Record Store Day is like Christmas for not only independent record stores, but vinyl collectors and music fans in general. With less and less places selling physical music, it’s almost a sacred experience to set foot into a record store, and the amount of cool, limited edition releases make your local store worthy of a pilgrimage. The full list of releases has come out, and there’s definitely some solid metal releases, and will be your first chance to hear a new Machine Head song. While you’ve heard about some of them before, there are some others that we’re hearing about for the first time. So mark April 19th on your calendars, and buy some records! Check out the following hard rock and metal releases that will be out, but you can view the list in its entirety here.
