Record Store Day 2016: The Unconfirmed List of Exclusives

BY Exclaim! StaffPublished Feb 18, 2016

UPDATE (03/08, 2:45 p.m.): The full, official list of Record Store Day exclusives is available now here.

Though we're still trapped in the throes of winter, springtime is on the horizon. That means there will be morning dew, blooming flowers and, of course, the return of Record Store Day. We know that the annual vinyl celebration will return once again this April, and now we may have some idea of what to expect from this year's batch of exclusive releases.

While this is certainly a rumour-based and unconfirmed post, some record nerds over at the Vinyl Collective message board [via Riff You] appear to have uncovered a list of many of the exclusives set for release on RSD.

Again, these releases are in no way confirmed, but the list is far from ridiculous, offering a mix of mainstream releases and indie highlights.

Among the exciting potential releases are a Best Coast B-sides 7-inch, a reissue of David Bowie's I Dig Everything: The Pye Years, a brand new Hot Hot Heat single, a Shaggs 7-inch and a handful of releases from legendary soundtrack group Goblin.

Other interesting soundtrack releases include music from The Guest, John Wick and The Ninth Gate, among others.

Further, the list suggests we will be getting a Justin Bieber Purpose picture disc, a Five Finger Death Punch double-LP release and a Weeknd remix 12-inch featuring Eminem and Nicki Minaj.

UPDATE (02/18, 12 p.m.): Today marks our first substantial update to our list of upcoming RSD 2016 exclusives. In today's add, we have titles by the likes of Lil Wayne, John Frusciante, Ennio Morricone, Lydia Lunch & Marc Hurtado, Piero Umiliani, Stelvio Cipriani, Sven Libaek, and Jean-Claude Vannier. You can see all the newly updated titles below, and we'll be adding more as the big day approaches.

UPDATE (03/02, 4 p.m.): We now have another fresh batch of additions, including releases from Lush, NOFX, Blonde Redhead, Johnny Cash and more. You can see all the new adds below, and thanks to Modern Vinyl for the tip on several of these.

You can check out the rumoured Record Store Day releases below. Record Store Day takes place on April 16.
