Gojira - From Mars to Sirius (20th Anniversary Zoetrope)

I've never cared much for picture discs or other gimmicky pressings, but I had to have this one since *FMtS* is one of my all time favorites. I wasn't expecting much in terms of audio quality but it actually sounds pretty good, though it's so thick I had to adjust the height of my tonearm a bit lol.

Feels Good, Man

I work nights, so my wife puts our daughter to bed without me most of the week. Consequently, our daughter only wants her mom when it comes down to bedtime on the weekends. Last night she fell asleep in my arms for the first time since she was just a few months old.

Explosions in the Sky - The Earth is Not a Cold Dead Place

This album introduced me to Post Rock and broadened my sonic horizons in such a profound way. 20+ years after first hearing it, I finally got it on vinyl and it sounds amazing! Happy Friday, y'all.

De La Soul - 3 Feet High and Rising

Was digging through the collection I inherited from my oldest brother and discovered this first pressing! In over a thousand LPs, this is the only Hip Hop record he had.

Between the Buried and Me - Colors II

Been a fan of BTBAM since the *Alaska* days but after *The Great Misdirect*, I lost track of them for a while. Recently been trying to catch up with them and discovered *Colors II*. Holy shit this album is amazing, practically been on repeat the last 3 weeks.

Gojira - From Mars to Sirius

Heard this for the first time in early '06 and it honestly didn't do much for me at the time. But the friend who showed it to me had always had good taste and knew what I liked, so a short while later I gave it another try. It finally clicked and has been one of my all-time favorites ever since. Hard to believe 20 years have gone by, a lifetime by some metrics...

Finally got it on vinyl and it sounds killer. Happy Sunday, you filthy animals🤘
