Record Store Day is coming up on April 22, bringing with it the usual list of exclusive releases and controversies about pressing plant delays. Now, the full list of 2023 exclusive releases has arrived.
Artists releasing RSD exclusives include Björk (a remix 12-inch), Blur (the first vinyl pressing of a B-sides compilation), the Rolling Stones (a colourful pressing of Beggars Banquet), Sigur Rós (a 10th anniversary repress of Kveikur), Wilco (an alternate version of Yankee Hotel Foxtrot titled Crosseyed Strangers), Ramones (outtakes and original mixes from Pleasant Dreams), Our Lady Peace (a best-of compilation), Chief Keef (the first vinyl pressing of Mansion Musick) and more.
There are also lots of live albums, including ones by the Black Keys, the 1975, Taylor Swift, DIIV, Van Halen, Nas, Pearl Jam and the Cure.
As for "RSD First" releases (which will subsequently get wider releases), April 22 will see the debut of releases from Beach House (an EP of Once Twice Melody outtakes), Broken Social Scene (a 20th anniversary repress of You Forgot It in People), Pixies (a live album from the Debaser reunion tour), and a repress of the collaborative EP by Björk and Dirty Projectors.
There will also be a few 3-inch record from the Doors for the RSD3 mini-turntable. Uh, cool I guess?
