The newly-remastered album will feature nine demo tracks from the album recording sessions, three new b-sides, eight live recordings, a cover of the Carpenters' "(They Long to Be) Close to You", and a remix of "Zombie" by The Orb.
The reissue will additionally include the 13 tracks from the original album and previously unseen photographs from the album photo session.
Cranberries' archivist Eoin Devereux has also penned a history on the album "No Need to Argue" which is included in the reissue.
The album was a massively successful follow-up to the band's debut album "Everybody Else is Doing it, So Why Can't We?" and includes the Cranberries' best-known song - "Zombie."
The song is known the world over and recently became the first Irish song to break the one billion views barrier on YouTube.
Set during the Troubles, the protests song condemns the IRA after the Warrington bombings killed two small children in England in 1993.
