This year, seminal punk rock act Sex Pistols will be marking the 30th anniversary of their landmark album, Never Mind the Bollocks, with a number of special vinyl reissues.

Re-creating all the original artwork from the first editions' front, back and onbody, and housed in unfinished heavy-weight paper sleeves, Virgin Records will be issuing the band's four classic singles - "Anarchy In The UK", "God Save The Queen", "Pretty Vacant" and "Holidays In The Sun" - an a once a week basis throughout October.

The series will culminate in the release of the album in heavy weight vinyl with a seven-inch insert of the track "Submission" and poster - just as the album was originally released on October 28th 1977. This format came about when the original vinyl album was released a week earlier than planned due to French imports, and "Submission" was left off. In the original release, a one-sided 7-inch was packaged with the album featuring the song for the first 50,000 pressed

I've had never mind the bollocks in my car all week.
Sometimes I forget how good that record was
