The annual, massive list of Record Store Day releases has arrived. The event, which recently named Post Malone as the 2025 ambassador, takes place at indie record shops on April 12.
The list, which includes over 300 titles, includes an official release of Post Malone’s Nirvana covers, which he performed on a livestream in 2020 during the pandemic. Pressed on vinyl for the first time, Post Malone Tribute To Nirvana features Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker, guitarist Nick Mack, and bassist Brian Lee.
In addition, “Fortnight,” Malone’s collaboration with Taylor Swift, will be released on exclusive 7″ white vinyl.
Several notable live albums will be released, from Gracie Abrams‘ Live From Radio City Music Hall to MJ Lenderman’s And The Wind (Live and Loose!) to Joni Mitchell’s Live 1976 — a 3-LP set culled from last year’s Archives, Vol. 4: The Asylum Years (1976-1980) – to Power To The People – Live At The One To One Concert, New York City, 1972, a four-song EP featuring tracks from John Lennon’s only post-Beatles solo concert.
To coincide with their highly-anticipated reunion, Oasis will drop Time Flies…1994 – 2009, their complete collection of singles released on vinyl for the first time since 2010. Waxahatchee will release two Tigers Blood bonus tracks (“Much Ado About Nothing” and “Mud“) as a 7” single, while the Killers will unleash their three-song set with Bruce Springsteen from Madison Square Garden in October 2022.
Other highlights include U2 and Brian Eno’s 30th anniversary release of Passengers’ Original Soundtracks 1 and Wu-Tang and Mathematics’ Black Samson, The Bastard Swordsman: Wu-Tang, The Saga Continues Collection. The latter is a numbered, limited-edition 2-LP set, and every album jacket features unique “1 of 1” cover art. Check out the full list of releases on Record Store Day’s website.
“Record Store Day is so important, and I really hope to do my part to keep it alive,” Malone said last month, when the event named him ambassador. “We love hitting local shops when we’re on the road, seeing all the crazy artwork… the whole energy in a record store is just super inspiring. I feel at home. It’s really an unexplainable feeling to hit up a shop and dig through crates, just see what grabs your eye. You can be looking for something super specific and end up finding something totally different. It’s the best. Keep supporting y’all and let’s keep records and these local shops going strong.”
