attention, residents of Alexandria: take a wrong turn down the wrong alleyway, and you might find yourself face to face with Lars

Metallica Sells So Much Vinyl It Just Bought Its Own Pressing Plant
The group -- which pressed 900,000-plus pieces of vinyl in 2022 alone -- is acquiring most of Furnace Record Pressing in Virginia.

To be fair, I would take a copy of Adele 30 at Goodwill prices.

does it?  they say they will continue working with other bands, this press isn't going 100% metallica... hetfield & co will certainly have priority, but i don't think they move enough volume to take over everything.

Ok, didn't read the article, but thought they just bought the plant so they could make the records they needed

No problema


CD Cellar is putting out a lot of great used vinyl.
They post pictures of the good stuff on their Facebook
I was going to buy a few items but prices like $60, $45, $50 kind of put me off…I guess I didn’t want any of them that badly cause I have paid that before and this time I walked out empty handed

Cd cellars fb feed is torture, they are posting some killer slabs… but then you zoom in on the price and are like “mp3s don’t sound soo bad”

Yeah the prices are kind of surreal on the choice stuff

Like $375 for the Melodians. Geez, I know it’s rare but damn….I saw one other record- I forget what/ for $650!

I guess I have a bit of an issue when record stores begin to just follow discogs pricing. I mean if your prices are so similar I can just buy everything on discogs.

On the other hand they are paying sellers 1/3 of what they price it at….theoretically…

Anyways I still find plenty of great stuff at CD Cellar
