I shop online. Best Buy and Circuit City are the only places around here to get cd's (I live in Buffalo Grove, the lake county side). With gas prices being so high, I really don't want to drive around all the time making trips to Impulse, etc. So it's easier to click a few buttons and buy a few discs online each month. Plus the prices are decent online for some albums too.

Sometimes I get lucky - I did find the Cavalera cd at Best Buy in April.

As for the Warrel Dane cd, I like it so far. I'm sure it will grow on me once I get some time for devoted listens. Haven't given it some hard listens, since it showed up today and I only listed to it at work, but it's awesome to hear Warrel in a different capacity than Nevermore. Most songs are 3:30 to 4 min long. The Sisters of Mercy cover rules.

Musically, it's much more simplistic with most of the songs co-written with Peter Wichers (ex-Soilwork). So those are the riffs you're getting. Very catchy stuff!

Ok, thanks. I'll probably pick up whatever version is available in whichever location I happen to find it.

By the way, I agree with your review of the Inflikted disc. It's killer. Max's anguished screams and growls are some of the best evah. :D It's perfect for "that" kind of mood.

Christ... I haven't set foot in that place in years. Has to have been since I graduated high school. I think the last thing I ever did there was take down that monstrous root beer float in five minutes. You know, the one that's basically served in a vase. That was incredibly painful, but all my own damn fault anyway. Never bet the entire table you can do something in X minutes and then tack on an 'If I don't, I'll pay the tab.' Bad, bad decision...but I didn't have to pick up the check!

Draconian - Arcane Rain Fell - $12
Draconian - Where Lovers Mourn - $12
Pharaoh - The Longest Night - $12
Pharaoh - After The Fire - $12
Dan Swano - Moontower - $12 ... I've searched for this for a while now .. real good price here.

Brainstorm - Downburst
Zero Hour - Dark Deceiver
Firewind - Premonition
Lizzy Borden - Appointment With Death
Stonelake - Uncharted Souls

How is this?

Do you buy your CDs online or do you shop at a local store?

I tend to avoid online shopping. The other day I picked up the new Cavalera Conspiracy disc at Best Buy. Had a little trouble finding it there and almost walked out in disgust, but there it was - the only copy there - stashed away in the unmarked miscellaneous "C" section. I'm wondering if I go into BB for the Dane disc if I'll find it under "W" or "D" or somewhere else, if at all. I'm sure Mark probably has it at Metal Haven but I don't want go down there for one disc. Maybe this would be a good time to see if I can finally find the front door to Impulse. :lol: Hopefully they have it there, too. :loco:

Actually we don't have Cavalera Conspiracy ...and I don't know why!!!!! I bought my copy at Rolling Stones, which by the way has its own section for the band. I highly recommend this release and will let Steve the owner know to order it.

True, but I have to save for my wedding in 2009. Pinching pennies counts!

I think the store is about 30 miles from where I live. I'd have to check again whenever I end up making another visit!

I already have the CC disc. Was wondering if you guys had the Warrel Dane disc in stock last Friday but you probably didn't see this thread at the time. I noticed you guys do stock it and I read the write up about its "Goth" influences. :heh:

If I have enough time before you close today I might stop by for it...if it's available, i.e., in stock today.

Thanks!
