Here's my Grouper collection: Top left copy is the clear /100 variant of Way Their Crept, Cover The Window And Walls is the black marbled variant. Bottom right is the artist edition of Helen's last LP /75.

I'm listening to the full album again tonight, reading through all the lyrics. Legitimately did not connect the title of this album with the diagnosis of stage four cancer. I know that's what the album's about, but for some reason it didn't click in my head until I heard the lyric in "Displacement". It broke my heart. I'm sure this is old news, I just wanted to share. I can't get over this album.

Additionally, I'm inquiring about if this is a standard repress, and if they'd let Sly do an exclusive variant.

Morning all. At the last minute I said fuck it and went to the GUK show. I'm glad I did, because they were really damn good. I really enjoyed myself, which I need right now. The first opener was a local band, kinda generic 2006ish music, and Brick and Mortar were terrible. No way anyone likes that sort of music. At least they had a semi-decent stage presence, but the laptop "player" was way over the top and annoying.

Kind of wish they had made them solid pink and blue, to at least keep it a bit different from the original press. Oh well, now more people get to enjoy how good looking this pair is together.

Got my 10th Anniversary Sam's Town today. Listened through it just now. Definite improvement over the CD, which I played a bit here and there, switching between both. Much better clarity and separation in the mids with clear and strong bass. I'm not sure if it's my system, but things sounded great until it got really loud and congested, like on This River Is Wild, and When You Were Young and it all seemed to fall apart. I felt like I was hearing a lot of noise and/or distortion during these parts of songs. Otherwise, clear upgrade in sonics. LPs are in cardboard "sleeves" in book, which really could have used a few more pages. Well, really there are no pages. Why not? It's the 10th anniversary edition! No essays on the band, or the making of the record, vault photos, nothing! Just the credits on the sleeves. My LPs looked like they came from a thrift store shelf just stored in the cardboard jacket. Scuffs all over the playing surface and the edges of both records looked scuffed all around the edges. What the hell? After a clean, there was no improvement on the looks, but thankfully I didn't have egregious noise, but there was slight surface noise with a fair share of stray pops and clicks, but thankfully not enough to ruin the experience. The unreleased song was a great addition, but I didn't even get through the terrible dance mix bonus track. I would have preferred they leave that off and moved the songs across the four sides. Not a big deal as I just don't have to play and it's at the end. im definitely going to revisit this release again before I make a judgement, but right now it feels cool, but not great. And it could have and should have been great.

They're here!!! I picked up the package today. It'll be a bit before I have time to get everybody's stuff out.... I'm going to try to start getting them all ready to go Friday night. But it might not be until sometime next week that i get them in the mail. School and work, man. But they're here! I haven't even opened them yet.

I voted for Gore, Kerry, Obama twice and Sanders in the Primary. Debbie Wasserman whatever called the election for Hillary the day before the CA primary was held. I still went anyway even though she essentially made my vote useless. I was so happy when she resigned in disgrace. I can't wait to see the new chairwomen go down in flames for feeding debate questions to Hillary in advance. Will her best friends at CNN even question her about it? Doubtful, any investigation could expose them for being involved. The Democratic party I believed in back in my 20s was a terrible lie. After reading these emails I will never vote for a Democrat with any ties to the Clinton's or their agenda.

That's great. Really happy for them because they deserve it. They constantly push the boundaries and it definitely shows on this album. It's so dang catchy and every member stEpped up big time.

The Democrats have somehow twisted the the media into becoming the fourth branch of government. They are working for the White House whether they realize it or not. They are selling a message that America is racist, poor, and controlled by evil old white men who keep all the money. Democrats are the party of unity, and republicans are the party of rich white racists. I'm sorry, but that is just not true. It's a disgusting lie actually. Of course there are bad people out there with awful beliefs, but they don't represent any large portion of America. According to HRC Saudi Arabia and Qatar are funding ISIS and other radical Sunni groups. They also donate tens of millions of dollars to Clinton's foundation. That is pretty scary to think about. It's not impossible to think the Clinton's are being influenced by the same people who are influencing the destruction of Western Civilization. Maybe she will blame Thomas Jefferson for this one.

Yeah, hold off until the music industry takes a break from releasing stuff.

I like the blobs quite a bit, but I think I'm still sticking with #WAFFLES. Both of the Invada mailorder variants have been meh to me - this one screams 'Murica.

To add to this, I've been in communication with Beggars directly: " Hi Eric We are planning on releasing Oceansize on vinyl in the near future. Thanks so much for your interest though. All the best Lesley Bleakley Director of Catalogue & Archive "

paging mondo. let's make it happen.

big big love to @EHughes527 & @highfives for this more than awesome news. Y'all the fucking best.

Astronoid “Air” LP Pre-order: mid-October, 2016. Release: December 2nd, 2016. The hard-earned vinyl release of Astronoid "Air."

A massively impressive debut has led in only a few months time to nearly 800 Bandcamp collections + a nearly sold out CD first-pressing. Requested hundreds of times ... Astronoid will now hit wax for the first time ever. * “Air” on heavyweight 180-gram+ LP. * Mastered specifically for vinyl from the original mixes by the band themselves. * Heavyweight 350gsm single-pocket jacket and printed inner sleeve, including the lyrics available for the first time-ever. Layouts done by the band themselves. * Vinyl colors: - OPAQUE SKY BLUE & WHITE SWIRL [65 copies USA/Canada, 135 copies Rest of the World] - OPAQUE SKY BLUE [65 copies USA/Canada, 135 copies Rest of the World] - BLACK [55 copies USA/Canada, 95 copies Rest of the World]

http://www.blankbanshee.com/music.html Vinyl, CD, and Cassette reissues are coming soon via Hologram Bay. So keep your eyes peeled here: http://hologrambay.bigcartel.com No word yet on when they are going up for sale.

I recently bought this set on ebay for $100 and it is amazing. I highly recommend it for anyone wanting to get all the hits in one fell swoop. Heck it even has the Network 7" in it that you didn't know you always wanted.

you know 180g doesn't mean shit right? lol

Snagged that deluxe first thing this morning. Easiest $20 PPD I've parted with in quite some time. I've been waiting a good while for this. Their last album didn't amass rave reviews or coveted 10/10 ratings, but it hit the spot for me and continues to be an album I thoroughly enjoy revisiting even today. Hoping this new album is even half as good / infectious / memorable, for me.

You did. I wish I went later, and missed both openers. Oh well. It was pretty much empty until GUK went on, then the place got packed. I just stood in the back against a wall (small venue) to alleviate my anxiety. GUK made it all go away though. Grabbed a Guilt Show too, but didn't have enough money to help anyone else out :(.

Dammit was hoping for something good this week since I saw this early

Mike says it's happening next year!

Definitely going to need that Gary Clark Jr. release!

That sums me up quite well as well, I don't know about covered but there are not many flat surfaces in my house that don't have a turntable on, the Dining table and toilets are about it and the Dining table has been brought into service as a temporary work area on occasion when my wife has been out. And that Garrard still needs a SME on it, to a British man for that not to be so is an affront to Queen and Country. We Brits don't get jingoistic about much but a Garrard without a SME well it's just not cricket.

Got this from Derek Billingsley (Insta: @constantxgrind) during his guest spot in Charlotte on Monday.

Hope the best for you Travis, if only I could snag that job

My MerchNow pre-order finally arrived today just before I left for the parental units' house, and it came with a CD copy(!) so I listened to it twice from start to finish while driving. Shit slays like nobody's business. Also, the coke bottle/mint splatter variant looks gorgeous, and I love love love the shirt that I got with it all. I'm a happy DGD fan.

How was the show? Aside from Fantastic Planet, what was played?

Just picked up a store edition of first ditch effort, the splatter looks rad! Fat Mike is at the store serving cake to everyone in celebration haha.

Label only pic... Neon Gold Records. Nowhere near complete and most likely never will be (considering how much those early Marina & the Diamonds 7" go for). If anyone has the Magic Man - You Are Here 10" you're willing to part with, let me know. I'm willing to pay a decent (not crazy) amount for it. 12": Haerts - Giving Up (single; shaped) The Knocks - Comfortable (EP; dark purple) 10": ASTR - Varsity (EP; white) Cathedrals - S/T (EP; plum) Haim - Forever (EP) Seinabo Sey - For Madeleine (EP; gold) St. Lucia - S/T (EP) Tigertown - Lonely Cities (EP; bright orange) 7": Alex Winston - Careless (single; pink) Dom - Living in America (single; white) Fort Lean - Sunsick (single) Icona Pop - Manners (single) Lovelife - Your New Beloved (single) MØ - Pilgrim (single) The Naked and Famous - Young Blood (single) Penguin Prison - Golden Train (single) St. Lucia - Before the Dive (single) Sir Sly - Ghost (single; white)
