    I celebrated Record Store Day by going to my local record store and buying records.

    Yup.

    Releasing exclusively to vinyl sounds like a terrible idea.

    Do they want to be struggling, or are they just too hip to conform to my ideas of being able to listen to music away from a damn record player.

    i can't remember exactly who it was

    maybe the guy from peste noire?

    but whoever he is he was all "our music isn't meant to played on a computer, maaaan"

    Yea, it was him and no one takes that guy seriously anyways.

    Also, on the topic of vinyl, a lot of death/black metal bands release some pretty cool stuff on vinyl format that you can't get on CD. I mean, it'll be the same album, but it'll have extra songs, extended tracks, or different track listing.

    What I don't get is people buying a vinyl album because of the color of the wax. Like they'll deliberately pay 20 bucks more for vinyl that comes in red than regular black.

    I guess it depends on whether you're buying it as an album or as a collector's item (or both). Some people like the collect "rare" vinyl or what have you.

    What gets me is that there are people out there that actually believe in the bullshit this guy spouts. Remember the goat and crossbow thing he came out with in one of his interviews?

    What really astounds me is that they think it actually means anything to more than 5 people in the world.

    There was a bit in Bloodbath's live Wacken DVD where Akerfeldt says something like "...and we're releasing it on vinyl, because vinyl fucking rules!"
    [no crowd reaction]
    "okay, maybe not"


    ah found it, start of this

    i don't know i guess i'm different but to me buying vinyl is all about understanding the history of music. i'll find something that has great art, or with a producer credit i recognize, or in a genre i'm a bit unsure of but want to get into. and it'll be a gamble usually but generally it'll have some excellent music i never would have even ventured into. and i'll end up reading into prog rock for three hours or listening to a rad funk song called young girls are my weakness

    buying vinyl of a band who has probably has a myspace page and an exclusive itunes track kind of doesn't make sense to me.

    Yeah I found a whole bunch of cool stuff on vinyl for basically no money. I have a really weird Hendrix album, I got Tommy by the Who for about £3, a UK Subs album (with an extra live album included) for £1.50, and a whole bunch of other things. I miss that record shop
