how to get restock alerts for Epitaph Records

Epitaph runs separate UK and US webstores, and both carry colourways that exist only there. The label also represses its back catalogue steadily, which matters more than the new releases because decades of punk records go in and out of print with no announcement at all.

The repressings are the easy wins. Unlike a launch-day exclusive they tend to sit in stock for hours or days, so hearing about them at all is usually enough.

what the label store has that shops don't

  • Webstore-exclusive colours

    Variants limited to the label's own store, which shops do not receive.

  • Catalogue repressings

    Out-of-print records returning quietly. These are the most gettable items on the store if you are told about them.

  • Regional store differences

    The UK and US stores carry overlapping but distinct ranges, including different exclusives.

how to get the repressings

  1. Run a broad repress keyword

    Repressings span the whole catalogue and are never announced, so filtering by one album title means missing everything else.

  2. Add the band keyword too

    The store posts for the full roster. One or two band keywords alongside repress keeps the alerts relevant.

  3. Use the UK store if you're in the UK

    Both stores ship, but the regional one avoids customs charges that can exceed the price of the record.
