BigFactory posted:They’re kinda like a Rough Trade. I’ve never heard anything bad about their exclusives or anything. Their colored exclusives are often ten bucks more than the regular versions of those and from experience I can tell you that quality control varies wildly. And that store tends to overprice their records to begin with. What I will say about them is that their clearance bin often has good poo poo in there and sometimes at rock bottom prices. A lot of long forgotten RSD stuff ends up getting shuffled into those bins for under ten bucks. Anyway after enough bad experiences I don't buy any of their exclusives anymore.

Yeah the trick with Newbury is to wait until their stuff goes on sale. You can get "exclusive" presses for cheap. https://www.newburycomics.com/collections/newbury-exclusives-1499-and-under E: good stuff there includes Neko Case, Destroyer, Thou, Doomriders, Xiu Xiu, Mavis Staples, Nails, John Carpenter, Portrayal of Guilt, Converge Hot Diggity! fucked around with this message at 21:58 on May 16, 2023 |

William Tyler and Kieran Hebden (Four Tet) announced a collaboration 12" coming out in June and released the first track today. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STCzXEUu_dc It's a remix of Gloria Loring's Darkness Darkness which itself was a cover (I think?) of The Youngbloods in the late 60s. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FRKv-3_bfVo Up for preorder here: https://psychichotline.bandcamp.com/album/darkness-darkness-no-services

This poo poo's getting really out of hand [one day haul] And yes, that is the only acceptable / one "true" variant of Abacab's cover.  I, Butthole posted:man the LCD Soundsystem "final" show boxset sounds so good and is v v v pretty, but gently caress as the owner of a single turntable I hate that it's A/C B/D E/H F/I G/J or coupled or whatever they call it, but given that I've somehow lost my blu-ray copy of the concert I'm just happy to have a version again I have to take them all out of the box at the same time this is the most annoying poo poo ever jfc

drat, Yes Album and "I'm Your Man", along with the rest that's quite a score I need to start building out my Leonard Cohen, I only have Old Ideas and that's like my least favorite of his modern output

Small lunch time haul. Was a little late on a lot of old Priest and Sabbath used that came in last week. Hopefully the stuff next week is good. They had a copy of George Harrisons "All Things Must Pass" but it was unsurprisingly snatched up the day they posted it.

tried preordering the newly-announced blur record last night, since the special edition has a 7" of bonus tracks, and the website loving stalls out when checking out it also appears to be eating poo poo when you try to create an account. the first single from it is real nice tho

It's a super early pre-order so I would hope they're holding out to press until a little later (so I'm rooting for you) Read After Burning posted:I love that feeling. This and just picking random things for $4 because I like the cover. "Something with a cool cover released in the late 80s or early 90s" is how I discovered Skunk, Hugo Largo, and Hetch Hetchy just throwing random poo poo onto discogs orders.

I don't really know the logistics for big label releases but I'd also assume the benefit of a large pre-order window is that once you've got the master plate ready to go you can eyeball the demand and just crank some out ahead of the date... at least for something like the special colors I know I could go from audio to mastering to pressing in around the same time as an indie artist and that's starting from nothing

IG-88 posted:Well then you know more than me lol I think it's more about getting the master done and then "can you cut the line" and I imagine a huge band/label can do both pretty easily. For the indies yeah, you're probably looking at a 3-4 month lead time at the least but also once the plant has your master it's nothing to say "gonna need more of that" this is in my limited research in the US at least... and going by the cracker island gently caress up (the supplier got the exclusive colors mixed up and then the Warner shop had to re-ship the exclusive colors) they got that re-pressed and shipped within 2 months

They had some interesting things, but they definitely dropped off hard. Like Wishing (If I Had a Photograph of You) is a fantastic song. But then their guitarist left, and you get dreck like She's Got It which is one of the worst songs ever.

my long national nightmare of not buying yet another album with damon albarn on it is now over, firefox worked where chrome and my usual browser which I am mildly embarrassed to admit is an old firefox fork (waterfox classic) that I keep around for some plugin business that stopped working on more recent browsers and so I can put my tabs below the address bar WHERE THEY BELONG failed

There was a record fair in town yesterday. Quite a few vendors and good turnout. I only checked out one vendor as they had everything I needed and quickly ran out of money. I was stoked to finally find a copy of The Feelies 'only life'. It closes out with a solid cover of the Velvet Underground's 'What Goes On'. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7OBPa9viyKs  Arbor Labor Union - Yonder. They sound like they spent too much time listening to the Meat Puppets (not possible). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k0o3NHgwsus They also threw in the flag decal decal for free.

Roxy Music is hands down one of the best debut albums I've ever heard. haljordan posted:I know none of this is vintage stuff, but here's today's haul (starting upper left and going clockwise): Have you heard an original pressing of Oracular Spectacular? The first two albums have these hype stickers bragging about the remasters and I've always wondered if they're any better. It seems weird to me that a couple albums of their vintage would be remastered so soon (yes, I know when they came out but the reissues followed only a couple years after their initial releases). On a related note, I was in a Newbury Comics a few months back and overheard some teenagers talking about "discovering" MGMT so I'm officially a mummy.
