As a consolation gift I was handed a stack of cash and told to go to the record store. So I hit my favorite spot in town Crossroads and grabbed everything that would fit into my bag: I am extremely jealous of that Profondo Rosso and Phantom of the Paradise you have. Love both movies and the scores are loving amazing. Also howdy vinyl Goons! I got a Victrola for Xmas (still waiting for it to actually arrive because lol Amazon) and I've already bought some records to show off  The first CoF album I heard.....Jesus Christ almost 20 years ago     Trv Norwegian Black Metal on pretty purple vinyl    Double disc and the back of the second is engraved with the logo  The cobalt vinyl looks sooo good in person  And my favorite Roxy Music album.

Hell yeah, it's payday and I just ordered a bunch of records from Amazon/Target/Ebay. And I got this beauty in today   Somehow the limited edition gold was cheaper than the standard black so I got the gold. Also I love colored vinyl.

My adventures in vinyl continue as more records I've ordered trickle in. No idea why the limited edition gold was cheaper than the standard black but I am a sucker for colored vinyl so it worked out  My best friend bought me this one Hell yeah Emperor! Waiting on my copy of In the Nightside Eclipse to arrive still   My three favorite S&G albums    A maxi-single my friend ordered for me because he thought it was the full album lol   And finally  The Target Exclusive edition with a Silver vinyl because as previously stated, I'm a sucker for colored vinyl.

After checking my eBay purchases, looks like the most I've spent on a single record was $60 for a fancy copy of the Hellraiser 3 score because I was super high and thought it was Hellraiser 2. Don't get high and buy records kids I almost paid close to $100 with shipping for an album until I waited a couple days and a US seller had it. Now they just need to ship the god drat thing. I want my Reichman album god drat it!

Hell yeah! Also OMG I laughed so loving hard just now as it was playing and I heard the chorus to Age of Aquarius  this loving rules.E: Yeah this rules, listened to it while writing this post lol Anyway lemme dump my recent mail arrivals:   the other side is actually mostly black with a bit of blue, looks pretty cool. And to whoever was saying this album sounded weird and was looking for my input, after listening to the vinyl and the digital copy I have, it's just the album, it's meant to sound that way lol.   Kinda pissed because I love this score but side B is ever so slightly warped so some tracks have a bit of a wobbly sound.  Sadly the digital edition has a couple extra songs I hoped would make it onto the vinyl but they didn't. Ah well, I can always enjoy "Saturday Night" via streaming  Sadly the photo doesn't really do the disc color justice, it looks so loving nice in person. Available at Target.     Fun fact: I'm pretty sure I killed any chance I had at a second date with a cute goth girl one time because I told her I prefered Peter Murphy's solo work to Bauhaus.   Another disc that pops way more in person  It's blue!  This one honestly feels like the most "Premium" record I've bought, really nice stock for the cover, a full sleeve sized booklet with lyrics and pictures.  Clear with a red splatter, looks cool as hell   It is hella blue  Speaking of weird electronic poo poo I love     Green vinyl that looks sick as hell  I've got a couple more odds and ends coming but I'll share em when they arrive

Turbinosamente posted:Tis the season to clean out hobbies and collections. I've just cleaned out the family vhs tapes, because I don't have it in me to collect another dead format. No treasures to be had there either. I inherited what was left of my dad's VHS collection before he moved (and later passed) and it's just sitting in a bookcase in my room, taking up space. I keep meaning to just toss em all on the curb with a "Free" sign on them but  Might keep the old WWF tapes, if only for the nostalgia, because I'm sure as hell not going to try and hook up the VCR I have, but part of me says "If you're getting rid of all of them, get rid of ALL OF THEM." poo poo format too honestly, although cheap horror movies on VHS benefited from the lack of visual sharpness that came with DVD and eventually HD.

Turbinosamente posted:VHS is on the rise for collectability right now. A lot of those cheap horror films never got a later release for example and people want them now. Yours might be worth checking if they're worth something. My mother's big blockbuster rom coms and common easily available stuff like the 90s Lost in Space movie and A Christmas Story not so much, but I knew there wouldn't be rare gems going in. Heck, for all I know the old Star Wars trilogy VHS set could be worth something solely because it was before Lucas went back and reedited the films. Most of what I've got is the Universal monster stuff and some random other crap, nothing particularly rare or valuable and while making a little cash off them has crossed my mind, I'm also lazy as gently caress and would be happy to just have them be out of my possession. And hot tip to anyone looking to get the original Star Wars trilogy without the special edition fuckery (without spending an arm and a leg for the VHS) I got a bluray from https://sloppysecondsales.com/ Bootleg as hell? Absolutely (all 3 are on one bluray) but they look really good and I can watch Star Wars like I remember as a wee child in the early 90's and all it cost me was $20 or so with shipping. They've got some other good stuff on there, especially if you're looking for obscure Japanese stuff.

Oh hey lemme show off the new additions to the collection. This is such a great Goblin score for one of the rare modern Argento movie that doesn't suck.  My favorite horror movie after Hellraiser  One of the few times Argento didn't work with Goblin/Simonetti and still a killer score.  Dan from Game Grumps has a second band and I like it    I adore Anathema, their old death doom stuff and their newer prog stuff too.  Hello I am a sadboy.    Another 90's death doom album  SLAYER!  My favorite fake live album (Boingo Alive is pretty close)

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

The worst shipping cost I've seen so far was something like $20/$25 from the UK. FOR A $15 RECORD. So shout out to whoever I bought my copy of "East of the Sun" in Germany from. $30 total with shipping. And while I generally avoid pre-orders I absolutely smashed the pre-order button on the vinyl release of the Splatterhouse arcade soundtrack. Jokes on me though because that poo poo isn't coming out till August  https://spacelab9.com/products/splatterhouse-soundtrack got the "Mouldering Purple"

Hooray the rest of the albums I ordered from Vinyl Pursuit arrived!   Don't worry the sticker is just there to rep the good folks who included a full package of disc sleeves and I think album covers with this order.  Giorgio  And finally, not from Canada but the fine folks at Revolver who keep roping me into spending large sums of money for Type O Negative records. $42 impulse buy

Pulling all the double albums out of the cubes and into the trays also helped a lot. Current count is 162 with 2 more coming tomorrow and 10 more in various states of pre-order/awaiting shipment. But at least I got a couple of the Oingo Boingo reissues   So-Lo and Dark at the End are arriving tomorrow despite being ordered at the same time from the same seller on eBay Now they just need to get the additional reprints of Only a Lad in stock.

I unfortunately own one picture disc. It's a Bathory record so it at least looks cool and it played fine the one time I played it but man I really would have preferred a regular version but gently caress me, apparently "Blood, Fire, Death" is only easily available on picture disc.

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
