1988 erschien Suicides drittes Album „A Way Of Life“. Gute 10 Jahre nach dem an Einfluss kaum zu überschätzenden Debüt, das Alan Vega und Martin Rev 1977 veröffentlichten, enthält das von Ric Ocasek produzierte Werk starke Tracks, wie etwa die obligatorische Ballade „Surrender“ („the perfect prom theme for Twin Peaks High“, wie in einer Rezension zu lesen war), das apokalyptische „Rain Of Ruin“ oder den Rockabilly-Elektro-Hybrid „Jukebox Baby 96“. Nun wird das Album über BMG/Mute mit Bonustracks wiederveröffentlicht.
„This anniversary edition is available on Limited Edition Transparent Blue Vinyl, CD as well as Digital and sees the album fully remastered by Denis Blackham (Skye Mastering). Featured on each format are bonus tracks ‘Heat Beat’ and a newly unearthed live cover of Bruce Springsteen’s ‘Born in the USA’. Three other previously unreleased recordings are featured exclusively on the CD & Digital versions.“
