The godfathers of Dance Pop, Heaven 17, are back with a brand new
album of UK synthfunk.

Going back to their DIY beginnings Heaven 17 got together with Angie
Brown and Billie Godfrey and recorded several tracks over the course
of 2001. The result of these studio sessions, their first studio
album in 8 years, was completed on September 11 2001 the day the New
York landscape and psyche was changed forever with the attack on the
twin towers.

The name of the album, BeforeAfter, and the artwork refer to this
brief moment in time that has had such a profound effect on so many
people.

Lead Singer Glenn Gregory puts it succinctly: "An album made with no
restrictions, no pressure, no time limits, no interference, no
prying ears. Just us, in a studio doing what we enjoy doing best.
Creating new Heaven 17 songs."

Heaven 17 was first formed in the early 1980s when the original line
of the Human League fell apart. Martyn Ware and Ian Marsh hooked up
with childhood friend Glenn Gregory and released their first classic
single "(We don't need this) Fascist Groove Thang." UK hits
like "Temptation" and " Come Live With Me" followed. The band also
hit the US dance charts with hits like "Let Me Go" and "Contenders."

Now they are back with a fresh yet timeless sound.
