  1. Story time. Back in the early 2000s I was a manager of several indie movie theaters in the Philly suburb area. I randomly came across Translating The Name in 2004 and was floored. Played it on repeat all the time and got a fellow co-worker hooked on it too. In 2005 I saw that Saosin was playing at the Trocadero, a fairly small music venue in Philly. At this point I knew the band had a new singer, so I didn't expect the same vocal style, but I was still stoked to see the band live. I went with the same co-worker mentioned above. The set was pretty decent, but lacked the same vocal presence that the former singer Anthony could bring. After Saosin played my co-worker and I went to the upper part of the venue to grab a beer. He lit up a cigarette and we stood there chatting. A minute later some kid walks up to us and asks for a light from my friend. He hands over the lighter, the two look at each other, and the interaction went as such... Kid: "Brian?" Co-worker: "Oh hey... Anthony!" Co-worker (to me): "Do you remember Mike Green who used to work at the theater in Doylestown? This is his little brother Anthony." Me: "Oh, yeah. Hey man, nice to meet you" (shakes hands) At this point the two of them continued chatting and I stood there for a solid 2 minutes repeating in my head... "Anthony. Anthony. Anthony Green. Anthony Green? ANTHONY FUCKING GREEN!" Me: "HOLY SHIT! YOU'RE ANTHONY GREEN!" Brian: "Uhhh, so what?" Me to Brian: "Dude, this is Anthony Green, formerly of SAOSIN and now Circa Survive. We've played Translating The Name non-stop. That's his fucking voice!" Brian: "Oh shit." The three of us chatted for a good hour about his brother, his time in Saosin, and new band Circa Survive. Turns out Anthony grew up in the same town as us and we knew his older brother without even realizing it. Over the years we would grab drinks with Anthony here and there in town and he often hooked us up with the Circa Survive show guest list or photo passes. I miss those days.

  12. This went out to Lauren Records Record Club subscribers a week or two ago. I’m not that into Signals Midwest but I really dug his songs on this, I recommend taking a listen even if you’re not already an existing SM head.

  21. That's pretty impressive! I was lucky enough to find a copy of Nothing Gold (1st Press, Yellow) at Value Village for like $3 a few months back, but that's the only NFG vinyl actually own a copy of, until now at least.

  23. Thanks for calling out that So Many Ways was on this! I wasn't going to go for this since I have the picture disc already, but by adding the track they made me want to consider it a new/different version that I want to add to the discography collection!

  29. http://wiretaprecords.limitedrun.com/products/677813-the-casket-lottery-short-songs-for-end-times-12-lp 150 - Color in Color (Dark Pink with Neon Magenta) - Wiretap Variant 150 - Half and Half - Big Scary Monsters Variant 110 - Cloudy - Band Variant 110 - 2 color side A, side B - Band Variant 150 - Black vinyl (Retail Variant) weird variant choices so far. Maybe the two band variants will make more sense.

  36. Here here! Prices of houses are DUMB. One month the banks say my house is worth $250,000, then some stupid recession comes along and they say my house is worth $80,000. And then the banks whine and cry that they have “no money,” yet they own EVERYTHING.. Dumb. 😆

    Pre-amp question.

    The Vinyl Music On is an all-in-one unit, so it does have an internal pre-amp and amp. In (very) short, the pre-amp amplifies the signal from the needle, and the amp powers the speakers on the unit. All turntables need to go through a pre-amp of some sort before it gets to the amp itself. In your case, everything is happening within the turntable, and you're just pushing the sound to the powered speakers with the RCA cable. If it gets the job done and sounds good to you, that's all matters!
