  1. Oh man you missed the Pylon repress a couple years ago? Everyone should own TAITA if they're a Thrice fan!
  2. Full album is now streaming! http://bigtakeover.com/news/album-premiere-protection-by-face-to-face Edit: Just got the email to download the album as well.
  3. The clear has been sold out for awhile. But heads up to anyone who wanted the black 180g. It seems like some popped in stock. Dont know if thats a fuck up, but Id grab it now if you didn't before.
  4. That's why they put *mini* on the flyer. The winter fair has always been that small. The summer ones are the bigger ones.
  5. Last time I saw them was like 9 years ago on their last US tour. They realllllly dont like coming to the states apparently. But that show looked amazing! Would love to see them again.
  6. Ummm yeah just gonna throw this out there but if anyone has an extra ticket to the NYC show, let a man know!
  7. Dont mind me... Not sure why I thought that it didn't make the album.
  8. Bout to buy from Import CD. Never even heard of this place. Anyone confirm how the press is?
  9. Scored Destroyer at a vinyl fair a few years ago for $5... Best $5 I ever spent!
  10. Since Mass Appeal is helping release it, Im hoping they help distribute it.
  11. J Dilla vocal album featuring Snoop Dogg, Bilal, Kokane; production by Dilla, Madlib, Pete Rock, Hi-tek, Nottz, House Shoes, Supa Dave West, Bink! and Karriem Riggins. The Estate of James Yancey has revived J Dilla’s longstanding company PayJay as a functioning imprint to release Dilla’s long lost vocal album, The Diary on April 15th, in conjunction with Mass Appeal Records. Initially intended for release in 2002, The Diary is the final batch of unissued material that Dilla had assembled for release during his lifetime, lending crucial insight into the producer’s prowess and thought process in the period leading up to his break with the major label system and the extremely fertile period that followed (which encompassed the making of the canonical classics Ruff Draft, Jaylib, and Donuts). The Diary features vocal performances by J Dilla, Snoop Dogg, Bilal, Kokane, Frank and Dank, Nottz and Boogie, over production by Dilla, Madlib, Pete Rock, Hi-tek, Nottz, House Shoes, Supa Dave West, Bink! and Karriem Riggins. The album was announced today in an interview with Nas on Zane Lowe’s show on Beats1 with the never-before-heard song “The Introduction.” The Diary was Dilla’s attempt to take advantage of the attention afforded him after his brightest period as a behind-the-scenes hit-maker and influencer. However, the project stalled and the album was literally shelved, the reels languishing in storage in Detroit as a relocated Dilla began a creative renaissance in Los Angeles. The Diary in this, its final form, was painstakingly assembled over a ten year period from two-track mixdowns and multi-track masters found in J Dilla’s archives after his death in 2006. The completion of The Diary was overseen by The Estate of James Yancey’s Creative Director Eothen Alapatt, long term general manager of Stones Throw Records and A&R for Donuts and Jaylib, whose previous archival Dilla work includes the expanded Ruff Draft issue from 2008. The Estate of James Yancey is overseen by California’s Probate Court on behalf of Yancey’s four heirs – his mother, Maureen “Madukes” Yancey, his brother John “Illa J” Yancey and his two daughters, Ja’Mya Yancey and Ty-monae Whitlow. The musical landscape has shifted mightily in the wake of J Dilla’s final album. Donuts’ release and Dilla’s subsequent death forced a critical and fan-level reexamination of his work and importance on the global stage. J Dilla was marginalized in the years leading up to his death, as he, battling the rare blood disorder that would eventually take his life, eschewed the major label-led music industry where he created or aided some of the music industry’s brightest – D’angelo, Erykah Badu, Common – in the late 90s and early 00s, moved to California from his native Detroit and dug deep into the deepest recesses of his creative spirit to offer a new take on hip hop’s decades old art form of sampling. After Donuts, the likes of Kanye West and Pharrel Williams could be heard echoing words read on a fan’s shirt from one of J Dilla’s last European tours in 2005: J Dilla Changed My Life. They were not the only ones: Justin Timberlake opines openly that the world needs more Dilla. J Dilla became a critical signpost for these stars, and others: the archetype figure that birthed everything they loved and cared for in hip-hop. The Diary Tracklist: 01. The Introduction 02.

  12. Was supposed to get this on Monday. It left Jersey City Saturday night and hasn't been scanned once ever since. I realllllly hate USPS sometimes.
  13. Indie-rap mainstay Aesop Rock has announced his new album, The Impossible Kid, dropping April 29th on Rhymesayers Entertainment, marking his first solo venture since 2012’s Skelethon. On the new album, Aesop continues finding new ways to improve on the skills that have made him one of the kings of indie hip-hop. His creative process now includes a newfound willingness to open up about his personal life, going deep on topics like depression, his sometimes rocky relationship with his family, and the turbulent handful of years following a friend’s death that culminated in Aesop leaving his adopted home of San Francisco to live in a barn out in the woods, where he recorded the foundations of The Impossible Kid. There’s also moments of levity though, as Aesop taps into the funny side of his persona that he suppressed during the period where being taken as a serious lyricist was more of a priority. Like Skelethon, Aesop exercised complete creative control over every aspect of the album, from the production (which he handled himself, with instrumental help from Philly’s Grimace Federation) to conceptualizing the cover art by his friend Alex Pardee. Vinyl Packaging includes 2xLP Green & Pink Neon Colored Vinyl, Custom Die Cut Jacket, 3’x4’ Double Sided Fold Out Poster, Two Illustrated Record Sleeves, Full Album Lyrics & Free Digital Download Card. All orders will receive a digital download of the full album including bonus tracks “Syrup feat. Homeboy Sandman & Open Mike Eagle” &“Dorks [blockhead Remix]” at midnight of release.

  14. Just want them to do an Anthem and Pezcore repress as well.
  15. Other than a different pressing, different colored cover.... Nothing. It's just a redux, which is just another name for a repress for an OOP album.
  16. For 2 heavily sought out albums that have been out of press for almost a decade. Im actually more surprised these didn't sell out faster.
