Friday's stacked. Stray Kids' comeback lands loaded with collector variants, Kylie Minogue's catalog returns to wax across four albums, and Sleep Token goes instrumental for the first time. Add new full-lengths from Ravyn Lenae, Role Model, and King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard, and this is one of the deepest new-vinyl drops of the year. Here's everything that's new on vinyl this week at Drowned World Records.

Stray Kids — This & That (Solar Eclipse Vinyl)

Stray Kids return with their 10th mini album, This & That, alongside a brand new world tour — and physical collectors have plenty to chase, with the album arriving in over 20 different editions worldwide. The Solar Eclipse Vinyl is the standout pressing: a full eclipse-effect record packaged with a folded poster, disc sleeve, lyrics paper, bookmark, and a random group photocard, all housed in an oversized 312mm jacket. Preceded by pre-release single "Run It."

Kylie Minogue — 4 Classic Albums Return to Vinyl

Kylie's back catalog hits wax this week. Light Years — the "Spinning Around" comeback album — hasn't had a proper vinyl pressing since 2000, and it's finally back in stock. Aphrodite, out of print since its sole 2010 run, joins it. Kiss Me Once arrives as a limited 2LP edition, and X makes it to vinyl for the very first time. All four Kylie Minogue vinyl reissues are in stock now — shipping already started, so orders are moving fast.

It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown — 60th Anniversary Zoetrope Vinyl

Celebrating 60 years of Vince Guaraldi's timeless score, this is the first-ever zoetrope vinyl pressing — with classic scenes from the animated special appearing right on the record as it spins. Pressed at 45RPM and loaded with Halloween favorites like "Graveyard Theme," "The Great Pumpkin Waltz," and "Linus and Lucy." Film it at 30fps and watch the Peanuts gang animate on your turntable.

Sleep Token — Even in Arcadia (Instrumental Edition)

Sleep Token's fourth album, stripped of vocals and pressed exclusively on translucent light blue vinyl. With the vocals gone, the musicianship and production carry the whole record — a genuinely different way to experience Even in Arcadia.
