Buzzcocks

The lineup this year is pretty great, with Iggy Pop, Buzzcocks, X, Guitar Wolf, NRBQ, Shannon & The Clams, Nobunny, Quintron & Ms. Pussycat and more.

Back in 2004, Pitchfork published their Top 100 Albums of the 1970s list, and today they’ve returned with the 200 Best Songs of the 1970s. Some of the artists who didn’t make the cut on the albums list are now here, like Black Sabbath, Grateful Dead, Bruce Springsteen, Patti Smith…

Their covers album puts a folky, moody spin on classics by The Replacements, Buzzcocks, Bad Brains, The Stooges and more. Springtime Carnivore also has her own album on the way.

This year’s RSD exclusives include David Bowie picture discs, a vinyl pressing of the famed ‘C-86’ comp, the Requiem for a Dream soundtrack, and lots, lots, lots, more.
