the first casualty appears to be the 1975, as they've just announced to the line that it's sold out they've also set up a separate display and fast checkout for people only here for that taylor swift record this is the first time I've gone to RSD before like two pm might as well have an adventure, you know

one of the highlights of the experience, oddly enough, was being in line with hardcore swiftheads who were discovering the ups and downs of music fandom in real time the pair that were two behind us in line to get in who, even though they announced they had plenty of copies of the new swift record, were still anxious that they might not be able to get one. welcome to record collecting. the group behind us in line to check out, discussing having seen her last night in concert and discussing the art of writing setlists beyond "just playing the hits." welcome to an unhealthy obsession with comparing tour setlists and seeking out [strike]boots[/strike] [strike]RoIOs[/strike] whatever the gently caress we're calling them now.

Found all my RSD wants as well as my partners (tho that was just the Taylor Swift record and the orignal Folklore) But more importantly an original in shrink Minnie Riperton ‘Come to My Garden’

Hot diggity sent me. Got everything I wanted today aside from the Bowie 5x7" set. So many sad swifties. This in the quote below may be much favorite. iwentdoodie posted:I literally just threw it on, and I am in love. I don't speak French but this is an absolute banger of an album so far. It sounds super modern, not aged like American pop of the same vintage (probably because I didn't grow up with it.) Fe: also had to help push a dudes car and then Jumpstart it cause his battery died. Not a bad day.

I skipped out on RSD this year because the only releases I had a remote interest in was the Slum Village album and a Bruce Hornsby/Butcher Brown 12" single that I can't imagine more than like, a dozen people will ever have any interest in so I'll grab it for half off from discogs in like, a month. Besides uh, I just got a couple of boxes from eBay so I've got plenty of music to get caught up on:

I swore I wasn't going to do it this year and then spent 200 anyway. I justified it because it's all poo poo I normally wouldn't find or listen to, aside from ODB. And already adding names onto my list for future buys, especially off Psyche France. Idk why but I love this entire album, not one miss.

Missed out on RSD since I live in Stamford now and the closest record store is in Fairfield (I'm working today). I should still be able to cop The Midnight's live disc. Meanwhile, I'm only just inserting my collection into Discogs and I found out this loving record is selling for $350: https://www.discogs.com/release/2550098-Hurts-Happiness Wtf I bought this new for $20 the hell kind of goldmine am I sitting on??

Passed on RSD but bought this equalizer for forty bucks to add to my system. It matches my turntable which is an early nineties Technics. I'm pretty happy with how it sounds.

caligulamprey posted:I got most of these on vinyl but I wanna shout this out, this poo poo is a deal not to be slept on. Angel of Darkness Demons of Light 2 is an amazingly chill Wake Up, Smoke a Blunt and Drink Coffee record. I was surprised to see a copy of that Crispin Glover still on the shelf at four o'clock. Unfortunately no Macho Man. I do have a very, very good friend who snagged me a copy of Raphael Saadiq after I casually mentioned it. They also grabbed my wife the T-Swift which is funny because she mentioned sorta liking some stuff and now every time dude comes across an album in the wild he snags it for her. I believe we have the complete Swift discography at this point. Oh yeah. Happy Earth Day.  And a couple glamour shots I took.

 I got up late and therefore rolled in the afternoon to RSD and got 3 things from it and 3 things from the dollar bins. Sparks was sold out by the time I was there, but I'm not too worried about it. Got the last copy of the Sword, mostly because it's annoying to find that band on vinyl, Behind the Dykes 3 is more of a completionist purchase, and Motorhead because I am a basic bitch who doesn't have many of their albums anyways. Though if the rest of the songs on Psyche France 8 are as good as what was posted, maybe I shouldn't have passed it up. I found Volume 6 very disappointing and am slightly worried that Behind the Dykes 3 was a waste as these psych comps are veering more and more into pop territory as they continue to mine out the gems, which isn't really my jam.

Yesssssssssssssss. It could use more Satan though. That's my default note for anything, really. Feeling called out by this Residents record:  The lore behind this album was that the band was compiling a list for a Greatest Hits record, one of the members threw up all over the list, smearing the ink which muddled the list of songs into new titles. Considering the regurgitation as a pretty good theme, they jumped into the studio and started combining all the songs on the list into new compositions. caligulamprey fucked around with this message at 02:10 on Apr 24, 2023 |

RSD at my local store had a small line. Managed to snag The Residents and Sisters of Mercy; non-RSD stuff was a copy of B-52s' Mesopotamia, and from the outdoor $1 bargain bins a couple of Living Colour CDs (Vivid and Biscuits) and, inexplicably, a copy of Mechwarrior 2: Ghost Bear's Legacy expansion pack. Also had some coffee from the roaster across the street and a few cookies which were being handed out for free. Not too bad. I thought about picking up the Crispin Glover album, but I had enough already and the CDs will have to do for my C. Glover fix.

I can't wait for the new Squid album, even though the new tracks don't have much yelping. I hope it was more of a "I don't want to repeat myself" decision and not a "the vocals were too polarizing" thing, 'cause that poo poo was my favorite part.

Lost Themes 2/3 are also really good. Sadly the shop I was going to try and order a couple of the RSD releases from this morning were already sold out (the Death compilation and the Goblin disc) but that's okay because I ordered copies of "Leprosy" by Death and "Prowler in the Yard" from Relapse yesterday and this morning I poked around the Walmart site and snagged the exclusive red Kill Em All, Nirvana Unplugged, Face-lift, Prequelle by Ghost, and For Victory by Bolt Thrower, with Unplugged being the most expensive at $26  Walmart may be the devil but drat if they don't have good prices on records

For those who were lamenting with me awhile back about the lack of reasonably priced copies of Fever to Tell by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs: https://www.ebay.com/itm/404253976165 $34.35 with free shipping! I was also able to snag a copy of the Raphael Saadiq RSD offering at retail, so I am a happy girl this week.

I've had some game soundtracks on vinyl for a while and finally decided to actually get a turntable to actually play them on. Used to be the kind of person that said they wouldn't ever get a record player but it rules, really enjoying listening to music on this. Went to the local record store for record store day and managed to grab the Horse the Band release along with Alive 2007 from Daft Punk and Good Kid, M.A.A.D City.
