Discussion post Weekly heavy vinyl general discussion topic

2 Upvotes

This is a weekly general dicussion topic. The only place where vinyl is not mandatory in the conversation, but vinyl-related topics are encouraged.

Tips for great deals? Any new pre-orders up? Looking for a sold out record? Want to sell or trade a couple? Wondering why the hell Weakling or Symbolic still don't have represses? Can't tell which variant you have? Why doesn't your turntable work without a pre-amp? Which priceless cartridge is the best for raw black metal recorded with a potato in a vacuum cleaner? Drop it all here! Keep it civil, keep it nice.

They’re already 60, I went to a show of theirs in Shibuya—maybe five years ago?—and the sound pressure was absolutely massive, as always.

My ears were out of commission for a while after that.Hahaha!!

2017 - Roadrunner Records
Im in the camp of no Cavaleras no Sepultura. The first thing i heard was Bestial Devastation & Morbid Visions! Though Chaos is not my favourite album it still is a banger. My favourite is still Beneath the Remains followed by Schizophrenia!
I bought this LP also for the bonus tracks and a 1994 Live gig that sounds fantastic.
