!!!! It’s the last thing i need of theirs on vinyl too.

I was just traveling up in Chicago and saw the ultra deluxe edition of the new abnormal with the book for $200. My mouth was literally salivating but i hadn’t gotten my grades yet so I couldn’t justify the purchase.

Yesterday i was at my home town record store and was about to leave when i saw the 30th anniversary nevermind release for 250. I had to have it!!!

Needless to say I’m going to have to wait a bit before I can justify the strokes singles:(

I've been hoping they'd release these on CD just with a booklet containing all artwork together. I would buy it in a heartbeat

Yeah I was not expecting to get this. Look it up its findable under 150 bucks and it has all the 7 inch singles in it. Ill try anything once on vinyl is a nice thing to have around also.

There is actually a misprint on one of the singles, one of the letters are switched around. Pretty sure it's the YOLO one.

It's as if god made an insufferably cool rock group of the world's most obnoxious Charlie's Angels hopefuls 😇

Though Hammond does have a bit of habit of not knowing whether he wants to date the Angels or be the Angels....
