Project X test pressing

By Dave | Published 10/04/2011

Once, a long long time ago, I used to have a Judge test pressing. Not just any Judge test pressing but the NY Crew 7″ Schism test. However I’m an idiot and sold it. Actually Robby Redcheeks had bought it off me before and he sold it but in an odd deal him and I had worked out he had to give me half the money from him selling it. That record now resides somewhere in Germany (sorry Jbil).
This is not as cool as a Schism test. Not even close. But it is a Project X test pressing being sold by incorrectthoughts and that is still pretty cool.

How did Chain sell 2500 records in the UK?

By Dave | Published 08/25/2011

Looking to fill that gap in your Chain collection? 10 other versions to collect not enough for you? Let seller big_earz help you out. The blue vinyl of Chain’s 2nd 7″ on First Strike Records from the UK is also a good place to start out if you just got into collecting Chain records. Besides the 1st press on Foundation, its the most common of all the pressings of What Holds Us Apart.
Dont lie to yourself, you need it.

Get It Quick!

While some people love this Pushead cover I never really cared for it. Compared to the cover of The Kids Will Have Their Say its really nothing much to look at. I feel like Pushead phoned this one in much like the cover of St Anger. The reverse holds true of the vinyl though. One of the best pieces of Boston sXe ever layed to vinyl. Seller vinyljunkie1620 is offering a copy thats in great shape at a still affordable price, though its ending pretty soon. If you for some reason are an edgeman without this record you need to do yourself a favor and pick this up, and its a copy still in its home state. Buy local.

The lyric sheet is cool as fuck though!

Vaccine XXX

By cooch | Published 04/13/2011

Some newer grip-n-flip type stuff up this week from god_among_men_77, including a complete “rares” collection of western Mass’ Vaccine.

If you’ve been living under a rock and haven’t heard these guys yet, imagine the sentiments of the first SSD lp mixed with the sound and intensity of the Crossed Out 7″ and you’re off to a decent start. Here you get: demo 7″ on clear ltd/100, Human Hatred 7″ on red ltd/200 and the recent Crimes In Blood 5″ on gray ltd/200. XXX

Lots more lots

By cooch | Published 03/27/2011

deepfocus88 (who, iirc, was in Wide Awake) has several nice lots up, and here are a couple of highlights…

Oddly, there’s also a Token Entry Jaybird LP in here, but he chose not to include a photo. Oh well. 5-for-5 on this one, all classics.

Here’s a great little youth crew/sxe instant collection starter. Not 100% killer like the top lot — couple of my favorite records ever in here (BDTW and Trial) and a couple of stinkers (I won’t mention names since the last time I did I got verbally assaulted by the guitar player).

Teen Idles BIN

By cooch | Published 03/14/2011

Lotsa BIN auctions up right now from deface43. Starting prices are kinda high, but this one seems reasonable to me.

First press Teen Idles here with the original heavy stock cover, these things are IMPOSSIBLE to find in clean shape since the covers scuff real easy (similar to AF 7″ or 2nd press In My Eyes 7″). This one is definitely one of the better copies I’ve ever seen, and the price has been climbing steadily, so that BIN button is awfully tempting.

More from the Dischord vaults

By cooch | Published 12/10/2010

Jeff Nelson returns with more form the Dischord archives, and if this is anything like the last copies of these records he sold, expect them to hit monumental prices.

I like the threat to sue the rubber cement company in the In My Eyes auction :)

Out of Step x2

By cooch | Published 11/30/2010

More torpedo bonzers from Jeff Nelson aka hommedegomme.

Admittedly, this test is nowhere near as cool looking as the second press/screened sheep cover Out Of Step, but this first press version is slightly different musically (which Jeff explains in detail in the listing). Also I always wondered why the back cover of the first press ended up being all black, which he somewhat explains in the listing for the regular copy.

For the baller status collector:
