[Space]

April 17th this year any cool stuff happening for it? I'm gonna be away otherwise I'd be making sure the lads up here do something for it. Might have to get them to do something anyway.

Soundgarden and SubPop to re-release on Record Store Day:

"Hunted Down" b/w "Nothing To Say"

A limited edition, orange vinyl 7" reissue of Soundgarden's SubPop debut single "Hunted Down" b/w "Nothing To Say" will be available at select independent record stores on Record Store Day, April 17th.

I recall being annoyed I didn't get a copy of this. Now I remember why.

Pretty nice selection of songs/bands there. Hopefully they'll do something similar this year.

The Soundgarden record is the only one of interest to me so far.

Road are putting together a compilation CD for RSD 2010. Mumblin Deaf Ro and Richer Than Astronauts are supposed to be on it but I don't know who else.

From the Jim Carroll blog

Like the record industry, the record stores have to realise that their past glory days are over and will not return. Accept it and move on. Purchasing habits for many music fans have changed and theyare no longer be able to spend their lunch hour or Saturday morning traipsing from shop to shop. The Kids, the ones who are supposed to save us all, favour other means to acquire music. Indeed, the next time you’re in a record store, count how many in the store are under 30 or, even, under 40 years of age. As Olan O’Brien from All City Records remarked at a Banter discussion back in January, “running a record store is like running an angling shop these days: the customers are all middle-aged men”.

“running a record store is like running an angling shop these days: the customers are all middle-aged men”.

I think I spot a niche.

"
Compiled as a limited 12" release for Record Store Day 2010 on Saturday April 17, Fragments From Work In Progress finds various artists from the 4AD roster exclusively showcasing rough drafts and material ahead of each act's forthcoming work."
A1: Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti 'Menopause Man'
A2: Tune-Yards 'You Yes You'
B1: Blonde Redhead 'Not Getting There'
B2: Gang Gang Dance 'Slime City (Heaven)'
B3: The Big Pink 'With You'

Sweetness bar the big pink, which are very dull indeed.
