Guys, the Lost Highway boot sounds fantastic! Get your hands on it before these are gone....
yeah, but i wish my pressing wasn't fucked up. the surface noise on side B was almost unbearable. i actually went to their bandcamp and "sent them a message" to let them know/ask if they've been hearing from other people, or if it's unique to my copy. :|
just arrived this afternoon:
godspeed you black emperor - asunder sweet and other distress
aphex twin - macrhomt30a Edit 2b 96
Figures. I actually wondered how the pressing would sound. The album is really great and all, but some of the dynamics in the mixing are pretty wonky. I had a hunch it could end up sounding as awful as that last Cloud Nothings album, in terms of pressing quality. Hopefully you just got a bum copy though.
Not bad for 30 bucks:
Stray Cats - Built For Speed (u)
George Thorogood & The Destroyers - More George Thorogood & The Destroyers (u)
Blues Brothers - Made In America (u)
ZZ Top - Elimanitor (u)
Dire Straits - Brothers In Arms (u)
Cheap Trick - Live @ Budokan (u)
Tears For Fears - The Hurting (u)
Also got 3 discs from The Rockets (1980-1983), last week & something else...
forgot to take a picture of this when it came last week. pretty freakin' happy about this.
Got my preorders in and my list ready for RSD '15. Ill be lining up early as usual talking music with like minded people at Strictly Discs for the 4th year in a row. If you're ever in Madison, WI please check them out - Independently owned and operated for decades.

Temples - Mesmerize Live
V/A - The Darjeeling Limited Soundtrack
Oneohtrix Point Never - Commissions II

Might grab the Jackie Wilson or the eno if I spot them
Late post:
If These Trees Could Talk - Red Forest (Half Red and white with black spatter | limited to 150)
Really pumped on this one.
Just receive Tori amos-little earthquakes and under the pink. They both sound very good
Hey Now!
The score to Inception by Hans Zimmer. On clear vinyl. Under $20. They also got The Dark Knight OST. Two rare as fuck records.

Hey Now!
I started doing a little vinyl review thing on Instagram. Be pretty cool to have more followers and what not. Check me out.
my Instagram User Name is: SoundPurchase
ok, that's my one shameless plug for attention
I'm so pumped to get that Inception, that score is is fun to listen to. The Dark Knight has one of the coolest cover arts I've ever seen. Next week cannot come soon enough for me. They keep going up in price; I've noticed. When I got mine Inception was $17 and The Dark Knight was $24.
Hopefully the new pressing of Inception sounds better than the first. My OG copy I have is plagued with endless amounts of excruciating surface noise.
I picked up Menomena- friend or Foe. Such a cool cover.
RSD haul was small this year (many things I wanted weren't there, bloody queue. And let me bitch that The Zombies' RIP was America-only - why the FUCK is a British band's album exclusive the US?!)
IGGY POP - SHOT MYSELF UP (Live album on translucent green with bonus 7")
THE WEDDING PRESENT - TAKE FOUNTAIN (first time the album has been pressed to vinyl)
SIOUXSIE AND THE BANSHEES - JOIN HANDS (with original intended art and tracklisting)
THE ANIMALS - WE'RE GONNA HOWL TONIGHT (nothing special really, but it's nice to be in mono)
and if I'm lucky a friend might grab me the Stan Getz 10"
Nabbed Garbage, Florence & The Machine, and The Devil Wears Prada. My buddy was able to pick up the Every Time I Die release for me from their show in Cincy last night because it wasn't released in my area. Pretty stoked.
Edit: Just got Thrice's "Vheissu" and Anaal Nathrakh' "In the Constellation of the Black Widow" at good discounts.

I really wanted the Jon Hopkins 10". My man at the record shop hadn't received the delivery containing it so has taken payment ahead of it arriving this week. Badly want it tho! Also I'd not realised that the Temples US release is different to the UK one. I was the only person who'd included Temples on their wishlist and was about 8th in the queue but still missed out on the one copy my guy got in for me!

Record Store Day haul:
Johnny Cash Live in Prague red
Oneohtrix Point Never Commissions II
Grizzly Bear Horn of Plenty clear/ black splatter
Kiasmos Looped EP
Air Playground Love 7" nr 799
CHVRCHES Get Away/ Dead Air 7"
I also got The Thirteenth Step by APC on orange, obviously not part of RSD.
This was the first year I didn't stand in line super early since RSD became a thing. The list was just so underwhelming this year. I did manage to still show up and snag the one item I really wanted, and I'm really happy about that.
I still don't understand why this album wasn't released like this to begin with, instead of that hideous cover they mucked it up with last year.
