NEW DEF LEPPARD “BEST OF” COMPILATION TO HIT STORES IN OCTOBER

You may have heard the rumors already, so let’s come clean and give you some facts: Island/Def Jam and Universal/Mercury will be releasing a new Def Leppard compilation album in October, titled “BEST OF DEF LEPPARD”; an updated ‘replacement’ version of the band’s previous Greatest Hits compilation “VAULT”, which was originally released in 1995. In North America, the new release will be called “SUPER VAULT”. The new compilation will be available in various different formats. For example, the tracklisting of the North American version will be different than the UK/European version, and on some markets a limited edition double CD will be released, including a brand new Def Leppard version of a classic hit song from the 60s. Furthermore, a DVD of “BEST OF DEF LEPPARD” will also be available, containing some 30 promo videos from 1983-2002.

At this time, we are unable to give you the finalized tracklistings, exact release dates or any other details, as they are not fully confirmed yet. Also, keep in mind that all information stated above is still subject to change. For now, we’ll leave you with a little teaser of…..well, you can probably guess what it is (or what it could be)! Keep checking DEFLEPPARD.com for more details to be announced in the next couple of days!
