Tomorrow, February 3rd, is Bandcamp Friday. Tropical Fuck Storm/The Drones bassist (also Gareth Liddiard's wife, also babe of babes) Fiona Kitschin is battling stage three breast cancer :( and the band has had to cancel all shows. So: buy EVERYTHING by them!
https://tropicalfstorm.bandcamp.com/ https://thedrones.bandcamp.com/ https://thedronesremixed.bandcamp.com/ As for The Drones' "proper" albums, they're scattered among several different record labels, so some of them are hard to find and/or afford, but Amazon seems to have at least the brilliant Feelin Kinda Free in stock: https://www.amazon.com/Feelin-Kinda-...dp/B01B9HAV9C/ Last but certainly not least, all proceeds from the sale of this new T-shirt go to TFS: https://tropicalfstorm.bandcamp.com/...aviour-t-shirt ![]() |
I was thinking about getting some vinyl's via bandcamp, but the shipping prices are so incredible, that it's not doable anymore. Buy a vinyl album worth of $25, the shipping will be more or less the same :mad:

Bandcamp aside, international shipping costs are all over the place nowadays. My mom just received a book from Greece - I checked the stamps and the guy who sent it only had to pay €3.90 for fast delivery. Sending an equivalent package from here to Greece costs... €32.59! The fuck is up with that? I don't know! :mad: |
Instant Chavirés is on Bancamp. Here's a recording of an Okkyung Lee noise solo show from 2014:

It suddenly hit me that I still know what a bandcamp is.
|
I finally looked it up.
So, please tell me: Is there anything by Merzbow or Vomir on bandcamp, he asked, expecting the answer NO? |
I looked it up: Impressive. That shit is there.
As a dinosaur CD person, at a time when certain artists have refused to do CDs (fuck you Gizz), I begin to consider my options. |

Plenty of CDs, vinyl and tapes on Bandcamp. Sometimes in editions of 50 copies, but whatchagon'do. :) |
Oh. I thought it was streaming.

It's streaming, it's download in the format of your choice, and (not always, but I would say more often than not) it's physical. Read the bloody page, dammit. ALSO: in a little over three hours, it'll be Bandcamp Friday, when BC waves its fees and the artists get mo' money, so if you're gonna buy something, now (well, in three hours and change) is the time. |
But I want to buy CDs. Bandcamp helps me do this?
I just went onto Amazon, and in Canadian dollars, shipping included, I got: Flux Information Sciences - Private/Public - $15.48 Spirit Of The Beehive - ENTERTAINMENT, DEATH - $19.45 Bandcamp is better? (I need an account to find out, right?) |

Nah, you can search for music and calculate shipping costs without an account. I don't think Flux Information Sciences is on Bandcamp. Spirit Of The Beehive's ENTERTAINMENT, DEATH is, though, but you're F'd: ![]() Christ on a stick! This is why I have all my shit shipped to the States first (shipping this CD to the US would cost you four bucks...) |
Ha! Look at that shipping. Thanks for this.
Well, I guess I'm still in bed with Mr Bezos. |

That amount is completely fucked up and makes no sense at all. I was just checking a £27.00 double LP from the UK and the shipping cost to the US is £9.40. :confused: |
