Black Friday Record Store Day
The 2024 Record Store Day Black Friday list of records is live! It's on the Record Store Day Official site. We are taking requests off this list so that we can better tailor (not to Taylor, she doesn't have a RSD release this time) our order to our customers. So while we cannot hold, save, or set aside (yes all the words mean the same thing, lol) any record, we can bump up our order to maybe get a few extra copies in-house. A request DOES NOT guarantee you a copy so don't get salty if you say you *requested* a vinyl and you show up at 3pm (when we open at 8am) and wonder why it's not here. Yes that happened last spring.
Here is the RSDBF List: Record Store Day Black Friday 2024
Record Store Day Black Friday occurs on Black Friday (who knew?!?!) which is the day after Thanksgiving and on November 29th 2024. We'll open promptly at 8am that day and it's first come, first serve. There is a modest line for RSDBF but not crazy like the April RSD. Thanks for your biz, get those requests in and we'll see you on RSDBF!!
OK Computer - Radiohead
- Label: Capital
Forever forging their own rock template this is Radiohead's opus "OK Computer". Includes "Airbag", "Karma Police", and "Paranoid Android". Hidden beneath some of the fantastic production of Radiohead's work are some of the best melodies you will ever hear. Bear witness to "No Surprises" as evidence. Consistently ranked by critics, fans, polls, as one of the 1990's finest releases. We know you have it on CD, burned or otherwise, we think it's high time you got this on vinyl. You won't regret it.
Nevermind - Nirvana
- Label: Sub Pop - Geffen
Was this the advent of grunge or was it the end of really bad hair metal? You decide. This record turned the music world on it's end, turned it upside down, chewed it up, spit it out, and then said, "Here we are . . . now entertain us". This remaster was ranked #1 on Spin's 90 Greatest Albums of the 1990's and #17 on Rolling Stones 800 Greatest Albums of all Time. 180g vinyl.
Rocket to Russia - Ramones
- Label: Sire Records
Rocket to Russia is the third studio album by the American punk rock band The Ramones, and was released on November 4, 1977, through Sire Records. It's origins date back to the summer of 1977, when "Sheena Is a Punk Rocker" was released as a single. That summer was known as the peak of the punk rock genre since many punk bands were offered recording contracts. The album's recording began in August 1977, and the band had a considerably larger budget with Sire allowing them $25,000 and $30,000; much of this money went toward the album's production rather than recording.
Led Zeppelin III - Led Zeppelin
- Label: Atlantic
Ride the Lightning - Metallica
- Label: Blackened
A beast of a reissue from Metallica! Includes Fight Fire with Fire, Ride the Lightning, Fade to Black, Escape, Creeping Death, and well, you know all the song titles.

Sciences - Sleep
- Label: Third Man Records
Third Man Records release of Sleep's The Sciences. Gatefold set on a 2 record set that includes 6 hard rockin' songs, The Sciences, Sonic Titan, Giza Butler, and three others. Here is what RealClearLife has to say, "...it's possibly the most fascinating, focused, and intense metal album since Funhouse by the Stooges." And then when you thought Pitchfork only reviewed records by fey indie bands, they come up with this whopper to Sleep's genius, "a twin ode to volume and weed that makes everything that great about Sleep even better."
Kids See Ghosts - Kids See Ghosts
- Label: Good Music/Def Jam
Studio debut from Kid Cudi and Kanye West that was released in June of 2018. This seven song record includes Feel the Love, Fire, 4th Dimension (featuring Louis Prima) Cudi Montage.

Born to Die - Lana Del Rey
- Label: Polydor Records

Cutouts - The Smile
- Label: XL Recordings
Thom and Jonny from Radiohead are back at it as their alters The Smile. Great 2024 release and it's gonna be a hot ticket, literally, if they tour and this record itself will go quick. Get one before they go out of print! There's the indie version (which we have at this writing 10/8/24) but you know full well those will be gone soon as will the regular black vinyl release.
Short n Sweet - Sabrina Carpenter
- Label: Island Records
Short n’ Sweet showcases the scintillating spirit of Sabrina Carpenter, the pocket-sized popstar with a larger than life artistic presence. One gold album & multiple platinum singles later, it’s no wonder that “Espresso,” the debut single from the album, has it all: lyrics that make you giggle and blush and songwriting that makes you wish you’d thought of it first.
Bewitched the Goddess Edition - Laufey

2024 release "Bewitched the Goddess Edition" by Laufey. The hit performer of Pitchfork 2024 and also had a hot RSD release in 2024 as well!

A fine looking thick box of an album cover it'll look great on your cube record shelves. 18 tracks that include 4 bonus songs and wait, that's not all! A booklet too!
Manning Fireworks - MJ Lenderman
- Label: ANTI-records
If you like jangly guitar, a little pedal steel with your alt-country, and a dose of slacker delivery vocals, then MJ Lenderman may be the one for you! A great release for 2024 and has Wednesday's Karly Hartzman on vocals on a few songs. Includes the title track, Rip Torn, On My Knees, Joker Lips, and Wristwatch, which they performed on Jimmy Fallon's show in Sept of 2024.

Help! - The Beatles
- Label: Parlophone Records
The 2012 vinyl reissue from The Beatles. These LPs are the British Parlophone releases as The Beatles intended them in these song sequences.

Pinkerton - Weezer
- Label: Geffen Records
The second release from Weezer and originally released in 1996. A cool little factoid says that Rivers Coumo wrote most of the songs between semesters while still at Harvard University. Produced by Weezer themselves (another cool Fun Fact is that The Cars Ric Ocasek produced their first record) this record includes El Scorcho, The Good Life, Pink Triangle, Falling For You, Getchoo, and others. "Pinkerton" didn't quite meet sales expectations the band or label had but was a critical success and has often been named as one of the best albums of the 1990s and even one of the best of all time.
When the Pawn . . . - Fiona Apple
- Label: Sony Legacy Records
The amazing and iconic second release from Fiona Apple, "When the Pawn . . . " The elipse points indicate that the original title was a 90-word something poem album title. Originally released in 1999, this record includes Paper Bag, Fast As You Can, I Know, and others. Widely considered an all-time classic.
Memoir of a Sparklemuffin - Suki Waterhouse
- Label: Sub Pop Records
A great summary of Suki and this record via a bio from our distro, "Suki Waterhouse's music sounds like a collage of her inspirations, experiences, and emotions stitched together by honeyed vocal delivery, bright-eyed melodies, and evocative storytelling. It doubles as a mirror image of her life as a consummate creative, artist, actress, model, and mother, yet it also breaks the glass to unveil raw truth. She leans on an ever-evolving sonic palette to convey what she's feeling-whether it be folky Americana, nineties alternative, turn-of-the-century indie, or handcrafted otherworldly pop."
Evermore - Taylor Swift
- Label: Republic Records
2021 vinyl release from Taylor Swift, which features Willow, Gold Rush, Ivy, Closure, Coney Island (with The National), No body No Crime (with Haim), and others. On two discs.

Tim - The Replacements
- Label: Sire
Where do we start? The Replacements major label debut is one of Rediscover Records favorite bands of all time. Forget all that 80's music pap, playlists, and retro stations, this is the where the s*** hits the fans (to borrow a previous releases title). Stocked with great songs like "Bastards of Young", "Waitress In the Sky", "Kiss Me on the Bus", "Here Comes A Regular", ah heck, just list the whole record. It makes many people's "Desert Island Disc". Buy it. What once was unthinkable is now a reality! The Paul and Tommy have reformed as the Replacements and are performing at Riot Fest in the fall of 2013! Catch 'em live in Chicago, Denver, or Toronto! EDIT (6/18/2019): What a time to be alive. When the Replacements reconvened even for just that brief time.
