A Certain Ratio turn 40 this year and will mark the milestone with a career spanning boxset. ACR:BOX collects material from 1979 - 2019 -- well known singles/classics along with 20 previously unreleased tracks. The set will be released on a variety of formats: limited edition 7 LP colored vinyl set (only 1000 copies available), 4CD set, and digital download. All formats will be released on May 3rd. Pre-order here.

Along with the ACR:BOX announcement A Certain Ratio premiered one of the previously unreleased tracks; the song "W.S.L.U." is a brand new acoustic version of "Won't Stop Loving You," and is available to stream below.

A Certain Ratio released their debut single "All Night Party" in September of 1979. Not only was the single their debut single, it was the first single released by Factory Records (Factory had released a few compilations by that point, but "All Night Party" was the first single to be released by Factory).
