Mike Ski?

I've said it for years; the fact you own this still makes me insanely jealous. As for the topic at hand... Beastie Boys - Paul's Boutique (2x12 180gram) - it's the 20th anniversary edition, but seeing as how it's my favorite album of all time I'm damn glad to own it. Black Sabbath - Volume 4 - my favorite record by my favorite band. and it's an original copy in pretty good condition. Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon - an original copy in insanely good condition. Blacklisted - Heavier Than Heaven, Lonelier Than God (Sound and Fury pressing.) and a 1st pressing of Isis "Celestial." It was my #2 holy grail record (behind an OG copy of Jane Doe...which is still on my want list) for a long time. Was insanely stoked when I scored it off eBay one day for under $30

Doomriders/Disfear - split 7" Deafheaven - Roads to Judah (cream/black) Red Fang - Murder The Mountains (pastel green) Not bad at all

I ordered it... :EDIT: Everything seems to have straightened out. Awesome. Glad to have a complete set of this.

fucking really? http://cgi.ebay.com/RYAN-ADAMS-Class-Myt....item564 3aa7a61

everything about this is WIN

Wow man, that really sucks. Why'd you have to cancel? Long story involving shortage of funds and my wife

So bummed I had to cancel my pre-order for this.

I like the look of the vinyl. That said; while I don't buy the ICP comparisons or anything like that, I can't really decide if I like this album or not. I've listened to it a handful of times and I can't decide if it's really good...really bad...or somewhere in between.

I only got the Trap Them 12" in the mail on Friday but did pick up a couple things while I was out and about yesterday, including the new Sharks 12"

I plan on picking this up at that Morgantown show. I'll spend way too much money depending on the merch available. I may paypal you some money and have you pick me some stuff up since I'm getting screwed out of going. Dude do you live in Morgantown?? Will be seeing this tour in Baltimore on 5.20!! Will also be picking this up along with the Converge/Dropdead split at the show! Live about 3 hours south of Morgantown down in Charleston.

Were not a review site. We pay for 99.5% of the records we post. If labels want to send us records, we'll review them. As far as pressing #s go, I usually forget to post them and have to go back and post them later. I only care about them cause the readers care. Thanks, Nick...that's sums it up a little better than I had. As far as pressing numbers go; I personally put them in my write ups because, like Nick said, the readers care to some extent. Seeing as how we're generally writing up/looking at the whole package (and not just the music contained on the records) pressing numbers are a part of that 'package' for better or worse. Also, want to mention that the inspiration for me originally launching the blog (when it was just me, before nick and juan came onboard) comes from here; http://doug-wewillburyyou.blogspot.com/

shouldn't reviews of records talk about the music instead of telling me about pressing numbers? Or is this all the TSPV site does? I leave the music reviews to Juan's work for the 1st Five and occasionally Juan or myself will post a music review on on the TSPV tumblr.

Nirvana http://theystillpressvinyl.wordpress.com/2011/05/12/nirvanarsd2011/ Ryan Adams http://theystillpressvinyl.wordpress.com/2011/04/16/radamsrsd2011/ Foo Fighters (write up coming later today to TSPV)

First time they've ever played in this state as far as I know...total bummer I've gotta miss it.

Fuck work! It's CONVERGE!!! Wish I could

Was supposed to see these guys on 5/27 w/ Converge and Burning Love. Not going to be able to go now because my schedule got screwed at work. Damnit

I have exactly one record hanging on the wall in my house; an O.G. copy of Dark Side of The Moon (in ridiculously good condition) that I framed up and gave to my wife for a gift on our 1st wedding anniversary (she's a huge Floyd fan)

ordered as soon as I saw it on Facebook a little bit ago...stoked. http://theystillpressvinyl.wordpress.com/2011/05/06/trap-them-seance-prime-the-complete-recordings-now-available/

Damn, wish I'd have seen that before I ordered the 7" from No Idea 3 days ago.

When it comes to HHR, Juan knows ALL. DO NOT DOUBT HIM! Or perhaps you've forgotten about the time he was able to get info for a TSPV piece about Vacation Vinyl exclusives from The Man himself http://theystillpressvinyl.wordpress.com/2010/12/09/hydra-head-records-%E2%80%93-vacation-vinyl-exclusives/

HHR/BCD don't release pressing numbers (generally speaking) in an effort to keep secondary market/eBay prices down. or at least that's how I understand it. Of course that just means that everything ends up being BIN'd for ridiculous prices because everyone just assumes THEIR color is the RAREST color (I know, Juan, 'don't like it don't buy it')

taken straight from EVERY hydra head vinyl release page that has multiple color options; so you're fine

White is too
