April 21, known globally in recent years as Record Store Day, will this year feature some very awesome collector’s editions of some of the finest heavy music acts ever.

German label Silver Lining Music will release four very special editions on RSD.

 

The legendary MOTÖRHEAD will be issuing a 7” picture disc of their runaway hit cover version of David Bowie’s “Heroes”, with the art featuring a new “sketch” take on the classic war-pig.

 “It’s such a great Bowie song, one of his best, and I could only see great things coming from it out of us,” said guitarist Phil Campbell, whilst drummer Mikkey Dee added, “Lemmy was very, very proud of it, not only because it turned out so well, but because it was fun!”

 

Swedish rock icons EUROPE will be releasing a limited-edition collectable 12-inch picture disc of their current album WALK THE EARTH.

Europe are touring Australia in May!
