The legendary new wave and dance-punk band The B-52's have announced a box set featuring the vast majority of their discography. The Warner Reprise Years vinyl box set will be available on June 20 in celebration of Pride Month. Additionally, an 8xCD set will be released the same day.
The records will be pressed on colored wax – The B-52’s (yellow), Wild Planet (red), Mesopotamia (blue), Party Mix! (green), Whammy! (smokey), Bouncing Off the Satellites (pink), Cosmic Thing (orange), and Good Stuff (purple), issued as a double LP.

Spanning from 1979 to 1992, the set features every major release from the band, except 2008's Funplex, their last studio album. Five of the albums in this set have been certified gold or higher by the RIAA, including Cosmic Thing (4x Platinum), their self-titled debut (Platinum), Wild Planet, Whammy!, and the GRAMMY®-nominated Good Stuff (Gold).
The collection features every major hit the band ever had, including "Rock Lobster", "Love Shack", "Private Idaho", "Roam", and more.
