Some Records

OFF! - Four EPs

I picked this up at Rebellion Fest in Blackpool after they played (they were fucking ace). Unfortunately, when I actually opened it and took it out of the packaging there were duplicate EPs. I've been trying to get a hold of someone to sort out a replacement for about a month now, frustrating.

Nancy Sinatra & Lee Hazelwood

Found this at a market stall in my city centre for £5 I think. I really love the dreamy psychedelic qualities of the Nancy/Lee songs and they sound all the better on vinyl.

Fugazi - Fugazi EP

Picked this up at the same stall for £8. It's one of my favourite punk EPs of all time (along with the Nervous Breakdown EP, Discharge's first, Multi Death Corporations etc.) and what an iconic cover. Pretty sure it's an original, no idea how many made it over the pond.

Frank Turner - England Keep My Bones (green vinyl)

This is Frank's latest album. It came with a CD too, rather than just a download slip which was nice. I've been a big fan of his for a few years, caught him live 5 times now (recommended, his shows are some of the best I've ever seen).

Independent Record Store Day 2011

This year's record store day saw a load of tasty releases from great bands, and brought well-received punters into our independent shops. I managed to pick up a Rekords Rekords 10" with one track each from Queens of the Stone Age, Alain Johannes, Desert Sessions 7&8 and Mini Mansions. I considered buying Kings of Leon's reissue of the Holy Roller Novocaine EP, but £19 seemed a little too much to spend on vinyl in one day.
