Hey, Black Friday is coming up. A day where we spend assloads of money we don’t have, right after a day where we flaunt our bloated bodies to the rest of the world who may or may not have enough food to survive. God bless ‘mairca! And apparently Black Friday is also Box Set Friday. We have (no joke) a 30-disc box set of Britney Spears‘ singles, a 70-disc box set of Miles Davis‘ Columbia recordings, a Buddy Holly box set (WANT), a box of all the Pixies records, a Kraftwerk box set and some other stuff. Pretty small release week aside from that.

Anything worth standing in line for in the cold outside Best Buy? Probably not, but somehow I don’t think that’s gonna hurt your chances. Early bird people rarely have good taste. I mean, look at them.

   Acheron – The Final Conflict…
   Satanic death metal. Like real satanic. They also are vaguely racist.

   The new Circle of Contempt has some interesting things going on. Not sure if I can commit to it though.

   Speaking of black Friday, everyone should check out amazon’s mp3 store. They have over 500 albums for $5 a piece. I just got some Avett Brothers and Matt & Kim. Some Andrew Bird, Thursday, and a ton more are on sale too.
