A new Human League vinyl box set called The Virgin Years will be issued in October.

This 5LP box set contains The Human League's albums from their time with Virgin Records and all records come in vinyl colors chosen by the band, and in tip-on jackets. All LPs come in a sturdy box with a poster. The four albums are Dare (1981), Hysteria (1984), Crash (1988) and Romantic? (1990) — plus the extended EP Fascination, all pressed on 180-gram colored vinyl.

Dare is on turquoise vinyl, Fascination is on transparent lime vinyl, Hysteria is on yellow vinyl, Crash is on transparent red vinyl, and Romantic? is on crystal clear vinyl.

The Human League signed to Virgin Records in 1979 and attained widespread commercial success with their third album Dare in 1981. The album contained four hit singles, including the U.K./U.S. No. 1 hit "Don't You Want Me."

Super Deluxe Edition.com has a preview unboxing video of The Virgin Years; watch above.

Representing the shimmering musical evolution of one of British synth-pop's greatest ever bands The Virgin Years take a journey from the hit-packed behemoth that was the mighty Dare to the mature late-classic Romantic? via the glorious miscellany of Fascination, the eclectic, urgent Hysteria, and the electric-soul of the Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis-produced Crash.
