I do love a new purchase
valley_parade:
Yeaaaaaah, new 7"
Mr. Doctor:
It was my birthday... So I got nice stuff.
Amesoeurs - Amesoeurs [Crust Punk(?) with some Black metal influences and some alternative stuff too... Very nice stuff imo]
Akercocke - Words That Go Unspoken, Deeds That Go Undone [Opeth + Bigger Balls + Brutal + Some Black Metal = Akercocke]
My Dying Bride - As The Flower Withers [Death/Doom Metal]
Paradise Lost - Lost Paradise [Death/Doom Metal]
Unexpect - In A Flesh Aquarium [I don't like to use the "Avantgarde Metal" tag... But this is trully bizarre. Amazing... and I didn't knew there was a version with a previous EP as a double cd, sweeeeeeet.]

Just bought Pissed Jeans' King of Jeans on vinyl. It's all kinds of sick.

MUCH better to do as Constellation Records does and reward you for purchasing the more expensive vinyl by including the CD version with it. Vinyl is great as a fetish object, or for those that prefer the sound. However, the vast majority have much more use for a musical object that can be used in a large variety of portable devices, and can easily have the music contained within ripped to a computer. Vinyl does neither of these things.

Some smaller bands that I've ordered LPs from have even just thrown in a CD-R with the tracks on it, obviously just for the intention of giving the buyer the music in a lossless digital format which they can then rip to their computer at the bitrate of their liking, or chuck in their car, or use as a coaster, or whatever, all without the additional cost to the artist have getting CDs pressed. I think it's a great idea. I don't need a proper CD if I'm just using it for the files on it, and I've already got the presentation object, in the vinyl.
Obviously another option is including a download link with vinyl sales. I prefer a CD because, as previously mentioned, it allows me to rip at the quality that I want.
I haven't bought any music recently because I'm awful. I did buy a whole bunch of Henry Rollins Spoken Word CDs though.
