A new, limited-edition, black 7″ vinyl will be released on Nonesuch Records on November 25, 2016, exclusively as a part of Record Store Day’s Black Friday event at independent record shops. The vinyl features a new full-band recording of “Tachycardia,” a song on Conor’s just-released solo album Ruminations, paired with “Afterthought,” an unreleased track from the Ruminations recording sessions. The disc is being pressed at Record Industry in the Netherlands.
The Black Friday release follows the October 14 release of Ruminations on Nonesuch. “Ruminations is one of Conor Oberst’s most personal records,” says NPR Music‘s Bob Boilen, “a collection of brave, dark songs … that are unmistakably moving and contain some of Oberst’s best lyrics and imagery.”
To get Ruminations now, head to your local record shop, iTunes, Amazon, or the Nonesuch Store, where CD and vinyl orders include a download of the complete album at checkout; the album is also available to purchase there as 192kHz/24bit HD FLAC files.
