Perfect, thanks.

Just spent $1300 upgrading my vinyl gear. Its only taken me about a year of research and saving...

CANT. FUCKING. WAIT.

 

[Psychonaut]

Seconded on Blood Music. Great attention to detail and communications. Those Star One vinyls are going to be gorgeous. Their stuff is well worth the money.

Finally got my last Baroness vinyl ordered. Needed Red Album on colored vinyl. Once I get it I'll have

Red Album on white and pink swirl
Blue Record on coke bottle blue splatter
Yellow and Green on one yellow and one green disk
First & Second on purple vinyl

Relapse just put out every single Nasum full length on wax. I guess the pre-order starts in January, so im stoked on that cause I was about to buy every single one, right now.

Their color scheme is a bit weak...Especially because they arent different between the 4 albums...Whatever. Still buying each one when they come out. Been wanting this for years.

EDIT:
God damnit. You can only pre-order the bundle right now...All the records the same color...for $70+...Cant make up my mind and I gotta leave for a show in LA right now

Just got confirmation this arrived and is waiting for my setup and enjoyment.

Stay tuned for some sexy photos.

Music Hall 2.2S (Limited turntable on Black Ash Wood)
- Upgraded Acrylic Platter (looks amazing, dont need a slip mat and helps improve sound and cut vibrations)
- Went with their cartridge, Music Hall Tracker, and gonna see how I feel about it. I still have my Shure m97xe to swap out if I feel I dont like this one.

Audioengine 5+ Bamboo Powered Speakers
These fuckers pack a punch. Already can tell a difference in their sound only after about 5 hours of playing. Cant wait to hear them when they are fully broken in.

The clarity of this setup is ridiculous. Going from a $20 turntable I got from K-Mart, to a Technics I barely used cause it was finicky and broken, to a $650 entry Audiophile turntable is insane.

Still have more gear to buy, which will probably take me another year to save, but, atleast now I can enjoy my wax in fucking incredible clarity and sound.

Relapse and riding easy records already have some decent sales goin down.

Any other distros?

 

[Krow]

Im pretty underwhelmed by the sales ive seen so far.

 

[Carpe Mortem]

Picked up Uriah Heep's Demons & Wizards, Robin Trower's Bridge of Sighs, Iron Butterfly's In a Gadda Da Vida, and random baroque stuff today. Eventually I'll splurge on new records by bands I really love, because I have yet to see any used Candlemass for instance despite their popularity. But three records for 30 is better than one.

The two stores I go to are pretty cleaned out of most metal stuff, hard to even get some Black Sabbath.

Just saw that band again last night.

They do absolutely nothing for me.

Sick wax, though dude.

Picked up Borknagar's "Olden Domain" in gatefold on 180 gram vinyl. Came with a poster of the album cover too. I also got the new Wolves in the Throne Room on 2LP clear vinyl. I know it's an ambient album, but I dig it pretty hard; especially when spinning the vinyl.

One of the best birthday presents ever given to me.

5 picture discs of my favorite live recording. So much fucking win.

 

[Psychonaut]

Picked up one of these:

Picture is misleading. It's 12 records in the set, not 6.

And this in triple red vinyl:

And this on red glow in the dark vinyl:

One of these in blue:

And some various non-metal things like the new Pink Floyd, Tom Petty, and a few vinyls from Gravenhurst.

 

[KafkaX]

Where did you pick up the new Pink Floyd?!?

Didnt even know it was available on wax! Awesome!

 

[KafkaX]

Picked these up over the weekend

This thread has been pretty dead lately. Kinda weak. I know you fuckers have gotten some new shit, post about it!

Just picked up a God Luck & Good Speed reissue from Season of Mist. Only $23 shipped. Pretty stoked on that.
