Tears for Fears will expand their classic album Songs From the Big Chair on November 11 with the release of a new deluxe edition in a variety of formats.

The Super Deluxe Edition of the album includes four-CDs including the original album, two-discs of edited and remixed versions of the songs and an album of unreleased songs.

Also in the set are two DVDs, one audio only with 5.1 and stereo mixes of the album and one video disc with a feature length documentary on the album, an interview with producer Chris Hughes, music videos and live performances.

The Super Deluxe Edition is filled out with a 30-page replica tour book and a 32-page booklet.

The album will also be offered as a two-CD set, single remastered disc of the album, a 180-gram heavyweight LP, a Pure Audio Blu-Ray edition and digital download.

Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith formed Tears for Fears in 1981, after finding inspiration in the new electronic movement. Their six studio albums have sold over 30 million copies worldwide and produced some of the most recognized songs in New Wave, which have gone on to be covered by New Found Glory, Paul Young, Gloria Gaynor, Michael Andrews and Gary Jules. The band continue to influence generations of new artists – Lorde recently put a dark spin on Everybody Wants to Rule the World for The Hunger Games film soundtrack, while Crystal Fighters recently recorded their own version of Change.

Tears for Fears are currently in the studio working on their first album in nearly a decade, with a release tentatively slated for 2015.
