sunkilmoonfan Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Saul Williams' sixth studio album, MartyrLoserKing, comes out in about a week, and you can check it out now on NPR. Saul is pretty damn amazing, and Amazon's got the LP for a ridiculous $7.99. Great interview with him on Okayplayer about this record: http://www.okayplayer.com/news/saul-williams-mlk-new-lp-martyr-loser-king.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daegor Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Pre-ordered the day it went up. The songs released so far are sick, really looking forward to this. I saw him a few weeks ago on his spoken word tour with K-OS, I really enjoyed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWindBlower Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Saul is the man. When he was doing a spoken word tour, I had the opportunity to pick him up from the Detroit airport and drive him back to Ann Arbor for the show. Great guy to talk to, really intelligent and well spoken, and interesting as hell. He's been churning out amazing music for so long now. With a price tag of $7.99, you can't pass this up.

Canuckle Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Looking forward to this but I think amazon caught on and the vinyl is either not available or back up to what it looks like retail price here in Canada. And my continued search for a decent copy of Niggy Tardust at a decent price continues... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canuckle Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Depending on your definition of "decent" you may be searching a while. I don't mind paying a premium, but not at the $150 CAD + shipping rate it currently is on discogs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunkilmoonfan Posted January 26, 2016 Author Share Posted January 26, 2016 Vinyl is available again - and still $7.99! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuckle Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Ordered. Cheaper to pay the exchange, shipping and handling than order from .ca Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thievedrelic Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Well, I know why this LP was so cheap now. Literally the worst QC I have seen on a record that was not a bootleg. I am shocked this was even accepted from the factory. My copy is missing the center label on side one (of two - a single LP), has audible cracks and pops fresh out of the packaging (after brushing), and the real treat is that the center hole on the LP is drilled wider than a standard spindle hole so the record moves around on the table, and ADDITIONALLY is shaped conically...one side pushing out from the plane of the record so that it cannot sit flat on the platter. Pics: http://imgur.com/YlfD1w8 http://imgur.com/xDmBMZZ I'll be honest this is straight up unacceptable. I'm going to return this for my menial $8 back.

daegor Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 My copy is definitely better than that. Flimsy cover, but otherwise everything else is fine (including the sound quality). Return it for sure. The album itself is really good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuckle Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 My copy, while not as bad as that, is pretty poor quality as well. Audible pops, slightly warped, rough edges. But I guess you get what you pay for... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidney Crosley Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 Down to $11.99 CDN on amazon.ca Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
