    dartmike got a reaction from ethereal in PO NOW: Bon Iver - Emma, Forever Ago (ltd reissue)   
    I did ask Secretly Store about this and received this reply: "The new limited edition is simply a re-issue of the original master. "

    Ooh, this has me intrigued. What was the rumour? A new pressing of Idler Wheel and Extraordinary?

    I don't know if anyone on this board knows Jenn Grant. Ba Da Bing is taking pre-orders now on her 6th full-length album.
    http://grapefruitrecordclub.com/products/grant-jenn-paradise-lp-pre-order
     
    It's also up on her Bandcamp, where you can stream the first single:
    https://jenngrant.bandcamp.com/album/paradise
     
    Her Bandcamp site also allows streaming from some of her previous albums. If you're looking to try a couple tracks my faves from her first album (which can be streamed in full on Bandcamp) are White Horses and Dreamer. Her last album, Compostela, can also be streamed on the site. My favourite on that one is Trailer Park. Unfortunately The Beautiful Wild's not up for streaming right now, it's a real gem of an album.
     
    Jenn's a great Canadian talent. She tours a lot too, and is well worth checking out if she comes to your neck of the woods.

    I once ordered a Schoolboy Q CD from Top Dawg. It was advertised as being signed as well. Here's what the signature on it looked like:

     
    It didn't bother me at all, as that's not why I bought it. I just thought it was funny. The Top Dawg camp needs to work on their signatures!

    dartmike got a reaction from vinyl addict in Best/Worst Customer Service from a Distro/Label?   
    How about a positive experience?
     
    I bought a new LP at the local store yesterday. It was supposed to include a download, but my copy did not. I emailed the label, Ribbon Music, to let them know and ask for a download. It was just a general info@ address so I figured it would take several days to hear back from them and that there was a decent shot I'd hear nothing within a week and have to pirate the digital copy. But someone from Ribbon replied two minutes later to let me know she'd handle it and she sent a link to the files two minutes after that.
     
    Super impressed with Ribbon Music's customer service.

    dartmike got a reaction from Bull Moose in PO: Plants and Animals 'Waltzed in from the Rumbling'   
    Not sure if this band has fans here. They had a very solid album in Parc Avenue a while back and have had more divided response on their couple albums since then, but I still like them and the first single for the new one sounds good.

    dartmike got a reaction from Sidney Crosley in Top 10 Albums by Local/Hometown Artists   
    I think my all-time favourite Toronto album is probably Sarah Harmer's 'You Were Here.'
     
    I don't really know much Halifax-area music from before the 90s. My favourite albums from the early to mid-90s alt. boom are:
    Jale - Dreamcake Sloan - Twice Removed Hardship Post - Somebody Spoke   In terms of more recent stuff these would be my faves: Jenn Grant - The Beautiful Wild Old and Weird - What I Saw Mauno - Rough Master Mike O'Neill - Wild Lines Dark For Dark - Warboats Gabrielle Papillon - The Tempest of Old Gianna Lauren - On Personhood Jennah Barry - Young Men Kim Harris - Only the Mighty Quiet Parade - s/t  
    My faves so far in 2016 from Halifax are:
    Nap Eyes - Thought Rock Fish Scale Ronok Sarkar - Waiting For Alice   There should be several more good ones coming.
