sherlock Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 just curious which bands you guys actively try to collect all pressings/variations from. i'm new to all this so i haven't decided on any yet. i'm considering this is hell and a couple others though.

dante3000 Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 I realized I collect more bands than I thought: Akimbo (I think I have everything but the tests, as there were no variants) New Mexican Disaster Squad (I think I have everything but the first 7" test) Fake Problems (I don't have any tests but I have everything but the clear Euro LP) Teenage Bottlerocket (The only offical release I'm missing is "Another Way" on Pink, though I don't have any of the tests or the odd variants). Gaslight Anthem (I currently have all the standard releases but no test presses) Western Addiction (all but the test presses...Like all 4 records) I'm also working on a Bronx collection but that's harder as people actually collect The Bronx stuff.

mrc Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 i guess these are the ones i have been working on lately. i have some other small bands i would like to finish up, but since they dont have that many records i will keep those off the list. i also go through phases of collecting a certain band... LTJ can get old since there are so many pressings and when some bands records start increasing in price i will swap to a band that is less in demand at the moment. 1. screeching weasel 2. as friends rust 3. steinways 4. propagandhi 5. less than jake 6. guttermouth 7. nofx 8. jawbreaker i guess the young livers - i have all the colors and the test of their only LP starting a good riddance, and pink lincolns collection oh and i guess i have a lawrence arm collection... well you can call it a collection after all the old LPs get pressed this year.

Guest scriptedrain Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 Moved to the Vinyl board. thanks, wasn't really sure. No prob, welcome aboard! To answer your question, there's really one band that I actively try to get all the pressings and variations from: Death Cab for Cutie. Jess and I do collect other bands like The White Stripes and The Blood Brothers (among a few others) but not very actively or to an excessive point.

manicdogbert Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 bands (that haven't broken up) that I'm actively collecting (not buying all variations but trying to get at least one of everything on CD and vinyl) Manic Street Preachers (been collecting them for 15+ years now) (+44) Ash Bloc Party Bullet for My Valentine Explosions in the Sky Fightstar Funeral for a Friend The Futureheads Hundred Reasons Idlewild Jimmy Eat World Mogwai Mono Sigur Ros Stereolab Weezer The Wildhearts there are a bunch of other bands who i have somewhat complete collections for but they have broken up or i lost interest in their new stuff Blink 182 A The Cooper Temple Clause Blur The D4 Mansun Ride Slowdive Snuff Spiritualized Therapy?

mynameisdan Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 aus-rotten (almost done) noise conspiracy clash (slowly) operation ivy (almost done) also, this is only so far as one copy of everything. im not ambitious enough to work out color variations, although i will keep them if they come to me cheap.

jacobe Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 Lucero's the only band that I still will go after everything off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brady Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 As soon as I have the three pieces that are in the mail, I will have a complete Hold Steady collection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swank Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 There are plenty of bands that I try to have 1 of everything of, but the only band I've gone the variation(s) route with is Lifetime. Although now that their Vinyl is going to be handled by No Idea, I'm starting to re-think it, as I don't have the time or money to track down every marbled sort-of-grey version they decide to put out.

patron Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 I don't go for any variants of bands, but as far as one of each go: Against Me! (done) The Ergs! (done) Off With Their Heads (lacking) The Strokes (I think I'm missing one or two 7"s) Tranzmitors (done) The Hives (still missing some) I think those are all the notable ones.
