| Discuss Vinyl Finds
I'll discuss the stories behind finding these five records, let me know some of yours. | 1 | | Black Flag Nervous Breakdown
I was looking around for this EP ever since I started collecting vinyl, and I somehow found it only last week. I was skimming through the 45 section of my record store, even though I never really buy anything from it, and this came up. Not sure if it's OP or not, but I got it for only $5.99 and it sounds great. | 2 | | Big Black Racer-X
I was always looking for anything by Big Black on physical format at my record store(s) since I felt bad for listening to Steve's stuff without paying. One day though, I looked through the punk section at my local Bull Moose and this, as well as Bulldozer, came up for about $12 each. I didn't have enough at that moment, so I had to hope they would be there next week, and they were. | 3 | | Godspeed You! Black Emperor F#A# (Infinity)
Decided after reading lots of hype about this band on sputnik, I needed to check this LP out. Interestingly, I got the OP for $15, with the crushed penny, glued picture, lock groove, and everything. | 4 | | Yes Close to the Edge
I went out to dinner with my family in Portland, which in Maine, has tons of indie record stores. Since we couldn't get to the one I wanted to though, we were leaving our restaurant to go to our car, and we walked by a record store. It had this, Close to the Edge, Surrealistic Pillow, and London Calling. All in great condition. | 5 | | Sir Lord Baltimore Kingdom Come
I was reading about this band a little bit, since they were kind of considered the godfathers of stoner rock. Luckily, I was going to a record store the week after, and I had them in the back of my mind, and this actually came up in good condition. | |

06.15.14 | Going back to the list game a bit. Discuss the wax | Ryus
06.15.14 | just yesterday got tomorrow's harvest as a gift on vinyl! | SCREAM!
06.15.14 | the repress of 3 comes with all that stuff as well. You might have an OP but for 15$ I'd be pretty surprised :P | BMDrummer
06.15.14 | Yeah, but it looked rather old so I don't know | emester
06.15.14 | Got ops of MA,YH, Houses of the Holy, Fragile and A Farewell To Kings.
Bought an op of Machine Head on friday in the record store for 15 bucks. Sleeve was in shit condition but the vinyl itself was
practically mint not even a scratch on it | BMDrummer
06.15.14 | Lucky on MA, all Opeth vinyl I find is $50. | emester
06.15.14 | I don't know if its op or not but my cousin gave me his copy of haunting the chapel | ZombicidalMan
06.15.14 | Probably my rarest is *shels Plains of The Purple Buffalo OP on clear purple wax. Favourite finds are Amplifier Worship and Absolutego by Boris, a black and orange repress of Isis' Panopticon, and yellow Pink Lady Lemonade You're From Inner Space (Acid Mothers Temple) | Calc
06.15.14 | I saw 'Allelujah! Don't Bend! Ascend! at the store the very first time I went out to buy vinyl. It was like 30 bucks or something and I thought to myself "I'm probably not going to see this again unless it's online or something." I picked it up and walked around the store with it and then I realized "I hate this band, why the fuck would I buy a vinyl of their's just to have it?" and I promptly put it back.
That would've been a slippery slope if I went through with that buy as I had a lot of money and prolly would've bought a lot of dumb shit because it was something rare or something one must have instead of because I like the band. | BMDrummer
06.15.14 | Yeah, that's usually the most expensive GYBE record for me as well, but still haven't even heard it yet. | ZombicidalMan
06.15.14 | its good. I don't have it on vinyl yet but if you like godspeed it's worth a listen at the very least. better than yanqui anyways | Mort.
06.15.14 | just set up my record player today! jammed Atdi - Relationship of command and Converge - Awlwlb.
| emester

06.15.14 | Haven't heard that Converge yet, but currently digging through their discography quite a bit. | emester
06.15.14 | never enjoyed converge tbqh. probs cuz I aint a fan of punk or that I'm very picky with my hardcore | BMDrummer
06.15.14 | I hated them the first time I heard them tbh, but they grew over time. | ConcubinaryCode

Finally finding a decent-quality copy of Modus Operandi after two years of searching for it, has to be my biggest find so far. | emester
06.15.14 | Gave jane doe maybe 7 listens and it still sounds like average hardcore with baby mario screaming his fucking lungs out :/ | BMDrummer
06.15.14 | Maybe it's just not for you, it certainly isn't for everyone. | emester
