Walmart's listing has conflicted dates for it's release. It'll either be released as part of their Collector Con new releases on 10/13 beginning at 7am PST or on 10/27.

You can pre-order it now at Walmart. 

Electric Mayhem LP Cover Art Revealed!

Dr. Teeth and The Electric Mayhem's first vinyl release comes out this Friday and today Disney officially revealed the cover art. 

Below is the official description: 

After 45 years of rockin’ out, The Electric Mayhem — Dr. Teeth on vocals and keyboards, Animal on drums, Floyd Pepper on vocals and bass, Janice on vocals and lead guitar, Zoot on saxophone and Lips on trumpet — goes on an epic, music-filled journey to record their first-ever studio album. With the help of a driven young music executive, Nora, the old-school Muppet band comes face to face with the current day music scene as they try to finally go platinum. 

 

The vinyl comes in two variations - Translucent Purple/Blue Swirl available at Amazon, Target, and Disney Music Emporium and a Poison Dart Frog Green vinyl that is a 2 LP Target exclusive. 

The Translucent Purple/Blue Swirl is $19.98 at Amazon and Target and $24.98 Disney Music Emporium, while the Poison Dart Frog Green Target exclusive is $22.99.

Target even has the album in their ad for the week. 

UPDATE:

Cover Artist Matt Taylor shared more of the art he created including the cover art without the titles and inside gatefold graphics.

EVERYTHING IS BETTER WITH MUPPETS!

Here's some more from my @ElectricMayhem album cover art because @Muppets_Mayhem is out today (I just watched the first episode and it's super fun). The interior gatefold was a blast to draw and try and get as many easter eggs in as possible. pic.twitter.com/4D2ZWo6vf4

iam8bit Exclusive Muppet Movie Vinyl Soundtrack!

iam8bit is releasing an exclusive remastered vinyl record of The Muppet Movie soundtrack. 

The classic soundtrack with songs by Paul Williams and Kenneth Ascher has been completely remastered and reimagined for the first time in over 40 years specifically for vinyl. 

After the success with their Muppet Christmas Carol vinyl soundtrack in November iam8bit has once again teamed up with Kevin Wilson to produce art work for the release. Unlike the re-use of Wilson's already produced Muppet Christmas Carol art work though, his art for this release seems to to brand new. 

The front features Kermit on his log singing "Rainbow Connection", the back features Kermit and Fozzie in Fozzie's uncle's Studebaker at the fork in the road next to a Doc Hopper's Frog leg's billboard.

The inside sleeve features Kermit and Miss Piggy dining by candlelight on one side,

while the other features Gonzo in the desert singing "I'm going to go back there someday."

The inside labels feature Scooter with his clapboard denoting each side of the record.

Below is the official description:

Keep believing, keep pretending;

We've done just what we've set out to do,

Thanks to the lovers, the dreamers, and YOU!

It’s an absolute dream come true for iam8bit to collaborate with The Muppets Studio and Walt Disney Records to release this completely remastered revival of The Muppet Movie soundtrack on vinyl. (That feels sooooo good to say.) More than 40 years since it’s original release in 1979, we’ve rummaged backstage at The Muppet Theatre to dust off timeless recordings like the Oscar-nominated “Rainbow Connection” and the road trip ditty, “Movin’ Right Along,” sparing no executional detail to give this album the treatment it deserves.

The music by legends, Paul Williams and Kenneth Ascher, is undisputedly excellent, charming in its love of lyricism, with perfectly-honed harmonies and arrangements. These are the songs that rocketed The Muppets from mere TV stardom to the realm of rockstars, featuring outstanding performances by Kermit the Frog, Miss Piggy, Fozzie Bear, Gonzo the Great, Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem (with Animal on wicked drums), and so many more. Statler and Waldorf would even approve of the outstanding album artwork by Kevin Wilson, who approached this design not merely as a commission, but as a lifelong obsession with The Muppets.

That's not all, iam8bit is releasing 4 variants of their Muppet Movie LP:

Kermit Green (iam8bit exclusive)

Miss Piggy Pink (iam8bit and in the UK at Just For Games)

Scooter Yellow (Light in the Attic Records exclusive)

Animal Red (Zavvi)

And, best of it's available to pre-order TODAY at 9am PST / 12PT EST using the links above. 

Expect them to arrive sometime in July.
