Let It Fold You.

I would have gone with Let You Unfold It

What a narc. My collection is so mint, I rarely even pick my records up from the post office.

Actually, jokes aside, there was this dude in a Facebook group for Boris who was gloating about keeping his latest purchases not only sealed, but contained within their mailers. I'm not sure if he thought that exposure to air would somehow taint the music but he received so much flack for the post – rightfully so – that he initially got defensive over other people "telling [him] how to spend [his] money", but quickly removed his posts when he couldn't keep up with the text abuse. I'll never forget that guy. One of his main interests on Facebook was sourdough bread.

I remember how long SRC sat on copies of the original pressing of this...took soo long to sell, and that was a pressing of 1,000 I believe. Lobster miiiiight've overshot the pressing numbers on this.

None. I listen to everything. I have a separate cube on my shelf of "new records I haven't listened to yet." and work through those first. Eventually everything gets some love.

i don't have any unsealed records because i made them all into vinyl record bowls and you have to unseal them

I just sell the records I don't listen to anymore.

LETS FUCKING GOOOOO

Didn't have much going on this weekend, so I put a small dent in my backlog. There's Someone Inside Your House - Decent who-dunnit slasher, made for a good end of the week movie. Kristy - Watched this because it takes place on Thanksgiving, but that's pretty arbitrary to the plot. Kind of a home invasion / slasher. I liked this quite a bit. The lead is great, it's paced well and it kept me interested the whole way through. The Feast - This was good. A bit of a slow burn with a nice payoff. Black Friday - This was dumb, but fun. It's exactly the type of movie you'd expect based on the plot synopsis and poster. Really fun Bruce Campbell performance! I did kind of lose interest at about the hour mark, but it's something that's easy to half watch. Knocking - It was fine. I feel like I've seen enough movies that are similar that I'd kind of already knew how it was going to play out (and it pretty much played out how I thought it would). Last Night in Soho - I really dug this.

I swear there was a guy on this messaging board years ago who said he bought 3 copies of every record: 1 to play, 1 to keep sealed and sell at the top of market value for himself, and 1 to keep sealed and sell at the top of market value to put toward his kids' college tuitions. It was almost definitely a troll account, but the concept of that is still hilarious to me.

This was happening more and more in Third Man Record groups before I left most. Leaving the record in the mailer doesn't make it better!

It’s not a “band” gold version, but I’m guessing it was supposed to be. Labels are the normal release labels. Still super limited and awesome and I grabbed one as well, hahah

I was disappointed when I missed the Guns 10" last time. Thanks. Got the Last Gang lp yesterday - it's rock solid.

Rebuke 7" back up on yellow, violet and gold Ataris 10" Guns N Wankers NUFAN Vol 2 NOFX - FTK NOFX 7IOTM on black /400

It's like a car, once you let it leave the lot (packaging) it drops a fucking lot in value so I just never take anything out of the package.. I stream the album while looking at the sealed vinyl beauty in my hands and sometimes I even imagine just how much better it would sound but this boy here is not leaving the lot! I got 2k vinyl so I don't need to tell you how good my retirement is going to be once I cash in 🤑

That cover art absolutely slays and I'm very excited for this Got the mustard/gold splatter merge thing

I think this is my AOTY.

I have literally hundreds and hundreds of 7-inches I've never listened to. I ended up making a Spotify playlist of all of my singles, those included, so I could at least hear the songs digitally.

Them piecemealing all these represses is really annoying. The shipping is getting out of hand.

I will quit after I (finally) get a Vinyl Collective: Collector of the Month award.

Yet here you are, posting on a forum called Vinyl Collective. 👀

Hot take: S/T is the only TJ album worth revisiting. Don’t @ me. But I guess also feel free to if you firmly believe otherwise and can voice an opinion like an adult.

Hi everyone - my name is Seb (French living in the UK (London)). I was wondering what is the vinyl among your collection that you haven't opened/listened to yet? Very often it's a record bought during a frenetic shopping session and been put aside... and then another serious buying spree happened! Unfortunately I have many of those... but I would say a record from Pierre Henry (experimental music) "Mariage de la feuille et du cliché!"
