French band Air‘s soundtrack to Sofia Coppola’s 1999 film The Virgin Suicides will be reissued as a limited edition five-disc super deluxe edition box set this June.

The album has been remastered and the box set will include the soundtrack pressed onto 180g red vinyl, a picture disc live album (previously unreleased and exclusive to the box), the Playground Love EP also pressed onto 180g red vinyl and two CDs. The CDs consist of the album, along with a couple of studio outtakes, and the aforementioned previously unreleased live album. Fans of nick-knacks will be pleased to hear that this comes with posters and a replica laminate VIP pass. A download card includes all the audio.

The original soundtrack will also be available as a single LP on 180-gram vinyl and of course as you might expect, the two-CD deluxe edition will also be widely available separately.

The Virgin Suicides will be reissued on 15 June 2015
