  1. Makes sense. I guess my question was more 'why isn't shoegaze over here too' rather than 'why isn't this over there', but whatever. Didn't realize that it was trendy-er. Been a fan before the "revival"...guess that makes me hipster, ha. I was hipster before it was a thing.
  2. Agreed. It's a huge grower. Still doesn't match the real thing or angel dust, but still, great album.
  3. Loving that Church as well. Hey, here's a question to bump this back to the first page - why is the Shoegaze thread in main VC message board but both this and the Black Metal threads are part of everything else?
  4. "The exclusives will be available to buy in-store only on the 20th June. Please note these are exclusive LPs and stock will be extremely limited. It will be first come first served on the day, while stocks last. One per customer. No reservations. " http://www.hmv.com/music/hmv-loves-vinyl
  5. Hey now - Mike Patton has no place in this thread...funny, but still, no place here.
  6. Right? Unfortunately I think it is mostly Canada post that is inflating the price. It is only USPS until it crosses the border.
  7. I'll be excited as soon as they offer media mail up to us Canucks
  8. Wow - that lineup. . . I'm seeing faith no more the night after they come through. You know you're old when you worry about back to back shows, ha!
  9. Understandably, and that's why I said it's a long shot - I get it. I may be largely a stranger, but I did introduce myself. We all start somewhere ,right? I've been slowly posting, when and where it's relevant. I have made a few purchases/trades to start building up my feedback (even offered to help out with a few RSD things). I haven't made any unneeded threads or otherwise acted like a noob to get known for the wrong reasons, but I am also not posting a bunch of BS just to pad my post count. I presented some information and added a request (mostly joking but part hopeful) just on the off-chance that it could happen. Even if the answer is probably no, you can't get anything if you don't ask for it, eh? Good luck with that mortgage payment, btw.
  10. If anyone is in the Austin area: Sad but true, Sunday will be the final day of our BLUEPRINTS Paramount Records focused pop-up shop in Austin, TX. We have loved our temporary second home in Billy Reid's storefront, and it's been our pleasure to stretch our eagle wings into the Lone Star State. To go out with a bit of a bang, we'll have a handful of limited edition records available each day from tomorrow to Sunday. THURSDAY The Dead Weather Live Black & Blue LP (never commercially available outside of the Vault) + The Dough Rollers “Little Lily” tricolor 7" - FRIDAY Quintron & Miss Pussycat Live Black & Blue LP and The White Stripes “Lord, Send Me An Angel” tricolor 7" - SATURDAY The Great Gatsby Soundtrack Limited Edition Gold and Platinum Double LP (first commercially available metallized records ever!) and Karen Elson “Milk & Honey” 7" on Honey Yellow vinyl - SUNDAY Flat Duo Jets split-color Go Go Harlem Baby LP and Jack White “Would You Fight For My Love?” tricolor 7" We will be doing our drawing for the winner of Volume 1 of The Rise and Fall of Paramount Records on Sunday as well, so if you haven't stopped in the store, entering the drawing now adds to the list of reasons why you should. The rest of the reasons? Well, we don't know... How about Third Man Records vinyl, merchandise and novelties (zippos! shot glasses! guitar straps and picks!)? How about spending time immersing yourself in the catalog of Paramount Records, which boasts one of the greatest musical rosters ever assembled under one roof? Maybe even taking one home to explore on your own... you'll be an expert on American music in no time. How about taking a load off and kicking back with a pair of headphones and some of our best releases? We could go on... Either way, we look forward to seeing you in our final days in Austin. Blueprints is located at 1122 West 6th Street in Billy Reid’s gallery space, and is open from 11 - 7 Thursday through Saturday and 12 - 6 on Sunday. Would love to get my hands on that Dead Weather live black and Blue or the Jack White tricolor if someone is going. . .long shot, I know, but I have a few things to trade or would try to otherwise make it worth your time.
  11. I forgive your dislike for cross-border shipping because of this
  12. Wow, not sure what gave you that impression, but very perceptive! What am I missing?
  13. I haven't picked this up yet, but How do you feel about shopping to Canada?
  14. Saw mastodon/clutch/graveyard last night. I have to say, I don't get clutch. From the crowd's reaction, I was in the minority, but I just cannot get into them. Frontman has some campy awkward energy, the rest of the band seemed like the were just going through the motions-I didn't get anything from them. I've Never really paid attention to them but thought maybe the live show would do it, but after their set...I just don't get it. Am I the only one? Graveyard killed it, mastodon killed it- I would've rather seen them both play longer and just skipped clutch.
  15. Yeah, agreed- I have passed on things I've really wanted in the past when the seller wasn't helpful. . . there will be other copies.
  16. Hawkeyes? "Release date scheduled for RSD April 18th, 2015 ***Delayed several weeks*** New date coming as soon as possible" Wouldn't be surprised if it is ready at the same time as Saturndust - "early summer".
  17. Some here in your price range: http://www.discogs.com/sell/release/389159
  18. Tonight's listening brought to you by shades of purple
  19. That acoustic show is archived now, just listened to it. Great show - get on it if you haven't heard it. As for tidal, I don't feel strongly either way, but I have no interest in streaming services. I have way too much music already.
