Generation Records

New York

4.5 (979) record store
Closed

Generation Records is a prominent music shop offering an extensive multi-level inventory across two floors. The store specializes in punk, metal, and indie rock vinyl, alongside CDs, band t-shirts, music posters, and a downstairs clearance section.

Commenters hold deep nostalgia for the shop, with several hailing it as the best record store in NYC and praising its basement poster collection. While sentiment is overwhelmingly enthusiastic and fond, at least one commenter noted a lack of heavy and extreme metal selections.

  • Explore the basement level for clearance items and vintage music posters
  • Browse the wide selection of band t-shirts and music merchandise
  • Expect a large catalog of punk, indie rock, and classic vinyl titles
  • Keep in mind that extreme and heavy metal selections may be limited
