Karl Wallinger is reissuing all five World Party studio albums on 180-gram vinyl between now and November, with each record boasting remastered sound, while the group’s final album — 2000’s Dumbing Up — will feature six extra tracks in its vinyl debut.

The series began with the reissue of 1986’s Private Revolution last week, though the discography is not being re-released in order. Next up is 1993’s Bang!, to be released on March 26, followed by Dumbing Up — a 2LP set in a gatefold sleeve — on May 28. The 1990 album Goodbye Jumbo will be reissued in October, followed by 1997’s Egyptology in November.

The reissues have been in the works for some time, with Wallinger discussing them with Billboard in 2018 — along with plans to record a new World Party album for release the following year. That new album, however, did not materialize, nor did Wallinger’s plans for a full-band tour in 2019.
