of Montreal - 5 LP Reissues

Of Montreal are sadly one of those bands who somehow managed to dissappoint me more & more with each new record they release. Fortunately enough, the people from Polyvinyl are making all their old records available again on LP. You can either buy their first 5 records all separately to comlete your personal collection, or you buy them as a bundle together with James Husband's debut album "A Parallax I" (featuring of Montreal members).

The seperate LP's which all come on heavy 180g vinyl by the way, are only $12 each, except the "Coquelicot Asleep In The Poppies: A Variety of Whimsical Verse", which is a 2xLP and costs $16. The package comes at $60, so basically you get one of the records for free if you do so. More info and pre-orders are up at Polyvinyl

HISTORY OF HEX

Born and raised in the 80s, my first music purchase ever was Metallica's "Kill Em All". After that, Guns N Roses and Maiden followed, to become submerged in the booming hardcore scene and into the likes of Kindred, Biohazard, Congress, Snapcase, Boy Sets Fire, Liar, Culture, Morning Again, etcetera. In the late 90s my attention shifted more towards bands such as Botch, Converge, Coalesce, Cable, Rorschach, Deadguy, Starkweather, Reversal Of Man, Charles Bronson and the likes, as well as all the emobands coming out like Mineral, Elliott, Texas Is The Reason, Cursive, Waxwing, Joshua, etc. Then I got older. Nowadays, my tastes range from Appleseed Cast to Animal Collective, from Black Mountain to Burzum, from Cat Power to Converge, from Damien Jurado to Down, from Earth (hence the name of this blog) to Elliott, from Forensics to Fugazi, from Girls Vs Boys to Grizzly Bear, from Harkonen to Hey Mercedes, from Isis to I Am Kloot, from Jesu to Jucifer, from Karate to Koop, from Liars to Leviathan, from Mineral to Mastodon, from Neurosis to No Warning, from Om to Owls, from Pelican to Phosphorescent, from Q and not U to Quetzal, from Radiohead to Racebannon, from Samothrace to Sunn0)), from These Arms Are Snakes to Two Gallants, from Ulver to Unbroken, from Venetian Snares to Vampire Weekend, from Wolf Parade to Waxwing, from Xiu Xiu to Xasthur, from Yob to Young Widows, from Zombi to Zoroaster. Yeah, that was fun, thanks for asking.
