bouncingsoles123 Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 I need to check out Academy, I was at Passout but if was for a show and it was too crowded to search for vinyl unfortunately So I have to go back, next time I plan on going to Bklyn or NYC I should check em.

suicidemachine Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Just got back from Generation Records for the first time. Holy Shit that place is awesome. I had to have my girlfriend make sure I didn't spend too much money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gravitylovesdrunks Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 what kind of recs at generation? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paintbrushes Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 i bought a bunch of great mid 90s emo records for 40% off from generation records when i was in the states at the start of last year. it was some good times. the staff were pretty unhelpful though, but what else do you expect from a record store?

bizarospeak Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Bleeker Bobs has good classic rock, old punk, new wave-ish stuff. Def Generation as some have said. Decent used section w/ rock, small punk/metal but HUGE new seclection of metal/indie/punk sorta stuff. Rocket Sicence on Saint Marks Place has an awesome Selection!
