Welcome back to Weekly Wax!
This week, we have some highly anticipated reissues, like A Day To Remember‘s latest, Common Courtesy, and The Early November‘s three-disc magnum opus, The Mother, The Mechanic and The Path, and new releases from the likes of Real Friends, Vanna, and many more. However, Jack White takes the cake this week. The noted vinyl aficionado and Third Man Records founder has outdone himself with the Ultra LP version of his new album, Lazaretto. The album features hidden tracks under the center labels, concentric grooves, multiple playing speeds, and some other features that have never been tried on vinyl records before. It is truly a vinyl lover’s dream. Watch a video detailing the release right here.
Check out the rest of this week’s vinyl roundup after the break.
