Bowie's "Heroes" (celebrating the anthem's 2017 40th anniversary) and two previously unreleased performances of songs from Spirit: So Much Love and Poison Heart.

Depeche Mode's Spirit | The 12" Singles comes in a numbered limited edition housed in a deluxe slipcase including seven 12" 180g vinyl discs, riveting artwork recontextualizing original album covers, a replica poster and download card.

Depeche Mode recorded their Spirit album from April through August 2016 at Sound Design in Santa Barbara, California and Jungle City in New York, working for the first time with producer James Ford.

Released through Columbia/Mute on 17 March 2017, Spirit was the last Depeche Mode studio album to feature founding member and keyboardist Andy Fletcher before his passing on 26 May 2022.

Spirit pushed Depeche Mode into unexpected new directions, the album's lyrical content directly addressing global societal issues with music hitting its emotional targets with laser precision, the band's personal concerns expressed in universal social commentary, more relevant today than ever.

Like previous album releases, Spirit expanded Depeche Mode's aesthetic vision and musical repertoire while continuing their tradition of issuing monumental 12" singles to supplement and complement their albums.

From their earliest days as a band, Depeche Mode have championed 12" vinyl, embracing the format's singular power and potential for innovation.

The 12" single allowed the band to explore new sonic possibilities while the tactile real-world beauty of physical packaging gave Depeche Mode room to develop their consistently sophisticated and commanding design aesthetic.

Depeche Mode have used their singles discography as a means of offering fans the opportunity to enjoy left field remixes, rare B-sides, standout concert performances and other exclusives.

Each box set in the series contains the singles from an individual Depeche Mode album pressed on audiophile-quality 12" vinyl. The artwork for the exterior of each of the box sets draws on iconography inspired by the original releases, while the vinyl sleeves themselves feature the original single artwork.

Spirit | The 12" Singles is chronologically the 14th volume in Depeche Mode 12" Singles Series and the first to include a bonus 12" vinyl disc premiering previously unreleased tracks
