Two for the piece of one!

I can see it taking 400 hours even with a guide! I could never commit myself to Korok completion but I did find 150 out of 153 caves without help. Last night I retired from Subnautica after 175 hours. I basically ran out of things I wanted to do. I saw that Below Zero is on sale but I think...

Agreed, except Steely Dan is absolutely not in that category. If anything those guys were composers first and foremost. I find Steely Dan’s Music more approachable than Joni’s, but it’s an apples versus oranges thing. She’s working with raw human emotions while SD’s approach is cynical and...

Curious to hear this; she’s my wife’s favorite artist. I think the price comes from being an independent artist and trying offer vinyl to fans in a way that is still profitable. People who just want the music can buy CDs for far less but we here are all crazy about our petroleum slabs.

I’m happy to report that my copy sounds great. It did come out quite dirty out of the sleeve and there were minor crackles on one of the quieter tracks but not enough to overpower the music (a proper cleaning would probably solve it). I’ve owned a bootleg of this record that was absolutely...

Bone Machine arrived today!

Informed Delivery tells me mine will arrive on the 16th…

Ah damn I’m still playing Subnautica on the Switch. More than 150 hours in. A few days ago I finished my second playthrough, this time on Hardcore mode (in which death causes the entire save file to be erased… I somehow survived the full 50 hours, but there were some tense times!). After that I...

“Fallen Angel” is a jam

September grabs! Cheap vintage Mingus and Monk from my local, plus Elusive deals (including a minor splurge on the 4xLP Belle & Sebastian where each disc is 45rpm on one side and 33 on the other). And the new Wilco.

Caught an enjoyable set in Arizona on Tuesday night. A few takeaways: “Evicted” sounded amazing live. “Bird Without a Tail” has grown into their newest reliable live jam. “Side With the Seeds” still rips. I’ll never get tired of Glenn’s on-cue stick twirl during “Heavy Metal Drummer.”

Under the Blacklight!!!!!

I dunno… I feel like it’s more likely this will be a $0 uDiscover item at some point!

You know, most picture discs that I’ve purchased over the past 10 years (all Cure records, I think) have sounded no worse than regular vinyl to my ears. The last picture disc dud I bought was Lady Gaga’s Fame Monster.

Counterpoint: the original mix of Entreat sounds phenomenal. Also, unlike Entreat Plus, the OG release features only some, and not all, of Disintegration. I love Show and Paris as well, and I’d say that if you do too, then you might as well hunt down an original pressing of Entreat. That version...

Thanks for sharing. Miles was already gone (whatever album that was) but I snagged No More Tears for under $15 shipped!

I love Vardy. What a folk hero.
