The Vinyl Thread


The Nal

Recommended Posts

Bought new Horrors one day before yesterday. Only had one spin but sounded great. Can't wait to see them now.

Currently got Barrence Whitfield belting out some soul on the vinyl I got at his gig last night.

If the Savages had been any tighter, they'd have been Yorkshiremen. Fucking amazing.

Did you get the 180g Horrors? Along with Beck's newie I think its one of the fullest sounding pressings of the year.

Wow, what an effort getting the booth to New York. Two of the coolest guys in rock and roll. I'm gonna buy the album soon I think. Have a little spending spree on Third Man. It has been too long since my last one.

I couldn't get into it. Will probably give it another chance though.

Had never really listened to Swans before so maybe not the best place to start?

I got The Seer but this is -so- much better.

Sorted myself a provisional turntable and speakers until I gather enough funds to get a better quality one. Got a few to get started including funeral arcade fire (180 g) which sounds brilliant. I used a seller on ebay called All_Your_Music, I got it for £12 brand new with free delivery from California, very happy with it. Am looking at getting Nick Cave's latest from the same supplier

Just bought myself the new Rodrigo y Gabriela which is frankly awesome. Sounds so, so good!

Also a couple of Rancid records (...And out come the wolves on white vinyl and Life Won't Wait on orange vinyl) in recent months which made me realise just how much I love Rancid.

Awesome stuff.

Reading this again inspires me to get on and purchase some new vinyl. Last item I bought though I picked up at a Gnarwolves gig. I'm off to search for some Rancid on vinyl right now though

The rancid stuff I think is a limited US set of reissues from Epitaph records (along with a ton of NoFx and pennywise too). Mine were bought from Rockaboom in Leicester. :)

    • f**king horrendous and seems they couldn’t run an egg and spoon race.  zero info and the crush waiting to get in to see Massive Attack was potentially disasterous. Zero info, no stewards at all and was told that the whole evening was cancelled, when we got to the exit. Because it rained. First time attendee and i’ve got onsay, i’m far from impressed. Scalping bastard taxis asking €37 plus for an €11 fare too. Wonderdul.
    • Rumours are it's called The Lost Tour. In the US in September. Ireland in November (so UK+Europe a good bet around November/early December). 
    • Hey guys, is there a group going for any solo y not goers this year?? I couldn’t miss out once I saw the acts but it’s just me and would be great to meet some others:))
    • After deciding to abandon the festival, here's a few of my thoughts (mostly negative tbf).    On the positive side - was it just me or were there a few more urinals than last year? Seemed to help the queues at the loos a bit from what i saw. Plus they had at least had some foresight and had a few more covered areas in the VIP areas.    Now on the negatives.  The weather was admittedly pretty crap but it wasn't apocalyptic. How the actual f**k are bits of the main stage falling off in those conditions?  Then the communication was awful, there's a load of people who left the site because they were told by security guards/other personnel that there would be no more acts on the main stage this evening.  You have an app Primavera, use it! Yes, there's a shitload going on I'm sure but communication with the festivalgoers should be one of the top priorities. You failed.    And I'm not usually somebody who buys into the whole "oh this is hugely unsafe and it's lucky people weren't hurt" narrative, but all the above led to movements of people that were genuinely unsafe.  Evacuating Mordor entirely (again... Why???) and then having a horde of people trying to get in because they thought they were going to Massive Attack was insane.  And given a lot of people basically abandoned ship around 10.30pm the crush at both the exit to the festival and the entrance to the Metro was pretty dangerous.   Conditions happen, most people will get that....but the contingencies have to be better. 
    • You'd think that something like bad weather was in the basics of festival planning. After the shitshow of Madrid, you'd think they'd learnt their lesson, apparently not...
