THE OFFICIAL EBAY CRAZINESS THREAD
kjkenney replied to vinyljunkie's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I have a bunch you can buy that are a record image printed on a cd that, due to legal reasons, had to change the name to 'Love Budz'...will that do? Btw, they are numbered. -
THE OFFICIAL EBAY CRAZINESS THREAD
kjkenney replied to vinyljunkie's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Oof, thats pretty fucked. To add to it more, the below release on Discogs, for an 'unofficial' copy, matches the matrix he mentions, SP.23 A1. As opposed to the 'sp23 A why don't you trade in those guitars for shovels...': https://www.discogs.com/release/871693?utm_source=mobile&utm_medium=app&utm_campaign=Android App -

PO Now: The Strokes - The New Abnormal
kjkenney replied to lethalenforcer's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Yeah definitely true. I will never understand the mentality I suppose 🤷♂️ some bands are lauded for progression in sound while others are immediately panned. -
PO Now: The Strokes - The New Abnormal
kjkenney replied to lethalenforcer's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Local finally came through with a copy for pickup! This album is fantastic. The reviews where the first two albums are referenced are stupid, imo. They havent put out anything like ITI or ROF since..well 2003. The last decade of Strokes is it's own class, for better or worse depending on the listener. I personally loved Angles, and put it on more than most along with FIOE. CM had its moments, but lapsed a little for me. This album sounds so fresh and progressive for them and makes me excited for what could come. If people want to listen to ITI in 2020, go for it, but don't expect a band to put out the same shit when they are in their 40s now. -

Help! Static sound from Tonearm
kjkenney replied to NicksRecs's topic in Turntables & Other Audio Equipment
Hi! The Rega tonearms are grounded through the shields of the RCA plug rather than having a dedicated ground wire to attach to the receiver, unfortunately. Has this been a constant issue with the turntable since day one or something that has happened as time has passed? You could try wiggling the cables to see if that reduces it. You could also try taking a piece of wire and wrapping it around the tonearm and touching it to a bare metal spot on the turntable, or the grounding spot on the preamp. Does this make it go away? -
Woohoo my day has come. Nothing monumental, but found a 2002 press of Cash IV for $3.29 at Goodwill today. Cleaned some smudges, has a very slight warp, but sounds great. My vinyl budget has been almost nonexistent lately, but that I could justify.

So to make the turntable Bluetooth enabled you would first need an RCA Bluetooth transmitter. I haven't ever bought one so I have no recommendations, but they are on Amazon and if you read the reviews you should be fine. I have read that pairing them can be goofy since there is no screen, but flashing lights indicate the pairing. Are the speakers you use currently RCA? If so you can find a decent RCA piggyback cord. They look like this: So the end with one prong goes into your Bluetooth transmitter, the piggyback portion you would plug into the output of the amp, and the RCA speaker cords into the back of those. Voila! Now the output will power both the Bluetooth and the speakers. Keep in mind that splitting the power here may result in loss of quality in sound. Again, never done it myself to speak for how it sounds, but the way signals work lends me to think it is a possibility. Good luck!

Is this the No Control reissue? I live near the Phoenix one, says they have one. Would be happy to stop by and check if that's the case. Holla!

'Appeals for Insertion' gives me all the feels. Stephen Pedersen was born to rock, truly. -

kjkenney replied to gazzo's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
On this, oh hell yeah. One of the first CDs I ever owned as a youth. They are up to almost 100k funded! Maybe they will use the overages and repress 'II' a boy can dream anyways. -
PO: Criteria- Years (1/17/20)
kjkenney replied to kjkenney's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
This is a great entry point, you will not be disappointed with their other stuff. En Garde is great, but When We Break is damn near perfect, imo. -
PO Now: The Strokes - The New Abnormal
kjkenney replied to lethalenforcer's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Listen to American Girl by Tom Petty and Last Night by The Strokes. Your mind will 'holy cow' in a beefier way. Also, two bands palm muting a section does not make them the same. K, thanks! -

kjkenney replied to kjkenney's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
So much! This album shreds hard, so glad they are still active. -
PO Now: The Strokes - The New Abnormal
kjkenney replied to lethalenforcer's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Hell. Yes. This excites me to no end. New song has an 'Ask Me Anything' vibe to it. Still very much The Strokes. Can't hardly wait! -

Damn, I didn't know the viewing party was a thing! That new warehouse is like 3 miles from my house 😕 Glad to hear about a show happening though! -
PO The Strokes - first three albums on colored vinyl
kjkenney replied to freverend's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I would absolutely agree. That is my go-to anymore. 'Angles' is pretty damn perfect! -
Just found out about this, even though it was apparently announced in December, and am beyond pumped. Both Criteria albums are two of my favorite of all time and Stephen Pedersen is a gd treasure. https://15passenger.bandcamp.com/album/years "Criteria just announced their first new album in nearly a decade and a half, aptly titled Years. The new album will be released on January 17, 2020 via 15 Passenger, a label owned and operated by singer, Stephen Pedersen's old bandmates in Cursive. Yesterday they premiered explosive anthemic lead single "Agitate Resuscitate" as well as a comical short film featuring a dual over the album's release between singer Stephen Pedersen and Tim Kasher of Cursive via Brooklyn Vegan. The song's syncopated post-hardcore groove and shout along lyrics set the perfect tone for the rest of the record melding their hallmark anthemic sound with new hints of prog, post-punk and just a touch of metal."
