What are you picking up, /mu/?How early are you getting out of bed?
Gonna look for the I love you, Honeybeard single. And maybe the Swans EP. About 5am
>>55219290honeybear
>>55219263I know it's a long-shot, but if I'm going to snag anything it's going to be The Holy Bible reissue and the Red House Painters reissues. Otherwise, there isn't a whole hell of a lot I'm interested in picking up.
Hoping I can snag a Blur - Lonesome Street flexidisc
Nothing because the selection is shit and it floods the market with a bunch of useless junk that only serves to help the larger record labels and screw over the small onesI bought a bunch of stuff at my record store today because I still believe in supporting record stores, though.
Maybe Slayer.
I'm too sick to go.I'll see what's left on Monday
WHAT A SURPRISE THERE ARE MORE FLAMIN LIPS RECORDS COMING OUT
>>55219263Nothing because my salary was cut.
>>55219501what's wrong anon?
depending on if i go to sleep>Get up at 4 for a shower.>Head into town.>Park my car.>Walk to city center. >Meet friends, around 5.>Que until half 8.>Buy records.>Go to breakfast buffet at a pub ner where i live.And I'm buying Atreyu- So others may live, Biffy Clyro- Puzzle, Brand New- Deja Entendu, Mastodon- Atalanta, While She Sleeps- Four walls, and At the Gates Gardens of Grief.
I'll be up at 5
This is gonna be my first RSD...store opens at nine, what time should I get there? I don't plan to pick up any RSD exclusive shit, I just wanna get a good deal on some records. Like, if I show up at twelve there's still gonna be shit there right?
>>55219709Most people that get there early will be buying RSD exclusive stuff, the store may still be busy by twelve but as long as they're having sales on regular stock I don't see why you would need to go earlier
>>55219709most stores I think have stuff going on all day. If you're not going for RSD exclusives you wont miss out. however I don't think there's any special discount on other releases so don't have high hopes for "good deals"
i got fuckin work. wont get in there till 5pm. most of the goodies will be gone.
>>55219709yeah, the earlier hours will be the people after exclusives who most of will get their stuff and leave
>>55219732>>55219741Ah cool, thanks for the help.
Earliest open over here is 8am. Friend and I are planning to get there at 7 cuz we want the limited deals. Should we get there earlier?
>>55219709Yeh I went on sunday last year, because I couldn't get off work and still got what I wanted. I'd say if you wanted something like Protect ya neck get there early cause its gona be a high demand item. So your time for getting there depends on what you want to buy
>>55219741Depends on the store, my favorite local store has discounts all weekendIt was something like $2 off LP's, $3 off 2xLP's, $4 off imports, and it kind of varies for higher priced stuff
reminder to everyone not to buy the Music For 18 Musicians reissue.it's a horrible recording of the piece, let alone being cut across 4 sides completely ruins the point of isteer clear people
I want Holy Bible, Black Bastards, Music for 18 Musicians, and that The Message 7 inch
>>55219884how do you know it's a terrible recording?
Any of you guys know what time McDonalds opens for breakfast at in the uk want to get a bite before i head to the lines
>>55219916The performance itself, not the play qualityThe nonesuch one sucks.
>>55219741>If you're not going for RSD exclusives you wont miss outkinda true, although not every store orders every release... consider getting their early if your waiting for a niche record(whether or not its on the exclusive list)
>>55219884>>55219895kek
>>55219316>i loved you honeybeeyou retarded anon?
I'm in glasgow and theres people lined up outside stores already.Too Far.
Im in East Lansing, theres 2 record stores doing record store day and one has not advertised anything about RSDHow early should I go?
I'm not going until around 4, because my local store has They Might Be Giants playing around then.
was out til around 4 last night, woke up at just before 9 today and walked to the record storeso glad to have picked this up!
>>55220488how's Minneapolis these days anon?
>>55220474I forgot to mention, the one that didn't advertise RSD opens at 11, would 10 be too late to go?
Does anyone know what the price is for the At The Gates - Gardens Of Grief EP????
dont plan on going out for anything too rare or neat, namely the Swans EP, as I already have To Be Kind, which is enoughWas just gonna get something simple i can listen to that I enjoy>pic related
i am getting the springsteen reissues. before you say anything, every copy i've found of his records have been warped and or scratched to shit. i am not too thrilled, but i am also very excited.
>>55220693u must be a jerseyfag
>>55220739no you are a jerseyfag.
>tfw nearest record store is ~2 hours away>tfw was planning to go anyway>tfw I now have to be somewhere else all morning
>>55220645I'd guess no more than £15.00
>>55219630thinken about lyfeBut I'm pretty sure it's food poisoning.
>>55220755:^)
>>55220907>Life is food poisoning.Damn...
>>55219263Probably like 7 or 8 amI have a few things I'm keeping an eye out for: Some Pavement albums, Live/Dead, Gorillaz Plastic Beach, Electric Wizard, some Fugazi anything else I happen to see that catches my attention
>>55220474>>55220628pls
POLARIS
Swans self titled, Ride double LP collection, Run The Jewels, Honeybear, KMD picture disc/cdAlso already in line
OPN - Commissions IISteve Reich - Music for 18 MusiciansPolaris - Songs from Pete & PeteMetallica - No Life Til Leather Tape (Kill 'em All is my fav of theirs, so it'd be cool to have a piece of replicated history)Sleep is putting out a Dopesmoker picture disk, but I think it's going into production rather than being an exclusive.
>>55221108no, im sure that's totally fine. you wont be the first in but youll be there at opening. dont stress anon
Probably that Johnny Marr single
>>55219263Love Buzz by Shocking Blue
>>55219263steve reich lpshocking blue 45time warp 45 (dating a guy the loves rocky horror, his birthday is coming up, and im pretty sure he collects records)
>the weepies>RTJ>Brand New>okkervil maybe

>>55219791>protect ya neck high demand item yeah okay why would everyone flock for that

>>55221952Like 40 right now
LORD PRETTY FLACKO JODYE
>>55223313
>>55222543Because it's one of Wu-Tang Clan's best songs and one of the best posse cuts of all time.>>55222724Didn't really care for their new album. Thought it was pretty bad. Even as a single, Ibeza was pretty weak as far as I'm concerned. But get whatever you want, man. Enjoy it.
just got back from my local record shop, got the OFF! and the Run The Jewels record store day exclusives. Also picked up The Money Store and The Powers That B pretty happy with them! Sadly i missed out on those Metallica tapes
>>55219365>>55220556will be looking for these, as well as the OPN and BBNG releases
hoping to snag KMD's CD if I ca find it. What are other coop reissues?
>>55223540Hip hop reissues *
>>55223540Black Bastards, man. Nice. Yeah, I'm looking for Eyedea's shit too. The reissue of E&A I mean. Shouldn't be too sought after.
Music for 18 Musicians, Moody EP, possibly the VSnares reissues because Huge Chrome Cylinder Box is a kickass album and I want Rossz on white vinyl without the shitty cover of the current press
do you guys know if the Swans EP is the original mastering or the remaster?
>>55224063Probably a remaster, but I honestly don't know.
>>55224117:(I know thats probably what its going to be but I was hopeful
I already reserved the RTJ, OPN And Father John Misty records. So those.
Ministry Trax Box and the No Life Till Leather reissue
>>55224646was so sad that my store only got 2 copies of no life till leather. 2 big metalheads turned up 4 hours before opening to get them!
When will the Boris cover of Lithium be out? I need this nooow~!
FJM and Courtney Barnett for my gf.Decemberists and Built to Spill for myself.
>>55224828nvm, found it. Holy fuck it's good.
FJM, Courtney, and Phish.
>tfw work at a record store>tfw I always get what I want without waiting in lineFeels good man
>>55225374>TFW I've wanted to work at a record store for about as long as I can remember.>TFW there are two in my hometown, just a ten minute walk from my house.>TFW I feel it's something I could actually do, something I'm actually qualified to do.>TFW my numerous attempts to find employment at these record stores have all ended in failure.>TFW it's a fairly humble dream but it's still out of reach.
>>55225416I know the feel...
Flaming Lips' EPsof Montreal Live albumOPNPsychocandy LiveThai Pop Spectacular
>>55225416open your own, destroy the competition...have them close down, and tell them you would be interested in having them work for you. upon receiving their resume, do nothing.
>>55225416i saw a guy in a bowtie apply at a local record shop and he told them how pitchfork was his homepage. it hurt watching.
who /inline/ here
>>55224880Built to Spill is just an early release, fyi. It'll be cheaper and easier to get in a few months.
>>55225673reporting incoffee place opposite just opened
is the KMD CD exclusive/limited release? I don't feel like getting there early as fuck for something that's basically just "oh, this is neat to have"I don't even botber with RSD lists anymore because every store gets one copy of the actual good shit and so it's next to impossible to get what you want. Shit clogs up pressing plants for months so shitheads can resell garbage-ass pressing on discogs for exorbitant prices.Only interested in KMD and Coachwhips - Bangers Vs Fuckers
>>55219921There's plenty of 24hr places about, if not usually 6am
Please some kind soul rip the ministry trax box releases, i really want to hear that remastered RevCo
I really hope no one in my town gives a fuck about vsnares because all I want is fucking rossz on fucking wax. My local diy scene is all gonna be camping out for brand new so I feel like the odds are in my favor
Was gonna head into Rough Trade earlier but got drunk last night and slept in instead.Heading there now. All I want is Prospect Hummer. Please Zeus.
>I was 3rd in queue>there was only one copy of the badge shaped Fuck The Police>The cunt in front of me bought it
I'm going to go to my store 30 minutes before they open and then be the first in the door, buy everything high-demand, and then leave. My store doesn't slowly put stuff out over the day even tho they should, they just throw it all out on the shelves.
>>55227093There will be a line you dumb cunt
>>55227193nigga you don't even know where I live. my city has /way/ more popular stores, the one I'm going to almost no one knows about because they don't advertise and you can't find them from the street either.don't call people a dumb cunt because their city works differently than others.
>>55219263The catalog this year is honestly thoroughly underwhelming. At least for me, anyway. So, not buying anything.
Welp. Just got back from the store. Only got Biffy Clyro's Puzzle though, the only other things they had of interest were Anco's Prospect Hummer and Chvrches - Dead Air but both were a little too pricey for something so far down my want list.Gonna head to Glasgow tomorrow and see if anyone has OPN but I doubt it.
Nearest store posted list and had nothing good in stock, and the next store is an hour away.I'm just going to stay in.
Just got back only really wanted slowdive fuck me why do people have such anxiety and assburgers over a fucking record.the people round me were literally shacking.one boy walked in sperging some mile long list and having a autistic fit when stuff was gone.its just a record
>>55227468If it's just a record why did you go, rather than just listen to mp3s HUH
>>55227490i just wanted to pick up something i like because i like vinyl. it just seemed odd to me how weird people were acting over it is all
>>55227507Some people enjoy things. It's stupid, I know.
>>55227518not what i was saying but twist it what ever way you want mate
>>55225564ew
looking for deja endtedu and that point never lp
>>55227605oh and zappa
didnt really want anything desperately this year, though i went out to look for prospect hummer anyway. couldnt find it, but i suppose thats better for my bank accountsaw the opn release though and was tempted, but im not a huge fan of his so i decided against it. now i feel like i shouldve bought one anyway. maybe ill go back in tomorrow and see if theyve still got any
Why is the metal music always so shit for record store day its like they think the only type of metal music is bay area thrash and shitty kerrang tier bands
Did anyone end up getting records that were warped?
>>55227850yeah run the jewels and wu tang
Go into store see a tape "oh cool" store usually doesn't stock tapes... It's fucking shitalica and it costs 25€ for a fucking tape ,what is wrong with the world
no i can't even leave the house anymore. i've become convinced that i'm the ugliest person on the planet. i wanted that merzxiu though.
>tfw no albums i want
>>55228359anon, im pretty sure merzxiu was available online...
>>55227706>saw ace of spades>classic fucking motorhead>so excited cant wait to get this>51AUDFUCK THAT.35 and over is a no go for me. That shit is criminal.
>>55228468>merzxiuthis anon is correct, but it is sold out.
is there a list of the releases on RSD?
>been in line since midnight >just found out Dark Jovian got delayedGreat
>>55228340Last year it was a bunch of tapes of Elliott Smith's old band. They were all shit. Also, there's a fucking Cassette Store Day now, if you're that much of a sad autist.
Does anyone know that the mystery 7" is yet?
Hitting the hip hop record store, hopefully gonna have the kmd and rtj release. Also hopefully the dilla stuff, they should cause I'm from Detroit but you never know. If not Im picking up the powers that b and House Shoes the Gift Vol.4: TUAMIE. Heading in after work around 11 am
Who /inline/ here?
>>55227468I wanted slowdive too, queued for over an hour and it sold out by the time I was at the door. Kinda sucked but you're right, no big deal.
>>55228599I queued for an hour several years ago and I was near the door. Queuing for an hour last year would have put you way down the street.
The record stores in my town only sell used and reissued classic rock albums :) kill me
>>55229061Tough break anon. You landed on the wrong side of vinyl collectors.
my local store opened up early.. got OPN so far. gonna venture out to a couple more places in a bit..only on the hunt for the Amanaz - Africa reissue which seems kinda rare/niche.... pretty good so far though
>>55228599order it online, a few places have it at non scalper prices
>>55229785sorry to be lazy but could you link me please
>>55229804http://www.amazon.co.uk/Blue-Day-Ltd-Blue-Vyn-180gr-VINYL/dp/B00W8J8KNA/it might not work in clapistan
>>55229872ty
>>55228340Tape prices are going up. It's the new fad and it is slowly breaking back into the mainstream. Expect $10 to be the new norm.
>>55219263Hoping to get the Brand New reissue. I fucking hate their music, but I know I can resell that one for a lot later.
>>55230044do tapes have any sound value like vinyl
>>55230054>do tapes make noise?
>>55230054A lot of people like the low bit depth and the hiss. It's a lo-fi sort of attraction. Boards of Canada actually record all their music to tape before mastering it, so it's good if you like that type of music, or OPN type stuff.
I haven't been to a RSD but was thinking of going today. How much does the average 12" usually run you if it's limited release?
>>55230092One Thousand Dollars.But no, it's still expensive, an LP is like $30 average maybe
>>55230073i bet bm would sound good on it then
>>55230128Yeah that's expensive as shit. I may just head over just to be a part of the festivities and buy some old cheap stuff.
>>55230133Yeah, black metal is another good genre for tape.
Why do so many people want the Swans EP?Don't you know that was their worst release?
>>55230143That's what I normally do. RSD stuff generally doesn't interest me. A Minor Forest's represses last year were pretty nice, though. Four records for only $35, and it was a great pressing.
>>55230212I really don't know. It's an awful album, it shouldn't be so anticipated. I wish they would have issued a Soundtracks For the Blind box set instead.
>>55225824I'm in the same boat as you oak. Only really want the KMD. Not worth squabbling over the CD though. Black bastards is getting a 2xLp reissue later in the summer.RSD has become pure marketing for the big labels. Glad the mom and pop stores are making a killing though
>>55228500Yeah on the rsd site you fucking prole
>>55219263i wish i wasnt a shut in - going to a record store sounds like a lot of fun
>buying music
>>55230318>not supporting artists you truly enjoy the work of by buying physical copies of their work.
>>55219263The first people got to my record store at like 6pm yesterday, I know this because the record store posted pictures of them on their Instagram.
>>55230044I went to cassette store day in London last year and spent around 30£ on about five or six nicely made tapes with custom packaging and all ,I swear to god if bands like Metallica hop on the tape shit and blow the prices up I'm gone rage
>>55230401It's already happening. Places around me that sell tapes are marking up prices and selling them faster. Hipsters who hate cds but are being priced out of collecting vinyl have turned to cassettes as their other format of choice. It's a consumer trend and like all other consumer trends it will be capitalized on.
>>55219263I'm probably not going to go until around 5 or 6 because none of the exclusives really interest me, except the shocking blue 7, but I'm sure I'll find some great left over albums there
Just got back. Needed a new vinyl player. Mission accomplished.
>>55230533awesome pick up
Anyone have pics of Deja Entendu? I love the album but I only recently heard it and I'm content with the regular reissue. I am curious what's in the bag, though.I was like 40th in line and got> Xiu Xiu - Fabulous Muscles> Oneohtrix Point Never - Commissions II> Venetian Snares - Huge Chrome Cylinder Box Unfolding and Hungarian albumI'm pretty happy with the day tbh
>>55225416Beta Faggot
>>55230533I heard you have to put a coin on the needle head tho, so you can hear the awesome bass lines !
>>55230586Damn, wanted to get Rossz but they sold out. Ended up grabbing Winter in the Belly of a Snake instead
Great, I missed it.
>>55230742I almost got Winter, but it came down to the two of them and I figured that one would be easier to grab later.They're all amazing albums though
Was going to pick up the Dresden Dolls triple LP. Then i realised it was nearly £60. Are you fucking kidding me?
