There's a middle age vibe for sure on this LP. T-Shirt, La Dee Da, Sunday Rain and the title track are among the tracks that have that strong Beatles, Motorhead, and Led Zep vibe. But Run and The Line still give is that signature Foo sound. Sky Is A Neighborhood gives me a Black Mountain vibe which Grohl has said he loves. It's a very unique track to hear from them and was a breath of fresh air.  Arrows (my favorite track on the album) has a unique Foo/Queen blend. The instrumentation and production are spot in on. If they would've toned down the classic rock vibes just a tad, I'd probably put it up there with the first few albums. That being said, I enjoyed this album ALOT. This is def an album to enjoy on wax.

as far as Cranes goes, you may wanna try this link:

shipping is ridiculously fair and they have every MOV release, so you can possibly grab some other stuff you want. I actually got both Swervedriver and Cranes there for $47.12ppd and they arrived minty fresh.

I get it now. 
 

 

I corrected this, FYI, I had my albums confused.

Well, for starters, nothing I can write in this post will flip on a light switch that'll make you - personally - reassign your monetary value for this record or double LPs in general.  If it's worth it to you and you've decided you're going to spend the money, go for it.  My post was referring to the "well, X is charging this much for Y, so I guess that's the new going rate, oh well".  You're not the only person to fall back on that logic here at VC, and it's just dangerous for the cost of vinyl as a whole.
 
Yes, the general cost of items rise over time.  No, I do not expect to buy double LPs for $22-$25 for the rest of my life.  But there are absolutely exceptions.  I'm at work and unable to scour the list of what I've purchased this year, but how about smaller self-ran labels like Topshelf, or Deathwish Inc.?  I get that their products may not be personally "hand assembled" in runs of 300, but I also feel like there are plenty of labels out there that still offer double LPs for < $35 PPD.  That means if that was the average or acceptable price for a double LP, you wouldn't be able to afford 3 albums for $100.  And if that was slowly accepted as the norm (and raised for special occasions where records have "hand-sewn jackets" and "handwritten lyric sheets"), eventually you wouldn't be able to even afford shoes to gaze at while you listen to your records.

That Dirt Devil song rips. Really interested to hear the whole album.

It seems The Lonely Sea & The Sky from 93millionmilesfromthesun is getting a vinyl press.  A diy label, called String Light. Limited to 300.
 
I tried to find a pre-order link but it seems they are doing the newsletter link thing. Their site needs work though. Lets see how it goes.
 
I can't wait, this is one of my favorite releases this year.

I would gladly trade you the US Record Store Day experience for universal healthcare. 

it's up on ziarecords now. 9.99

I hate that for such an iconic band and such a great record what is supposed to be a 25th anniversary reissue got this kind of cheap treatment. I picked it up just because I am a big fan, and perhaps this inspires them to come back and do at least a reunion tour. Hopefully they do "static" justice. Because it has to be reissued soon enough.

Luckily I was. I was ready to keep at least one of those three in my discogs wants for ages and never buy it, but things worked out like a charm. 

PAUL2050 for 20% off $50 or more for CCMusic.

There are negatives to EVERYTHING. There will be always be people that criticize and and bring out those faults. Some are merited and some not so much.
That being said. I LOVE record store day. I love sitting in line, talking about vinyl, collecting and experiences. Yes they are gimmicky releases. So what?! There are so many releases, that I always find something I like. I realize people have had bad experiences, but that's in the minority. Go to the shops day of, and ask. People have fun. 
 

Highly recommend this EP, "Normally" by British band, Our Girl. 
 
 
 
Found the 12" on amazon.co.uk and it came out to about $16 shipped to the US and arrived in 3 days. Really good stuff.

This should be posted on instructibles as "How to RSD"

I disagree. Rarely, are these rumors wrong. This thread is meant for opinions, humor and yes, rumours. It keeps the discussion interesting and exciting.
