Demons To Diamonds Album Cover
Visage are pleased to reveal the artwork for Demons To Diamonds The artwork is by a very close long term friend of Steve, Rude George. (Yes it is who you think it is)
What a talented chap he is. It renews and re-affirms their close bond which goes back to 1979.
Demons To Diamonds is the fifth and final studio album by Visage. Steve Strange was working on the album prior to his untimely death in Feb 2015. The 10 track album is released on November 6th 2015 and features collaborations with Didier Marouani (Of Space Magic Fly fame) and Mick Macneil (Ex Simple Minds).
All Royalties from the album will be donated to the Steve Strange Statue appeal launched today.
Please share this.

For all those asking about other tracks and unreleased material. There are no more unreleased Visage completed, original recordings. There are about 4-6 songs in various stages of completion from 2015 but they were never fully recorded (Firedogs, Elysium, Hearbleed, Kings Of The World) and the EMI demos from 1978.
For those requesting remixes and re-masters from the 1980 to 1984 period these are very complicated to licence and release because of Polydor / Universal licencing procedures. Sorry. We will keep trying. A full career, all-encompassing box set is a long term ambition. If there is enough interest it will happen one day.
There is an fairly-finished, unreleased Steve Strange album which may or may not be completed and released (depending on Steves Family wishes). It is very different in tone to the pensive & slightly dark Visage sound (think Pet Shop Boys meets The Kinks meets Divine meets tongue-in-cheek Soft Cell).
There is the possibility of Visage remixes in the future. For example, back in 2011 we were talking to Martin Rushent (RIP) about a Visage Unlimited Orchestra project. But no more NEW Visage. Steve Strange was Visage, RIP. 1978 to 2015.

An account by one of the original writers (Chris Payne) about how it was written and recorded "As it's 40 years since the initial recording of Fade to Grey I thought I would make a very simple un-edited film about how it was originally written and recorded. I can only verify the time i spent with Billy and Cedric laying down the instrumental version at Martin Rushent's Genetic studios. So, although this is a totally accurate account of what happened, I have no idea about the events afterwards when Midge Ure composed the melody and lyrics and recorded the vocals of Steve Strange before it was released as a single" CJPayne September 2019
