Just picked up an original Reload by Metallica for $11

I wonder if someone messed up the price on this one. It's pretty much near mint, didn't clean before playing and theres no surface noise. Sounds amazing... They probably were referencing to the recent press and since it's used the price was cut in half.

I do this too but damn cuh you calculate the prices too? My girl would have my balls on a platter if I put the prices on mine too, shit would make me bow out the hobby probably out of guilt..

This. Also my wife would probably murder me if I told her I spend $125 on Iced Earth reissues this week...but...yeah. Whatevs.

Q Lazzarus - Goodbye Horses 12". I can die a happy man (while listening to Goodbye Horses).

 

 

The million dollar question...

Would you tuck it, dance around and whisper "I'd fuck me" on first listen? That's what I would do.

 

Crosses does an amazing cover of this. Chino even tucked the mic between his legs when I saw them do it live. Fucking epic!

Man. Today was the perfect storm. All 8 records I ordered from that crazy No Sleep sale showed up at the same time all 6 records I ordered from that crazy Daytrotter sale. Plus a copy of the new Dawes record from Amazon. And my wife pulls into the driveway from work as I'm picking all of this up off of the front porch shirtless in my gym shorts after taking the day off today. I got that wordless "we're going to talk about this later" head shake.

I went to Pitchfork this past weekend and picked up the following when it wasn't 90 degrees out nor raining like a monsoon:

 

Sheer Mag - II

Serengeti  - Museum Day (flexi)

 

I was talking to the guy running the Joyful Noise booth and he said Serengeti and Anders Holm are in the studio creating another Kenny Dennis album.

New to the forum and new to test presses. Just got Ten Foot Pole's Insider and Unleashed test presses and I'm seeking any additional info I can get on them. Got a little from the seller, but the interweb is pretty silent about the subject. Please hit me back with anything you've got on the forum or [email protected]. Thanks in advance!

Didn't even know this existed. When Life For Rent and No Angel were reissued by Classic Records in 2003, they had plans for both of them to release them as a part of their Clarity series, where they press them as single sided 4LPs on clear, 200 gram vinyl, all with etched b-sides. That never happened, but the test pressings for them still exist and sound incredible. Still need to find the No Angel boxset, but it's insane to be able to own this. Somebody on eBay has sold a few, must have worked for Classic Records or something.

I have no info for you, but nice score! Ten Foot Pole were terribly underrated, such a great band.

 Where did you find that??? I love those first two Dido albums, hope to get them one day on vinyl. They need to repress those.
