controlthebleeding Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 A lot of people have mentioned recent releases...most of which, although good, aren't worth shit...has anyone found any good punk records from 70's and 80's?? I recently found the Human Therapy 7" from 1983...not a big find though. couple of years ago i found a HICKOIDS lp for $2. I rarely find good old stuff here. most of it gets taken by the employees at most of the stores. i get the leftovers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thieves Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 There are really 100 songs on that 7"? How short are the songs, and what do they sound like? very and shit. nah, it's actually a really awesome release. they're all locked grooves so none of them are 'songs,' but rather bits of audio that work well as a loop.they did a bunch of subsequent locked groove lps, but this 7" started it all.

Yeah, a lot of record store employees are knowledge about 70s and 80s punk, so they wouldn't dare sell something like the Tapeworm 7" or Ice and the Iced 7" for less that $10 (for those who don't know, those two records go on ebay for $1,000 +) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtw88 Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 They must have pressed like 30,000 copies of that MK-Ultra/Seein' Red split. I see that everywhere! Yeah. My local store, which doesn't have a huge selection, has at least 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

konk Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 Only one for me was The Break S/T for $2 maybe at Waterloo back in '05 I think. It was a good find for me at the time as I loved their song on a Doghouse sampler that came with AAR. Plus it was red, which may have been the only color it was pressed on. I stopped looking for some reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thedavidescapeplan Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 I did indeed! I got a couple other things at Dave's, but I was pretty stoked on those. Reckless had a used copy of "Today's Empires, Tomorrow's Ashes" on red but it was $80 and I was not dropping that much money on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j4m35 Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 rad! i had been looking for that communique lp on red for a while. i've found a lot of good stuff at reckless, most notably a couple copies of the 'we all know you can do it' 7" for 7 or 8 bucks. reckless also has great prices on screamo/skramz stuff too...
