Seeing as it's a nice day outside (where I am, anyway) and I live walking distance from four record stores, I did the logical thing and stocked up on fresh vinyl. Got Shel Silverstein's Freaking at the Freaker's Ball, R.E.M.'s Eponymous and The Beach Boy's Endless Summer for 10, 8 and 5 dollars respectively. I then made the mistake of looking in the first of many shelving units full of dollar records and found one I wanted, The Balancing Act's New Campfire Songs. After this I had to look through all of them in case I saw something else and I managed to pick up all three of The Balancing Act's records for a sweet three bucks and The Kink's Sleepwalker for about what it's worth. For anybody who hasn't heard about The Balancing Act, they're a band that was signed to IRS and put out a few semi-decent records - nothing great, but pretty enjoyable music. I only heard about them because Carl Newman (of the New Pornographers) recommended them on his twitter a few years back.

Finally picked this up last night at their concert: Five Ghosts by Stars, except on umm six 7"s. Wanted to buy it when it first came out but it would have been 20 bucks to ship it here so I never bothered. Slightly disappointed in the colours though (though to be fair, the crappy cellphone picture doesn't do much justice here), because I was always expected this:  More of a "marbly" look than the transparents that are actually in the box.

By the way, is that Hardcore Devo reissue an authorized release or is it a fancy bootleg? edit: OK never mind, it's an official release. Devo is promoting it on their website.

I bought them both from Amazon so can check, as I'm sat next to them, but as far as I can tell they are both FATLP11X and FATLP22X? Is it that they are Pias as well as Fatcat? Because at least Agaetis Byrjun is, no idea about ( ) as it has bugger all on the packaging about anything.

There are no barcodes I can find (there's pretty much nothing outside of the Fatcat / Pias / Crunk / Smekkleysa logos on AB, and ( ) just has SigurRos.com on it). If it was on the shrink wrap I chucked that. Both of them do have the runouts discogs.com mention on the 2013 versions (BC97642-01 A1 MK etc) and it doesn't mention anything for the 2009 ones.

The barcode is on a sticker on the sleeve on mine. I'll check the runouts when I open it, sounds like you have the new one though.

Does anybody know if there's some difference between the version of the upcoming Knife album that's being offered on their webstore ($42) and the one(s) on other sites like Insound ($30) or Amazon ($25)? I'm thinking that maybe ordering from Rabid directly might be more expensive because they might be shipping from Europe but I really have no clue and $17 seems like a big enough difference to suggest the presence of something that I'm not understanding. I told you bro.

Gah, I spent a few days debating over shelling out $200 for that record. Ultimately said no for my health. Super glad I did. Seems now it will be only a matter of time before the Trilogy is given a standard vinyl release just for some good will.

Speaking of "limited, expensive and sure to sell out quickly vinyl boxsets":  This Strapping Young Lad boxset comes for €225/$225, with 150 copies of this particular edition only. Blood Music seem to be keeping up their track record of incredible, but wallet breaking special editions.

I'm ebaying some stuff and getting sad. Did the noise market collapse? I had been sitting on Merzbow's first LP from 83 and seen it go for over 300. Looks like I'm getting 100. Doesn't bode well for the shitload of noise-ish vinyl I was going to try to cash in on.

Doesn't bode well for the shitload of noise-ish vinyl I was going to try to cash in on. The last CD I sold on eBay jumped from $115 to $265 in the last, like, 5 seconds before the auction finished. You might get more for it yet.
