They're to be looked at, never played!

This "article" include several purchases, unlike the previous ones where I've tried to contain one purchase in each. My laziness prevented me from posting these purchases right away, so this is going to be a rather long post.
First I got the first full-length by Count Me Out from a dude on the deadformat.net trading board:

Count Me Out - 110 on solid yellow vinyl out of 331 on Indecision Records. I first got acquainted with CMO about a year ago when I first heard their second full-length entitled Permanent. Solid hardcore, and if I were to review Have Heart, I'd claim them to be in the vein of Count Me Out.

My order from Reflections Records arrived yesterday, I got this LP and an Outspoken shirt. Love this album:

I always tend to compare this release to Vision's "In The Blink Of An Eye" and don't really know why, they both just have something in the sound that I really like.

Next in line is a Sinking Ships 7" limited to just 8! SS collectors might ask, what the hell... I didn't know if this!?! It turns out that the guy from SS who runs Excursion Records found 8 extra of this Sinkings Ships 7". So he numbered them and gave people on the React board first shot at them. I was quick enough to get my hands on a copy:

Sinking Ships was put to rest way to early, but they released solid stuff in their time. This most definitely being one of them.

I went on a one-day trip to Esbjerg, only to pay Bogormen a visit, and here's what I brought home with me:

This is one of my two favourites by Tom Waits. The first track "Alice" is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard. This is very most like Blood Money, only a bit more diverse.

Original pressings of Sigur Rós records are quite expensive, so when they first reissued "Ágætis Byrjun" and "( )", I ordered those right away. I hoped for a reissue of "Takk...", since I missed that one when it first came out. It came about a couple of months ago and I picked it up in Esbjerg. It was relatively expensive, but considering what it contains, I guess there's no need to complain. 2 DMM Vinyls and a 10" etched b-side in a stunning thick cover. This is the last Sigur Rós I decided to buy, since I don't really like the newer stuff.

New AFI record is surprisingly good, compared to the last one, Decemberunderground. Even though the cover may indicate Duran Duran, the music is much more like Sing The Sorrow tha Decemberunderground, and I appreciate that. Track 3 entitled End Transmission is stunning in particular. The single from this album called "Medicate" is... average. I don't really understand why this is the single. It even came out on two different 7"s.

I had a great opportunity to stock up on some classics, which I have been meaning to get for some time, but never got around to buy. Now was the chance, so I picked up 4 great classics from two legendary hardcore bands, which everybody are familiar with, I presume.
There's really no reason to eloborate any words on YoT. Even though I haven't been listening to them for that long, I know through books and word of mouth that it's one of the most essential straight edge hardcore bands ever. These three records are probably the core of what I endure about the first wave of straight edge hardcore, along with 7 Seconds, Gorilla Biscuits, Bold and Uniform Choice. Speaking of 7 Seconds, I picked up The Crew - a record my good friend Benny introduced me to several years ago when we both lived in Esbjerg. It's muc more melodic, but make no mistake about that, it's still straight edge hardcore smeared all over your ears. Bogormen had like 4 copies of this...

And speaking of old goodies, here's some, to a lesser extent, classics I also got:

I haven't found Speak Out by Bold yet - not that it's hard to find, I just bought other stuff instead, but this MLP entitled Looking Back is really good as well. It's no Speak Out, but still good. I also wanted Value Driven by Better Than A Thousand, but I haven't found that one yet, so when this one was available for 80kr. (app. $16) I picked it up right away. Ray Cappo's BTAT is just m,y cup of tea, with the ribght amount of melodic rifss and the right amount of old school hardcore! Dag Nasty is a bit too melodic for me in comparisation.

Here's just a little addition to my CBK collection. This version is still available everywhere, I just had to pick it up at some point. Didn't really know if I wanted to include the Victory releases in my CBK collection, since I can't stand that label, but I am only missing one of 'em now, so what the hell....

Here are some CBK records I won on Ebay in one lot - was missing to of them:

From left to right:
white, red w/ labels, gold, red/clear w/ labels. I've got two of the white and the red one now, but I had to have the two others. now there 7 CBK recs to go and it's complete!!
