If you haven’t heard already, tomorrow, April 17th is Record Store Day, one of the coolest “holidays” in rock in roll.  This is the day where bands, labels, and pretty much the whole music community do what they can to give independent record stores their much deserved due .

Just like last year labels and artists are coming out of the woodwork with some really cool and original releases available exclusively at independent record stores.  So if you are a music lover, stop by your local independent record store and join in the fun!

Since there are so many releases set for tomorrow, we wanted to pull together a quick list of the highlights from where we are sitting.  If you are looking for a complete list, head over the the record store day website.
