  1. Prolly should'a done this by now, but:

    Real name: 
    Eli

    Favorite Bands: 
    One for each genre, I guess: Between the Buried and Me (extreme metal in general), Circa Survive (rock/post-hardcore), Deathspell Omega (black metal), clipping. (hip hop, though Run the Jewels might take this one), Lydia (softer music), God is an Astronaut (Post-rock), The Story so Far (pop punk). That's about it, but like most people on here, there are many other bands that I hold very dear to me.

    What's your Facebook/Twitter/Tumblr etc.?: 
    tumblr is http://darcx.tumblr.com/

    Hobbies (outside of record collecting): 
    Video games (rarely these days, unfortunately), learning languages.

    Play in a band? Run a record label? Link us!:
    Nah. I do play drumset though.

    Random things you want us to know about you: 
    I'm in college and work at a gourmet hot dog place in New Orleans.

  2. Hey guys, I accidentally have come across two different copies of this record and as I don't care for variant collecting, I'd like to sell one of them.

     

    The one I'm interested in selling is the cream or "bone" pressing. It's a gatefold, with an insert of the lyrics. Plays well jacket looks fine other than very slight wear-and-tear on the spine; I'd say its condition is Very Good to Near Mint.

     

    My price is $18 shipped, I live in the US. I can offer pics upon request.

     

    Also I'm a little inexperienced in shipping records, so although I do know how (use LP mailer, bubble wrap, place vinyl in inner sleeve outside of jacket, etc.), I'd really like it if you give me details on how you want me to ship the record, just so I can be more confident.

     

    If you have a trade offer, let me know! I'm not in a dire situation for money, so come at me with them. While I'm mainly looking for my wants listed in my signature, if you think I'd like something based on that list, I'll hear you out. Thanks!

    ^^This resource will be your friend and help you not ask "noob" questions about when stuff was last repressed. ;)

    I definitely should have reworded my question...

     

    I meant to ask if there are any other represses in the works, as any pre-Violent Waves Circa Survive LP on sale at discogs is at a ridiculous price.

  4. Some of these might be listed already, but I wanted to do a little blurb on all the record stores I've been to where I live: New Orleans:

     

    My favorite:

    The Mushroom on Broadway St.

    https://www.facebook.com/mushroomnola?fref=ts

    They've got a pretty nice new section, and reasonable prices (for the most part). Their used section is organized by genre, so that's nice.

     

    A lot of people's favorite:

    Euclid Records NOLA

    https://www.facebook.com/EuclidRecordsNola?fref=ts

    HUGE selection of used stuff, also a crazy amount of 7" upstairs. It's ridiculous. As they're probably the most gone-to record store around here, some of the stuff is misplaced (in the wrong later, etc.), but they, too, have a good selection of new records and good prices. The only reason I like The Mushroom more is because they cater to my tastes a bit better.

     

    Jim Russell's on Magazine St.

    Do not go on a hot day. You will be sweating on anything you touch. Used records only; be prepared to see some bad handling (eg records stacked on top of each other -- quite high), and bad organization. You'll find some interesting stuff there, I'll give'em that, but it's not my kind of record store. People are nice though!

     

    Skully'z on Bourbon.

    This is very small and tight space, but they have a surprisingly large collection of both new and old vinyl! I was pleasantly surprised. I haven't been there enough to say more, but definitely plan on going to this one if you didn't spend all your time at Euclid or Mushroom.
