theradiostillsucks posted:Unless their shipping has improved since the first press, you've got a seam split or two to look forward to. Did they actually use the painting for the cover art this time around? Mine has the dude in the center of a black background and looks like some sort of Death in June bootleg. I've seen on image, and I think it's an old one of the original copies, but it has the Death of Marat as the cover. And from my understanding, their shipping process has either improved or your case was an exception. Sorry to hear that, and I am really hopeful it doesn't happen to me.

Anyone know if the Disc 2 of the In Rainbows Special Edikon was ever put on Vinyl? I'd love to have songs like MK2, Last Flowers, Down is the New Up and Bangers and Mash on Vinyl. Some of my favorite Radiohead songs.

Nevermind, again! Those songs were only on the CD version of the singles WASDF fucked around with this message at 01:30 on Dec 24, 2011 |

Could you take some pictures? I haven't seen any shots of anything from that box set yet and I'm very excited to see it. I got myself a turn table yesterday. Thought I should start doing this whole "vinyls" thing. It's a Thorens TD 165 from 1979. The speakers are nothing fancy, I just picked them up cause I needed some speakers. For my first purchases, I got: Battles - Gloss Drop Radiohead - In Rainbows Animal Collective - Merriweather Post Pavilion and I was visiting my friends in Arizona where I used to live and found some of my mom's old records too. Soundgarden - Screaming Life EP (first pressing!) Soundgarden - Loud Love EP Soundgarden - Flower EP My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult - Some Have to Dance Some Have to Kill EP The Cure - Fascination Street WASDF fucked around with this message at 21:44 on Dec 24, 2011 |

Ah, I thought it would've came in some fancy box. How long do you think it will be on sale for? I really want to get one, but I don't have any money, nor will I for quite some time

Got this The Flaming Lips/Lightning Bolt 12" because that combo sounded amazing. I kind of expected lovely music, so I'm not too disappointed, but still only two songs on this are "decent". The entirety of the Lightning Bolt side is bad and harsh remixes of the already kind of harsh Flaming Lips songs on side A. I actually like "I'm Working at NASA and I'm on Acid" quite a bit, but "I Want to Get High, But I Don't Want Brain Damage" is neat, but not very good. Side B just remixes the two songs on Side A and like I said, aren't very good.

Got me some records. The Smashing Pumpkins - Gish Remastered The Radioheads - The Bends Battles - Mirrored Mogwai - Special Moves I've never really listened to The Smashing Pumpkins, but knowing how big of a fan my mom is of Billy Corgan, I thought I'd give Gish a try. I need to give it some more listens to really get a solid feel of what I think. The Bends and Special Moves are personal favorite albums while Mirrored was purchased because of how much I loved Gloss Drop. Mirrored is a bit weirder and not as fun, I think. It's a whole lot experimental, but I think over all, it's not as good as Gloss Drop.

Dissapointed Owl posted:These two came in today: I'm kind of interested in both, but more torn on the Halo Soundtrack. I know the music was great, but I've never thought that it was something incredible. Maybe the fact that I thought moments in Halo CE were awesome is a testament to the soundtracks power cause I don't really remember too many songs from it.

Heads up for those Plains of the Purple Buffalo fans. The record is on sale on *Shels' site once again, but it's $50. As much as I love that album, I'd suggest not buying it until the re-press they said they will do sometime during or soon after February. Plus, this is just profiteering bullshit.

Can anyone help me pick out a tuner/receiver? I don't really know what to look for. My current tuner has only one working speaker bank so I can't get any bass out of it I'm looking for one that works and is reasonably priced. Would getting a used one be advised?

I'm quite green so your vernacular is falling on deaf ears. By two-channel, do you mean just left and right channel speakers? No center for bass or anything? I have Thorens TD 165 and some random TEAC speakers that don't really suffice when it comes to sound quality.

CPL593H posted:Yeah, two channel means two speakers. And your stereo is only ever as good as your speakers so you might want to look into that as well if you think what you have isn't very good. Good speakers don't have to be expensive. Buying them used can be a little tricky, however. Hmm... So you think it could just be my speakers? The left and right channels work fine; it's just the quality that concerns me. I do get a little bit of a feint hiss when I turn my volume up all the way too.

Wish I knew how much money some of these things coming out on Record Store Day were. I'd like to get some stuff, but I'm not sure how I can budget them with my $200 RSD/Concert money for that month. Looking to pick up: The Flaming Lips - The Flaming Lips and Heady Fwends Death Grips - The Money Store Animal Collective - Transverse Temporal Gyrus (maybe) and maybe Grimes - Visions if it's just hangin' around.

Sweet. Still curious about that Death Grips album. Are other albums reduced in price on RSD?

I would absolutely do the same.

thebigpicture posted:So... Best Buy has Jimi Hendrix - Valleys of Neptune on 180g for $1.99. Not sure if this is a mistake, seems like lots of prices have changed on the site recently. It's also backordered, but, hey, it's $2 and you can always cancel. Ordered the Jimi Hendrix album. Never heard it, but it might be cool for $2.

I've got a feeling that Nine Inch Nails is gonna start talking about that remastered version of The Fragile soon. Their facebook page just updated their wall photo thingy with The Fragile and we haven't heard about this thing in like a year and a half.

Is it at all dangerous to leave my record player going for hours? Like if I fell asleep to an album? I always wanted to do that, but I worry about the record just getting hosed up or something cause my player doesn't auto-return.

This arrived yesterday and it was so worth it. *Shels - Plain of the Purple Buffalo it has some beautiful packaging. it also came on purple transparent vinyl, but it didn't show up well on my phone's camera so I didn't bother with taking a picture.

I just picked up the reissue of Boris - Absolutego+. Quite stoked. I got lucky I guess and snagged one of the 1000 red vinyl reissues. [editline]9th April 2012[/editline] it is a bit weird to listen to drone on vinyl, and especially this cause it's supposed to be one song. Also, it looks so weird having no separator grooves
