Record Store Day falls on April 19 this year (instead of last year's appropriate but at times prohibitive 4/20), and the list of releases has been announced for your salivating pleasure. While we told you yesterday about a particular Merchandise/Milk Music/Destruction Unit split, the huge lineup of special edition and collectors vinyl and cassettes will only further have you in awe.
As Pitchfork reports, the long list includes Tame Impala, LCD Soundsystem, the Flaming Lips, Joy Division, Oneohtrix Point Never, Veruca Salt, Coldplay, Nirvana, Notorious B.I.G., Oasis, R.E.M., Life Without Buildings, Bruce Springsteen, Thee Oh Sees, the Notwist, David Bowie, Dinosaur Jr., Foals, Green Day, Pissed Jeans, Camera Obscura, Chad VanGaalen, Mudhoney, Eric B. and Rakim, Heavens to Betsy, Suede, Shlohmo, the Dodos, of Montreal, Man Man, Pinback, Atmosphere, Chvrches, Death Cab for Cutie, Broken Bells, Conor Oberst, OFF!, David Lynch, Disclosure, Haim, Little Dragon, Hamilton Leithauser, Huand, but the full lineup of releases can be caught at Record Store Day's homepage.
And don't forget that Chuck D is your 2014 RSD ambassador, a title we still aren't really sure on its meaning.
