Thrice Collection

In light of Thrice taking an indefinite hiatus, I thought taking some snaps of 'em would make me feel better. Best band.






Xmas came early

Miles Away - Endless Roads Test Pressing /5

From the title, Xmas came early and I couldn't be more pumped to own a record than this piece. After losing the initial bid from SFU's rare releases to raise some money for the label, I got into contact with them and sorted out a deal to pick this up.

Record Update

Mixed bag of some new stuff I have received recently, all presents from my lady. All bands I dig and records I wanted, win win. Good work weffz.

City and Colour - Weightless 7" (/?) white vinyl





Have Heart - The Things we Carry 12" (/1000) Third Pressing - tri colour vinyl







City and Colour - Sometimes 12" (/?) - blue & yellow double LP

This package is unreal, said it before about the Record Store Day version but this is can't be beaten.








Compared to exclusive Record Store Day version:







50 Lions - Where Life Expires (5/100) Tour Pressing. Blue and white vinyl

Recently Six Feet Under (SFU) Records were selling exclusive records off to raise money for the label, this U.S tour pressing happened to be one of them:









Miles Away - Endless Roads (162/161) U.S Tour Pressing. Red vinyl.

Another LP from the SFU sale another to the Miles Away collection, this one being from their current U.S tour with a host of other sick bands. This is the third pressing from SFU for this release and through the ebay listing from the label, its noted that there was 164 of these, that would explain my 162/161 thats written on the back of the sleeve.


Comparison with the limited (/34) version Anchors Aweigh Records put out not so long ago.
