I never thought about discussing the albums I bought but it sounds cool, and I'll start with my next pickups. If people want to talk about their favorite music or why they bought an album go for it.

GoAztecs: I actually bought some albums I was on the fence about after reading through your list. So I'm sure it could be a hotbed of discussion.

Going back a bit, I've listened to Band of Skulls-Sweet Sour today, and Handsome Boy Modeling school in the car. Really enjoying both. Band of Skulls surprised me because I didn't care much for the title track (the only song I new from the album).

Reserved. (but will prob never use)

There is a thread discussion about "Last CD you Purchased" or something in case you want to have a conversation there or not, it doesnt matter to me.

Thanks Arakias. Found it: http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/showthread.php?t=63357

Thanks for the heads up Arakias, it's interesting to see what people are buying over there. I like how there is a wide range of different genres on this thread and the other thread and we all could find something new to listen to and enjoy.

Commandercody83: Very cool that you found something you like from my list. I like to read what people's thoughts are about what they just bought and are currently listening to.

I just tried out buying an album from Google Play because they are having a promotion of a different album a day for .25 cents. Thought this was a cool feature to get people to use Google Music. The album is sent to your Google Music account and you are able to download the album from there.

Very cool. I have a friend who wanted to buy one of the albums but didn't want to use Google. Thanks for the info!

Slow month of music in my house. Been itching to buy some albums lately...

lol maaaan I've boughten so many CDs since the year started, im scared to tally the costs up xD

[quote name='commandercody83']Slow month of music in my house. Been itching to buy some albums lately...[/QUOTE]

Same here. I haven't spent any time at the local thrifts for new vinyl. Hoping to change that this weekend.

[quote name='refusedchaos']lol maaaan I've boughten so many CDs since the year started, im scared to tally the costs up xD[/QUOTE]

I hear ya, game buying list, and this one gets pretty scary towards the end of the year

Has anyone had trouble finding physical copies of newer/less known stuff lately? With fewer places to pick from I'm going to be forced to buy more digital/online stuff.

Last week it was Lost in the Trees that was only available through Bestbuy.com. Which BB is the worst offender to not have it in release week only for it to show up weeks later at $9.99 everyday price. Frustrating.

I also have a few places that can order it for me for $15 and higher. Really puts a damper on my day.

Been scoping eBay though. Lots of promise. Have a reissue of Radiohead - OK Computer that was an accidental rebuy that should show up any day now. Oops.

I will update my post later, but my most recent CD purchases were:

FYE:
Five Finger Death Punch - American Capitalist Collector's Edition - $17.99
Foster the People - Torches - $9.99
Rock the Holidays Sampler = Free
Chevelle - Hats Off To The BUll - $9.99
Disturbed - The Lost Children = $9.99

Salvation Army
Senses Fail - Let It Enfold You - $1.99

I have a bunch more, but I can't think of them right now.

I think my local Goodwill stores are sending their CDs to the main office to sell on their Amazon site. I get that they are trying to make more cash but at the same time it screws people like me who like to visit their stores to find random new music (and it looks like games are starting to be sold online too). I'm starting to wonder how much longer they will be selling vinyl in stores before they start sending that to their Amazon store as well.

I'm not really a fan of digital versions but it looks like that might be my only other option along with the local mom & pop and online retailers.

^I haven't been to a Goodwill in a while. We do have some thrift stores that carry CDs, but the selection/shape of things isn't great.

The one great find I'd had at our Salvation Army was ruined when they couldn't find the disc in their "filing system." Vangelis - Themes @ $3 would have been awesome.

I hate it when some stores do that with discs, but it's either that or finding empty cases. I need to start checking out flea markets. Kinda funny considering when I go I always look for games/toys but never thought about music

Thank god for the Tax Day sale at Google Music. Otherwise April is looking as pathetic as March.

Anyone doing Record Store Day this weekend?

[quote name='commandercody83']Thank god for the Tax Day sale at Google Music. Otherwise April is looking as pathetic as March.

I never heard of Record Store Day but after looking it up and finding out my local spot is participating, I want to check it out. Only problem is that I'm doing some home improvement stuff this weekend but hopefully I can take a couple of minutes to check it out

Sometimes there will be good stuff but it's kinda YMMV. Our small store doesn't get much usually but have had some quality items that survived the weekend rush of buying.

Only thing I'm looking for is the Gorillaz/James Murphy/Andre 3k "Do Ya Thing" release if the artwork is cool. Beyond that I didn't see any good exclusive CDs on the list.

I missed out on it, but talked to a couple of people and they said the selection wasn't too great. I still think it would have been cool just to be part of something like that but I guess I'll have to wait until next year

In no specific order since I have no idea what I have purchased when, and everything is in CD format:

David Bowie - The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust
Grendel - Timewave Zero (2 disc)
mind.in.a.box - Revelations
mind.in.a.box - Revelations (club.remixes)
Various Artists - The Devils Carnival
The Protomen - Whatever the name of their Queen cover album is

Jack White Blunderbuss $9.99
Yeah Yeah Yeahs Show Your Bones $9.99

Record Store Day didn't net anything awesome for me. The Gorillaz album I mentioned was a regional thing.

Had an awesome coupon at V-Stock (buy one get one $19.99). Wish I got these more often.

On track to buy more this month than any other! Finding so much stuff after the drought.... But....

I'm choosing not to include my vinyl score from a yard sale today: 75 albums for $10.

We are keeping more than 60 of them after going through them tonight. Noticed on the box they said $1 each. Had a mix of country, jazz, pop, comedy, and rock.

Extremely pleased.

Can you tell me what rock/metal vinyls in the lot were?

[quote name='The Lord of Awesome']Can you tell me what rock/metal vinyls in the lot were?[/QUOTE]

Flipped through the box today, here is what I remember (rock/metal was a small section):
Doors - Strange Days
Iron Butterfly - In-a-gadda-da-vida
Strawberry Alarmclock - Incense and Peppermints
Switched on Bach
Vaughn Meader The First Family
Big Chill Soundtrack
Saturday Night Fever Soundtrack
Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass
Peaches and Herb
Bill Cosby
George Carlin (7 words album)

Some real classic stuff in there. Was staying at my parents so that was the entertainment for the evening: pulling out record after record to my parents delight remembering the songs.

I wish the last collection I bought was in this good of shape. It had lots of metal including Black Sabbath, ACDC, Judas Priest, Led Zepplin, Rush, and a ton (110 albums for $13). Sucky part was the sleeves are all in rough to good shape. Records themselves were just a little dirty.

Know how you feel. I got some imported AC/DC albums and the covers were absolutely horrible.

Got the new Sonata Arctica and Firewind albums pre ordered. Comes with a shirt for both of em so that's awesome. This month is a awesome music month.

A friend turned me on to Discogs so I'm using it to catalog my record collection. You can view it here: http://www.discogs.com/collection?user=skeletorspimpcane

I've only finished the small box I recently purchased along with a few others I had lying around or recently purchased. Still have about 100 more to go. I'd also like to do my CD collection at some poin, but it's kinda tedious.

[quote name='commandercody83']A friend turned me on to Discogs so I'm using it to catalog my record collection.[/QUOTE]

Heh, I've been meaning to do that for a while, but it's a seriously daunting task, so I keep putting it off (much like I keep putting off the reorganization that my collection also badly needs). I used to keep an Access database(!) of my collection, but I lost track of it several years ago and now it's way out of date.

One thing I like about Discogs is that you can usually search on the UPC (assuming that whoever entered the info included it), which is a lot quicker for finding a specific version of a CD than trying to drill down through a list. But I have already, in the few that I have tried to enter, encountered a couple of titles that weren't on the site at all. When you have to create a whole new entry, it becomes time consuming fast.

I like getting Google Music updates about what albums are $3.99 this week... Only to find out I have most of them! But this week is different because M83 - Hurry Up We're Dreaming is on there so I may break down and buy it.

Also, I have to admit I'm addicted to Spotify. I've been using the 30 day trial to the fullest by checking out a buch of artist I've been wanting to hear. Not sure I'll pay for it when the time comes since I still buy a bunch of physical media...
