When you arrive in Boston, you're handed a pair of khakis, duckboots and given a haircut. For such a politically liberal place, it's oddly conformist.

Went to three stores across the weekend. Here's the haul: The Idle Race Bollywood Psychedelia Spoon Joy Division Pink Panther July Yardbirds Both Zombies records Hamilton Leithauser, Link Wray, The Litter 7" Space Project 7" set Plus a crapload of normal records. Damn I'm broke.

It does from a conceptual and design standpoint. But I think the music lends itself to a longer format. Just when you're zoning out, you have to flip.

I would have bought the 12" if they'd had it. The music makes a lot more sense in that format. Both are sold out on bullmoose now.

Yeah, the box is very flimsy. The top and bottom are already creased from doing nothing more than sitting on my table. It's a bummer as I really like music and I think it's mastered well. Hopefully they will get back to me and replace the two that are the worst off. If the stuff weren't audible, I wouldn't care...

Anybody else pick up the Space Project 7" set? Great music but my set has a ton of issues. A few are warped. Several have these pits or dimples in the vinyl, one has an audible tick through most of the song. I emailed lefse so we'll see what happens, but I'm just wondering if this was across the run or just me?

Picked this up at Amoeba earlier in the week but side two had some nasty non-fill. Thankfully Carpark is replacing it. It's definitely not mastered as hot as what I've streamed through spotify, and sounds perhaps a little mushy, but please overall.

Just wanted to say that Famous Class handled my scratched 7" awesomely and they're sending me out a fresh one..

Received my copy today and unfortunately it came scratched. Sends my stylus a jumpin'. Ugh...

Smaller runs of anything (especially printed matter and vinyl) where setup is involved are labor intensive and expensive. What I'd hope is that we get runs greater than 500 out of it. For many of these releases I'm sure there's enough demand for 1000-2000. Why not please listeners with a little more availability?

Maine can be great, especially Portland. But those winters can be looooong.

Ah, thanks. I missed that.

Sorry, it only comes in clear with black splatter.

Grabbed the splatter as well! Nice.

Anybody know what happened to the Idle Race - Birthday Party release? It's been pulled off the list at Bull moose...
