      @@Lxcifer420 I'm in Australia but I'm a long way from Sydney. I've had a look on their website and was very impressed. The only gripe I have is they are out of stock of a lot of old CD's like the first Deicide album, the first Dismember album etc. Is there a way you can order them? Because I didn't find it on their site.

    I LOVE THE METAL COMMUNITY ON THE INTERNET, because most of the times in your local town or city it's hard to know a place where you can be with your people and enjoy the music you love which in our case is Heavy Metal and when the Metal community puts magazines, videos and interviews it gets crazy and Little Punk is amazing too!!
    Keep Metal Alive!! This is my motto :)

  • @crushingthevector5837
    @crushingthevector5837 3 роки тому +1

    So there IS at least ONE cool place left in PA? I love the store. May have to send some music that way. "The Kids today" cant believe I said that, but they have no idea how cool a place like this really is. That is a land of new discovery. So much music. Vinyl no less. The Greatest presentation for music and bands. I would love to see a store like this open in my area here in Florida. ALL music fans should support this place. Not just because they support Metal BUT also they made more than one mention of supporting LOCAL and TOURING bands. If theyre supporting unsigned and up and coming artists, they are top notch and deserve everyone's support. Very cool place and I will make an effort to visit this store.

    Unfortunately a lot of the small record stores around here in Southern California are closing. Lovell's in Whittier is still going as is Rhino Records in Claremont. I'm glad that fourteen year old kids are discovering metal and punk, just like I was thirty years ago. Back then you had to search out the stuff. It wasn't all at your fingertips like it is now. You kids have it so easy!

    I’ve been there once. Cool record store. It was the first time I’ve been to a record store with so much metal. The record stores near my house don’t have a lot of metal, but have a lot of classic rock. I took advantage of the large amount of metal records and bought a lot.
