After Kevin and Jason hyped up The Cocteau Twins, I gave Heaven or Las Vegas a listen and love it. Grabbed a copy for $10 off discogs, since it has a spit seam on it. Also grabbed the Case / Lang / Veirs, since John and others talked about it a bit. Never heard any artists involved before, but damn it is good.

Her voice is simply angelic... Nice score for $10!

Yeah. It's the repress, from a store, so it's never been played (hopefully). He said it came with the split seem, and I don't really care most of the time. I'm quite happy. How are their other albums?

Heaven or Las Vegas is my favorite, followed by Milk & Kisses. Of their 80's material, Blue Bell Knoll is my favorite

You need to dive into Neko Case's discography now.

I think I did need. Any suggestions on where to start?

She doesn't have a bad album. You can really start anywhere. Maybe Middle Cyclone or Fox Confessor. Also check out The New Pornographers. She does lead vocals on some of their songs.

 

I'm sure John and Kevin will be here soon to chime in too. They're both pretty big Neko Case fans.

I'll check out Fox Confessor. I used to have a New Pornographers album when I was younger, but I don't remember how they sound at all.

Fox Confessor is a terrific place to start. Like Jared said though, all her stuff is good.

Will do!

Thats awesome "treasure" is my fav cocteau twins and I second Fox Confessor for neko case followed by blacklisted. $10 is a score I paid $25 and im not even mad, I knew I could get cheaper but I wanted to support the local mom & pop and I didn't want to wait

I made it to San Francisco safely!  It's a huge difference from Oklahoma but I should get used to it pretty quick.  Currently my whole body hurts from walking just 20 minutes from the train but that's just from years of being lazy and never exercising.

Glad to hear it! Enjoy SF, it seems awesome. One day I will make it out there just to see it. And yeah, your body will get used to walking pretty quickly.

I looked at 3 records stores, and BN, but none had it here. I have no problem paying retail to help out a store, but deals are awesome too.

My body wanted to pay $2.25 for a bus to save myself from 10 minutes of walking haha. I talked myself out of being that lazy though.

Travel this way and I'll get Tess and she can help everyone not get lost. (She also knows the best coffee place! I don't remember the name of it or what street it's on but I'm going back there!)

She is always posting pictures of delicious looking coffee on snapchat ha. Speaking of snapchat..anyone know who rockerx is on there? Whoever you are, I'm jealous of the amount of good shows you go to. And I enjoy your feed for sure.

Hey, how's everyone been? Life has been keeping me busy so I haven't had as much time to triple post in here as I have in the past. 

 

Late edit:

 

God fucking damn I have been jamming How It Feels To Be On Something all day and hadn't heard about this. Reissue made me listen to it again and I forgot how awesome it is. Pillars is my fucking jam. I love how the chorus just kinda has that droney quality to it

I am psyched on the reissue, but How It Feels is still my least favorite of theirs.

Why does no one ever get the title of this album right? :P
