Some albums outlive their era, carrying their magic from one generation to the next. The Jerry Garcia Family and Round Records celebrate the 50th anniversary of Reflections, “one of Garcia’s most artistically unified statements of harmony, affirmation, and joy,” with an expanded 3xLP set for Record Store Day on April, 2026. Reflections (50th Anniversary Edition) […]
Non-sensical, un-user friendly, at times half finished. Camper Van Beethoven’s second album II & III saw the folk-punk of the band’s debut LP morphing into an even wider array of stylistic influences and (un)ironic contradictions, all rolled up into a coherently incoherent collection of some of the band’s most defining songs. Originally released in 1986, […]
Originally released in 2011, Grace for Drowning is the second solo album from Steven Wilson. This Headphone Dust digital edition expands the original double-album experience with additional bonus tracks and demos, including the rare bonus material CD “The Map” originally included with the physical Grace for Drowning deluxe book edition. “Grace for Drowning is more […]
Releasing as a 2CD set, this edition includes the original album, newly remastered from the original master tapes, alongside a bonus disc of rare, previously unreleased alternate versions and outtakes from their early recording sessions.

Books 4-6 are getting a glow up
Six years is a long time, about one-and-a-half generations in pop music and a fairly large chunk out of anyone’s life, two sentiments that come into play on the Beastie Boys’ sixth album, 2004’s To the 5 Boroughs. When the Beasties last delivered an album, it was in the summer of 1998 as the Clinton […]
…features the original album as well as sessions, B-sides, a live show from the time and a complete disc of demos from Chapel Studios.

Forty years on and the seismic shift that was 5150 – Van Halen’s first album with Sammy Hagar replacing David Lee Roth and also my first introduction to the band still detonates with a force that few records in the hard rock canon can match. The 2026 expanded edition, remastered directly from the original master […]
…“Legendary Edition” of the band’s self-titled debut offers the remastered original album (featuring tracks like “Mama Kin,” “Movin’ Out” and the eventual smash hit “Dream On”) alongside a new remix of the album, overseen in 2024 by Steven Tyler and Joe Perry with producer/engineer Zakk Cervini and producer Steve Berkowitz, plus a further 17 unreleased […]

The reissue pairs the original 10-track album featuring the chart-topping “Off the Ground,” alongside fan favorites “Rita Mae Young” and “On the Move” with a newly unearthed live document: the band’s legendary […]
Few bands come out of the gate sounding as genuinely unique and beholden to little that came before as Camper Van Beethoven did when their debut album, Telephone Free Landslide Victory, first appeared in 1985. They also managed to do so with a loose-limbed amiability suggesting it happened by mistake, or at least without too […]
…features a newly remastered version of the original double album; rarities; previously unreleased studio and live recordings; and several new mixes by Steven Wilson.
