Read After Burning posted:Ha, if the other albums are better than Phantom Limb, I'm in for a treat. That's really their only album I know, good ol' middle school nostalgia. It's way more just basic (but good) grind compared with the other stuff, that I've heard anyway. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i4GNIAdJNTE Pig Destroyer did a split with Orchid as their first or second release, if you want to go slightly left field. Which you should because this is one of the greatest albums of all time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TrEr8sPw2J0

They've gotten more into weird metal lately because J.R. can't scream like he used to. Still have their moments though like around :45 in this song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDn084oMsL4 In semi-related news Botch just announced a tour. Also listen to Cloud Rat https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2tIOShCDPZs Hot Diggity! fucked around with this message at 05:34 on Feb 17, 2023 |

I'm glad our pet bun tolerates all kinds of music as long as the speakers aren't turned up too loud. He did a big flop to Apathy/Celph Titled earlier.  Nihonniboku posted:It's a great album, and he's amazing live. Forgot to mention this amongst metal-chat, but my partner (both a relatively stoic dude and also not as into country as I am) got hella emotional the first time he heard Let Me Drown, it's his favorite. Hexie Mountains is a special one. <3 I would love to see him live one day, maybe we'll make a day trip of it next time he comes to San Francisco.

Yeah, I really only know him as Orville Peck. I don't know his punk stuff. I admire his commitment to the character though, even putting on an American accent in interviews, even when he was on Trixie Motel.

Didn't see a UK list posted, so here it is: https://recordstoreday.co.uk/rsd-list/ Quite a few Jazz releases I wouldn't mind, and a few others too. Alas, my local record store doesn't participate and as a poor person I picked a bloody stupid hobby to be into.

Outside of the 45s, 12” singles, and picture discs I don’t think a lot of RSD releases are terribly overpriced at retail, but it’s the dorks who immediately put them on eBay and discogs double what they paid who ruin it.

I decided to stop in at the new Value Village "Boutique" that opened in my neighborhood. Upon getting to the vinyl I was surprised to find a lot of 80s and 90s stuff that usually isn't in thrift stores around here. Pretty soon, I found out why: Everything was priced by an absolute madman. Want a trashed copy of Bat Out of Hell? That'll be $20. The Peel Sessions EP by New Order? $30. Willie Nelson's Greatest Hits? $25. Normally, I would have stopped browsing but felt the need to fight back against this injustice by stealing something. I was briefly tempted by a $25 maxi single of Venus by Bananarama, but eventually came upon this: This spicy collection of hits was marked as rare. With underline. The cost? $44. That was the one. After pulling off a daring caper that consisted of walking out the front door with it, I decide to give it a listen when I got home. This might actually be something rare. This might be the single worst sounding record in the world. It was clearly made from like an 8th generation dupe and sounds like it's being played in a refrigerator stuck inside another refrigerator. It is flat at least, and properly centered. Nevertheless, it's got appalling wow and flutter. Like it's pressed right in. I've never heard anything like it. Anyway my wife won't let me frame it, so I don't know. Maybe I'll smuggle it back into the store and put a $100 price tag on it.

bigman.50grand posted:Speaking of pre-orders, today marks one year +1 day that I ordered the Cowboy Bebop ST from LITA. As of 12/22/22, the current status is that shipments will start being sent on 2/24/23. Maybe I'll have this stupid thing by the end of '23? That thing hit stores ages ago. If you're not holding out for whatever pretty colors LITA is selling and this album is hard to get there are several copies at the Newbury Comics in my area. It's the overpriced Newbury variant so it's 40 bucks though. But if you absolutely must have it I can pick it up for you and send it your way (obviously for the money). dorium posted:I still think about the soul that paid me $900 for the Black Friday version of blond two years ago now. What a time. That's absolutely insane did you sell it to a Saudi Prince or something? No record is worth this. That's great for you though. caligulamprey posted:
 I've been trying to get a copy of this for a while but the prices on the originals have quadrupled in price over the last couple years. Records are the modern tulipmania. Thanks for the heads up.

Kind of hilarious that the link for that image is straight.com. Also re: his voice. I saw an interview with him as Orville Peck and he was talking in his real voice. He's super adorable.

My favorite thing about this is when the scalpers over anticipate the demand for certain releases and can't unload them at any price and then eventually have to sell them below the original retail price just to dump them. There's usually only a handful of RSD releases anyone cares about. Most of it ends up in clearance bins or otherwise collects dust for years. Newbury Comics (at least one the nearest to me) had to have an all sales final rule on RSD stuff because way too many people were buying the poo poo to resell at a markup and when they failed to do so they'd return it. steckles posted:I decided to stop in at the new Value Village "Boutique" that opened in my neighborhood.

What's funny is I've frequently found better poo poo in there for the normal shelf prices that's way better find than the heavily marked up crap in the glass case. They had a loving Crosley turntable up front for 40 bucks meanwhile an actually good turntable was on the shelf in back for 12.99. But even worse than that, one of the lovely turntables upfront was a loving Fisher Price turntable. You can make this poo poo up. But aside from jacking up prices on dumb nonsense, they've also been slowly increasing the prices on clothes and things people actually need which is super lame.

Hell yeah records. Mostly new stuff I've snagged off Amazon or eBay  Debating if I want to try and get the season 3 score or not, because then I'll have all the of the Badalmenti scores for Twin Peaks.           An original 1974 release, with the original paper sleeve for the record that has some neat advertising on it, forgot to get a picture. Also the disc is in excellent condition and plays beautifully. Only spent $50 with shipping for it so I'm extremely happy about this find.    Target exclusive purple vinyl   Another Target exclusive colored vinyl, one is orange the other is green I believe?    It's a good pop album

When it comes to records, the only thing Value Village is good for is filling in all your Chuck Mangione blind spots. Those things are still only gonna run you six bucks, tops.CPL593H posted:I've been trying to get a copy of this for a while but the prices on the originals have quadrupled in price over the last couple years.

(they also did a song about Tulipmania too OHGODICAN'TSTOPPLEASEMAKEITSTOP) I do love Orville Peck, though. My lasting memory of seeing him live will always be turning to see my partner in the corner of the room with a half-empty cup of beer, taking a sip and then immediately throwing up right back into the cup, looking left, looking right and then placing it on the nearest counter before running away.

Orville should always wear the mask regardless of how incredibly handsome they are. I saw him in Denver a couple weeks before the pandemic hit and that was a great one to go out on.

I passed up 30-40 dollar copies of The Big Problem on discogs multiple times for no other reason than I didn;t feel like spending the money at the time and they come up a lot. The record isn't really in short supply there are always a bunch for sale on there and ebay. As for Savers/Value Village there's a lot to criticize but I've also had some great scores there and have found a whole bunch of rare records there over the years. I was saying this in another thread but the key to getting anything good is just going there a lot and having patience. A few days I got a whole bunch of Arrow Films blu-rays in there. They can still suck it for jacking up prices on clothes though. Also, my copy of the Phantom of the Paradise soundtrack was 15 bucks.  I'm pretty sure the the original inner from that is just the generic record company sleeve and nothing specific to the movie/album if you're wondering what it looks like.

I do all my vinyl buying online but today I went to a record store and ended up picking up Sage Francis - Personal Journals and Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Yanqui UXO. My fiancee bought me The Academy Is - Almost Here for my bday in July which means I don't get it till then. Great store, too. Dearborn Music in Dearborn, MI Edit: Holy crap the color on this vinyl is cool as heck It's the 20th anniversary edition from last year

More havedcore, had TMOC introduced to me last month and was told their big influences were Big Black and Joy Division and yep, you can hear it. There was a 30th anniversary edition released in 2019 and the label still has some in stock so that's what this is. No where on the website is it mentioned that the vinyl is green so that was a nice surprise.

I went to a record fair! It was so nice to actually browse through crates. I admit I am basic.  Not records, but they made me happy.  Original copies from 1989. The seller pointed at one and said 'yes, this is good'. He didn't comment on the other. Guess which was which.
