| _Griphin_ User Info... | BURBANK, Calif. - (Business Wire) Reprise Records will release multi-platinum rock band Green Day's entire catalog on 12-inch vinyl, giving fans and collectors alike access to records that have been hard-to-find or out-of-print for years. The band's first two albums, 39/Smooth and Kerplunk, will be made available on March 24th, while their third, the breakthrough smash Dookie, will be made available on April 18th, in honor of the second annual Record Store Day — a celebration of the unique culture surrounding the more than 700 independently owned record stores in the U.S. The remaining albums will be released chronologically throughout 2009. Details about each release are as follows: Green Day's debut 39/Smooth, which was originally released by Lookout! Records in 1990, will be available on 140-gram vinyl, along with two 7-inch singles, "Slappy" and "1000 Hours," beginning March 24th. Kerplunk, originally released on Lookout! Records in 1992, will be available on 140-gram vinyl, along with the 7-inch single "Sweet Children," beginning March 24th. Dookie, the band's Diamond-selling major-label debut that was originally released by Reprise Records in 1994, will be available on 180-gram, audiophile-grade vinyl beginning April 18th. Insomniac, which was originally released by Reprise Records in 1995, will be available on 140-gram vinyl beginning May 12th. Nimrod, which was originally released by Reprise Records in 1997, will be available on two 140-gram vinyl discs with a gatefold sleeve, beginning June 16th. Warning, which was originally released by Reprise Records in 2000, will be available on 140-gram vinyl beginning July 14th. International Superhits!, a greatest hits collection that was released by Reprise Records in 2001, will be available on 140-gram vinyl beginning August 11th. Shenanigans, a compilation of B-sides, rarities, and covers that was released by Reprise Records in 2002, will be available on 140-gram vinyl beginning September 15th. American Idiot, the band's chart-topping, Grammy-Award winning punk rock opera that was released by Reprise Records in 2004, will be available on two 180-gram, audiophile-grade vinyl beginning October 13th. Bullet in a Bible, a live CD/DVD, that was released by Reprise Records in 2005, will be available on 140-gram vinyl beginning November 10th. Each album will be plated and pressed at Pallas in Germany and mastered at the world-renowned Bernie Grundman Studios, familiar to audiophiles worldwide. In addition, Reprise will also release a boxed set of Green Day singles culled from the band's entire career, including those from their alter egos Foxboro Hot Tubs and The Network, as well as B-sides, international tracks, and live tracks, on July 21st. Green Day are currently putting finishing touches on their highly anticipated, Butch Vig-produced eighth studio album, 21st Century Breakdown, which will be released by Reprise Records in May 2009. It, too, will be available on 180-gram, audiophile-grade vinyl.

BTW: Bernie Grundman Studios did the Metallica-Metallica re-issue/master on vinyl and did quite an awesome job, although I would love to here the original mixing/mastering that was done on Kerplunk. Originally I was going to collect just the Metallica re-issues on vinyl, now I have to start collecting Green Day re-issues. - Sun, 15 Mar 2009 2:16pm Edited: Sun, 15 Mar 2009 2:50pm | ||
