LOVE BUZZ or LOVE BOOT?

By Josh | Published 11/17/2010

Time Capsule Comics/Records just had their HUGE yearly sale where vinyl was 50% off, but they still have some gems up on eBay.

I will admit that this one consuses me a little. I know the history of the Love Buzz 7″ and I know that there are few un-numbered ones, but it seems like if this was legit it would be bid up higher by now.

The sellers description says…. This 7″ comes from a large recently acquired collection that’s chock full of rare and nearly impossible to find punk and grunge records. This particular 7″ is Nirvana Love Buzz/Big Cheese on Sub pop, this is an unnumbered version with the #_/1000. 7″ appears to be unplayed and sleeve along shows some general wear. Sub Pop 1988.

Guess we will have to wait and see how high it goes!

what the hell does CEE FOUR mean?

By Josh | Published 11/05/2010

yo_baby_sup has a pretty funny user name and is selling a record that I’ve had for a long time, but not seen that many other copies of.

I got it when I was working at a small record store that my mom & dad owned. Really I just hung out a lot and they paid me a little, but it was awesome! There was a guy that came in all the time with different bootlegs and import vinyl and I would trade with him. When he came in with this Metallica record I knew I needed it just by the album cover!

I got it so long ago that I dont remember the sound quality, but its a double live Metallica LP from a little before the Justice album. The track listing (complete with spelling errors) is…

Fight Fire with Fire
Ride the Lightning
Phantom Lord
Call of Kitulu
No Remorse
Metal Mash (I cant remember what song this actually is)
Seek & Destroy
Whiplash
Creeping Death
Metal Militia

Now obviously I know that the cover art is from the Bones Brigade, but does anyone know what the name of the record, CEE FOUR, means?

The Kids Having Their Say…

Yeah I know its a bootleg and I know that finger_walking isnt really selling anything else of much interest, but I really liked that its called “The Kids Had Their Say”. All though since its a live 7″ shouldnt it be called “The Kids Having Their Say”?

New York City Hate Core!

By Josh | Published 11/02/2010

abanalladhi only has a feedback rating of 2 and is located in Indonesia, but they do have a buch of auctions up and everyone has to start with zero feedback at somepoint so be aware, but possibly take a chance on this live Biohazard bootleg LP.

I dont think I’ve ever seen this record before, but I do like the how silly the cover art is. It looks like its a photocopy of the original self titled LP with the Agnostic Front boots dropped in and a tag line of “New York City Hate Core”. The back of the sleeve says its Live at Hengelo, Netherlands in 1990 and that the LP is a limited edition of 1000.

The opening bid seems a little high to me, but if I was a Biohazard collector I would want this LP so maybe you do too!

Initium…

By Josh | Published 10/30/2010

I know that you’ve all seen a lot of Misfits & Samhain this week and I know I already posted my favorite Samhain LP (November-Coming-Fire) and the Samhain box set, but I still wanted to represent my favorite Samhain cover art, Initium.

I’m 99% sure that this Initium picture disc exc_rec’s has is a bootleg. It doesnt list any label, the colors are kind of weird on it, its from Germany and he says its a ‘numbered copy’. He also has some other records for sale that I’m pretty sure are boots, the thing I found odd was I couldnt even find this picture disc on the Misfits Central discography.

So either way, here is a picture disc version of my favorite Samhain LP cover. If you dont want it, you can buy it and send it to me!

Brooklyn Misfits Factory…

By Josh | Published 10/23/2010

eBay user name wolfsblood718 is actually Mike from the NYHC band Inhuman. Not only is in in Inhuman, but he also owns an awesome comic book shop in NY called the Brooklyn monster Factory that you should check out at www.myspace.com/brooklynmonsterfactory because Mikes a cool guy that really supports the scene!

Anyway, the enconomy sucks so Mike is selling off some stuff including a cool Merauder work shirt & these two Glenn Danzig related bootlegs. Nothing fancy, but you can score them at a good price as you gear up for the full on Misfits/Samhain assault on Halloween!

Warzone and Agnostic Front.

By morgado | Published 10/22/2010

Seller bred2hate has a ton of auctions going, mostly skinhead and oi related, and while I like a some of that stuff, I don’t really know a lot about most of what I see listed. As such, there is really only one thing that jumps out at me:

Up for bids is a used 7″ by Warzone called Lower East Side Crew. Black Vinyl. Test Pressing. Super rare. These were limited to 200, and this is the test press. You probably won’t ever see a test pressing of this again as I think only 3 or 4 were made.

He doesn’t specify, but it should be obvious that this is the test pressing of a bootleg; there are way more of the LES Crew record than 200, and you can easily see that this doesn’t match up to anything on Rev’s pressing info page. Just something to consider if you’re thinking about biting on his high start bid. Meanwhile, monstermind has a similarly generically covered piece of NYHC vinyl up for grabs…

Now this may look just as bootalicious as the previous record, but looks can be deceiving: this one comes with an actual pedigree:

This 7″ was originally released in 1983 only in 1,000 copies which makes this ultra rare. However, this copy is from 1989. It was officially repressed on a limited RED vinyl and white cover. Only 500 copies were pressed. This repress was made to raise some money for their singer Roger who had seriously got hurt at a show. Since he didn’t have health insurance and had to pay the operation himself, these records were pressed to help him out financially.

I think we know which one of these is the better pick up.

Yeah I know its a bootleg…

By Josh | Published 10/19/2010

and its actually a shitty bootleg too. Whats the point of bootlegging a record and not even trying to recreate the sleeve art? Especially a record an iconic as the Project X 7″!

illegalize_it has a a German ‘Fan Club’ version of the Project X 7″ and this one only has 4 songs on it.

The whole thing kind of makes no sense to me.
