Johnny Cash: With His Hot & Blue Guitar!
the Blue Ridge Rangers Ac/Dc: Let There Be Rock Deep Purple: Made in Japan Led Zeppelin: In Through the Out Door Lou Reed: Street Hassle J.J. Cale: Okie the Ramones: It´s Alive Scorpions: In Trance About Nirvana, saw yesterday original Us Bleach in a pink vinyl...I think it was 120 euros. |
Well, according to Discogs that Pink is repress from 1992:
http://www.discogs.com/Nirvana-Bleach/release/1930573 and not really worth of 120 euros (well somebody´s asking 200 in discogs). You must be really careful these days & don´t automatically believe what sellers say, saw yesterday also bootlegs from Ac/Dc australian pressings...and that Johnny Cash that I bought has slightly different songs that the original album...noticed it just when I was home. |
Last purchases while on my vacation:
Reissue of #1 Record by Big Star "Everything" by The Bangles Soundtrack to the 1978 animated Lord of the Rings |

Reissue of #1 Record? Is it recent/from this year? |
Yesterday I bought three albums from local record store here in Helsinki:
Thurston Moore: The Best Day Scott Walker & Sunn O))): Soused Wilco: Yankee Hotel Foxtrot All in vinyl format. Soused is probably the best album released in 2014! |

I thought there was a Discogs thread too but can't find it so I started a new one. http://www.sonicyouth.com/gossip/sho...d.php?t=110285 My main reason for listing my entire collection is to help me stop buying duplicates. It will be a lot easier to check if I already own something now... I got a couple more shelves of records to list then I'm done but it does take a long time to do. Some releases have over 100 different versions so it can be difficult working out which one you have. I also have a pile of things not listed on Discogs so I will have to submit new entries for them... |

I have seen Radio City lately as well, but #1 Record had more of the songs I wanted right away. Do miss "I'm In Love With A Girl" though. |
No Energy is great, and I'm reminded of how much I love Unwound. Honestly I was so pumped for the release that I somehow convinced myself it was the final box of the reissue series.
But now I remember I still have one to wait for, and it covers the defining era of the band's history. But I can wait, because these reissues have been the most rewarding of all the reissues that have hit over the last several years. Fucking ace, Unwound. Absolutely fucking ace. |
Boards of Canada - Music Has the Right to Children, 2xLP reissue, about a year ago. The little woman and I played that all through our miserable Iowa winter. It got us through. "Yeah, that's right..."

Is it just me or would Every boards album be perfect for that except for Tomorrow's Harvest? That one is great... Like, really great. But it is depressing as fuck. |

The Seer - Swans
![]() Fuuuuuuuccckkkkk. So awesome |
Radio City - Big Star
Grace - Jeff Buckley Hopefully both are here really soon. I know Buckley should be here this week. Not sure on Radio City, AND I know of a local place that likely has a 1986 german pressing, which I'm pretty much planning to buy as well. |
I also got New Order - Lowlife
![]() used vinyl. awesome. and the box set of the Fine Arts Quartet doing Bela Bartok's String Quartets. |

Yeah, this has proven itself to be a classic with serious staying power despite the fact that it was released only 2.5 short years ago. It's great to see the future of noise rock being defined by such a classic band. I don't really see To Be Kind generating the same steadily increasing fervor. By this point in 2012 it was game, set, match, SWANS. It's still a top ten record, though, and I'm going to have to go back and listen some more before making a final determination about where it ranks on my personal list. |
Yeah, I like Tomorrow's Harvest, but it is hard to get through. Which is to say, I hear its greatness, but it's a real downer.
Children, on the other hand, is somehow uplifting. Quote:

So is Campfire Headphase. Maybe more chillaxed than uplifting, but whatever.

My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult - Spooky Tricks (2014)
![]() I saw these guys last summer with one "DJ Toxic Rainbow" at a crappy little club with shit acoustics. It was a spur of the moment kind of thing, totally unplanned, but when I saw that they were playing I said "what the hell." After all, I spent a fair chunk of my teenage years digging into WaxTrax! bands and signees of Trent Reznor's Interscope housed Nothing imprint as a result of my love for the early work of Nine Inch Nails and Ministry. Seeing them triggered some nostalgic urge to check out their more recent recordings, and even though the camp and cheese are more present than ever, I can't help the fact that I genuinely enjoy this kind of music. I can see how it's influenced many of the current generation's more tongue in cheek, pseudo electronic artists like Tobacco/Black Moth Super Rainbow, Octopus Project, Dan Deacon and (my beloved) Fuck Buttons and Black Bug. It's like... well, remember when White Zombie was actually a pretty good band? Before Rob Zombie started making music exclusively for the Ozzfesy crowd, ignoring his dance-floor pedigrees and trading in synths for a backing band that amounted to little more than a bush league imitation of Antichrist Superstar era Marilyn Manson? ... well, MLWTTKK is kinda like that. Only with the new-wavey noire vocals of KMFDM. There's a lot to like about this album, if not a great deal to *love.* It makes for a good listen that takes me back to the archaeological investigations of industrial dance that followed the breakout success of The Downward Spiral: a record that came out at the perfect time, when alt rock was fading into purposeless post-grunge monotony. ... Probably not a particularly popular band on this board, but y'know, fuck it. It's good shit. |
Howlin Wolf: The Real Folk Blues (finally found this)
Risto: Live! |
Picked up these for a grand total of $5

MLWTTKK were always one of my fave bizarre bands back in the early 90's their shows were insane! Confessions of a Knife and Sexxxplosion are some of my all time faves |

Fuck yeah! I actually truly enjoyed early White Zombie too, but they never had a fully realized industrial sound. I have respect for Rob as a filmmaker, but the man's music has been awful for eons now. Nothing like the culty horror noire of MLWTTKK and KMFDM and Ministry and Pig and so on. I went through a serious industrial dance kick in the '90s. I still love Pretty Hate Machine so much, schmaltz and all. |
Well, I made a haul yesterday.
First off, I found a *perfect* used copy of the 2007 "Collector's Edition" of U Unknown Pleasures, which (before going out of print) contained the full 7-13-79 show at the Factory in Manchester. ![]() Then, it was pure coincidence that J happened upon a used copy of the new Deerhoof album, La Isla Bonita. Well worth the money. Then I got a deal, and was able to completely rebuild my J Dilla discography, which has been entirely iTunes-based since the great car break-in of 2010. So I'm back with physical copies of The Shining & Ruff Draft, and most inportantly Donuts. Also deluxe reissue of CHRIST - The Album, which is balls out of course. |
Going to take my sweet time with this:
