Simple Plan are releasing No Pads, No Helmets… Just Balls on vinyl!

To continue celebrating the 15th anniversary of their debut album ‘No Pads, No Helmets… Just Balls’, Simple Plan are releasing this record for the first time in the form of a vinyl this year! And wanna know the best part? It’s actually already out!


This is only a mock-up visual of the No Pads vinyl and may not 100% represent the actual release.
It is currently unknown what color is the vinyl disc itself.

Despite no official confirmation from the band itself, SimplePlan.cz has found out that the Internet has been slowly filling up with links to online music stores all over the world, which already started selling the reissue of Simple Plan’s first album – on vinyl!

According to the Czech online music store Vltava.cz, the vinyl was released (at least in the Czech Republic) on June 2nd. The price ranges on various Czech online music stores between 413 to 499 CZK (from about 15.2 € to 18.5 €).

Similarly, the vinyl can also be found in Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Italy or Hungary. In most European countries, the release date was apparently June 9th. In Japan, the No Pads vinyl is expected to be released on June 30th.

All the websites indicate that the vinyl features 12 songs from No Pads, No Helmets… Just Balls. That means bonus songs, such as ‘Grow Up’ or the live version of the cover of ‘American Jesus’ don’t seem to be included on this vinyl.

As the band still remains silent about the release of this vinyl, it is currently unknown when this limited edition vinyl will be available in other countries. We are currently trying to find out more official info about the release of this vinyl. Stay tuned for more info!

Simple Plan’s debut album has previously never been released on vinyl before. Its release closely follows the release of the Taking One For The Team vinyl, which is available since last year. Besides these two records, Simple Plan also released their third, self-titled album on vinyl. Singles that are available on smaller, 7-inch vinyls include Addicted, Welcome To My Life, Crazy, Untitled, Shut Up and When I’m Gone.
