My Latest Purchases Thread

Deal. I will look extremely excited provided it shows up in complete condition without consequence. Oh, it'll be a perfect time to drink beer out of my Ceremonial Goblet, featuring Albrecht Dürer artwork. I only use that for special occasions.

 

[MFJ]

@Crimson Velvet: I ended up with spending most of the money I brought with me in Sound Of Noise and Tiger instead, so no Neseblod for me (pity its location sucks, I would've visited Neseblod if it had been located more centrally, plus time was scarce) :\

 

[Crimson Velvet]

^^^
Yeah, that's pretty much the reason why I don't visit it more often also. They have a metal selection at Tiger? I've never bothered to actually enter that shop, as Sound of Noise is only ten feet away...

 

[Henrik Main]

Yeah, they did have some metal at Tiger, both CD and vinyl. I almost feel guilty for not having the time to go to Neseblod, I really respect individuals such as those behind that shop, as it's got a strict "underground record collector" attitude, which is very good in my book. The metal selection in Sound Of Noise was pretty standard actually, I'd hoped for more obscure stuff seeing as I've moved a bit away from ONLY listening to Old Man's Child, Morbid Angel, Emperor, Satyricon etc :\

 

[Crimson Velvet]

They normally have some rare stuff at Sound of Noise, but it always sells out rather quickly. The trick is to know when the next shipment comes in. But as far as extreme metal goes, then yeah, it's not too great. Their heavy/power metal seletion is quite good, though... Too bad I don't listen to that...

Heh, that's what I thought too

They could do with a better death metal selection, as that's my favourite genre, but they did have quite a lot of black metal when thinking of it. Decent store by Norwegian standards.

 

[Crimson Velvet]

They have their own demo section, as well. It's mostly heavy metal, I think, but sometimes I see some corpse paint, and I might buy it. Who knows, maybe it turns out to be really, really great! That has never been the case, though...

I quickly browsed that demo section, but didn't find anything that looked very interesting either. That guy behind the counter (Rune) looked familiar, is he in a band?

 

[Crimson Velvet]

No idea... I'll ask him next time I'm there.

Whole bunch of crap showed up today, including:

Agalloch / Nest 10" vinyl. Wrapped in packing material, a small box, lots of packing peanuts, and a secondary larger outer box to ensure flawless delivery. Mission Accomplished.

Ulver - The Trilogie. Packed in a thin, form fitting carboard box, leaving approx. 1/4" clearance between the 3 expensive vinyls and some dumbass's foot. Thankfully everything arrived in near perfect condition, but still.

PS: Century Media are dumbasses, they misspelled Kveldssanger two different ways, on the tracklist sheet it says Kveldfanger and on the poster in says Kveldsfanger. But it's okay because the set is quite marvelous. Whee.

 

[MFJ]

... where are the pics. we had a deal.

 

[NAD]

I know. I'm going to take pictures using my SLR camera, my crappy workcameraphone will not do it justice. At all. The vinyls are simply stunning. The posters are in black & white which is sorta disappointing, but they are in perfect shape with no thumbtack holes or anything. The vinyls though... wow. I mean picture discs are fucking cool as it is, but these are just plain vibrant.

Note that I still have undeveloped film from my NYC vacation 3 months ago, so it might be awhile before they surface.
