Animal records will open at 8 AM central time on April 12, 2025 for Record Store Day (RSD). Customers who wish to be first in the door are encouraged to wait in the line on the sidewalk outside of the store prior to opening and will be offered RSD titles on a first come first served basis.
Please note, Per RSD tradition and our policy, Customers will be allowed to buy as many DIFFERENT Record Store Day titles as they like, but we will not sell the same customer more than one copy of any single RSD title until after everyone in the line has been helped. We do this so that it is not possible for the first customer in line to buy up every copy of a very popular title that many people in the line might want. We will also not be holding any RSD titles for customers in advance per the rules of RSD. This is the fairest way to treat our customers.
Please follow our Instagram page for updates of which titles we receive as we will be posting lists of all RSD titles we receive publicly on Instagram prior to close of business on Friday April 11th so that customers know whether or not we received the RSD titles they are looking for.
Please feel free to call or email us with any questions in advance.
Thanks Animal Records!
