regan138 Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 Has anyone ever purchased a record based on the color and not the band? I have never questioned doing this until I saw Pirate Press Records Record Of The Week (ROTW) website. Some of those color combinations are so amazing looking. Some of the bands I have never even heard of but I was tempted to buy some based on how they look. I think I have a record collecting problem.

shenanigans Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 Never just for color, but I have a few things that I've bought because of the way they play or something. Like inside to outside on one side and concentric grooves on the other side or something like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bought a Dillinger Escape Plan 7" mostly because it plays pretty weird. And I got into the band "Fishboy" because he has some really cool comics that come with his stuff. I do check out the Pirates Press ROTW though because it totally just reminded me I need to listen to that sports. LP shenanigans 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek™ Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 I have checked out albums in the past based off particularly appealing variants and-or album art, and proceeded to order after being impressed with what I had heard... but I've also dodged some bullets with that method, too. I don't think I've ever blind-bought something just off a variant photo or mockup, though. EHughes527 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
