Guest Admin Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 Introducing the $5.00 bargain priced LP, the AKAs are Everywhere is first! THE A.K.A.s (ARE EVERYWHERE) “White Doves and Smoking Guns” LP akas http://stores.channeladvisor.com/vinylhome/Items/loi-013-1 Who knows why it happens, but some records just don’t sell very well. It isn’t because the release isn’t great, but any numbers of other factors. We, through our distribution, have had a number of really great vinyl releases just never really move and instead of having boxes of vinyl collecting dust, I offer you the $5.00 bargain priced LP. The A.K.A.s debut album had all of the makings of a great selling record. The band features Mike Ski (of Brother’s Keeper), the band rocks (in an International Noise Conspiracy kind of way), and they had put out their album through the pseudo major label Fueled By Ramen. Reignition/Law of Inertia released this album on vinyl and I think their mistake was not pressing any colored vinyl. The release has a really cool die-cut jacket, but as you and I know, colored vinyl is something collectors seek out. Only 1,000 records have been pressed and it is not likely that this will go out of print any time soon, but I highly recommend everyone add this to your cart the next time you are shopping. It sounds great on wax and at $5.00, you can’t pass this up. Every week or 2, I will try to find a cool record to sell you at a bargain price. If you run a label, put out a great record, and are still sitting on tons of boxes, get in touch. We might be able to help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest conoley Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 Agreed, it's a great record Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirbypuckett Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 They've been selling the cd on tour for $5 for as long as I can remember, but I've never purchased it, nor downloaded it. Maybe this will persuade me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrbananagrabber Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 after you post a new bargain LP, will the ones from previous weeks go back to normal price? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottheisel Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 Definitely not a good record. Blech. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xlovecolouredx Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 i very like this idea because.... labels have a chance to sell their not so good selling records and it doesn't mean that album is not good, collectors have a chance for re-think or re-decision for fill their own collections and they might regret if that album will be rare item in someday (althrough it hard to be but it doesn't mean it never gonna happend) vinyl collective have a choice for new collector who wanna collect and looking for some small price items for start collecting. Ben,you should write this project on your next week column and update every time that Virgil post a new discount vinyl.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Admin Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 At this point, I plan to keep the $5.00 LP ongoing even if we select a new one. Some might go back to regular price, but most will stay at this low price. thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magalvsr13 Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 yeah, id love to see this brought back...and on a random note, saw these guys open for big d last night....meh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forgeagain Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 Would anyone actually buy the Temper Temper LP if it was $5? I'd gladly do that through VC to get rid of them. It's a great record, but they broke up immediately after the records came back from the plant. If they were still a band these would be long gone......only 300 on yellow marbled vinyl....nice double fold silk-screened covers. (opens up like a coat).
