Thanksgiving is approaching and so is the 2017 edition of Record Store Day's Black Friday event, held this year on November 24. As usual, a wide variety of cool limited-edition vinyl discs will be available in independent record stores, including releases from Chris Cornell, Dan Auerbach and Death from Above.
The late Cornell's release will be a 12-inch EP titled Poncier, named after Matt Dillon's character in the 1992 grunge rom-com Singles. The five-song collection, featuring the track "Seasons," will be available on vinyl and cassette -- with artwork by Pearl Jam's Jeff Ament-- for the first time on Record Store Day Black Friday.
Auerbach's contribution is a seven-inch single with a new song called "Cellophane Angel," as well as tracks from two of his collaborators: Sonny Smith and Robert Finley.
Death from Above is releasing a seven-inch clear vinyl single featuring the song "Freeze Me"-- the lead single from the band's new album Outrage! Is Now -- plus a new track called "Keep It Real Dumb."
Other artists releasing vinyl for Record Store Day Black Friday include Anthrax, Cold War Kids, Gorillaz, Gary Clark Jr., Iggy Pop, Nathaniel Rateliff & the Night Sweats, Black Label Society, Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds, Gone Is Gone, The Kills, At the Drive-In, Fleet Foxes and Sublime.
