'Total Pop! - Deluxe Box' is set to be released via Rhino Records in the US on April 7. The three-CD, one-DVD package will include newly remastered versions of all of the band's singles throughout their three-decade career including 'Chains Of Love', 'A Little Respect' and 'Victim Of Love'.

It also includes a disc featuring 15 songs performed live by Vince Clarke and Andy Bell between 1987 and 2007 including 'Voulez-Vous', 'Am I Right?' and 'Heart Of Stone'.

The DVD contains BBC appearances the band recorded between 1986 and 2005, including their debut performance of 'Sometimes' on 'Top Of The Pops' in 1986.

On April 7, the band will also release a 'Pop!' remix album digitally, featuring remixes by Clarke, Manhattan Clique and Sweden's Sound Factory.
