Limited double 180 gram vinyl LP pressing includes four bonus tracks on the second slab of vinyl. Big Thing is the fifth album by Duran Duran, released worldwide in 1988. It reached #15 in the UK and #24 in the US. In 1988, the musical climate was changing, veering to a more dance-based groove. Duran Duran were known primarily as an early '80s new wave synth-pop act, and the band was sitting at a career crossroads; Big Thing was their stab at maintaining mainstream popularity. Turning to more synth- and bass-heavy grooves than their previous efforts, Big Thing was seen by many as the band's house music album. Tracks like the first single I Don't Want Your Love, the title track, and the album's second single All She Wants Is cemented the band's more aggressive dance angle.
