Excellent album. As a bonus, he is putting Journey on side D!? Sweet! That was one of the first synthwave songs I ever heard.

i posted in the regular RSD thread, but my local store has 2 copies of marcy playground and 1 copy of the cure acoustic i can grab if anyone needs...shipping is from canada...i believe they were 45 canadian each

45 Canadian including Shipping? Like 33 USD then. If so, I will take a Marcy Playground, PM me for paypal or whatever you need.

The label that put the record out has been putting them up in waves on eBay for $25 shipped.  Not sure if they'll put anymore (I think they've put up 60 so far), but keep an eye out.

I shall do that, thanks for the info.

Any sign of normal cost Marcy Playground? I doubt it by now. I guess that is what I get when I have other important things to do on the weekend!

Freakin' Catalina Wine Mixer Record Store Day.

I logged in, waited and refreshed 10 minutes before up at Bull Moose and could not get one. So if anyone has an extra or can get a copy of Marcy's Playgound LP, let me know please and we can work out the details. Thanks.

Bullmoose Rsd sales go live at 10 am so in an hour I'd suggest logging in before that 

Ah, ok. Thanks for the info. I will give that a shot then first!

Did not get a chance to go for the Marcy Playground LP. If anyone has a copy or lives near a Bull Moose store, let me know.  According to the website, they have some in stock at most of the stores.

Hoping for Cyanide Sisters repress announcement....one can dream, right?

 

THIS. Only one I do not have. Wayyyyyyy to expensive on Discogs when I see it.

The Pre-order song "Memory" from Com Truise is great! Sounds like Galactic Melt. Back towards the roots!

The music is only part of the story. As a Graphic Designer, the artwork is the other part of the story for me.

Sure, CD's generally have some booklet with the art, but it is quite small. For 20 or 30 bucks, you are not only buying the music and usually the MP3 dowload code, but the beautiful artwork the accompanies the record, specifically gatefolds. Some of that artwork is incredible and is often used to help give you a "visual cue" or theme of the music you are listening to; it tells a story. It truly can enhance the experience. Sometimes even the artwork on a CD is not the same as the vinyl version. Try listening to a good album and look at the artwork. You may be surprised at the results.

Sure, some records/bands do not utilize this concept as much as others, especially single LP's with no gatefolds, but the sleeves can talk as well to make up for it.

The UO on Ponce has a decent selection/amount of vinyl, but do not generally see too much on sale. I try to go Wednesdays before trivia night at The Local. I might have to venture out into Buckhead Betty territory then.

Corey Feldman - Go 4 It (feat Snoop Dogg) b/w Everybody - 7"   QTY: 1000

Seriously? We might be at the end of the road.

Will grab The War on Drugs and Marcy Playground though.

I will take a look later, but yeah, hope everything gets better for you.

Will there be any while he is touring? I got tickets to see him in March, maybe some will be at his shows?

It is almost $80 shipped. I really, really want this, but I am not paying that much. Why there isn't a cheaper shipping option to make it $45-$50?

The black is more limited though...

True. I got the oxblood because all my other City & Colour albums are colored and wanted to keep the vibe. I might sell the black later and find a colored copy.

I ordered the Euro Oxblood and they ended up sending me black. They just refunded my money and said keep the vinyl. Not thrilled it is black, but hey, got a free record I guess!

I was curious about how MOV handles their vinyl releases and found this article on their page.

Interesting read and gives me high hopes for the quality of this release!

MOV did a release of Static-X - Wisconsin Death Trip several months ago. I decided to give it a listen the other day and it sounded excellent, so I am on board with MOV. I will probably get the black version of this Mudvayne Vinyl.

Just stumbled on this at MoV, Mudvane L.D. 50 on Blue Vinyl releasing on 2/10/17 in Europe.

I found the Amazon.co.uk pre-order link, but it is saying black vinyl: https://www.amazon.co.uk/LD50-Gatefold-sleeve-black-vinyl/dp/B01MRZDEVB/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1483225293&sr=8-1&keywords=Mudvayne+vinyl

I have wanted this on vinyl for years. I am almost always conservative about my purchases and get the ones I want lower later on. I just have a feeling that with the small amount printed and the amount of time between, this will not get any cheaper later, so I jumped on it.

But yeah, 1xLP eh? I wonder how it is going to sound with 50 mins of music...interesting.

he has said that more dates will be added, like hopefully Vancouver.

Hopefully the Southeast gets a stop somewhere as well....preferably Atlanta.

Gin Blossoms...nice! I grew up with this 90's Rock and Alternative music and they were very good live. I personally am excited for this. Just add in a repress or reissue of Hootie and the Blowfish "Cracked Rear View" and we are golden!
