The Official Metal/Hardcore Thread

[Susie]

I think Moog meant that the store itself had 100 copies, they couldn't make #11 on the Billboard 200 if they only produced 100 copies of the album.

 

You saw Oceanic in a store? You should pick that up before it disappears, it's not exactly an easy album to come by these days, at least at retail outlets.

Yeah I'm thinking that they just arrived at the store, I saw at least 6 or 7 stacks of the same CD

 

I wish I could buy Oceanic but I don't have any money and all of my Christmas presents have been picked out already

I think that I still have a chance since Isis aren't really that well mentioned, at least down here in Canada

 

I just hate it when I have to play luck to get a CD, I did that with a Squarepusher album and I never saw it again until my visit to the store today

Oceanic is one of their harder ones to find, I hope it doesn't disappear on you. I had to get mine on amazon.

Damn, I never knew that since I've only known Isis since last week

Amazon isn't really a solution for me since I can't really order anything online

14 year olds can't get credit cards

So my only solution, since I hate digital copies, is to go to stores and buy them from there

But if you were to look at the metal section in the store that I go to, it basically looks like a wall of CDs scattered everywhere, maybe it might get hidden because of that

Glad you're getting started on the good stuff early. Sucks that your store doesn't take better care of the metal section though. I'm with you on disliking buying music through digital means, I'm pretty sure I posted a picture of my shelf haha.

[✪RION]

If Oceanic is available in your store, chances are there might be Panopticon there as well..just maybe though. I got both in the same store and it's hard to find one without the other here but Coral's right, Isis' stuff is hard to find.

Yeah I noticed that there was 4 or 5 Isis albums there

Each were a copy of a different one Panopticon was one of them

They kinda do take care of it, but it kinda looks disorganized

There's three walls that each are ordered alphabetically

But only for what's on each shelf

Some of the CDs are facing sideways others are facing forward

Then there's the stacks beneath the walls

 

And I've been listening to Hardcore since my mom played Metallica, System of a down, P.O.D. and others in the car for me when I was 2-4 years old

She never played what was on the radio for me

 

Yeah you did post up the picture of your collection

It was quite tidy looking

[Ｍｒ．Ｒｏｂｏｔ]

Holy macaroni, if it's here in New York those Isis album would be long gone and same goes to any Deftones album especially if it's new unless you go to hot topic. Seems like hot topic goers aren't a fan of Deftones and I wonder why? lol

 

@Moog, sounds like the employees of that store you went to are just lazy. Same case with few of the store I went to before I found out about DIY stores. Anyway, your mom sounds awesome. I had a pretty similar childhood cept that it's my brother and instead of metal bands it's emo stuff. Not the mislabeled alternative/pop punk with long hair stuff.

[Susie]

The Deftones albums probably just arrived there, since this is Canada we get everything late

And to my knowledge I'm the only Canadian metal head who knows of Isis' existance

 

Also CDs aren't popular everyone seems to like torrents better

There is usually only a couple of people in the store, and I was the only one standing in front of the metal section.

Shsss, let's keep that first part a secret. We don't want another meme based on nationality do we? Anyway, while I get money as an issue, I never really use torrents aside from getting albums that are impossible to find. Mostly skramz album but I use Mediafire.

 

Nothing can ever beat the feeling of holding an album casing while listening to it. Every time I do that I got the POWAAH!

Totally agree, I don't ever really feel like I have an album until I get a hard copy.

 

Think these are my most impressive albums that I've gotten my hands on:

 

maudlin of the well - Leaving Your Body Map, Orchid - Self-titled (commonly known as Gatefold), Underoath - Act of Depression, Underoath - Cries of the Past

 

[spoiler=Said CDs]

 

[Ｍｒ．Ｒｏｂｏｔ]

My most impressive album that I own would probably be Moss Icon's Lyburnum.

 

[spoiler=THE One.]

 

 

And props for getting Cries Of The Past. It's one of the most hardest Underoath's album to find. Also Orchid. Awesome.

Yea, the prices for that and Act of Depression on amazon.com are ungodly, I had to get them on ebay and I fought for them haha. Never heard of Moss Icon until just now.

 

I also just ordered the Dance Tonight! Revolution Tomorrow! / Chaos Is Me compilation because finding them individually is nigh impossible.

[Susie]

Oh jeez I don't think that I have any hard to find albums at least from my knowledge

 

Though my most favorite CDs that I own are:

Dream Theater - Black Clouds & Silver Linings

Daft Punk - Discovery

Tool - Lateralus (Even though I lost it XD)

Radiohead - Kid A

Yeah I don't have that much Metal in my collection

Though I do plan on getting more

 

The albums that I wanna get but are hard to find are:

Isis - Oceanic

Squarepusher - Ufalbum

Any Aphex Twin ones (I saw the Windowlicker EP go up for 140$ on ebay, it was a different edition though)

 

But anyways slap my wrist for not mentioning that much metal music

I'm only starting to gain back my liking for it after I ditched Metal and became obsessed with EDM songs.

I got both album. Stumble upon them randomly in a house by Circle Takes The Square.

You own Kid A so your sins are forgiven. Haha

In a house? I'm confused haha. Anyway, I would've flipped out if I found them somewhere.

Do you have the version of Kid A with the hidden booklet? It should be behind the disc tray.

[Ｍｒ．Ｒｏｂｏｔ]

House is a term use by the folks down at Long Island for shows that are held in small neighborhood venue like i.e -Small stadium or community center. Local talents and some emo bands usually play in these type of venues and that's where I usually found some really, really rare albums.

[Dismal Euphony]

Speaking of Panopticon, the black metal Panopticon is basically all I've been listening to lately. Their album Social Disservices is absolutely incredible.

I've heard really good things about this band, I'll check them out when I have time to listen to a 20-minute song~

[Dismal Euphony]

Their songs are a bit lengthy, that one in particular, but it's 100% worth it. One of the most talented one-man projects I've heard in a long time.

Unfortunately after looking through my entire apartment it seems as if I lost the CD

Or I possibly gave it back to my dad

 

But yeah I never bothered checking because I didn't know that there was a version that had a hidden booklet

I'll be looking around for it though.

Yea, it's on earlier printings, you have to pop out the disc tray and take out the back part. It has some creepy drawings and lyrics that appear on their next two albums. Mine's a later printing so it's not there.

I have the early released version. My cousin lend it to me but he never claim it back. The booklet contained references about UK's politics.

 

Anyway, it's christmas man! In a week that is.

[Susie]

Damn that Helstar stuff actually isn't that bad

Suicidal Nightmare was actually a pretty darn cool song

But if were talking about classic metal

I prefer to stay around the Metallica and Slayer era
