Are Recoreds Dead?

[Bladeso]

I hope that matt might be able to see this poll if there is enough response for yes

[penismightier]

i would only because i collect stuff like this.

[Scot]

What are recoreds?

[S.E. Hardy]

WLR&RR was *made* for vinyl.

[Devil On Rollerskates]

A WLRRR vinyl would be awesome.

[Akarik]

I might....It would depend on how expensive it was. But I know it would never be in stores and I don't buy stuff over the internet, yet. Although it would be a great collection piece, I could say, hey look! I own a record!

[Links234]

I doubt he will put one out now. If he was going to do it why not do it when he released White Light?

[juanpe]

I like listening to vinyls from time to time ;) I'd definetely - if i could - buy one

[Nearfantastica]

My vinyl collection is bigger than my CD collection...

 

I *heart* vinyl. You come to love the inconsistencies of analog vinyl recordings...scratches and all. If an artist releases their work on vinyl, I make that my priority over any other release.

[Daedalus]

I have never owned anything on vinyl and I'm pretty sure i never will as i have no plans to buy a record player.

[no yu begin wher i end]

Vinyl=awesome. I bought an old Charlie Parker album from the 40's, and I have to say that it sounded more real than a cd or mp3 ever could. Records have a fuller sound than cd's anyway.

[Crusader]

I don't even have a phonograph. But I would likely buy one if people started releasing vinyl only tracks.

[Ravenous Yam]

Vinyl is awesome. Owns CD's in every way except portabilty and price.

 

 

Also, i remember an interview or something with Matt about Loser Anthems, and how he intentionally put a layer of vinyl-like hiss under the whole thing and tried to give it a vinyl-esque frequency response to make it sound better.

[S.E. Hardy]

and it does sound as vinyl-esque as a CD can.

[THE MAN]

Vinyl is dead, ad CD's are going soon as well.

 

As far as a WLRRR vinyl, it would only be for novelty purposes.

[Dookas27018]

yeah, novelty is the only reason. As much as I hate to say it, they are dead as are cds for the most part. I bought WLRRR, imported it and now it sits in my ipod. Ive listened to the actual cd twice. Am I happy about this, not really, but what can I do?

[reg]

you think he even comes here?

 

think again.

[ToadMan]

Vinyl is a better format in theory. The sound is stored in a purely analog format. That means when the sound is played back, the result is a pure sinusoidal function. Except for errors in the recording process, vinyl results in a more accurate reproduction of the original sound. I own the Avalanche vinyl and I would but a WLR&RR vinyl.

 

Peace

[penismightier]

as would I

[Dan #2]

Is there a spot to buy the Avalanche vinyl?

 

was it limited edition?

[penismightier]

yes, they are limited. much so like elephant ears at carnivals.

[Drizzt]

I would. Got the Avalanche one.

[Sparq]

Got mine on Ebay just recently. Yeah, I'd buy WLRRR.

[Mr. Chips]

I said yes. And just some more info: apparently VHS tapes are going to stop being made in Jan.

[Dookas27018]

not completely
