Into the Gap by Thompson Twins is an era-defining album of the '80s. This 40th anniversary reissue is the most comprehensive reissue of this album ever, remastered at Abbey Road Studios and compiled with the full blessing of all three band members from the classic lineup.

Into the Gap stands as one of the band's most successful albums, emblematic of the synth-pop era's peak. The album features hit singles like "Hold Me Now," "Doctor! Doctor!," and "You Take Me Up," which highlighted the band's knack for creating catchy, synth-driven pop tunes. At the time, Thompson Twins were a leading force in the new wave movement, with Into the Gap reaching number one on the U.K. Albums Chart and selling over 1 million copies in the U.S. The album's success was bolstered by the rise of MTV, where the band's visually striking music videos played a crucial role in their global appeal. Into the Gap encapsulated the spirit of 1980s pop culture, combining innovative sound with a strong visual identity, making it a defining record of the decade.
