Ok, that's true. I always love their artwork, the "heavyness" and thickness etc.. Best example for a label with relatively high prices (at least here in Europe), shitty packaging and not even including DL-codes is KRANKY. It's a fucking shame because they have so many great releases. Anyway, back to topic

I doubt that...it's Southern Lord

According to O'Malleys Twitter: Quote Southern Lord Facebookpage:

IMO you definitely chose the wrong city in Germany. Frankfurt is flooded with record stores whose shelfs are filled to 90 % with used 80's-releases. If you're in Sachsenhausen, you can check out Sick Wreckords and No. 2. They're both in the same street. I don't know what kind of music you enjoy. No. 2 has kind of every genre and Sick Wreckords has its focus on Punk, Garage, Rockabilly... Oh, and Freebase Records moved to Sachsenhausen last year, aswell. They're no. 1 in terms of electronic music and pretty close to the other 2 stores. In Bornheim you have Lucky Star Records but I've only payed them once a visit, so I can't really tell you anything about them. Sadly enough most records I bought in a store in Frankfurt was at Saturn, which is a gigantic electronic store chain. Their stuff is overpriced but I found some cool stuff there (Earth - AoD,DoL (green), Efrim Menuck - High Gospel etc.). You can find the store at MyZeil.

I almost wrote off the band TOY but I checked them out because the rest of the line up at Paredes de Coura was pretty weak. What a great band!

Greetings from Frankfurt!

Jesus, if I saw that shirt somewhere I'd buy the hell out of it regardless of the size...I couldn't even find pictures on the Ithica-Forum but at least I could find some posts mentioning the Mogwai vs Batman shirts, so they have to exist! Yeah, I read about Martin not being able to tour with the guys in the States. Wasn't he substituted by the Error's drummer? I definitely need to see the guys again! The last really, really loud show I saw was Swans in Frankfurt. But I was sick at that time and had to leave the concert earlier... Btw: Has this been mentioned here? http://instagram.com/p/col62wxMY_/ Edit: haha just saw that they're playing in February again in Frankfurt! Score

My favorite band! Saw them 4 times now (3 times at the same venue). They definitely "lost their loudness". The last two times I saw them (2011) you could listen to their show w/o earplugs etc. The first time I saw them it was so incredibly loud...when they played "Satan" and the drums kicked in towards the end of the song I thought my heart would stop beating. haha Anyway: I'm getting a longboard and it doesn't have any stupid stuff painted on it. So I was thinking to leave it as it is or let someone paint something on it. I remember the band having a Batman-Mogwai-Shirt/Hoodie ages ago but I can't find any pictures. The only one I could find is this here: But if I remember correctly they used this Batman-logo (or a similar one): Does anyone have more info, a picture etc. (or did I just dream about that stuff)?

BoC vinyl records I own: Before 2013: 0 After 2013: 7 (?) Those are some great news!!

Soooo jealous...I'm hoping for represses, too! Recent purchases: Toy - Toy Sarah Neufeld - Hero Brother

Is Vol. 6 the last one? I loved the first 2(~3) TPBs but they kind of lost with me Vol. 4. Maybe I'll give it another try when I return from my holidays. It's actually exactly the opposite of how I feel about Sweet Tooth. I thought that the first 2 TPBs were ok at best but the 3rd one was so good and now I love this series (and Lemire)!

Explosions in the Sky - Travels in Constants (Vol. 21): The Rescue

Sigur Rós - Kveikur ("limited edition") ordered: Bongripper - Great Barrier Reefer Saltland - I Thought It Was Us But It Was All (Hopefully they'll arrive before I leave for vacation...) pre-ordered: Esmerine - Dalmak

Awesome, man! I think my Oliver is something between level 56 and 58. Do you mean by saying "I played as 1 character" that you played only Oliver and never used your familiars? I never use my familiars during boss battles but I never thought of being the healer in the group and let the others fight. Maybe I'll try it! But this also reminds me that I have insufficient mana and hp supplies (about 20 of each) which means that I'll have to leave the dungeon and make the whole walkthrough again... My favourite RPGs are: Final Fantasy VII and IX. I need to play them again! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zaC_xP6esJE so good!

wow this sounds terrible even if it's "different" to their other stuff.

What level were your characters when you beat the game? Yesterday I tried beating the game. The white witch was no prob but those Zodiarchs raped my whole party in a few seconds...I'm just sick of grinding

Seeing them on 3rd of September with Birds in Row. Let's see what they'll have at the merch table

Man, I really like those pics! Nice work! Actually I'm a crappy photographer but I only use the camera when I'm hiking (~every 2 years or so). So anyone into landscape photography? If so, please post pictures! Here are 4 of my favorites taken during hiking trips: Note: I'm not 100% sure that I took the next 2 pictures. We were 3 guys and two of us were taking pictures with the same camera...

Never order a "Diesel" in Germany! You'll get Beer mixed with Coke...

Russian Circles, Converge, Omega Massif

Tubeplus.me works on ps3. I use it to watch king of the hill all the time.

I wonder who decided about that track order... Well, it might work on a CD

Constellation Records posted this on Facebook: "NEW RELEASE: ESMERINE - 'DALMAK' In stores September 3, available for pre-order now" http://cstrecords.com/cst096/ PACKAGING NOTES CD comes in a custom gatefold jacket printed on thick 24pt. paperboard with a printed CD dust sleeve. LP is pressed on 180 gram virgin vinyl at Optimal (Germany) and comes in a heavyweight jacket with black poly-lined audiophile dust sleeve, credit insert, pull-out art poster and download code for 320 kbps MP3 copy of the album. There's also a new song streaming on the site and it just blew me away. Actually that's one of the best Esmerine-tracks I've heard! Also: Constellation Records is imo the best label when it comes to packaging and artwork!

Anyone from Europe ever dealt with all_your_music on Ebay? They're based in California, have pretty low prices and they only charge about 3 Euros to ship to Germany (which I think is pretty odd...also the prices are shown in GBP). Well, my actual question is: How's their packaging job? Since it's a pretty long way for the record to arrive here I don't want to spend so much money on a new cereal bowl.

Hm don't know what to think about this. I don't play online frequently on my PS3 (Last time I played online was a little bit of Killzone 3 and coop-action in Borderlands 2 with a friend). I guess it'll depend on the price.
