  1. That's great, thanks for posting the pics. I want to go there to meet Mark Pickerel (Screaming Trees, Truly, Solo) who I'm led to believe works there !
  2. Just got off the phone with HT. All sorted. I don't think it helped matters that I've got a Welsh accent, and my address is seriously un-pronounceable !
  3. Being a stay-at-home dad, I've gotten pretty handy in the kitchen over the last year or so. A few weeks ago my wife got a book on baking for her birthday, and I've discovered a passion for baking bread ! In the last week I have baked my own flour wraps, a wholemeal cob loaf, a fougasse (Italian tear-and-share oregano thing), and these awesome bacon and cheese loaves. In fact I have just this minute sent the wife out to pick up some ingredients for my next bake !
  4. I tried explaining to her that the only number I had was on the back of my card, and that it was just the telephone banking number..... I'm gonna get my wife to phone back later... I haven't got the patience.
  5. I've just been trying to do this verbal confirmation by telephone..... I give the lady all of my details, card no. etc... and then she wants the telephone number of my bank ! WTF ? So I tell her I don't know, and she's all "we cannot complete your order without your banks phone number". Seriously. Raging. Goddamn frustrating.
  6. Yeah, cheers for the heads-up. Had never used HT before, but when I saw the 50% discount off international shipping I couldn't resist !!
  7. Terminator 2 OST wont be hitting the shops until mid-September due to a delay at the pressing plant. (I asked Silva Screen on Twitter this morning).
  8. OP updated with press release, new single and video link. The pre-order price from Heavenly is £9.99
  9. Looks like there will be an LP called "Phantom Radio" in October, and a winter tour of Europe. This was discussed on KEXP radio. Good time to be a Lanegan fan !! :-D
  10. PO now up on Rough Trade for £8.99 *Edit* Seems to have been removed now...
  11. Just saw this on the Onewhiskey forum and cant see it mentioned here... The new Mark Lanegan Band EP, titled 'No Bells On Sunday' will be available on 25th August 2014 from Heavenly Recordings. Not much info so far, but still great news ! ***Edit 07/15/14*** Press release, new video/single from Heavenly Recordings... Pre-order also up on Heavenly
  12. Yeah, was at Spillers and Diverse. Perhaps it only made it to Wales ! :-)
  13. Sorry if I've misunderstood you, but it was definately available over here on RSD as I bought a copy in Newport ! But yes, your probably right, leftover RSD stock being distributed maybe.
  14. Sorry to drag up an old thread, but thought people might like to know that this seems to be getting a general release on 14th July. Still on red vinyl.
  15. Picked up the single disc version of LZ 1 today and I'm really pleased, it sounds fantastic.
  16. OK, so I might have to eat a bit of crow on this one... (not a whole crow though, just a bit). My amp is a Teac A-R600, which has this 'Loudness' feature button on it. It gives the lower frequencies a boost, and generally makes everything sound quite meaty... which I like, and I always have it on. Anyway, this morning I gave this LP a spin without this Loudness feature on, and it is a vast improvement. (Nothing mind-blowing though). So I was probably a bit quick to slag this release off..... BUT, I will say, I have about 600 LP's, and this is the only one where I need to turn the loudness feature off on the amp. (For reference, I am using a Goldring 1042 stylus on a Rega P2, and Kef Cresta 30 floorstanding speakers)
  17. Just checked mine, and it is the same. It's advertised as a 12 page booklet, and it does indeed have 12 pages. But it is missing the lyrics for those songs, for whatever reason.
  18. There's some useless information right there. Cheers. *edit* Sorry about that. Having a bad day. My Original press was in pretty beat up condition. Still got £40 for it though. No complaints there. The complaint is that this new press sounds hideous to me. :-(
  19. Was out shopping with the wife today and I spot this in HMV, and the wife gives me permission to grab one. £24.99. Now is it just me or does anyone else think that it sounds, well, offensive to the ears ? Seriously, I feel like a complete idiot for selling my original press. Damn.
  20. This last week I gots me... Beck - Morning Phase (How awesome does this thing sound?!!!) Roky Erickson - Gremlins Have Pictures (LITA press, going cheap on Amazon) Overkill - Taking Over (Green vinyl - I won this in a contest from Music On Vinyl ! )
  21. Apologies for dragging up an old thread..... But I just won a copy of this from Music On Vinyl ! Good start to the weekend !
  22. I have one that lives in my garden. He's called Spiney Norm.
  23. This week I have mostly been purchasing LPs by artists beginning with the letter A. Admiral Sir Cloudesley Shovel - Check 'em Before You Wreck 'em Afghan Whigs - Black Love Asian Dub Foundation - Community Music
  24. I saw Gonga about 10 years ago when they were first starting out, I remember going for a beer with them before the gig and they were buzzing because they'd landed the support slot for Nick Oliveri's Mondo Generator! They had a vocalist back then too, their first album is a pretty good stoner rock record.
