Barry posted:What's the reason? They don't have the time and resources to improve the forums and they don't want to put their name on anything that they don't have time to improve. (Nobody was asking for it to be improved, and as mentioned, it's a huge clusterfuck of the main contributors who spend a lot of money being VERY angry).

Barry posted:What's the reason? Basically what Thom said. There is no reason why they couldn't have announced their plan to do something different and let the community exist in the meantime with the understanding that staff will only respond if they want to do so on their own time. The discussion and recommendation threads are going to be sorely missed while they figure out the "new" thing and they definitely led to a bunch of sales for VMP. Its just baffling that they could think it was a good idea to give the community 48 hours notice before pulling the plug on a forum people have contributed to for years.

Maybe the CEO just needs to do a kickstarter and sell some t-shirts to keep the forums alive.

Got a u-turn special and I'm very happy with it. Sounds much nicer and plays better than my old Dennon. Anyone know if their local shop is getting or got copies of the single of the new David Berman project Purple Mountains? Gotta get my hands on that if I can't track it down here.

Some guy I know, sort of, is selling all his records, so I bought a bunch. Get ready!!! this band rules  i might already have this. maybe someone itt wants it if so. i'll have to double check    i normally don't get too excited over colored vinyl but this one is pretty cool imo   i first heard this when i was 14 or 15 and it was the heaviest and angriest thing i ever did hear. it's still one of my favorite albums      i had a t shirt of this when i was a kid. my dad liked it.    unlike most punk bands, poison girls was founded by an older lady who already had grown up kids, who are the band on the b-side           29 songs in 18 minutes      björk's in this, but they type it bjørk (fyi)   i def already have this. it was supposed to be a different color but it wasn't   this was a different color, though      so nice i bought it twice                He also gave me these You can read things Yoshimi said inside. I wonder if that's supposed to be Anla Courtis, not Alan. I will soon find out!!  Also this, which I am entirely sure what it is.  i thought it was a catalog of records/covers he designed, but maybe it's just an art exhibit, cos i can't find any of them online. some of them are pretty good

Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaan that's gorgeous. Also props to the boognish slipmat. My friends and I are counting down to our 6(66)th annual Weensday (we get together, eat all of the  and listen to Ween for about 32 hours straight) a week and a half from now. It's the best and also absolutely terrifying at times.

 Kinda funky, complex horn-driven goodness with Eric Drew Feldman on keys and a subdued Snakefinger on guitar. They did the score for the Twisted Tales of Felix the Cat cartoon. I appreciate them knowing the nerd audience and slapping a Ralph Records post-it note on it.  Sweet limited edition 7" - 161/300. I found Circuit Des Yeux while eating a currywurst at Pitckfork last summer waiting for This is not This Heat and was utterly hypnotized. It's like if Scott Walker was a spooky witch lady. Here's a cool shot I got of her performing at Pitchfork Midwinter last February:

My wife and I bought a media console to store our small collection of records and put our turntable on, but the only space in the apartment that will fit the console is close to a radiator. I'm a little wary of storing the records near a heat source, but my wife thinks it will be fine since the radiator is a closed loop system so no steam is released into the apartment. Reading about it online seems to be a mixed bag so I figured I'd ask for some goon advice. The console hasn't been delivered yet, but the records will be approximately four feet away from the radiator. Is that an ok distance or will it totally gently caress the records up?

Unless you live in a drafty place that really has to jack up the heat to keep up, it will be surely fine.

Might as well add a few more images to this monstrous page. Recent acquisitions Kero Kero Bonito - Time n’ Place Rail Yard Ghosts - Hiræth Shana Cleveland - Night of the Worm Moon U.S. Girls - Half Free  Those colourful Camberwell discs And from Bread Dragon, a noisy gooey blast  Better Days is great (sad that was the only one to not include a download, I like taking music with me,) and I love Herb Alert. M-m-m-megaprops to including high-res cover and album art in the downloads - I love it!  Bread Dragon also asked about an old Eau Claire band, Dios Mio. I saw them at a basement show at Sleazer’s Palace in 2011, and I had to dig through hard drives to find the photos from that night. Here is one such photo  And here’s like 40 more photos The show started at the house, then cops busted it up, so the bands (and I) migrated a few blocks south to the community radio station, WHYS, just in time for the old Friday night noise show Increase The Pressure, where hosts Christ Almightihoffer and Nate Dungeon posed for photos and graciously hosted Dios Mio and supporting band Cavity. Ah, memories
