yeah, those RSD Limited/Regional releases (like B&C this year, and Pianos 7" a few years ago) are even more of a crapshoot than the standard RSD Exclusive, as your store may not have even been on the list to receive them.

 

Damn, well I appreciate the responses anyways. Maybe I'll get lucky

 

Record store day is cool for the savings in store. The RSD releases are terrible and it's like shopping at Black Friday. My one experience was really bad and wish I had just gone later in the day. Also the workers basically bragged about getting copies of stuff and keeping it for themselves. This girl camped out for he Deja release and the people just kept it for themselves.

 

Probably won't be participating this year, but I'm glad I did last year. Brian Fallon STILL hasn't released Georgia digitally and I'm not so sure he ever will.

 

Interested in these, will probably only get the bolded ones:

Animal Collective-Meeting of the Waters
Pink Floyd-Interstellar Overdrive
The Smiths-The Boy With The Thorn In His Side
Sunny Day Real Estate-The Rising Tide
The Sword-Low Country
Thrice-Sea Change
Space Jam
Blade Runner
Star Wars: A New Hope
Balance & Composure-slow heart
Poliça-Lipstick Stain/Still Counts
Coheed & Cambria-Good Apollo, I'm Burning Star IV
Gerard Way-Into The Cave We Wander

 

Definitely going for B&C and SDRE

 

From First To Last is releasing their first two records on vinyl. Release date is May 5th. Up for preorder on Amazon.

 

Finally picked up Alt-J’s This Is All Yours and Jimmy Eat World’s Bleed American today! Picking up the entire JEW catalog is one of my next moves, but it’s going to take some time.

 

So awesome.

The Space Jam soundtrack is getting a vinyl reissue for Record Store Day

 

Is there anyway to tell what type of variant is sold when buying through Amazon?

 

Occasionally there will be a product description which will tell you. If it's not there or in the title, you really can't know.

 

Generally no. Sometimes it will be under additional info and some people may tell you in the reviews. I always assume it's either black or the most widely available pressing of said record.

 

Hmm ok thanks. I'm just debating on whether I want to get the cheaper price that will probably come in black or if I want to spend the little extra for a colored one though the label.

 

I usually try to go through the band/label because I know more of the money is going toward continuing to put out music but unless it's a super cool variant (I like stuff that matches the album cover). If you're just looking to save yourself money (which I can't fault) Amazon is probably your best bet especially if you pay for prime.

 

20% Victory Records Webstore

 

Heck thats a great deal. $12 records is amazing.

 

Except its victory and they're garbage.

 

We Don't Need To Whisper on 180g [2x] black vinyl was delivered today. Very nice pressing. It sounds and looks great.

On the way/preordered:

Fear Before The March Of Flames - The Always Open Mouth [2xLP] (Red/Gold Splatter)
Richard Edwards - Lemon Cotton Candy Sunset [2xLP] (Lemon/Pink Swirl)
Panic! At The Disco - A Fever You Can't Sweat Out
From First To Last - Heroine
From First To Last - Dear Diary, My Teen Angst Has A Body Count
Gorillaz - Humanz [Limited Deluxe Edition Vinyl + Art Book]

 

For everyone that missed out on the Hot Topic variant:

Box Car Racer [LP][Reissue] https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XXKZK8C/?tag=absolutepunk-20

 

Will probably sound better as well, just hesitant to order from SRC considering how delayed they are with other releases...

 

That's why I shared an Amazon link instead of SRC.

 

Hurry up before they become $40.

 

My bad, thought this was an SRC pressing ha. I guess Geffen/Universal instead?

 

Yeah. Modern vinyl is suggesting that this is the consumer/retail version this album never got so probably in large numbers.

 

I've been going hard the past couple weeks with adding to my collection, at least by my standards:

Kevin Devine - Instigator (Red)
Bush - Sixteen Stone (Clear x2)
From Indian Lakes - Absent Sounds (Red Splash)
Manchester Orchestra - Hope
Taking Back Sunday - Where You Want To Be (Banana Mosh Pt. II)
Close Your Eyes - We Will Overcome (Blue Marble)
Foxing - Dealer (Clear)
Parkway Drive - Horizons (Translucent Blue)

Along with like 4 or 5 other 7"s as well
