Glad to see people loving the Aliens, the score is incredible and it sounds wonderful.

Did anyone get that Aliens variant with the green go inside the record? I imagine it has some sound quality issues but damn if it didn't look cool.

Not I, I'd actually gotten some weird variant from Newbury Comics before LV426 day. Mondo's obviously extremely fucking strange with their production.
Nothing like artificial scarcity! /s

would your job involve keeping an eye out for The Specials - Ghost Town 12" Single? I'd sure appreciate that.
Also procured these today:
everything but the Sonic Youth record is 1st pressing. Happy Birthday to me!
Condition? Brand spanking mint scrooge mcduck good or is mint ok?
M/NM or even VG+. I really just like that track and that cover is a classic.

There isn't anything special about it except for the fact that it is a phenomenal album, but Fragile by Yes is getting a new release tomorrow on 180g vinyl.
The week after there will be new reissues of Radiohead's catalogue.

I'll see what I have in stock. Just got 3k albums in. I'll PM you if I find it. If I find one that's VG+/VG I might even just throw it your way on the house.
Great song though dude. One of my absolute favorites! I always give it a listen around September/October.
Whoo, thanks dude.

How often do you guys change your needle?
Bruce Springsteen

I believe that depends on how much you use it also
It shouldn't be regularly. As long as you have it properly calibrated it could be a good long while before you need to.
(Or until you want to start upgrading for purely quality reasons, but then your talking about having to think about new speakers, receiver, other components).

Went trekking through my local music stores this past weekend. Picked up more than I should have.
Any particularly good pickups in Vinyl GAF this past weekend?

Alien 3 is such an underrated score.
Preach. I prefer it to Aliens

Alien 3 is underrated in general. Good to see Mondo doing an Alien release.
I like you.
7 Months and I've finally spin cleaned and dried my records and replaced all of the inner sleeves with anti-static sleeves.
<> the journey is over.
Also Temporary Residence is having a 20% off sale using code "TRL20". Catch is that you can only use it once per customer so choose wisely.

Local store had some awesome stuff the other day. An early pressing of Rubber Soul in really good condition, but I passed on it. They also had an original pressing of Master of Puppets, but it was $50. I passed on that as well, because the new pressing of it is only $20.
But they have the Record Store Day release of Transformers The Movie used for $25. If it is there tomorrow, I will bite.

Never thought I'd see The Privilege in this thread.
Never thought someone would recognize it!
I bought all the individual EPs as they came out and eventually the boxset encasing with the last one
Still haven't picked up the abridged version, though.

I got into Parenthetical Girls as the last EP was coming out, bought the set as a "reward" for landing a co-op when I was in college.
I also don't have the abridged version, don't see a need for it? Wish they'd make more material, though.
Privilege was something super special, and I was excited for what they'd do next.Original MoP sounds better than the remaster. Remaster peaks super hard and has timny drums. I did a side by side on my system.

Hmmm. May not bite then. It was mainly for superficial reasons, like the transforming packaging.

This is starting to be a common thing in remasters... it is really sad honestly. Not all records and the remasters are created equally.
Always important to double check!

We need to make a "always practice smart purchasing" campaign in the gist of practice safe sex.
Players.. What is GAF running what are your setups.
I hope this picture is not as big on the forum as it is on my computer. If so, someone give me some tips to size it down.
Anyway, not sure if I mentioned these purchases before, but most have arrived recently so I assume I have not posted a picture of them.
1. Black Swan Soundtrack
2. Home Alone Soundtrack
3. Hannibal the TV series soundtrack
4. Aliens Soundtrack
5. Pixies- Surfer Rosa
6. Muse- Drones
7. Baby Metal- I assume self titled
8. Weezer- Self Titled White Album
9. Weezer- Pinkerton reissue
10. Sia- Colour The Small One
11. David Bowie- Blackstar Special Edition
12. David Bowie- 5 years Boxset
13. Star Wars the Force Awakens- I hate that it is a picture disk but what are you going to do?
14. Ben Folds- Rockin the Subrurbs
15. Kate Bush- 50 Words for Snow
16. Kate Bush- The Whole Story (Greatest hits pre The Sensual World)
17. The Knife- Deep Cuts
So I have four records arriving in the next few days, but I thought it would be fun to do a bit of a series on 500 or so records I own that my step father let me borrow. Maybe try and look at 5 of them a week or something if I have the time.
Weird shit ranging from Texas A&M marching band stuff, to recorded speaches by Hitler, to the record version of Lady and the Tramp. Just let me know if any of you are interested, because I have to listen to and document this stuff before I can write about it.

New stuff yay!
Schammasch - Triangle.
Dr Dre - The Chronic. Didn't realize it was the digital remaster. Hopefully it sounds good or else sadface.
Neurosis - Strength and Vision boxset. Every album of theirs on vinyl and cd. Art book with the original covers of the albums, and some additional goodies.

The Chronic is a tough one. The original was a Bernie Grundman master, but really hard to find a decent condition copy that isn't going for $80+.
The remaster is fine, but it is remastered louder and lacks some of that deep punch you'd only get with adding some more weight to your needle. Even then it peaks hard.

Remaster of The Chronic isn't bad. Unless you have deep pockets for a good condition original you will be happy.
Bought three new vinyls as soon as I got the cash. I was waiting for the minuteman LP for several months and finally got it. Bought untitled unmastered on a whim with it.
The Drones - The Miller's Daughter is a blues punk album that I stumbled upon a second hand store. Loved it but didn't have the money for it. Bought it now for 30. This particular edition is limited to 500 copies and I'm glad that I got it for relatively cheap because I'm friends with the store owner.

It seems that someone in town just unloaded their collection of classic rock and 80s metal. I didn't get all I wanted to because some old albums were $15-20, but did manage to snag a bunch of 80s metal gems today.
I got a copy of Judas Priest's "Screaming for Vengeance" today, which I also happened to get the 30th anniversary picture disc of last week. While the new one still sounds good, the original release sounds so much fuller. Now I am regretting getting the new pressing, as it is opened and I cannot return it. Oh well, it still looks cool.
