It's never a bad time to add to your music collection, but one of the best times of the year to do so is when Record Store Day rolls around. Organizers have announced that the 2020 edition will take place in participating stores on April 18 and we've compiled a listing of some of the best rock and metal offerings you'll find on Record Store Day.

The list is broken up into three categories -- Record Store Day Exclusives which are available at participating RSD stores, Regional Releases, which are typically limited and may not appear in all stores, and First Releases, which are titles that will first be released as part of Record Store Day with the offerings eventually surfacing elsewhere a few weeks later.

If you lean more toward rock, you'll find The Black Keys' Let's Rock. as a double LP release, dig into the past with an LP version of My Chemical Romance's The Murder Scene and check out the 3LP offering of The Replacements' The Complete Inconcerated Live. Metal fans, meanwhile, might by digging the Dio "Annica" 12" picture disc, Ice Nine Kills' The Silver Scream: Killer Cuts on 10" vinyl, the limited edition 40th anniversary double LP of Judas Priest's British Steel or Skid Row's expanded Slave to the Grind double LP.

You might have to dig a little deeper to find specialty regional releases from August Burns Red, The Alarm, Iggy Pop & The Stooges and Twiztid among others.

As for those RSD, first releases, we can bet there'll be interest in Badflower's "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" / "The Jester" 12" picture disc, Collective Soul's Half and Half 12" vinyl featuring two covers and two new songs, Refused's Not Fit for Broadcast - Live at BBC 12" vinyl and Def Leppard's Rock and Roll Hall of Fame 12". Plus, Clutch have The Obelisk box set turning up as well.
