  1. Which brings back to exactly what I said... delete people's lists that contain only cd's. I agree downloading music has brought me to spend thousands on music-related stuff (before I started downloading I owned 10 cd's) but it's not a good thing to let people trade CD-R's for the same reason it would suck to have lots of sendspace topics with people sharing music.

    CDs are fun because they are convenient, but they are totally worthless from a collector's point of view. Sure some of them are VERY rare but still. I have 200-300 cd's and I tell myself, why the hell did I spend so much on this crap when I could've gotten it on wax and upload the mp3's on my mp3 player. I could always have burnt a copy for the car without even remotely feeling guilty because I own the record.

    Bleh. The worst thing with cds is when you wanna get rid of them you won't even get 1/4 of what you paid.

  2. It's not an LP cover, but the US cd cover for Coral Fang from The Distillers is AWESOME. Everyone knows what the regular copy of the CD/LP looks like, the chick on the cross...

    for the US release since the cover was banned they used a bright yellow thing with animals and cute stuff.. Such irony, sarcasm and all... I love it.

  3. I like Fat-type punk rock, fast and melodic a lot... It's mostly what I collect on vinyl, as well as all the decent quebecker bands I like (Sainte Catherines, Yesterday's Ring, Fifth Hour Hero, Malajube, Planet Smashers, etc.)

    I love folk rock when it's not american.. Early Beatles, some alt.rock. Ska but it mostly has to be fast skapunk and not reggae.

    Mostly I go by bands and by feeling more than by genre. I like Infected Mushroom but I dislike most Trance/Psych. I like Children of Bodom/Nightwish but I dislike most metal. I like Issue Sixteen but any other kind of very emoish music gets on my nerves.

    What I cannot listen to is people screaming/growling or unstructured music / chaotic stuff without melodies or with very hidden melodies. Best exemple that comes to mind of what would make me wanna kill myself or other people if I listened to it all the time is The Blood Brothers live. I kept away from their studio stuff after that horrible experience so I can't judge it, but I saw them live once and U-G-H.

    Share? I respect everyone's music tastes and I expect people to respect mine ;)

  4. i know i'll be putting up the 2 smoke or fire lps soon. and a me first country. and probably the entire ramones tribute lps, but i've sold off some pressings over the years, so i just have mostly 1 of each now left.

    Dude do you have a clear blue This Sinking Ship or marbled blue?

    I'd be totally interested in a trade for a clear blue one

  5. I prefer sandwiching the LP's between 2 thick cardboard pieces larger than the record itself, taping everything but no tape on the records, just taping both cardboard pieces together with the record inside

    and put all of that in a large bubble mailer, fits just right. Might not be easy to recycle but at least the LP(s) is(are) definitely safe like that.

  7. conoley, nope sadly. I think I can find a copy of Back From El Rancho EP on black wax w/ a silkscreened b-side, dunno which variation tho, there's green serigraphy, gold and silver. I think I saw one for CAD$9.99 near work the other day, it might have been sold though.

    On another note I have an extra copy of The Sainte Catherines - The Machine Gets Under Way on clear brown wax limited to 549 if I remember correctly.
