I bet In Utero is really well produced, isn't it?

Was this sarcastic?
haha, but yeah you have a serious point about the loudness war - specifically limiting in the mastering process rather than compressing in the actual mix. And the mid-range boosts are specifically for this reason as well, as mids give an impression of added volume, and it really ruins the music.

That's another thing I miss in new music. Bands spending months in the best studios with the best kit with the best engineers etc.

I tend to hate well-produced music - perhaps it's irrational but I just don't like it. Especially with the dawn of auto-tune, 'well-produced' albums dominate the mainstream and it's not all that great.

While a lot of my music is based around fairly lo-fi stuff, I'd say that the best compromise I've found is Steve Albini recorded albums: Surfer Rosa and In Utero in particular. They aren't my absolute favourite albums per se (although they are pretty close) but I just find them a realistic, soulful and genuine representation of the bands... Maybe it's my imagination?

50mm screw-mount lenses are common as dogshit, and lots of them have good quality optics and are cheap. Try charity shops, or oxfam online normally has a good few of them.

Everyday

Formal

(although it needs a new face and i'm not sure how to fashion one)

Good shout.

I don't want to try and ruin your sale, but don't clincher shamals normally command a higher pricetag than their tub equivalents?
Although I appreciate they come with good quality tubs

If it's an 80s racer, it's likely to take 700, non?

I am currrently building up an old 80s racer for my runaround at uni.

Used to have this frame before it was jacked.
Reaally nice

coppiThat knows a lot about watches, so maybe he'll have an opinion....

Thanks, I hope he doesn't mind me dropping him a line.

Nope, no curvature. Cheap watch, but I don't want to throw it away.
I was just thinking of thin glass/plastic to use and the fact that old slides were glass popped into my head.

Perhaps not the most sensible of ideas...

SURFER ROSA
classic.

Hi everyone, I know it's a really long shot, but does anybody have any 35mm slides which do not have anything developed onto them?
Preferably the old glass ones, as I need to make a new face for my watch.

They would need posting, but I could pay you dorrah via paypal, or make a forum donation etc...

Thanks

I haven't yet, actually I posted in there the other day.
Worth a try
Cheers.

Correct me if i'm wrong, but I always thought that the 25.4 diameter is only around the clamp.
The size you'd need for a brake lever would be 22.2

The rims are clincher.

Are you sure they're track rims? I'd have thought track rims would be tub only.
Either way, I rather want them.

those most recent pics are sick, although not too sure about the stem position in the bike at the bottom?
haha

i am but a petty upstart in comparison

yes, i vote split!

if you decide to split, dibs back wheel
i could collect, although i appreciate this is unlikely

just in case anyone is thinking of taking a holiday in grimsby...

I'm actually in Leamington now. Where abouts are they? Not been vinly shopping in years! Might need to shift some of my classic late 90's/early 00's vinyl at some point.

Ahh yeah, they're in bedford street so pretty central, above a shop called kong.
Feel free to shift any of your vinyl to me if you need to!

casasteve, you're in coventry aren't you?
have you ever been to seismic records in leamington before? they are really good if you ever decide to buy jungle records again

i wasn't too keen on the headliners from either year but i agree, this year's are a bit tame, especially gnr who are utter shite.

i'd say the bands beneath them make up for it though, i just hope some good, less mainstream bands turn up on the other stages (:

yeah, think there was a stream of his single on the nme site a while ago. didn't like it too much, but then again i've always found his lyrics a bit cringey.

it feels like its been ages and they should have released the rest of the line-up but i guess we'll just have to wait and see...
