  1. To add on to this, yeah while you may never have reason to identify a pressing just for yourself, it's good information to know for a few reasons: 1) If you're going to sell it, you should be able to tell what pressing it is. 2) For insurance purposes. I just use discogs as a catalogue of my records, but I make sure to always choose the correct pressing so if something happens I get the correct amount of money to replace it. It would suck to have a hard to find original pressing of a record, lose it in a fire and only get reimbursed for the most recent $20 pressing because you didn't catalogue the matrix, especially if the original sounds significantly better.
  2. I think the biggest issue is that no one actually involved with the running of the board is on any of these discords. There needs to be a way to contact them when there are issues, as I don't think anyone is even checking in more than once a week to see if the boards are up and running.
  3. I saw Sabbath on their last tour, saw Maiden last time they came through, and if I can get over some stupid mental shit I'll be seeing The Cure for the same reasons.
  4. While I can understand keeping a local database, discogs works fine for me. You can even customize fields and make notes. I keep track of what is signed that way. I recently started categorizing them in folders by genre like my collection is too.
  5. I'll have to give it a listen. This is another one I've heard people talk about before but never really given a chance.
  6. Fucking for real. Great album! While this does certainly fall into "classic rock" territory I always just think of it as a prog album which for whatever reason is a whole different area of my brain. Yes falls into there too and they've got some killer albums that I listen to less than I should.
  7. Alllllll good! Highly suggest the album though. If you've ever listened to classic rock radio as a kid you'll recognize at least one song, likely 3 or more. This album is a hit machine.
  8. So i was actually listening to the album Cosmo's Factory by Creedence Clearwater Revival. It falls either in Southern Rock (although early for that) or classic rock. So many classic songs on that puppy. Sometimes the album that perfectly fits the moment hits just right. I haven't heard the one you mentioned, so I need to get on that one.
  9. Sometimes I'll pull a random album or use the discogs app to randomly select something from my collection to listen to, and I'll think, "Well fuck. This album/artist is awesome. Why aren't I listening to it more often?" Tonight I pulled out Cosmo's Factory and was like, "Why am I not just constantly listening to CCR?" Any albums that have done that for you lately?
  10. Not to mention the person making the new Discord is a mod on like...all the Reddit vinyl subs and spams them with affiliate links.
  11. Fuck yeah!! Stoked. When this actually happens can someone make a real thread for it?
  12. I think we all go through this from time to time to an extent. I know I do. Sometimes it ends up with me breaking out some old stuff that I haven't listened to in a while, sometimes I find something new to love in an entirely new genre that I hadn't really looked into before. I was going through this for a little while and then recently I suddenly got way into reggae after never really listening to it in the past.
  13. There have been some rumors that the retail version is a "translucent black" as well. Sounds like just a heavy smoke type variant to me if true, but if it is it'll look nice.
  14. Honestly, I'm waiting on a couple last hot represses and then I can finally dump my vinyl subreddits. There are some folks on here I enjoy chatting with, but I can't wait for it to be 100% casual chat shit and picking up stuff that I don't have any attachment to, rather than lying in wait for limited drops for super high demand stuff.
  15. Ah, yeah, see you needed to add it to your cart 5 seconds before it went up. There's your problem.
  16. What's the word, @danny ? Is there not someone checking in on the boards from time to time to see if they're up and running?
  17. Not to mention it just happened to occur during one of the most anticipated represses in a loooooong time was happening. This board is a joke. Days on end of issues with no one checking in or fixing it.
