Billboard.com, you’re my new best friend. Well, maybe not you specifically, but any person with the official word that the Replacements back catalog is finally getting reissued! On April 22nd via Rhino, Sorry Ma…, Stink, Hootenanny, and Let It Be are all going to be re-released! With unreleased bonus tracks! Sorry for the multiple exclamation points, but oh god is the thought of Replacements songs I’ve never heard exciting.

Straight from the horses mouth:
