Tears For Fears Expand 'The Seeds Of Love' For Deluxe Reissues

Tears For Fears have expanded their classic 1989 album "The Seeds Of Love" for special reissues that will be hitting stores on October 9th.

Fans will have the option of picking from various packages including a picture disc LP, a remastered vinyl LP, remastered deluxe 2 CDs, or a 4cd /blu0ray Super Deluxe Edition.

Roland Orzabal had this to say, "Out of all our albums, I'd probably rank it highest. I think it surprised a lot of people, a lot of our peers as well, people who maybe we were being compared to in the mid-Eighties."

Curt Smith added, "The tracks I liked then, I still like now. 'Woman in Chains,' 'Badman's Song,' 'Sowing the Seeds of Love,' and 'Advice For The Young At Heart' have all stuck around. We still play those live."

The super deluxe box set will include 22 unreleased tracks from demo sessions, live jams, studio sessions along with b-sides, and rare mixes. See the tracklisting below:
