The compilation features music from the group’s earlier releases and studio albums.

New wave band Japan are reissuing their Exorcising Ghosts compilation on half-speed vinyl, via UMC this October.

Originally released in 1984, the 2xLP compilation features some of their early releases on Hansa Records, as well as tracks from the band’s Gentlemen Take Polaroids and Tin Drum albums.

The reissue has been remastered at half speed at London’s Abbey Road Studios, which is considered to be the most accurate way to cut a record.
