Thomas Dolby's 1992 album is released on limited edition gold-coloured vinyl.

Dolby highlights his melodic tendencies on Astronauts & Heretics his fourth studio album. Containing more personal moments enhanced by his love for technology, which tracks as 'Cruel', featuring Eddi Reader, and 'Eastern Bloc (the sequel)' help listeners connect with bits of the past forwarded into the future.

Eddie Van Halen’s guitar skills can be heard on two tracks: 'Eastern Bloc' and 'Close But No Cigar' (the first single and Dolby's biggest UK hit since 'Hyperactive!').
