Yup, sounds like a mental health issue to me.

Meh, I just believe in physical media and am actually looking for a CD player small enough to squeeze in the leftover space of my rack.

Case in point: the current streaming version of one of my favorite albums of all time has been mixed differently than the original CD/Vinyl/Streaming version.

They can edit out or delete parts of TV episodes or trash entire the entire thing - what makes you think that won't eventually happen with music?

Unhappy

No one believes me that Nina Persson swore multiple times in every song on Life when I bought it in '95. Every version online: just scrubbed completely clean, Disney-fied. Filthiest mouth in rock at the time and now it's just, oh, weren't The Cardigans so sweet. "Fucktool" is now called "Lovefool"? It's an outrage. I saw them on tour and the words and phrases coming out of her made me cry, I was so scared.

You mean you didn't get Billy's Crosley record player he bought for $50 and scribbled some Christmastime lyrics on it? Pffft and you call yourself a fan.

its 2022 so i tend to agree with you but not many of the wierdo shit music projects are making CDs (maybe mini-cds?)

like i see no reason to buy a beyonce vinyl. obviously buy it on CD. obviously stream it. what are we even fucking talking about here?

How does he feel about having a name that sounds like it was taken from a sci-fi psychological thriller?

Does he lean into it?

I bought the MCIS bootleg 3 record vinyl today. I used to have the 4 record official version that I paid $80 for when it came out, but I sold it a couple years later for $100. So now I will have the vinyl again at least and still ended up paying less than I did in the beginning. Thats what B0lly gets for never releasing his vinyls as promised. Fuck you B0lly

Disco Jon & krackhead have been making multiple posts out of character recently & it's making me question quite a bit as it relates to reality, sanity, & most importantly,
