Metallica, MGMT, Bruce Springsteen, and more than 30 other artists will be driving shoppers into independent record stores during this year's Thanksgiving shopping rush, dropping limited edition vinyl releases as part of "Back to Black Friday."
The event aims to take advantage of the country's biggest annual single day of shopping, November 26, aka Black Friday, and is organized by the creators of Record Store Day, the cooperative project of indie outlets that stock limited edition releases for one day in April.
