HMV Record Shop Shinjuku

If you're a music enthusiast who still swears by vinyl and enjoys digging through piles of secondhand records, then this Shinjuku shop will feel like a small slice of heaven. Following the 2014 opening of a Shibuya location, the record-focused arm of the now Lawson-owned HMV empire expanded to the iconic Alta building in October 2016. HMV Record Shop Shinjuku stocks around 70,000 vinyl titles plus another 20,000 in CD form, and there's even a small section dedicated to cassette tapes.
