PO: Lucero- When You Found Me
derek123 replied to thebigbasic's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I feel similar, but I also enjoyed among the ghosts. Some really great tunes on that record. I just didn’t dig the Memphis blues thing they had going for a while, but it was awesome they experimented with it. -
Tom Petty Wildflowers 180 Gram?
derek123 replied to Matt123's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Completely agree. 3 LPs, great packaging, it sounds killer, and it’s Wildflowers. 180 gram or not, this is an awesome reissue and $40 is more than reasonable. I can’t believe anyone is complaining about this even a little bit. -
PO: Smashing Pumpkins - CYR
derek123 replied to Justinadamk's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I’ve loved the Smashing Pumpkins for a long, long time. If I absolutely had to say, I guess they’re my favorite band and have been for 26 years. I’ve been very optimistic with all of their recent releases and have found some good in all of them. I thought Silvery Sometimes off Shiny and Oh So Bright was pretty good and a couple others weren’t bad. I also listened to Oceania again for the first time in years and enjoyed that and will have to spin Monuments as well, but the 4 songs they’ve released for this new record have been a big bummer for me. I completely agree with everyone’s confusion on such a synth heavy sound with 3 guitars and programmed drums when Jimmy fucking Chamberlain is in your band. I’ll give it a chance, but so far The Colour of Love is just palatable. The others Ill do without. Hopefully we’ll get some rockers.- 43 replies

PO Now: The National - I Am Easy To Find
derek123 replied to lethalenforcer's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Absolutely. That track is killer. There are definitely a couple snoozers, but this is far from one of them. Great record. -
Looking for the first press. Silk screen jacket on clear vinyl. Get at me!
-
Got mine last week, but haven’t been able to listen because my receiver is in the shop. The rainbow splatter looks killer though! Surprised no one has added this to Discogs yet. Tried to add it to my collection, but only the files are up. No LP.

Do all of the glitter copy’s of Pinkshinyultrablast Everything Else Matters sound bad or is it just the amber? Anyone have experience with the gray (Starry Skys)? I’m eyeing it at AC30, but I don’t want to drop that much if it sounds like butt.
-
Well shit. I listened to EEM and it’s great. I’d love to have a copy, but you’re right. Everything I have found is $$. AC30 has the “Starry” variant for 50gbp. Pretty pricey. Anyone know how that one sounds? Any word on a repress?
-
Ah ok, that makes sense. I definitely want to check out Everything Else Matters then. I just picked up Blankenberge-More and have jammed it quite a bit. Killer record. Surprised I’ve just now come across them. And holy shit I’m glad I snagged that Kestrels record. That thing is wild. New jam with Mascis is awesome too. Edit: Just checking my order confirmation for the new Kestrels and it says Transparent blue w/ rainbow splatter. Going back to the Darla store, the option now says clear w/rainbow splatter. I don’t really care it looks great, just wondering if there was a mix up.

I’ve seen a lot of talk about Pinkshinyultrablast and had heard of them over the years so I finally checked them out a while back. I listened to a bit of Miserable Miracles and wasn’t super into it. But, I saw Grandfeathered used at my local shop today and snagged it. Wasn’t expecting much, but I was very pleasantly surprised. Great record. I’ll probably dig into their other stuff now. Maybe give Miracles another shot. Anyway, I’ve checked out suggestions on this thread for a long time and most of what I like has already been beat to death here, but a band I haven’t seen mentioned is Blankenberge. They’re also Russian. It’s probably been suggested, but they’re great.

Tom Petty Wildflowers 180 Gram?
derek123 replied to Matt123's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Anyone know where this is going to be sold? I need to know! (get it?) Tried to check out the Hoffman forum link and it didn’t work for me. -
I see where you’re coming from. Personally I think the record sounds close to, if not absolutely perfect. I’m a drummer and I’m sort of nit picky sometimes. The snare sound is killer. On another note, I do have a thing for packaging and artwork. I can’t wait to see the back and inside the gatefold. The cover is great. I really like how they stuck with the minimal art approach and have the running time on there. Or at least have stuck with that sort of style since You’d prefer..I like when bands have a style and stay with it. It drove me crazy when Hot Water Music stopped using Sinclair for their cover art on some of their newer releases.

Looking for Blankenberge - More and Radiogaze. Any color will do!
-
Looking for all of the Lords 7”s. The Lords: -Moral Darkness -The House that Lords Built - Maximum Louisville split series w/ Coliseum -Split w/ In Tongues These aren’t terribly hard to find, but I’m hoping to find someone with a couple of these or all of them to buy at once. DM me!

PO Now: Whirr - Feels Like You (out on oct 31)

Gotcha! Can you say where this will be sold if it is a release? I’m assuming their bandcamp since the site is down (for now anyway). -

I’m not much for social media, so I also have no idea where this came from or where to lurk on that date. Where is this?
