Synthpop icons Pet Shop Boys are celebrating 30 years of Relentless with a reissue.

Available October 20 via Parlophone Records, the six-track collection was originally released as part of the limited-edition double album Very Relentless. It expanded the duo's fifth album, 1993's Very, which was met with critical acclaim and two Top 10 Singles ("Can You Forgive Her?" and a cover of Village People's "Go West"). 

The rarity was also then available as a standalone vinyl limited to 500 copies, but has not been treated to any kind of release since. It will now be available on exclusive 1LP yellow vinyl and CD.

"This album was an experiment for us 30 years ago with its six new extended dance tracks. We're very proud of it and delighted it's now getting the stand-alone release it deserves," the band said in a statement.

Last year, they teamed up with Soft Cell on "Purple Zone" and toured North America with New Order.

See the reissue tracklist below.

Relentless:

1. My Head Is Spinning
2. Forever in Love
3. KDX 125
