  1. Great record. Got mixed reviews on this board when it came out but I keep going back to it. Even more poignant since their drummer passed.
  2. Nice. I'll have to see if my local shop can get the Close repress.
  3. I sell my artwork in a tent at festivals and markets. A couple of thoughts: - Make sure you know what the sales tax req's are for your locality/state. You may have to register as a biz (sole proprietor) in order to collect tax. My town is pretty strict on this, but ymmv. If you aren't going to do this that often, you may be able to just get a special event/festival permit. Again, varies by state. - Put together an enticing display of your best items to just get people in. A bunch of crates of records doesn't really have a broad appeal. Everyone loves album art though. - Be super personable and have a good story to tell about yourself and why you're doing this. People will open up their wallets more readily when they feel like they have a connection to you. - If you can afford to get some stickers printed up or get any other custom cheap swag, do it.
  4. Anyone know the cheapest shipping option for the new Saor to the US?
  5. Anyone posted Amarok yet? Crushing, epic funeral doom. FFO: Cough, Chrch, Bell Witch, Indian, etc. https://amarok.bandcamp.com
  6. I'd prob be down for Skarntyde if this gets traction.
  7. Nice heads up on getting Spurv from Canada. Ended up being $3US cheaper than ordering from the states, even with shipping.
  8. They corrected the price and issued refunds. Can't argue with that.
  9. Yeah it seems financially unwise for him to release a trilogy on vinyl, considering the /300 of Anomie is still available. (And that album got a lot of acclaim last year.) If he were to issue an editted-down 2LP version of the new stuff, I'd buy in a heartbeat.
  10. Giant Squid was always an interesting act. Been looking forward to this.
  11. I stumbled on this album because I follow Unreqvited (Canada), who I discovered because they're on the same label as Violet Cold (Azerbaijan), and when the former posted it on FB I recognized the cover artist as a local (Colorado) that I've met a couple times and bought a few prints from. The internet is crazy. But yeah, good album.
  12. Yeah it gave me that notice as well. Then I got the text message from my cc company. *shrug*
  13. Anyone else have their cc flag Southern Lord as a fraudulent charge? No biggie as I could just PayPal but still weird.
  14. Yeah they don't do the big crescendo thing. That's not really a fault, imho.
  15. Check out Watter. They infuse acoustic & world sounds with occasional forays into heavier chords & drone-y stuff. Really lush textures and arrangements. And they only have 2 albums so it's not a big commitment.
  16. Yeah I got hung up on the first try but the second went through.
  17. I dunno. I have their complete discography and have seen them a couple times, and for the life of me can't tell you what they're "about". They sound nice and they're a fun show, but I have no idea what ethos they carry that drives them to make this style of music. This makes them distinctly different to me wrt other bands I listen to in the atmo-black/gaze/whatever genre.
