Yes pls.

 

can't pull the trigger on either of them, even though i'd like both in my collecshhhh

 

Yeah, I really want that AAR record, especially with the 7”. But I’ve had too many “fuck it, you can’t take it with you” purchases this year and really need to be good for a while. Had to skip that Ben Quad pressing yesterday too

 

payday = vinyl.

this time, i ordered ‘night driver’ from busted. solid album from front to back. import.. will be here in a few weeks.

 

I can’t keep spending $40 on single LPs - something’s gotta give lol

 

I remember when a single LP might be $20 lol

 

Asian man, a-f records, and b9 still holding it down on the cheap vinyl front.

 

Oh yeah a lot of indie labels still fucking legit

and I get it’s expensive now to press - I am not mad at any indie labels or bands per se

 

Leave it to the corporate suits to fuck up vinyl.

 

I have no self-control paired with the fact that I’m building a collection from zero. Basically want and need everything. Haha.

 

Seriously! Look at us all basically buying CDs at the mall Sam Goody in the early 2000s again! We’re a bunch of fools.

 

I’m happy I was able to grab big chunks of my collection for $15-$25 a record at Hot Topic a decade ago haha.

 

Sam Goody was wild, they would charge $20 for a CD, but their selection was so much better than the big box stores.

 

I used to spend hours at the Sam Goody in Roosevelt Field on Long Island. It was a big store that had a huge selection of cds and a great vhs section with lots of rare and hard to find films. I spent a small fortune there as a teenager. Then Best Buy came to town and I’d walk in with $20-40 each new release Tuesday and walkout with (on average) 2 cds and 2 dvds. Insane.

 

When I was living at home and just had a part time job and no bills, I’d blow my entire paycheck on CDs and DVDs. I’d come home with a full stack that I could barely carry. Those were the days.

 

I don't need ocean ave, I don't need ocean ave....

 

If anyone else needs this, seems to be available for the moment:

In Keeping Secrets Of Silent Earth: 3 https://a.co/d/5D1sfnx

edit: it’s a preorder shipping in August.

 

Damn I would always be at that Sam Goody too! It had those listening stations too, I vividly remember it's where I discovered Rufio's Perhaps I Suppose and The Ataris' So Long Astoria.

 

I used to go to that mall back in the day. Does it still exist?

 

For me it was my first copy of AltPress, Eighteen Visions Obsession, and it's where I bought Coheed's Good Apollo the day it came out and asked them to open up the slipcover and throw that away for me because it had the parental advisory sticker and I didn't want my mom to see it.

 

woohoo snagged this. good looks!

 

I moved away about 13 years ago and since they’ve renovated it like crazy. The zepplin food court is gone. I hear it’s pretty unrecognizable from how we remembered it.

 

I discovered so much in those listening stations. If memory serves me right they were right off the escalator when you got in. God what a time.

 

man I'd bus from the Queens/LI border to that Best Buy just to save a few bucks compared to our local FYE.

 

Damn a steal tbh
