It sounds beautiful in vinyl quality.

Code666 says the shirt will be released some time before the end of the month so not too much longer yet!!!

If you truly want a shirt of mine very badly though you can buy one with my logo on it. Just PM and tell me what size you need. They're $23 each... and a big majority of it will be "donated" to post.

I've only just heard one song off Jane Doe and holy freaking sh*t, it rules already.

You wanna know something weird... I'm still having trouble getting into Mono

I'm sad to admit that i'm not too familiar with vinyl, but i've been reading alot lately about the the more "true" sound that a vinyl record can produce. Do you think the difference in quality is really substantial enough to shell out the cash for a vinyl record player?

It really depends what album you are talking about. Something really fine tuned FOR CD like Porcupine Tree? No. Anything made before 1990? YES!!! The quality difference in older albums is absolutely immense.

well, just checked my recent lastfm data - almost no Post-Rock at all I listen to MINSK a lot, though. Amazing band, and utterly underrated.

Wait, I'm a liar I listened to:

General Lee - very good french atmospheric Post-Metal, reminding me of best CoL days. 45 mins, 6 tracks - neither too long nor too short recommended.
A Storm Of Light/Nadja - really good split/collaboration work. I even liked SoL more than Baker's stuff this time. I even dare to say, that these two SoL songs are better than their 2008 debut!
Fall Time - fine Post-metal from 2002, and as for 2002 it sounds revolutionary. Counting this - recommended!
From Monument To Masses - On Little Known Frequencies - nice as usual. Melikey
Our Ceasing Voice - 2009 - Steadied Stars In The Morphium Sky [EP] - very MONOish release, but still enjoyable. A good clone is better than...than a bad one, ok)))

I'd say get out of my thread, but then I realized this isn't purely a metal thread, it's only 1/3 metal, the other thirds are post rock and math rock, damn it:P

maudlin of the Well/Kayo dot has descended upon me as if an angel on high. I am elated and in euphoria.

I love Standards, it's the album that got me into them

I got a legit copy of Standards a long time ago, but never gave it any serious listening cause it was not too interesting. I'll be sure to listen to it tonight.
