Hi 😀 Record Store Day takes place on April 18, and this year’s RSD lists were just released earlier this week (with the possibility of a few more titles being added along the way). You can look forward to a huge number of exciting releases this year from artists such as Bruce Springsteen, Ethel Cain, Pink Floyd, Madonna, David Bowie, Charli XCX, Black Sabbath, and many, many more. We’ve gathered everything into a handy overview for you below, so you can get ready for the big day celebrating vinyl. All releases will initially be sold exclusively in our physical store on the day itself. Any RSD overstock will be made available afterward (we don’t yet know the exact date and time for the RSD online sales, so keep an eye on our website and social media as we get closer). Among this week’s pre-order highlights is a massive box set for Black Sabbath fans - more specifically, a box dedicated to the Sabbath offshoot band Heaven & Hell, featuring Dio, Iommi, Butler & Appice. There’s also a new Madonna release in the Silver Collection series, a range of Alan Parsons Project half-speed masters… and much more! Dig into it all below 👇
# Heaven & Hell Breaking out of Heaven (2007-2009)
The ultimate collection of material from Ronnie James Dio’s final chapter alongside Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler, and Vinny Appice. The short-lived lineup of Sabbath members - now under the moniker Heaven & Hell - reunited in 2007 and went on to deliver a series of outstanding live performances and studio recordings through 2009. The Breaking Out of Heaven box set brings together the band’s only studio album, The Devil You Know (2009), along with two essential live documents: Live From Radio City Music Hall and Neon Nights: 30 Years of Heaven & Hell, the latter recorded at the Wacken Open Air festival just months before Dio’s passing in 2010. The box set will be available as a 7LP set (with many tracks making their vinyl debut) and as a 4CD/Blu-ray box, with the Blu-ray featuring concert films, band interviews, and more. Out March 27.

# Gorillaz The Mountain
The release date for the new Gorillaz album had long been set for March 20. Very unusually though, they have moved the date forward to February 27, meaning there’s now only a couple of weeks left before we can fully vibe to 15 brand-new tracks from Damon Albarn and his lineup of guest collaborators. So far, we’ve had a solid batch of previews from the album. Six tracks have been released, all generating strong buzz, especially the lead single “The Happy Dictator” (featuring Sparks) and the single “Damascus.” You can still secure a copy of the limited edition orange vinyl with a lenticular cover, which is only available at a few selected retailers worldwide. Out February 27.
