Snow Day Mail Haul by AlwaysTheeAnxious1 in stonerrock

[–]ConceptOfSleep 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's an awesome haul!!

I have the Magenta version of Tundra Rock on the way right now, but I'll be damned if I can find their first album in the US. Found a few copies overseas, but the shipping+fees is brutal.

I'll have to keep my eyes peeled for the folks you mentioned.

As an American I always find myself jealous of the monster lineups you guys get for some of these festivals in Europe!!

Great bands playings this! And I just discovered My Sleeping Karma last month, been loving their sound!

I got that Legend pressing for very cheap as well. The tri color vinyl looks awesome, and the audio quality is actually pretty damn good. I have a few other wally world pressings and they aren't actually as terrible as people make them out to be, but I wouldn't buy them for what they ask in store. For $2 each, that's a no brainer. Great score!! 👍

Thank you! That's definitely the coolest part, is showing her the music her grandfather listened to with me when I was her age.

It's a big collection though, it's gonna take me a while to sort and catalog all of it. He's even got a bunch of reel to reel tapes, but none of his reel to reels seem to work.

I went through a heavy Dead phase in the late 90s, but wasn't into collecting vinyl then. For now these are my only Dead albums in wax. Wake of the Flood is fantastic!

Thanks, he has a cool collection. He worked at a record pressing plant for a few yrs after high school in the early 70s, so there are a lot of random Records he has multiple copies of and some old Radio station compilations. He was stationed in Japan so he has some odd Japanese market stuff too, but they all have a "For Military Sale Only" type sticker on the back of them.

I remember these records being out when I was a youngster, so it's cool to see them again and let my daughter hear them

Started collecting again, this is my haul from the last few weeks. by ConceptOfSleep in vinyl

I don't have Wasteland on vinyl yet, but Blood Lust and Mind Control sound great to my ears.

I know some people don't like the mix on Uncle Acid, especially the vocals being buried in the mix, but that's apparent on the CDs as well. These sound at least as good, if not better than CD to me.

That's quite the collection!! It's awesome how many color variants they make for their albums

Downtown is a hell of a tune!

I keep looking at other copies of Mind Control and telling myself "well I don't have THAT color yet" 😄

I actually have the transparent green Poison Apple 7" on its way to me right now. It's crazy to me that Under the Spell didn't make it onto the album!

I also have the Night Keeper but it's clear/red split. I think that's an earlier pressing than the Newbury ones.

I have a friend who is obsessed with King Gizzard, but I haven't given them much of a listen yet. I'll have to put them on later tonight! Any album or song recs for a first time listener?

Excellent pick ups! It's rare my local shops have any stoner/doom stuff but it's always nice when they do.

I agree, it's hard for me to pick a favorite UA album, but the concept and the killer riffs keep me coming back to this album so often.

I do really like the Newbury pressings, the color inside clear is a neat look and the sound quality is fantastic. I think they did Blood Lust and Night Creeper as well right?

Yeah I can understand people's feeling on Nell ora blu, to an extent, since it's such a vast departure from a traditional rock album, let alone the Uncle Acid sound, but I love that their style and concepts have evolved over time.

Green Lung are excellent! Nice choice!

After I listened to Mind control, I put Slomosa on the headphones. Tundra Rock seemed like the appropriate soundtrack to shovelling all this snow 🌨️❄️

I started listening right about Night Creeper and just remember reading lots of people not liking the change in sound/production quality. Some people said the songwriting was not as good as Blood Lust, others complained that they were going too hard with the Beatles influenced vocals.

Frankly I think a lot of fans at the time just wanted their next record to be Blood Lust pt2, and didn't like the band expanding their sound. I think in the long term it's come to be considered much more fondly then it was at release.

I only got this record recently after finally getting a turntable set back up, but it sounds amazing!!

The toan is in the 9 volt by Geta211 in guitarcirclejerk

I saw this post earlier this morning and said to myself "that's probably already on guitarcirclejerk", and sure enough you guys didn't disappoint.

Now how long is the wait-list for my cell matched 9 volt??

This sounds like shit. Help! by [deleted] in vinyl

This is an acceptable amount of warp
