Travis said maybe this week on... LEt's pray! haha I want it now!

you are the shittiest troll, ever.

Guys, I was lookin on Hot Topic Web Site and I can't find the record anywhere... Damn, I'm pretty new on buying from Hot Topic and I do not now quite well how it works, hehe, Just got tired of paying 60-80 bucks for a record on eBay haha!... 

Gosh Is gorgeous!, thanks Travis, Just Ordered finally!

Hey Guys, I've been collecting Vinyl, like... for almost 10 years, My collection is almost 500 "New Era" records, and almost 1500 vintage records (You know, 60's, 70's and 80's, some 90's).

I don't have any issue with sound quality of vintage, as I know that some of them have affected sound through these years... And Actually Almosyt all of them sound quite awesome still!

But then is the thing with new vinyl... I started my collection with some 12" singles, mainly because I like big format art and they look amazing when they are pictured sleeves.

Almost all the Singles sound awesome, Then Bought "Love, Angel, Music, Baby" by Gwen Stefani, and my mind was blown away!, The soun quality was superb, by far most of anything I have ever listened to.

Every song had this amazing sounds coming out the grooves, non distortion and the biggest base and crystal clear highs I have ever experienced... 

But then, Bought Rihanna's "Good Girl Gone Bad", And my excitment for the great sounf of new vinyl was fading, every single song aproaching to the center of the record sounded so distorted my ears started to bleed (Ok, not that much, but sounds quite terrible, distorted, and to much high's), Was pretty sad, cuz actually My faves (songs) were the one's affected... I still kept buying records and some of them sound AWESOME!, bit there are others that sounds bad, with the same prob... Well, thought that was something I had to deal with now that I'm collecting Vinyl... and then bought "Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge" of MCR... I WANTED TO DIE!!! The SOUNDS is so crappy My head exploded (in a bad way), I was so pissed a record couldn't sound so awful!... 

So, the thing here is... wich are the records you think have problems with bad sounding or bad mastering, and actually is prettyfrustrating that record companies don't give an F for sound quiality on some releases, I know they just release on this format for the "nostalgyc" market, but... let's face it, they need to improve in what they are selling, because Vinyl is pretty expensive.

Some of the records I realize have sound issues of my collection are these:

- MCR "Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge"
- Christina Aguilera - "Stripped" (Center songs sound terrible)
- Ke$ha - ANIMAL (same as Stripped)
- Rihanna - Good Girl Gone Bad (Same)
- Kraftwerk - The Mix (Has an invisible scratch that keeps a song on repeat, the same error on all 3 copies i got)
- Ellie Goulding - Halcyon (Volume is so low)
- Fun. - Some Nights (Volume Down, but it works quite well turning it up)
- Pink - The Thruth about love (Center songs distorted)
- Tegan and Sara (sounds kinda Low-fi for my taste compared to the digital (wich I'm afraid to say I enjoyed more)...

And those are the one's I can remeber at the time, Let me know if you have some of these, do you find them with the same bad sound, do you have other releases that sounds crappy?, let me know!

Classy!!! Lovin' it!!!

Hey guys I'm new on Vinyl Collective, Here Is my "Music/Bed Room", At first I got a costom made Storage for 120 records and CD's, with a place to put the TT on and the Amp device... But as you know, when you start collecting vinyl... everything goes out of control... and became this messy room... Need to get one of those Expedit shelves, Sucks there is no IKEA on my country.











Excuse the crappy pics, My camera has the worst perspective ever haha, yeah, the Chihuahua is incluided.

Travis said maybe this week on... LEt's pray! haha I want it now!

this is my current storage look 
 

Nice! Don't see too many people on here with that AM! promo insert.

I just stumbled upon these pics, loved the idea and thought they are worth sharing:


 

 

Buying records for the sole purpose of reselling them on eBay is a dick move. I think 99% of people will agree to this.

Aren't you afraid that you'll roll off the bed and get wedged between the wall and the bed and on top of the records?
And I will not laugh...I am not THAT much of an asshole.

you missed the boat my friend. theres a thread for this there has been for about a week.

Really? I find "Animal" The song, sounds kinda blurish... Not that great as "Your love is my drug", I was expenting more of that song on vinyl.

I'm still surprised straight males listen to Taylor swift, you learn things everyday

Agreed!

if the record hasn't already been damaged/grooveworn, then i get absolutely zero inner groove distortion with an audio-technica at120e (or an at440mla, but why break the bank when you don't need to)

It looks freakin' awesome!! Glad didn't got a chance to buy the Cd, now I can own it on Vinyl!

WOW!!! is amazing! Expecting to catch it at HT site! I can't hardly wait!

i guess i expect more jangly and crisper high end from this type of record, its just sludgy.  ill give my stylus a clean and relisten but i was thoroughly underwhelmed by this pressing
