Blame Ben Clymer.

The Beta Band -- Three EPs

I go back and forth and have nearly sold it a couple times. Lack of a quick set date is a bit of a pain, but it wears well and always makes me happy when I do get it out. Mine started off with a black bezel and the previous owner added the Coke insert. I've been meaning to go find a NOS Pepsi insert as well. In the end I think the perfect three Rolex collection for me would be a no-date ceramic Sub, 16710 Pepsi GMT II (prefer the brushed center links) and white-dial Daytona.

Dew eet.

Ultravox -- Vienna

Giga-ty!

Patrick Watson -- Love Songs For Robots Very worthwhile.

Yes please.

Coke day.

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds -- Kicking Against The Pricks

California Nights -- Best Coast

Happy birthday! More pars fewer bogies!

The Chemical Brothers -- Dig Your Own Hole

Can -- Tago Mago

Bought an Oppo 105 when I set up the TV room last year. Truth -- I've never even turned it on. The only discs we have in the house are a couple of bundled Xbox One games.

The Cure -- Faith

Oppo does not fuck around.

RIP Mr. King.

The Cure -- Seventeen Seconds

Good night Al. Quite a run there. Your ears must be tired, but happy.

Buddha Bar -- Best Of

Gorillaz -- Demon Days

I think it's one of the best and most honest treatments of male mid-life malaise extant. And tuneful with it.
