After reading this, gave that Ghost album a go in the car today. Interesting stuff... not sure what I think of it just yet, but will definitly be giving it another spin.

Hit a couple of local shops this week and came home with the following...

- Agitation Free: 2nd [remaster]
- Amon Düül II: Made In Germany [remaster]
- Beatles: Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Heart's Club Band [remaster]
- Beatles: Abbey Road [remaster]
- Christ On Parade: Sounds Of Nature
- Flower Travellin' Band: Make Up [2010 limited edition reissue]
- Gentle Giant: Three Friends [Japan mini-LP edition]
- Satyricon: Dark Medieval Times

Need to slow down until I figure out the storage situation for my CDs. Getting to become an issue with the wife. If anybody has recommendations for racks/shelves for this kind of thing (large capacity) I'd be interested in hearing 'em.

XD here's what I've been using for years.They take up a small footprint of space and hold a shitload of cds. They spin for easy access to your collection, but can get extremely heavy when they're full. I don't think you'll find something that holds as much in such a small area. I have 5 (the one's that are all black) for my cds, and one in a closet that holds my dvds & blurays (although that one's pretty well packed). They're a bit pricey but worth it.
I've also purchased some vinyl boxes from
Bags Unlimited to keep some overstock cds I don't listen to as much but just can't seem to throw away or sell.

CD TOWER Holds 1060!!!!

Out of curiosity I bought CJSS - Kings of the World. I enjoyed David Chastain's bands back in the 80's but I wish I hadn't let my curiosity get the better of me this time. Nothing special at all on this disc... in fact it sounds like it was made in the 80's which could be a good thing sometimes... but this was extremely boring, predictable, and formulated.

VOIVOD - Angel Rat Sampler (hail E-Bay!)

A friend posted a couple PTH youtube links on his FaceBook music discussion forum and I got hooked. Can't wait to hear the new one.

I'm dying to see and hear the new live MASTODON also. Ordered mine from the band as soon as I heard about it.

Just got:
CROWBAR - Sever the Wicked Hand

However ... AWESOME ALBUM!

MASTODON - Live at the Aragon (cd/dvd) special limited edition with laminated pass, & pick tin with 6 Mastodon guitar picks. Way overpriced at $36.48 (I ordered this the day the band mentioned it of Facebook includes shipping from Warner Bros) considering the cd/dvd is selling for around $12, but it's Mastodon so I'm cool with it.

I'm eagerly waiting for my copy. Having the excellent mail service that we do, it should arrive within the next few months...

I listened to the cd and the vocals on the live Mastodon have a bit to be desired (almost sounding cartoonish at times), and the mix is sorta off. Still need to make time to view the dvd.

I read a few other comments on Facebook about people who are a bit disappointed in it. One person even said Crack The Skye was her favorite album until hearing it live ruined it for her because of the vocals!!! I wouldn't go that far, but I was expecting something a bit better. Maybe my expectations were too high because of how incredible the studio album is.

Hey Dave, belated thanks for the great media storage recommendation! Looking like I will probably start with two of those and see how that works out for us. Really need a storage upgrade for the CDs and this look perfect. Thanks again!

It appears that I have an embarassingly large update... Went to the Seattle Record Show yesterday and brought home a big bag of stuff. In a weird reversal of fates, I noticed an unusually large amount of CDs for sale with low prices ranging from $.50 to $2.50 each, while LP prices are generally up, though still more or less reasable. Stumbled on some awesome finds, as you can see below.

All of these came from the show...

Vinyl LPs
- Dead Brain Cells: s/t debut album [amazing find and in great condiciton!]
- Jade Warrior: Floating World
- Jade Warrior: Waves
- Mercyful Fate: Melissa
- Pink Floyd: More - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack
- Pink Floyd: Obscured by Clouds
- Sir Lord Baltimore: Kingdom Come [original pressing! another great find!]
- Wire: The Ideal Copy

Compact Discs [all these were between $1-$2.50 each]
- Anthrax: Spreading The Disease
- Anthrax: Among The Living
- Black Sabbath: Live Evil [1996 remaster]
- Deep Purple: Deep Purple In Concert 1970~1972 [2001 remaster]
- Destruction: Thrash Anthems
- Dio: The Last In Line
- Gentle Giant: Octopus
- Iommi: The 1996 DEP Sessions (Tony Iommi & Glenn Hughes)
- Iommi: Fused (Tony Iommi & Glenn Hughes)
- Led Zeppelin: Physical Graffiti [remaster. $1 and in good condition!]
- Lynyrd Skynyrd: Pronounced 'leh-'nerd 'skin-'nerd [2001 expanded remster]
- Nile: Amongst The Catacombs Of Nephren-Ka
- Panic: Fact
- Panic: Epidemic
- Sacred Reich: Independent
- Less Than Zero - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack [$1 CD, worth it if only for the Slayer cover of Inna-Gotta-Da-Vida]

Some recent non record show purchases, mail order and local finds, all CDs here...
- Deep Purple: Perfect Strangers [1999 remaster]
- Destruction: Day Of Reckoning
- Magma: Ëmëhntëhtt-Ré
- Night Sun: Mournin'
- Reverend Bizarre: Slave Of Satan [single]
- Karl Sanders: Saurian Exorcisms
- T2: It'll All Work Out In Boomland [2008 expanded remaster]
- UFO: Phenomenon [2007 expanded remaster]

Good to finally own actual copies of the Night Sun and T2 releases as I've been living off of the mp3 versions of these since Greg Gloomp turned me on to both of these albums years ago.

Glad I could help X-D. Those towers get damn heavy when you fill them up so, take my advice, if you ever need to move them make sure you empty them out first. I think I fucked up a couple of mine trying to move them on a hand dolly after shrink wrapping them with all the cds still on the shelves.

GREAT haul of music at incredible prices. I miss record shows.

Recently arriving in the Schroeder collection:
Holy Dio - Tribute to Ronnie James Dio (Fates Warning, Jag Panzer, Angel Dust, Destiny's End, and a bunck of other great bands paying respect to THE MAN)

Pearl Jam - 1993/1995 VS - Vitology remastered deluxed cd set with live at the Orpheum 1994

Queensryche - Empire (20th Anniversary box set edition which includes live show and other extra goodies)

California Guitar Trio - Echoes

The PJ Super Deluxe Box Set for VS/Vitalogy is ONLY available through the bands online shop. I was hoping Amazon might have it and save a few dollars, but that ain't happening this time. It's definitely worth buying, they did a hell of a job on packaging again and all the extras are awesome.

FrameShift - An Absence of Empathy
John Wesley - The Lily Pad Suite
