| New Vinyl
I just got back from Sasquatch (more on that later, obvs) to find the
three records I ordered in the mail. I also picked up a couple while
down in the USA so here's a list! | | 1 |  | Laura Stevenson and The Cans
Sit Resist
$10 for the album of the year on white vinyl? Yes please. | | 2 |  | Manchester Orchestra
Simple Math
Leave it alone. We finished this up like an hour ago. | | 3 |  | The National
Boxer
Yesssssss I've wanted this record for so long and I finally have it! One of
my top 20 albums right here, phenomenal stuff. | | 4 |  | Deerhunter
Halcyon Digest
These guys blew my fucking mind at Sasquatch. I really disliked this band
at first but they've been growing on me. I went and bought this album
after their set and, lucky me, it's more white vinyl! Yay! | | 5 |  | Glassjaw
Everything You Ever Wanted To Know About
hahahahaha ok, so I'm from Canada and we don't have Hot Topic up there.
Well, my friend wanted to stop in a mall right before the US/Canada border
on the way back from Sasquatch to buy some video game shirts. I had no
idea that we were heading into the store where scene-fags get all their
opinions/tastes. I mean, seriously? This place exists? I had to stop myself
from laughing in the employee's faces, literally. They started playing Black
Veil Brides in the store and I nearly lost it. Oh, and their vinyl selection?
hahahahahahahahahaha oh my god. I'm embarrassed to have bought an
album there but I love "Everything You Ever Wanted..." and haven't seen it
anywhere else so oh well. Oh also, it's orange vinyl, I didn't know that at
the time of purchase. Score, I heart coloured vinyl so so so much. Anyway,
back to Hot Topic. hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.
there was this A7X tank-top/short combo you could buy, also lots of Asking
Alexandria swag. Pretty baller if you ask me? I could go on and on about
that place. Man, I really wish they open up a store in BC so I can get my a
regular dose of "so terrible that it's awesome." Good times. | |

06.01.11 | I can't believe Hot Topic is a real place. I didn't even know they pressed shit like Black Veil Brides and The Devil Wears Prada to vinyl. The youth of America is in worth shape than I thought. I mean, this is where they buy their clothes? No wonder they suck. | Aids
06.01.11 | you do have Hot Topic
you don't have Rush
mind a-sploded, get it together USA | Tarnished
06.01.11 | 4 is so good | Ire
06.01.11 | hate u | Polymath
06.01.11 | I enjoyed reading through that list, and 4 is the way to roll man. | Ire
06.01.11 | no
omg can't wait to see the lips | Aids
06.01.11 | The Flaming Lips were amazing live but they fucked around (by they I mean Wayne, obviously) too much. They could have played a few more songs if they didn't spend half their set explaining how one of them got bitten by a spider.
Ire ilu
ilu deep | Ire
06.01.11 | idk what they're gonna do when i see em but it's right by a pool hang out place in the hip part of the strip so it will rule | Aids
06.01.11 | nice. they started with five minutes or so of Wayne in his hamster ball walking on the audience. I'd recommend getting really close if at all possible. | Ire
06.01.11 | sounds
epic. | Aids
06.01.11 | The one I was in had truck loads of shitty synth-core, like 50 copies of "Goblin" (go figure), and the new Defeater album. I feel like such a loser for liking Defeater now haha.
Seriously I saw that album on the wall and I went "ewwwww" inside. I'm trying to stop that from making me like it less but it's really really hard. There were some TERRIBLE albums in that store. | Ire
06.01.11 | theres a small chain of record stores in AZ and Las Vegas called Zia Records
place has so much awesome vinyl omg. | Aids
06.01.11 | holy shit sonictheplumber is having a real conversation with me what is going on
I'm being trolled, aren't I?
aren't I? | Ire
06.01.11 | u have aids so whatevs
yeah zia had so much tallica and typical shit like that but they have all the awesome stuff you usually have to order. i saw o pioneers and some other quoteunquote stuff last time i was there | Ire
06.01.11 | their punk section rules. i saw agent orange, stiff little fingers, descendents, dri and original print misfits | Aids
06.01.11 | good record stores are the best thing ever. I seriously get a boner in a good record store every time. | Ire
06.01.11 | i remember when they had those fucking shitty radiohead singles. it took them like a year and a half to get rid of them.
... i got tricked into buying one. : / | Ire
06.01.11 | i have kid a on vinyl

haha that worked out excellently.
I love Kid A, 3rd favourite album, I have it on two 10" vinyls, bought it in San Francisco
"burn down
burn down hot topic"
oh me! me! I'll do it! | Enotron
06.01.11 | If Hot Topic had some kind of monopoly over music record sales in America, I could understand your problem with them. But it doesn't and it obviously doesn't cater to music fans like you, so almost all of that 5th paragraph is pointless. FYE is usually on the same floor as hot topic and it probably has all the albums on this list.
some of them actually have decent shirts from time to time i have to admit, i got a nice weezer shirt and an eazy e one there as well. | Enotron
06.01.11 | i dunno i mean i understand it's your first time there but it's such an easy/obvious target and has received it's fair share of ripping, better just ignored really | AngelofDeath
06.01.11 | You should make it out to Criminal sometime. They have like every reissue of Husker Du, Minutemen, and Descendents. Great metal selection too. Bought a lot of shit from there. Would like to get 1 at some point. | AngelofDeath
06.01.11 | Whoa, Dino's comin'? |
