cryptie66 40 years ago I found them or they found me. Since their music caught me more and more: It's the sound, the atmosphere, their uniqueness. Many unforgettable songs here: Belief, Heaven is Waiting, Hide, Hold on, Red Light, Somewhere, The Hurt (and I love the Album VI), but my favourite is Clock. Wonder what Steve R. is doing... Thank you for having been/being The Danse Society. Favorite track: Clock.

absinthefaery A treasure chest of dark sonic gems. Favorite track: Angel.

Brian So many great songs. Such a great band. It hits all the tones I want to hear. So hard to pick my favorite song. Belief, Angel, Heaven is Waiting. They don't have a bad song on this entire album. Favorite track: Sunset Gun.

Jack music Life ♠️ Happy Forties my Angels ! Favorite track: Angel.

stevethomasuk3 Wow, how I loved the Danse Society in the 80’s. When they reformed in 2010/11, it was a very exciting prospect. The first “new phase” track to circulate on You Tube circa 2011 at the time was “Towers” which featured the original and quite enigmatic lead singer Steve Rawlings on vocals. And it was superb. The new female singer, Maeth, initially spearheaded some quite good tracks on the first two reformed albums - including “Into The Red” not included on this comp though.
Favorite track: Hold On (to what you've got).

about

AZ IF it's been a whole 40 years! am I really that old? well, here are 40 tracks, ones you may have heard before - and a couple you wont have - that span the 40 years and all the albums and most of the singles! We couldn't squeeze every favourite on this album but I think we got most of them - hope yours is on but if not maybe you'll discover a new one. The fact we are still going producing music is down to you and your support for which I personally am eternally grateful - I love you all <3
Paul Nash (guitarist and founder member)

It's uncanny just how good Actors is at emulating that Post-Punk synth sound from my younger days. Each listen just gets better and better. I feel slightly ashamed for not having heard this album until a few short days ago. modestwriggles

I love this one! The message means a lot to me since I lost my uncle a few years back and it embodies exactly how I felt and still feel at times. Not to mention the bass in the beginning gives me the good kind of chills, hell yeah! gothictonic

The End Is the Beginning
