Hate that shit. I didn't even think about the vinyl. Looks like they aren't wicked pricey on discogs, but I wonder if I could find a copy locally. I try to collect all my 5's

@dbizzles The shipping is always about the same price as the item for Australia lol. Also hi :3



@normaloctagon I always thought that expression meant have sex, but yeah hopefully it gets a repressing or I find a stable job so I can buy it without feeling so guilty



@Sinternet good man. You should go knock on his door and tell him to spend the lockdown finishing his new album.



@Pots He just posted that the touring has been relentless and he has not had any time to himself this year.

Touring local whorehouses



Nah I'm sure he has something ready. If an artist didn't use the covid downtime to write new material you've got to wonder what they've been doing.



Altho I guess the uncertainty of the touring situation would've been worrying smaller artists.

Maybe he's been applying for jobs.

"If an artist didn't use the covid downtime to write new material you've got to wonder what they've been doing."

thats the way i see it. if you were already planning on releasing an album in 2020 and covid happens and then you don't release it what the fucking shit are you doing

Yeah but the more I think about it I think the nature of the pandemic needs to be taken into account - it's not like we were told to take the year off, even for a musician they're probably worrying about family and friends, stressing about their finances, getting depressed from the isolation and just not in a very creative headspace.



But then if music is so important to them, you think they would double down on it during a tough time

I dunno dude seems like every other producer on the planet released like at least 5 albums this year

bands are a different story obvs but people who make music at home have been makin dat music at home

same as Australia, I've earned more money in the last 6 months than I ever have, but I've hardly worked.

Spent about a quarter of it on vinyl which was most likely the right thing to do

I definitely wasnt making more money than usual but we were given $2000 a month, a bonus one time $1000, $300 off rent per month, and free hydro (electricity) for like 7 months and since I wasnt spending much money that was more than enough to have a nice relaxing government subsidized vacation

Alot of Australians couldn't understand why so many American's were protesting the lockdowns because they assumed they'd be kept afloat by the government as well.



Pots you live in B.C don't you?

I wanted to move to Vancouver for a while but everyone told me it's so expensive it's almost impossible to move there without a lot of savings or a good job lined up

Vancouver is very expensive yes but iirc the major cities in Australia are just as if not more expensive so depending where you live it may be a similar hustle
