I’ve been desperately waiting for round 2 of all these awesome new grunge-y non-bro bands that released albums in 2015-2017. Hoping for a new All Dogs LP soon too.

What other bands do you recommend? Charly is great and so is All Dogs. 

Do other stores pick these up? Everyone seems to shit on SRC, and if I can get this elsewhere I will. 

Weezer is great at covering songs. 

They are not so good at writing their own songs. 

I wish they would cover Weezer Blue/Pinkerton/Everything Will Be All Right In the End Weezer. 

That was a good band.

Can't believe theyve been a band for 30 years, christ im old.

I measure age in the number of drummers they've had.

Got mine a few weeks ago.

 

Why Aren't I Home pressing sounds good. The heat sensitive cover sucks and the logo is just glued on it or something and it looks like it can fall off every moment.

WYAINE album cover is very bad. The logo is kinda blurred or something. Almost like low resolution but without the pixels.

It's a gatefold jacket. The original album is 33rpm and doesn't really sound good.

The instumental album is 45rpm and sounds better.

 

Because he shipped my records in 2 seperate orders, although i asked him to combine it and he said ok, I had to pay customs twice.

In the end I payed $190 for 3 record that are probably the worst quality in my collection.

 

I'm happy that I can finally spin them again (had the original pressings) and that WAIH sounds good.

And the music is still amazing.

That's sucks to hear. I'm glad I canceled my order. In this case, a handmade cover really wasn't the worth the hassle...especially if the quality is bad. Would rather just have a traditional sleeve. 

Some random stuff ... shipping via media mail for actual cost. 

Slater Kinney : No Cities To Love (black pressing - sealed) : $14

Courtney Barnett : The Double EP: A Sea Of Split Peas : (black pressing - played twice ) $13 

Traveling Wilburys Vol 1 : (180 gram repress, played once) $18 

Bruce Springsteen : Born in the USA (original press, record and sleeve with inserts NRMT) : $8

Breeders : Wait In The Car (7" red version - sealed) : $15

Loretta Lynn : We've Come A Long Way, Baby (original press, sealed) : $5

Take 6 : Doo Be Doo Wop Bop! (original press, sealed, 1989 Grammy hype sticker) : $10

Brand New : I'm A Nightmare (sealed, single w/ etched b-side) : $5

Merry Christmas all you mofos. I’ve enjoyed this thread and almost as much as listening to this album. And because I’m so suggestible every time the needle drops I get a hankering for Taco Bell.

I realized about 30 minutes after I posed that....that I probably looked like an idiot.

 

S'all good.

 

It was my turn.

No worries. Much respect for a username based on a kaiju.

I like songs.

 

So...there's 2.5 LPs worth of him introducing the songs?

For one night only, he channeled Jerry Garcia and it's 20 minute acoustic jam band versions of 16 songs. When he played My Father's House you had plenty of time to leave the theater for better beer.

Prime price is down to $52.08. Now we’re talkin’.

That's a much better price. Huge fan but don't know how often I'd listen to this emotionally crushing performance. 

Today Fat Cat had new represses. They sold out but it’s still available on the band’s bandcamp page.

There was a surprising amount of stock at one of the record stores I went to. They were even surprised about how much was left this late at night. Ended up getting all the records I wanted!! Also, looks like Discogs price for Manchester is going down?

I planned on going to my store at 6am for their 10am opening. It was 3 degrees so I skipped it. Walked in at 10:15 expecting a line and it was dead. 

Leftovers aren’t surprising...many of the pressing counts were very high. 

Did anyone find The Wombats? Or any online leads?

i was diligent in patience and several weeks ago ordered Africa when it popped up. got a shipping notice. tracker (eventually) said it was delivered on monday. it was not. win some, lose some in the vinyl game. oh well.

I emailed Urban Outfitters and they said the Africa 7" got pushed back a week until the 7th for anyone wondering

Was the preorder all of them or will some make it to the stores?
