  1. I got mine two days ago. It was inside an envelope wrapped with a piece of bubble wrap. Therefore, the sleeve was dented and bent to hell. The vinyl surprisingly was not ruined, but the cover looks like it went thru WW3.
  2. Stoked! I grew up listening to them, and bought the PHM reissue a few years back. Although I think it's amazing, I'm excited to hear this version. This is my favorite NIN record.
  3. I bought mine at a record store. It plays perfectly, and has no warping at all. This is way better than the last album. The little 45 adaptor doesn't fit snugly, so I'm just using the one I already had.
  4. I would love to see the Vaux/Eiffel stuff out on vinyl. Maybe one of these days...
  5. Go to a speaker store and listen. Sometimes what sounds good to you might not sound good to others.
  6. Elusive Disc is the best place I've ever ordered records from. Records come packed in bubble wrap in oversized containers. I recently order 5 records, and they came packed inside a larger box that was filled with styrofoam peanuts. I've never had a bent corner or warped record come from them. They win the best place to order records from. I can't think of a worst.
  7. Ok I bought that thing, read the directions and attempted to use it, only to find out my turntable doesn't have an adjustable counterweight or any kind of anti-skating controls I guess I'm out of luck, Against the Grain is still skipping That totally sucks!!! If your turntable doesn't have a counterweight, it's probably a cheaper turntable, hence the skipping. I have 3000+ records, and not one of them skips. Having a nicer tonearm and stylus with the right tracking force makes a world of difference. Stop buying new records for a few months, and put that money into a quality turntable.
  8. This one gets the job done, but it's not as easy as a digial scale. I had one of these, and compared it to my digitial scale, and it was pretty much spot on. $36 http://www.needledoctor.com/Shure-SFG-2-Stylus-Force-Gauge?sc=2&category=423 Or, you can buy a digital one. Way more accurate, but $139 http://www.needledoctor.com/Pro-Ject-Measure-It?sc=2&category=423
  9. Both my parents had about 50 records a piece. I wish I had a collection to raid...
  10. amen. I have bought all of the epitaph represses and none of them skip. The only time I had a skipping problem was when I received a USB turntable for Christmas (piece of junk - have since stopped using it). The directions had you dial in the tracking force, but my records were still skipping. I bought a stylus force gauge and it said my stylus had a downforce of 10grams, when it should have been 2. The only way I could get 2 was to unscrew the counterweight all the way to the pointof it falling off. I have since tossed it, and just use my main turntable. Conclusion - if you have a turntable that costs less than a few hundred dollars, you should go spend $20 on a stylus force gauge.
  11. It does look sweet,but I still kind of wanted one like this Agreed. Mine looks more rust/red than the picture from the site.
  12. Some people are assholes... The first NOFX "Punk in Drublic" is already on eBay. Buy it now for only $69.99! http://cgi.ebay.com/NOFX-Punk-in-Drublic-LP-BROWN-VINYL-afi-bad-religion_W0QQitemZ190362952276QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMusic_on_Vinyl?hash=item2c52842254#ht_500wt_1182
  13. Go to U-Haul and they have a small box that perfectly fits records. It's literally a perfect fit, and if you're the only one moving them, you can make sure to treat the box nicely. It's about a $1 a box, and they sell them individually. each box holds close to 50 records I believe. I've used these boxes during every move I've ever had in the last 13 years, and never had an issue.
  14. Gorilla biscuits s/t 7" #'d out of 102 last rights 7" both for $2
