Planking is old news at this point. Coning is passe, too. Now it's all about ...stocking?

Holy crapballs. I have been after that album for a decade, but that price is a bit too steep for me. Fortunately, it showing up on the 'Bay prompted me to look around elsewhere and whaddaya know, it's on iTunes.

riceboy!

Archos birthday, happy man!

Sonic Youth - Daydream Nation - 1988 Blast First Enigma release: Sonic Youth - Daydream Nation GDC/Deluxe Edition:x` I posted these before, but they (painfully) illustrate the my point. This is a thread idea I've had for ages. In the age of the brick wall, so many remastered releases sonically inferior to previous releases. Such sins are particularly egregious in the world of classic rock, but the phenomenon plagues nearly every genre. The remaster of Aphex Twin's Selected Ambient Works: 85-92 managed to wreck what was already a very lo-fi endeavor to start. Right now I'm trying to figure out what is the best Led Zeppelin set. I bought the original 4CD boxed set way back in 1990. In fact, it was the first CD purchase I ever made. I never did pickup the following 2CD set that had the remainder of the catalog not on the first set. I have listened to and enjoyed the Led Zep boxed set for two decades now. In that time there have been quite a few remasters that have followed. 10 CD Complete Studio Recordings (1993) 12 CD SHM set (2008) This insane and semi-official 5LP and 3CD set (2010) Discounting that last one, it seems for remasters there's a battle between the 1993 and 2008 sets. I did some digging and as one might expect, a number of audio snobs prefer the original 1980s CD versions. Most of the original CD releases were done by Barry Diament, who is very well respected in the industry and a staunch opponent against the loudness war. So.... any head-casers have experience with either the 10 or 12 CD sets, and maybe had a chance to compare them to the Diament versions?

As others have said,t his new theme is excellent. head-case

Tonight Christina Hendricks stars in Unnecessarily Large GIF Theatre: Porn from the Fore Sale Elsewhere thread.

Here's that music chart I posted before at higher speed: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uPyQqITn0TE "Poor Natalie. She finally had a proud moment in her life. Surrounded by friends. Happening party. That new blouse she bought fits just right. Roderick seems to be into her. Nothing can ruin this night for Natalie."

^^ I just watched that review yesterday. I liked last week's ZP episode much better. It's a shame the PC port of From Dust is utterly wretched and that Ubisoft lied their ass off about the DRM. Fortunately, Sebastian Bastion looks excellent. What's that? The Games thread is over thataway?

WTF, Japan?

Fed up with the poor quality of having their products made in China, American businesses like Sleek Audio are moving production back home.p
