Record Store Day 2016

Record Store Day 2016 releases have been announced: http://www.recordstoreday.com/SpecialReleases

 

The only things I'm really interested in from that list are Bleachers and Regina Spektor, and neither of those are must-haves for me. Refreshing to just go for the sales instead of getting in line early for once.

 

interested in the mewithoutyou releases but not much else. hope I can get them

 

yeah this list is pretty underwhelming

 

Definitely going to try and snag La Dispute and J Dilla. Maybe the Circa/mWY split.

 

I'd like to have the Frank Turner, Brian Fallon, Stephan Jenkins and Andrew McMahon releases but definitely won't be heartbroken if I miss out. Maybe the Star Wars one too, because Star Wars.

 

Idk if I'll make it out this year, but if I do that Dr. Who narration will be mine. The Star Wars pic disc and Nosferatu soundtrack too.

 

Anyone picking anything up next week? Only things that I would want is the circa/wmY split and the Regina Spektor reissues.

 

The record store near me just posted this, isn't it beautiful?

 

I'll be going out specifically to pick up the Wolf Alice 7" if I can get it. Maybe the Star Wars thing too.

 

The few things I sort of care about are more "if I was already at a record store for something I REALLY wanted, I might pick these up", but nothing that makes me want to go out of my way to get them. RSD gets worse and worse every year.

 

I really need that Requiem for a Dream Soundtrack in my life.

 

can't wait to hear that Neil Young cover by Florence and the Machine

 

The appleseed cast "peregrine" will be available on the graveface website at 10am tomorrow if you don't want to wait in line for it!

 

It really does, dude. Super disheartening to see what it's ultimately become - Record Stores have to buy a crapton of stuff they won't be able to move for months, if ever, and most of these releases this year are no where near must-owns. It's gotten out of control for the last 5 years. I went last year, spent like 30 bucks. In 2009, I went, and I spent over 200. There were things out then that I cared about, and things worth having. It's gotten to be that this happens less and less.

20 years from now, will we have a CD store day? hahaha.

 

Definitely picking up Brian Fallon and Elvis. Might pick up Gerard Way, Regina Spektor, and The Guest soundtrack too.

 

Don't really see anything other than that Sublime EP.

 

Jesus people are already lined up for tomorrow at my local store.

 

I want Appleseed Cast and Run The Jewels. May just snag Peregrine from Graveface, there is something about the novelty of standing in line at my local shop though.

 

Oh shit, my local place only has 2 appleseeds. My conscience says wake up really early.

 

I'll be on a train all day tomorrow.. kinda bummed I won't be getting my hands on that La Dispute LP. Other than that there wasn't too much that stuck out to me this year.

 

Can't say I see anything dying to get my hands on. Might head over to Repo in Philly anyways. Haven't been there in a while and it is the 30th anniversary of the store and they are gonna have some local bands playing.

 

Hell yeah Disturbed covering Simon and Garfunkel

 

Going to Newbury Comics (on Newbury St. in Boston) at 4:00AM. Got there around the same time last year and was fourth in line. It's obviously not as high pressure of a situation (not going for Deja this time, obviously), but better safe than sorry.

 

welp looks like I won't be getting Brian Fallon or Circa/Mewithoutyou if I go there sometime after Noon as I planned
