My mistake was I'm not too discriminatory when choosing the seller - one I won't be duplicating in the future.

To be honest, this is the only time I've had a problem, so it's still a great success rate - just have to be more careful from whom I purchase.  James mentioned Caiman, I end up ordering from them a lot and they are fantastic - they never screw up and delivery is pretty fast.

I always use the same vendors... usually Caiman.  Of course, Caiman don't stock everything but they do have a lot, even my D&D books!

Plus they're reasonably priced too.

Hello, all. 

Nothing much to say except: Hot Dang.  Am listening to Guapo's 'Black Oni' for the first time.  It's so demonic-sounding that dark clouds have literally just brewed up across the sky.   (I am not kidding.)

This is (under)worlds better than 'Five Suns'.  I'm very impressed.

^^^ Dots it is. I've not purchased it yet (certainly intend to), but was hoping it would be up to the standards of their first effort. I'm banking on pick it up easily over here in Japan. 

First listen through that Scott Brazieal album, I cannot say I'm overly fond. I'll give it another couple of spins before make a more informed decision.

Anyone picked up the new Imahoritsuneyoshidatasuya album? Their '06 album Territory was killer.

For those how don't know them, 'tis a duo between Tatsuya Yoshida and Tsuneo Imahori (tipographica) playing a RIO influenced/improv/noise rock/math rock style.

Oooh, thanks Assaf.  I'll check that out later.
