The Stranglers previous album, The Raven, had not been released in the US. IV contained, on side one, a selection of tracks from The Raven. Side Two contained the following tracks, which were previously unreleased on any Stranglers Album: "5 Minutes" & "Rok It To The Moon" (1978 UK single), "Vietnamerica" (which was later released as the B-side to the 1981 "Let Me Introduce You to The Family" UK single), "G.m.B.H" (an extended version of the 1980 UK single "Bear Cage", which was unavailable elsewhere) and "Who Wants the World?" (1980 UK single).

The original release also came with a free single containing "Choosey Susie" (from the 1977 UK single free with Rattus Norvegicus), "Straighten Out" (b-side to the 1977 UK Single "Something Better Change") plus "Ode to Joy / Do The European" (live Jean-Jacques Burnel solo tracks, unavailable elsewhere until the CD release of his first solo album Euroman Cometh), and "White Room", a Cream cover from the Nosferatu album by Hugh Cornwell & Robert Williams.
