Thundercat is marking the 10-year anniversary of his debut album, The Golden Age of Apocalypse, by dropping a deluxe reissue of the studio set on vinyl.
The vinyl is set to arrive on store shelves on November 26th; for those keeping track on the calendar, that’s Record Store Day Black Friday. In addition to the album’s 13 original tracks, the reissue — which is pressed on a translucent red LP — will also include two new bonus cuts: “$200 TB” and “Daylight (Reprise).”
Released on August 29th, 2011, The Golden Age of Apocalypse originally peaked at No. 9 on the Top Dance/Electronic Albums chart and features contributions from the likes of Shafiq Husayn and Om’Mas Keith of The Sa-Ra Creative Partners, drummer Chris “Daddy” Dave, Erykah Badu, and more.
Meanwhile, Thundercat is currently in the midst of a North American headlining tour, which runs through December 11th with a closing show at History in Toronto. Grab tickets for the remaining dates via Ticketmaster here.
