The Vinyl Factory and Island Records present a deluxe gatefold vinyl edition of Paul Weller’s new album, Sonik Kicks.

The follow-up to the Mercury Music Award nominated Wake Up the Nation, Sonik Kicks is Weller’s eleventh solo album and in terms of its scope, certainly the former Jam and Style Council member’s most ambitious and unique to date. Recorded in Weller’s own Black Barn Studios in Ripley, Surrey, with co-producer Simon Dine and trusted engineer Charles Rees, it also features an ensemble cast of guests, with appearances from Noel Gallagher, Graham Coxon, Aziz Ibrahim and more.

The Vinyl Factory’s special edition of the album comes on heavyweight 180-gram vinyl in a bespoke gatefold sleeve with specially treated matt UV artwork. On top of that, it features an inner sleeve featuring lyrics and artwork, and an exclusive insert written by Michael Horovitz.

It’s available to pre-order now from The Vinyl Factory shop, and will be released on March 19. In addition to this, next Monday will see the release of British artist Jeremy Deller’s release with The Vinyl Factory.
