Yesterday I got I See a Darkness by Bonnie 'Prince' Billy. I'd never listened to it before. Don't own it in any other formats. And I spun that twice yesterday and once today. What a gorgeous album.

It's nice to have a first time vinyl experience.

It also just helps that this album is the tits.

Has there ever been a double album that the discs looked like tits? The center label stickers could be nips.

Seems like something Poison or someone would do if they reissued an album.

New England people: 25% off all records at Newbury Comics this weekend (through Sunday).

I grabbed the new Fuzz record today and the purple repress of Broke Social Scene's "You Forgot It In People" (limited to 490 copies).

I don't think it existed when I lived there. My place used to be Shangri-La Records

This is coming on Friday, motherfuckers...see you next week!

Yeah, Goner is one of the best record stores on Earth.

picked up the new limited run Sigur Ros ( )

#1375/4000

Definitely a top 10 favorite album.

You guys see the Mark Lanegan boxset coming out via Sub Pop this year? Pretty sweet.

I want it. Don't have the money right now. And I'm kind of sick of "the boxes". Like Neil Young Archives Box, the LPs are essential, the box is fucking dumb, no number or anything on it. I'll wait for individual releases.

If you're talking about the Original Release Series, I think it was made pretty clear that some of the ones in the last box (at least TFA) weren't going to get an individual release. The box can be had for around $100 now and I'd totally recommend it.

But, yeah, I totally get what you mean about box set releases that don't come with any decent bells and whistles, or that have inflated prices. But when a box puts albums back in print or includes bonus content (like the Eels box), I can get behind it.

That Eels box set seems pretty nice.

It's a shame they are going to have to stop printing all these for the footloose rerelease.

At least the Judgement Night soundtrack and ANOTHER Ghostbusters soundtracks are getting reissues *eye roll*

On that note, I have a friend who strictly buys only soundtracks. He's super into them, I guess. And he's loving all of these reissues. I don't get it.

I knew someone who collected multiple copies of the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack.

But yeah I'm the dick pointing out these reissues are asinine.

There are guys on Vinyl Collective with huge collections of porn soundtracks (nsfw album art ahead): http://boards.vinylcollective.com/topic ... acks-nsfw/
