Wilco, MGMT Prep Record Store Day Releases
By Travis Woods
Vinyl fans it is time to rejoice–Record Store Day is upon us tomorrow, that special day when our favorite artists release a dizzying array of obscure or unreleased material on vinyl for their hardcore fans and record fetishists.
Rolling Stone took time out from obsessing/ cultishly worshiping (with goat sacrifices and everything!) every retirement-age rock star within spitting distance to list a few late, but very exciting, additions to Record Store Day release lineup:
Wilco will offer up their live album Kicking Television as a deluxe vinyl box set complete with four LPs, eight extra tracks not on the original release and a bonus CD. Only 1,000 of the reissued Kicking Television will be made, so make sure to be first in line this Saturday if you want one of those… MGMT will release their 12-minute Congratulations track “Siberian Breaks” as a 12” single with an etched second side and Hole will make available “Skinny Little Bitch” and another new track off of Nobody’s Daughter on 10″ white vinyl.
Also announced was the fact that beloved Britpoppers and forever-better-than-Oasis rockers Blur will release their first single since 2003′s Think Tank on Record Store Day, which is enough to make my Britpop fanboy head explode.
What do you think of these Record Store Day releases?
