Welcome to the first Under The Gun Review Weekly Wax vinyl roundup. In this feature, we’ll be compiling links to great represses, new releases, and news from around the vinyl community.
This was a big week for nostalgia-inducing reissues, with preorders going up for albums by Something Corporate, Sugarcult, and Mayday Parade. This is great if you’re slowly working on converting your old CD collection to vinyl even if it’s a little rough on the wallet. Speaking of rough on the wallet, the Black Friday edition of Record Store Day is coming up in less than a week. As usual, there will a ton of cool releases available exclusively at independent record stores if you’re willing to brave the cold and the lines. Check out the full list of titles right here. If you’d rather stay in, sales have started popping up on various labels’ online stores, and more will no doubt surface throughout the week. In the meantime, check out the full roundup of vinyl news after the break.
