Oh uh I've actually made a bunch of purcahses recently that I haven't noted. About a month ago, I picked up the Pianos Become the Teeth/Ezra Joyce 7" split. Then about two weeks later I picked up A Q and Not U 7", a Rites of Spring 7", and A 7" split between DC pop punk sweethearts The Max Levine Ensamble and the band they sound way too much like whos name I can't remember. Somewhere in there I picked up a Cult Ritual 7" out of a box at a hardcore show. And two days ago I picked up Secret Name by Low. I would post pictures but my camera cord is MIA.

Though the great artwork on Animal Crack Box makes me happy, I must say it's far from essential. Yawn.

Got a couple random ones lately...7" White stripes cover of Lord Send me an Angel. side b You're Pretty Good Looking. Cover art sucks but I like that track. Finally picked up Grizzly Bear Yellow House, I never got around to buying that so I gave my friend Feels for it. Oh yeah, and someone gave me Isis- Celestial because I commented on how its one of the few harder bands I enjoy. That was sweet. I've been contemplaying purchasing some El Guincho... only heard a track or two but I liked what I heard.

Retrospectre · « **Reply #53 on:** 30 Jun 2009, 01:52 »

Were all the copies of Monoliths and Dimensions that price or you just find one priced wrong?

For $10 I'm willing to give that one a go.

Caspian · « **Reply #54 on:** 30 Jun 2009, 02:21 »

It was $10. The sale probably ended today, though, so it may well be $25 again tomorrow.

Eagles - Hell Freezes Over

Wal-mart has recently stocked some good, cheap CD's that I am going ot buy a few of. I only had ten dollars and this one cost me 9, but they have a Best of Van Morrison for 5 dollars and I know only one song on it.

theoryC · « **Reply #58 on:** 03 Jul 2009, 06:37 »

Bought Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating in Space off Amazon for a couple bucks. Been a while since I've bought an album without hearing it first, to be honest.

Last one I got was "To the Confusion of Our Enemies" by The Riverboat Gamblers. Pretty good, but that was like a month ago.

I need to get out more.

valley_parade · « **Reply #67 on:** 19 Jul 2009, 06:04 »

Went to a show at a record store Friday night.

(oh yes, Broken Star on gray marble!)

I'll admit I've never heard of Thao, but hey, a split with the Thermals!

TheFuriousWombat · « **Reply #68 on:** 19 Jul 2009, 08:06 »

Thao Nguyen is pretty good. She played at my school. Nothing particularly special, just nice kinda rockin singer-songwriter stuff if I recall correctly. Indiefolkrock or whatever you wanna call it.

orangepeas · « **Reply #69 on:** 19 Jul 2009, 10:07 »

Just got:

Xela/The North Sea split - Electronic Music Vol. 1 (LP, Rite Records)
Xela w/ Greg Haines and Danny Saul - The 12th Chapel (LP, Type Records)
Xela - In Bocca al Lupo (2xLP, Type Records)

I would post pictures but there's not much point. The album covers are very cool methinks but couldn't be much more minimal. The first two are just white with a small hand stamped label in the middle (the first w/ all credits in Latin, the second in English and hand numbered, both marked as editions of 300. The third is in a light brownish sleeve with a weird little symbol on the front, nothing else).
Hooray for awesome, kinda scary noise!

Guys should I pre-order the new Kidcrash? Should I get it on clear vinyl with black bubbles, transparent yellow, or transparent red?

Transparent yellow obviously. It matches the title!

Valley Parade- The Broadways cover art is nothing short of wonderful!

Just ordered.....

Deerhunter- Rainwater cassette exchange

Jonsi & Alex- Riceboy sleeps

Grizzly Bear- Horn of Plenty

Though I don't expect too much from Riceboy sleeps, the cover art pushed me over the edge. Debating a couple other purchases.

Koremora · « **Reply #81 on:** 24 Jul 2009, 13:55 »

Riceboy Sleeps is fucking awesome. Well, unless you don't like ambient music. In which case you won't like it. Did you get the special edition box set? I am still waiting for mine to come in.

Lexington, 125 · « **Reply #82 on:** 24 Jul 2009, 18:45 »

I like all kinds of music including ambient, just from my preliminary listens it doesn't strike me as anything groundbreaking. No special edition box set for me as I prefer to own it on vinyl. Pretty bummed they didn't have a special edition pressed on vinyl though....

Koremora · « **Reply #83 on:** 25 Jul 2009, 01:07 »

It's certainly not groundbreaking, but then most things aren't. It is, however, a very beautiful, moving, interesting, and well-constructed album of ambient music. In that regard it's excellent.

He could be. He was recommended to me on this forum, so all I know is that he's got some fans here.

*edit* It was in fact TheFuriousWombat who gave the original recommendation.

oh fuck yeah! album is legendary. check out "hot charity/cut carefully & play loud" if you haven't already, as the "hot charity" album is just about the best thing they ever did (and the other half of the comp ain't bad either!).

guys convince me the baroness album that is out right now is worth 30 bucks.

No. I refuse to.

Just got two double CD sets: John Williams doing guitar concertos (Vivaldi is the only name I recognize, the rest are all like Villa-Lobos and Castelnuovo-Tedesco), and the other is The Last Waltz. Awesome.
