We just made a TON of new pre-orders live on the pre-orders section of the site. Like a lot… we currently have almost 300 pre-orders going at the moment! Too much, I know, but feel free to scroll through anyway. But first I thought I’d hit you with some highlights.
At the top of the list for me has gotta be the first reissue of Flipper’s first album Generic Flipper in quite some time (at least 15 years by my count). Poison Ruin has a new one coming soon and we have both the chainmail and swamp green vinyl variants available. This is an all-time favorite for me, and it’s on Superior Viaduct Records so you know they’ll do a great job. From Talking Heads we have a wider release of the collection of very early demo and live material that they released previously on Record Store Day. Two Alkaline Trio titles—Good Mourning and Crimson—are coming back into print in reasonably-priced standard versions. Wharf Cat Records is releasing a collection of material by the great, super underrated Boston-area 70s punk band La Peste, and one of NOFX’s most well-regarded records, the single-song opus The Decline, is coming back into print. The latest RSD Essentials release is a 35th anniversary pressing of the Smashing Pumpkins’ debut Gish, with the original cover art rather than the metallic version we have been stocking for the past few years.
We have a few Rhino Hi-Fi reissues coming in if you need to hear some of your favorites in the highest fidelity possible, including Devo’s debut as well as T Rex’s Electric Warrior and Alice Cooper’s Love It to Death. Florida death metal band Massacre’s debut is getting a new pressing on Earache, while John Dwyer’s synth-drenched product Damaged Bug has a new album available (we have both the pink and standard black pressings available).
A few other quick highlights that might be interesting. Jazz group Irreversible Entanglements has a new album out soon. Raleigh legends Corrosion of Conformity will muddy their legacy once again this spring, but maybe you’re into it? We had some Sacrilege in the last update, but we have some more for you with Radiation Records compiling the band’s excellent early demo material. Morbid Angel re-releases a rare 90s EP that features some remixes by the industrial group Laibach. Dog Faced Hermans are reissuing Everyday Timebomb, which is very cool… I hope there’s more to come, because I don’t know if you’ve checked, but Dog Faced Hermans records have gotten VERY expensive on the used market. Black metal / war metal vets Revenge have a new one on Season of Mist. Napalm Death and Melvins have a collaborative album that got a limited release for their tour, but is now becoming more widely available.
Those are some of the highights, but there’s a LOT more in the pre-orders section, including some very cool stuff I didn’t have time or space to mention here. So head over and have a browse!
