NEW ARRIVALS for RECORD STORE DAY 4/18/2009 ................................................................... Akron/Family - Everyone is Guilty 7" (Dead Oceans) ................................................................... "Everyone is Guilty" is the first single from Akron/Family's upcoming May 5th full-length release, Set 'Em Wild, Set 'Em Free. Featuring album opener "Everyone is Guilty" along with non-album b-side "Total Destruction". Opening with a groove unlike anything Akron/Family have ever laid to tape, this single kicks off a new chapter for the band. The percussive thunder and anthemic electric guitars make a bold statement, touching on everything from Fela Kuti to Sly and the Family Stone in under six psychedelic minutes. This is not the Akron/Family you think you know. Andrew Bird / Loney Dear split 7" (Polyvinyl) ................................................................... Andrew Bird did a tour with Loney Dear and they've put together a very interesting split 7". This release is a limited edition of 1000, on black vinyl with hand silk screened covers. This split 7" has Andrew Bird covering Loney Dear, and (you guessed it) Loney Dear covering Andrew Bird. Black Kids - Wizard of Ahhhs 10" (Sony) ................................................................... In celebration of Record Store Day on April 18th, Black Kids are set to release a limited-edition 10" that includes four original demos from their much lauded 2007 EP Wizard of Ahhhs. Black Moth Super Rainbow - Born on a Day 7" (Graveface) ................................................................... Two tracks from the forthcoming studio recorded album, Eating Us. Side A is the first single from the record, Born on a Day the Sun Didn't Rise and Side B is a demo of that same song. It comes on a solid bright orangish red 7 inch and is limited to 500 copies. Blitzen Trapper - War is Placebo 7" (Sub Pop) ................................................................... Two previously unreleased tracks from the "Furr" sessions. Limited edition of 1500. Colored vinyl. Die-cut sleeve. Limited to 1000 Booker T - Warped Sister 7" (Anti) ................................................................... Booker T. Jones is releasing a two song 7" with studio tracks - "Warped Sister" and "Reunion Time" — from his upcoming ANTI debut Potato Hole, his first solo album in over 20 years featuring backing from the Drive-By Truckers, guitar by Neil Young and Booker T's unmistakable Hammond B3 organ. Camera Obscura - French Navy 7" (4AD) ................................................................... The opening track from My Maudlin Career (which comes out Tuesday) is effectively their girl-group number, complete with schmaltzy strings and tambourine-enhanced Motown drumming. It's backed with an even better non-album track, "The World Is Full of Strangers", on which Camera Obscura loosen up the beat a little and Traceyanne Campbell sings as if she's had a few and is ready to speak her mind now. Brandi Carlile - Downpour 7" (Sony) ................................................................... This 7" features a brand new demo from Brandi Carlile's new studio album, coming Fall 2009, as well as a live favorite. The new track is called "A Promise To Keep". The other track, "Downpour," was recorded live in Boston last year. Brandi created this piece especially for Record Store Day to show her support for local indie record stores. Leonard Cohen - The Future / Suzanne (live) 7" (Sony) ................................................................... Leonard Cohen, in the middle of a triumphant sold-out tour of the US, will release these two tracks taken from his brand new Live In London release. Side A: "The Future" from Live In London - Side B: "Suzanne" from Live In London Cold War Kids - Live at Fingerprints CDEP ................................................................... Recorded live at an instore at Fingerprints Music. Five track: 1/ Against Privacy, 2/ Every Man I Fall For, 3/ I've Seen Enough, 4/ Expensive Tastes, 5/ Relief Cursive / Ladyfinger split 10" picture disc (Saddle Creek) ................................................................... Limited edition split 10" picture disc featuring one album track and one previously unreleased track from each band. Cursive: 01. From the Hips 3:55 (from Mama, I'm Swollen) 02. Universal Shrug 2:02 (previously unreleased) Ladyfinger (ne) 01. Little Things 3:53 (from Dusk) 02. Old News 3:17 (previously unreleased) Dead Weather - Hang You From the Heavens 7" (Third Man) ................................................................... Jack White's new band! The debut release from both the Dead Weather and Third Man Records is two songs of dark, mysterious rock and roll with a violent edge. Alison Mosshart's vocals coupled with Dean Fertita's slashing guitar work wreak havoc on top of Jack White's vicious back-beat. Little Jack Lawrence's bass blows holes through your mind. Prepare to be spooked cause this record is scary good. Band features members of the White Stripes, the Kills, Queens of the Stone Age, the Raconteurs. B-side includes a cover of Gary Numan's Are Friends Electric. The Decemberists - The Rake's Song 7" (Capitol) ................................................................... Hazards of Love's glam-stomp murder ballad is backed up by an unreleased song, "East India Lanes", which is basically what B-sides were once for: a song too lightweight to work on an album, but too good to go altogether unheard. Dengue Fever / Chicha Libre split 7" (Barbes) ................................................................... These two bands share a common esthetic which has them draw inspiration from pop experiments largely left out of the mainstream. By embracing Cambodian Rock or Peruvian Chicha, the two are expanding the traditional musical palette available to bands around the world. In the process, they are creating a new global sound that owes more to the Indie sensibility than the World music of a previous generation. Depeche Mode - Wrong 7" (Capitol) ................................................................... "Wrong" is Depeche Mode's first single from their upcoming 12th studio album, Sounds of the Universe, and their 46th UK single overall. The B-side "Oh Well" (which is also going to be appear on the Sounds of the Universe deluxe box set edition) is the first collaboration between Martin Gore and Dave Gahan. The lyrics are Dave's and the music is Martin's. Bob Dylan - Dreaming From You 7" (Sony) ................................................................... The Bob Dylan 7" features "Dreamin' Of You" from last year's critically-acclaimed bootleg collection, Tell Tale Signs: The Bootleg Series Vol. 8, as well as "Down Along The Cove (Live From Bonnaroo)," which is previously unreleased in the US. Flaming Lips / Black Keys split 7" (WB) ................................................................... An exclusive split 7" single with artists covering songs from Warner Bros' illustrious back catalog. Flaming Lips with Stardeath And White Dwarfs performing Madonna's "Borderline" and The Black Keys taking on Captain Beefheart's "Her Eyes Are a Blue Million Miles." Killer! Flight of the Conchords - Pencils in the Wind 7" (Sub Pop) ................................................................... Two previously unreleased tracks from Season 1 of the Flight of the Conchords TV show. Limited Edition of 3000. Gomez - Airstream Driver 7" (ATO) ................................................................... "Airstream Driver" is a top ten album radio track, taken from GOMEZ's new albumA New Tide, and this 7 inch single features an exclusive, non-album b side, entitled "Edit". Please note: this b side is not an edited version of "Airstream Driver" but a brand new song, unavailable elsewhere! Grizzly Bear - Live on KCRW 7" (Warp) ................................................................... Featured here are two reverb-drenched tracks, played live on the venerable LA radio station KCRW. First up is "While You Wait For The Others," a track taken from their highly anticipated, upcoming LP Veckatimest. The flip features a nice version of "He Hit Me," originally recorded for the Friend EP. Now is a good time to announce we are having a listening party for Veckatimest on 5/25 - reserve your copy now! Buy it on 5/25 and you have a chance to win tickets and more to the show on 6/9! Guided By Voices - Hold on Hope EP (TVT) ................................................................... The Hold on Hope EP (now on vinyl!) includes Hold On Hope (album version), Underground Initiations, Interest Position, Do The Collapse, Fly Into Ashes, Tropical Robots, A Crick Uphill, Idiot Princess & Avalanche Aminos. As well as additional bonus tracks NOT on the CD version. Nice! Iron & Wine - Norfolk 6/20/05 CD (Sub Pop) ................................................................... Eighteen track live set from Iron and Wine's 2005 Woman King Tour, recorded at The Norva in Norfolk, Virginia. The CD features a 7" style die cut slipcase that mimics Sub Pop's Record Store Day 2009 45s. Jesus Lizard - Inch 7" Box (Touch & Go) ................................................................... INCH is a collection of all the 7" singles The Jesus Lizard released on Touch and Go, lovingly remastered by Bob Weston and enclosed in a foldable clear plastic package, suitable for both compact storage and bedroom wall display. Adding to the allure is the fact that each 7" has been out of print for over six years, so finding any one single (let alone all of them) at a store has been near impossible. Also included here is a 7" of "Puss", the Jesus Lizard's side from the long-gone split with Nirvana. Still not enough? INCH also contains the "Gladiator" single, originally given away exclusively at a Jesus Lizard Brixton Academy show in London back in 1992 and nowhere else. Jenny Lewis & Elvis Costello - Carpetbaggers 7" (Rhino) ................................................................... Never before available in the U.S., this exclusive limited edition 7" pressing created specially for Record Store day includes two songs featuring Rilo Kiley frontwoman Jenny Lewis and Elvis Costello. "Carpetbaggers," from Lewis's Warner Bros. Records album, Acid Tongue, features music legend Elvis Costello, while "Go Away" by Elvis Costello features Jenny Lewis on vocals. Lykki Li / El Perro del Mar split 7" (Rhino) ................................................................... Exclusive limited edition pressing created specially for Record Store day, featuring two unreleased cover songs from Swedish indiepop sensations Lykke Li & El Perro Del Mar. Features cover of Wendy Rene's "After Laughter (Comes Tears)" by Lykke Li, and a cover of Aaliyah's version of the Isley Brothers' "At Your Best (You Are Love)" by El Perro Del Mar. Magnolia Electric Co - It's Made Me Cry 7" (Secretly Canadian) ................................................................... It's been 6 years since Jason Molina has bestowed a 7-inch on us and it was well worth the wait. The first 3 songs of the first 7-inch under the Magnolia Electric Co moniker are comprised of compositions conceived, written, recorded and mixed by Jason and company over a series of 5 days in Bloomington by Mike Bridavsky at Russian Recording as they geared up for tour in October '08. The fourth track was recorded at the same studio about a year prior featuring the late great Evan Farrell, a Protection Spell for his new journey. Proceeds go towards Evan Farrell's family. MC5 - Kick Out the Jams / Motor City is Burning 7" (Rhino) ................................................................... Packaged in the original rare picture sleeve. Tracks from their legendary LIVE album Kick Out The Jams. First time available since it's 1969 release. Misfits - Walk Among Us LP (Rhino) ................................................................... Walk Among Us, The Misfits legendary debut album, isn't so much a musical milestone as it is an american music culture milestone. A mixture of 50's sci fi and horror imagery, Elvis, rockabilly and somehow more over the top then most punk rock groups of the day and still fun, funny, creepy and brilliant. A wonderfully crude 13 songs churned out in just 25 minutes and 25 years later still a classic. Pressed on 140 gram vinyl. My Morning Jacket - Celebracion de la Ciudad Natal 2x10"/CD ................................................................... Recorded live in Louisville at Waterfront Park and at Louisville record store,Ear-X-Tacy. Limited edition double ten-inch vinyl. Awesome artwork.

Radiohead - [vinyl EP reissues] (Capitol) ................................................................... Drill, Creep, My Iron Lung, High & Dry, Fake Plastic Trees, Just, Street Spirit, Paranoid Android, Karma Police, No Suprises, Pyramid Song, 2 + 2 = 5. Jay Reatard / Sonic Youth - split 7" (Matador) ................................................................... The Jay Reatard / Sonic Youth split features demo versions of songs from their upcoming albums (late August and June 9 respectively): Hang Them All and No Garage. Silversun Pickups - Pikul 12" (Dangerbird) ................................................................... Silversun Pickups widely anticipated debut EP, Pikul, now on vinyl! Said the LA Times of Silversun Pickups sonic signature: "The band's sound is distinctive – over Nikki Monninger's loping, occasionally acrobatic bass lines, [frontman Brian] Aubert sings in a faintly tortured voice, and his penchant for painterly guitar textures is played out in dreamy layers or neck-snapping cascades of riffage Neil Young would love." Slayer - Psychopathy Red 7" (Sony) ................................................................... The first new music since 2006's ferocious Christ Illusion, "Psychopathy Red" is a blast of proper thrash metal by the band that invented it. The track is inspired by the truly heinous Russian serial murderer, Andrei Chikatilo, and if this is any indication of where Slayer's heading with their new album (Summer 2009) then, once again, no one is safe. The Smiths - Headmaster Ritual 7" (Rhino) ................................................................... This is the rarest commercially issued single by The Smiths. Originally released in July 1985 on Megadisc in Holland, it features the original Dutch package with a black & white "cowboy" sleeve. Mastered from the original tapes and never before available in the U.S. as a 7" single. Sonic Youth / Beck - split 7" (Matador) ...................................................................

The Stooges - 1969 / Real Cool Time 7" (Rhino) ................................................................... Packaged in the original rare picture sleeve. Tracks are from their seminal debut album The Stooges. The Stooges album has been heralded as one of Rolling Stones top 500 albums of all time. Talking Heads - 77 LP [reissue] (Rhino) ................................................................... The debut album from New York-based Talking Heads is a slice of brilliant schizophrenic pop. The urgency of the music heralds in the beginnings of the new wave era, showing a band at the forefront of a movement, unwilling to conform while making a statement with their sound. Remastered at Acoustech Mastering. Pressed on 180 gram vinyl. Derek Trucks - Already Live CD EP (Sony) ................................................................... Live performance is what made The Derek Trucks Band famous. Already Free is the newest album that proves the DTB is also an album-driven powerhouse. The Already Live EP includes 5 previously unreleased live tracks from the fall 2008 tour, beautifully recorded, mixed and mastered! Vetiver - Wishing Well 7" (Sub Pop) ................................................................... Two previously unreleased tracks from the "Tight Knit" sessions. Limited edition of 1500.

Two previously unreleased tracks recorded in 1996. Pulled from the Baseball Park Sessions. Produced by Chris Stamey Wilco - Ashes of American Flags DVD (Nonesuch) ...................................................................

Mixing live concert footage with band interviews, it takes the viewer behind the scenes of Wilco's 2008 US tour capturing both the expansive experience of rolling across America in a tour bus and the intimacy that happens night after night between the members of Wilco and the music they make, and between the band and their fans who come to experience it with them. As an exclusive bonus to consumers who purchase their DVD "Ashes of American Flags" at RSD participating stores, they will be able to download one complete concert drawn from the shows featured in the film.
