cymbalism15 Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 I was wondering what all of you thought about 7"s, I tend to never buy them because they usually have a short playing time and it's kind of irritating to me. I definitely will never buy singles on vinyl but sometimes I'll break for splits and EPs. What do you all think? I know a lot of you on here use the cheaper cost to collect variants on 7"s but I'm all about whats in the grooves so it doesn't make much sense to me. I'm curious to hear from you all though. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blanchardoswald Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 I love the idea of exclusive vinyl bonus tracks being thrown onto a 7" and packaged with the record. I rarely ever listen to my 7"s though, but if they're fairly priced then they're alright as a sampler type of deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thoughts? I don't think about them---I just buy them. There are many 7"s with exclusive b-sides or tracks that are only available on that format. My biggest complaint is that the cost of a 7" is a bit out of control. You shouldn't have to pay more than $5 for a 7". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shitty Rambo Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Never crosses my mind. I play my 7"s as much as my LPs. The only time it sucks if when you're listening to the OFF! boxset. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

circuit bored records Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Schooled. Sorry man.But seriously, how many threads involve a post like "typical noob thread"? Just sayin. Just the threads that have been started hundreds of times on this board before, and they always happen to be by noobs... So yeah. I'm guessing mainly only those threads.

sjb2k1 Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 deja vu i buy eps, b-sides, splits, and even singles if i really like the song (even if i own the album). sometimes i'm lazy and just want to hear one song from a band. or is that like the opposite of lazy, since i have to get up and change the record a lot faster?

elgato48 Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Got one that was a bonus tracks of an album. Several others that had exclusive b side and a couple that were only available on 7. Still worth buying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 You never give up do you? On topic: buy 7"s and listen to them. Who cares if they are short time-wise...kinda sounds like a cop out imho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
