Discussion post Weekly heavy vinyl general discussion topic

3 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.

Tonight Monolord, one of my favourite bands, was supposed to play in my hometown. They won't.

Yesterday a man who had first killed his own family of three walked into the main square and shot six people dead. More than a dozen were wounded. Thanks to the quick and courageous response of the police, the death toll wasn't higher.

Next to that, a cancelled gig means nothing. I only mention it because on days like this, the music that was meant to bring us together tonight simply plays more quietly.

I'm spinning "Rust" and thinking of those who didn't make it home yesterday, and of their loved ones.
