Found some more to get rid of

This is advice I wish I would have heard early on. 

That whole trend of variant collecting and stuff never made sense. Now I do have different versions of the same album for example an original Downward Spiral, the Kevin Gray cut, the definitive reissue by Trent but they are all different sonically and one of my favorite albums. I have similiar trends with Siamese Dream, In Utereo, etc but never just the same album/press in different colors. Total waste in my mind

That will never change, they need to allow people to add multiple items and get shipping adjusted accordingly.

 

The shipping policies should automatically update for multiple items within the same order. . Now if people place multiple orders thats a problem

Just went in and signed up.  Assuming it runs smoothly this is a very welcome change.

I signed up yesterday. Two orders today. Worked fine. Paypal took discogs and tax out and its not showing up in my billing

Don't become a collector . Having 10 different albums is better than having 10 different versions of one album.

Don't feel the need to buy every release by an artist just to have if you don't really like the release.

I'll bite.

• What cool features (related to vinyl) would be interesting?
  I think most of us want to track our collections and have it be accurate. I can't really think of any cool features specific to vinyl. I think myrecordlist.com has links associated with each release, links to spotify, discogs, etc. So it's like this mini hub for each release. I think it might be interesting to have a community that's built similar to reddit. Discogs will never be a place I go to talk about punk records, hell, I barely do that here. I created a discord server for that. But having user created and maintained subs might have an appeal that works better than some other areas. Also a lot to moderate and maintain.
• What don't you like with Discogs?
  It just ain't nice to look at and in some ways, not easy to navigate. If I have a specific variant of an album that has 35 other variants, I will usually have to click on 4 or 5 before I find the one that's mine. Take Reinventing Axl Rose for instance. I buy a used album and then come to discogs to add it to my collection, I look at the list and see 90+ variants, how in gods name do I find it? Also, displaying my collection is ugly as hell. I'd give anything to go back to something simple like @deadformat and myrecordlist.com is even great too. I know some people don't care about the visuals, but I absolutely do.
• Would you like to be able to buy directly to the Artists (like Bandcamp but on a more interactive version)?
  I think this is how limitedrun started maybe, it's been forever. Would definitely be okay with that option. I think having some sort of notification built in would make it work even better. One could follow artists or labels and then get alerts when POs go up. Hell, I'd almost be into a pull list style setup like they do with comics.
• Would you like to be able to buy from other users?
  This would have to be an option. I imagine taking a cut would help your overhead. I do dislike that discogs charges the same amount as eBay. You'd be a hit if you can find a way to be profitable and undercut either of those options.
• Apart from the price of a vinyl, why do you like Discogs?
  I'm a nerd when it comes collecting. So I appreciate the detail that can be had with that site. Some people are fine with knowing they have a copy of a blink 182 album, but other people wanna know all the details. Discogs is that.

 

 

All that being said. Finding that balance of simple, but detailed is what I'd be into. Mobile and web options would be ideal. Having integrations with some of the socials would be nice. Either way, good luck! I think there is room out there for competition, but there are also plenty of options that have been around forever.

Do people really not like discogs? To me its super easy to use and the wealth of information on pressings, variants, etc can not be beat. While sometimes it is hard to find the exact one those are complete one offs for me

Part 2 songs are now up

Put up a bunch more. This is most likely it for a while

Well. Considered how fucked things are all across all pressing plants...highly doubtful that the December target timeframe will happen. 

 

If they submitted it in June like they said, it is very realistic

Knowing Ipecac though it probably was never done

Anyone hear anything. I know they said December and that month is quickly here

Late January in Portland, 1996. The Dandy Warhols are hammering out the most deranged psych pop of their career in hopes of blowing the lids off their newfound suitors from Capitol Records, completely unaware that one of Oregon's biggest natural disasters was raging outside their studio walls. The notorious Willamette Valley flood of '96 chalked up over $500 million in property damage in the Pacific Northwest, but fell short of The Dandys' studio space by 2 blocks. Courtney, Peter, Zia and Eric escaped the carnage without a scratch, the perfect metaphor for the band's 3-decade-spanning journey. They survived the major label buzz, an international hit single, "the documentary", the rise and fall of brit pop, and a post-Napster music industry. What's a little water gonna do?

Riding off the debut hype of 1995's Dandys Rule Ok, this new batch of songs saw a band spinning into an unknown. Bigger budgets meant bigger expectations, and The Dandy Warhols didn't want to lose their lipsticked sneer by bowing down to the powers that be. Knobs were turned into the red and chemical hors d'oeuvres were served around the clock with the intent of pushing themselves to uncharted waters. They even got a trumpet to feed back. Picture the band sending Capitol a song called Crack Cocaine Rager and just try not to smile.

But we all know the story. After a brief tour with Love and Rockets to clear their heads, the label and the band both decided to hit the reset button. The demos for Boys Better and Minnesoter among other fragments and oddities ended up on the now-legendary ...The Dandy Warhols Come Down and those fabled demos collected dust until 2004 when they were released as The Black Album. The sound of these scuzzy fuzzed-out recordings began to echo through a new generation of garage rock bands who preferred a little noise in the cracks of their harmonies, and the legacy of The Black Album grew. Now, for the first time ever, the songs are getting released on vinyl. It's about damn time.

Fellow Portlandians Little Cloud Records are putting out a mere 500 copies of the album on wax, 250 slabs on black vinyl and 250 on a clear and black splatter colorway. Either one will look perfect in the psych section of your record shelf. U.S. collectors can grab one from Little Cloud after the 'buy' link and U.K. folks can get it HERE from The Dandys online store.

Pretty positive that this album has been available on record store shelves without issue for the last decade

Put up a bunch more items in last 2 days. This should be it for the year
