Mineral vinyl
TheGhostOfRandySavage replied to throwingstars's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I'll still give it a try, I'll let you guys know how it goes when it arrives. Won't be for a little bit though, he said the next mailing is in two weeks. -

Did they? I have no idea. Anyone else? Edit: on page 17 of this thread someone said they just generally had problems with the Mineral records ordered this way being warped. -
Moving: What to do about my records?
TheGhostOfRandySavage replied to sugarballs's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
When I moved my collection cross-country packed them pretty tightly in cardboard boxes sized to fit them and just made sure not to put anything heavy on top of them. Also made sure that nothing would roll into/onto them and they made it fine. We even took our time and did it over 10 days and it was pretty warm... I was worried about warping at first, that's why I made sure to pack them pretty tightly. I think my boxes were only 12.5" wide though so they didn't really have any space to move. You might pack some sized cardboard down the sides to keep them from shifting. Anyway, my two cents. -

Fuck yes! Jeff still has some of those Blue copies of The Power of Failing (limited to 50 according to discogs...? Doesn't sound right.) if people are interested. I just got one Looks like he's all sold out of End Serenading though. The Power of Failing on blue is $40...kind of seems worth it though, especially if it's really limited to 50. -

I'm a funeral director. I mean, the dead bodies thing is part of the job I knew about going into it. Just saying sometimes people don't get paid what they deserve for what they do.- 169,220 replies

Yeah dude, Electric Wizard is a top ten band for me for sure. If you're into that stuff and somehow haven't heard of Sleep, you should get into them too. Noticed some stuff going back off out of stock recently.- 2,164 replies

Ordered Electric Wizard - Black Masses the other day, it arrived and was black purple split and silver purple split. Pretty stoked on that, figured it would just be black wax. Also, fucking...$16 for it? Such a good deal. Got a copy of Brand New - Your Favorite Weapon to make shipping free too.- 2,164 replies

Not sure if anyone has listed stores in Portland, OR, and forgive me if they have...I'm not going through 16 pages to find out, but... Mississippi Records 5202 N Albina Ave, Portland, OR 97217 This place is great, they sell turntables, amps, receivers, do repairs, and all kinds of stuff in addition to vinyl and cassettes. They've got a great selection here, and by far the best discount used selection I've seen in town. Great selection of "punk/modern" and a pretty good metal section. Their big thing is weird foreign and blues stuff though, as they run their own label and reissue some of that stuff/put together comps. Super friendly staff. I may be a little biased since they're my neighborhood shop, so I frequent them the most. Almost forgot. GREAT prices on their used records, which are usually sprinkled in with the new releases. Little Axe Records 5012 NE 28th Ave, Portland, OR 97211 I actually haven't been in here, but they used to be connected with Mississippi records, maybe they still are, I don't know. I've heard some really good stuff about them from people I trust though. Second Ave. Records These guys are scattered throughout Portland and they're pretty alright. Mostly newer stuff and reissues though. Pretty friendly staff. Music Millenium 3158 E Burnside St, Portland, OR 97214 I've only been here two or three times, but I really like it (it's a little far away from my abode.) They have a great selection and do in-store shows. Pretty decent prices too.

I can't justify ordering from gohastings any more. I've ordered from them twice, and both times they sent the vinyl in a bubble mailer and the covers were incredibly jacked up. (I only ordered the second time because it had been about two years and I had forgotten about my first problem with them.) When I called them about my order they gave me the run around, refusing to refund my money even though I explained to them that I didn't want them to send me another bubble mailer with a pretty well worthless record inside. Finally they agreed to refund my money after about 20 minutes on the phone, and said "This is just a one time thing, we don't usually do this," to which I replied, "No problem, I won't be ordering from you again." /rant Anyway, sorry about that. Haven't checked out the album yet but I love Cloud Nothings so I'll probably end up ordering this.

Thanks guys, unfortunately my ear for that type of scream isn't as good as it used to be and I can't quite make out the lyrics, otherwise I would have posted something alluding the the lyrics. The runout groove only says: "We love ski dogs" A - on side 1 and "You should to" with no letter on side 2 I was pretty well sold on it being that Misanthropic split, but it only has one song per side, not two. (also after listening to Misanthropic, it doesn't sound like them.) As to the artwork, it looks like an old depiction of the plague, there are many similar ones out there and they would be public domain at this point so Misanthropic using it doesn't necessarily mean no one else can which is a bummer because it makes my search harder. All in all, I think this is going to end up being some local upstate new york band that only like...3 people would know what it is, but I asked some people back there who I thought would know and they had no idea. Again, thank you guys for the help.

Records You Are Lucky To Own
TheGhostOfRandySavage replied to almightyseancore's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Most of my records that I feel lucky to have are because I got good deals on them, here they are: Got these at a tiny show a few years back and the guys were super nice and signed them for me. Got this guy at a garage sale for $1.00 I just feel lucky to have gotten a copy of this the day after RSD when it was released. As you can see from the sticker, I picked this dude up for $10 and was super stoked about it! Didn't realize I WAS lucky to own this until yesterday. Who knew? This guy was a $2 find at a garage sale. First pressing from the year of my birth, hooray! Well, that's it. I have a couple other good deals I picked up, but I don't really care too much for the records themselves, so it isn't worth the effort to post them. -
