Def Leppard are celebrating their first-ever Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame nomination in style by announcing THREE new releases.

A new greatest hits collection is on its way titled The Story So Far: The Best Of which will drop on November 30. The double disc set will feature 35 tracks – including their cover of Depeche Mode classic Personal Jesus.

Also arriving on November 30 is Hysteria: The Singles – a limited edition 10-disc vinyl box set featuring the smash hits Pour Some Sugar On Me, Animal, Love Bites, Hysteria, Rocket and Armageddon It, along with two bonus singles Excitable/Run Riot and Love And Affection/Don’t Shoot The Shotgun.

The package’s cover art is made up of all 10 of the singles' sleeves, including the Spanish Animal cover, plus a booklet with a full discography and an introduction written by Def Lep frontman Joe Elliott.

And is if that wasn’t enough Def Leppard news for one day, the band have got into the Christmas spirit early and released We All Need Christmas. Listen to it below.

The Sheffield heroes will return home in December for a fun of UK shows centred around the Hysteria album. Find out more on our Def Leppard tour page.
