RSD release for an underrated favorite

This year's Record Store Day (April 13th) will include a Trevor-related release, which is always good news for collectors.  Boutique label Wargod Collective will be issuing a few soundtrack albums for RSD this year and one of them is for the 2007 Lonely Island-helmed comedy Hot Rod, which has never previously been released on vinyl.  However, this one is going to be hard to come by for those of us in the US...

As described on the official website:
Quickly approaching cult comedy status, Hot Rod’s over the top soundtrack has become just as memorable as the film itself – featuring a mostly 80s inspired track list that boasts Cutting Crew, Moving Pictures, and yes, four Europe songs. Also contains dialogue from your favorites in The Lonely Island crew (led by Andy Samberg), plus Danny McBride, and Bill Hader. Limited to 1,000 copies including 700 on red/white/blue striped vinyl and 300 on “dong bag yellow.”

And the soundtrack also contains three selections from Trevor's score for the movie, including the stirring "Stunt Suite," yet another example of Trevor's "human highlight reel" type of composing.

So for those of you on this side of the pond looking to add to your collections, you might want to check your favorite import sites and also scope out eBay in the weeks after RSD to see if any of these copies become available.
