Amazon.com's got the bling, throwing mad cash around without a thought whistling through it's head. It need not waste time wooing -- cash thrown snags the hook everytime.

now my heart is broken. revolver is out of olneyville so no cd. but i did sell back the junior boys and as i did the record store guy asked if i thought was boring too.

jack cole (jackcole), Thursday, 30 September 2004 20:35 (twenty years ago)

what's the deal with the new Sandoz Lab Techs? I looked on FE but they don't have it.

Roy Williams Highlight (diamond), Thursday, 30 September 2004 20:43 (twenty years ago)

Ian c=====8 (orion), Thursday, 30 September 2004 21:08 (twenty years ago)

Album Description
This Washington, DC duo consists of underground cult guitar hero Mik Barr (CROMTECH) and drummer Joshua Barr (ABCs, SUPERSYSTEM). This record is one long track and takes a new tack for the band, repetition. Along with the obvious metal influences, some new elements arise here including, but not limited to, minimalism and Middle Eastern music. Brutal prog.

when i interviewed there, i was told "Gold Box" was essentially a way for people to buy up items that were just collecting dust in the warehouse.. it would be interesting if they refined it to try and know your buying habits, even though it's what I expected from the beginning.

(That said, I did end up buying a small short-wave radio via GOLD BOX for around $15? It's a great little noise maker)

donut hallivallerieburtonelli omg lol (donut), Wednesday, 5 October 2005 21:04 (nineteen years ago)

when i interviewed there, i was told "Gold Box" was essentially a way for people to buy up items that were just collecting dust in the warehouse..

well that's what i figured--it seems now that they're just targetting the unsold stuff by previous purchases/demo/whatever instead of trying to unload it on everyone.

guess those director's series discs aren't exactly flying out the door!! go figure!!

s1ocki (slutsky), Wednesday, 5 October 2005 21:08 (nineteen years ago)

Yeah, originally it was wack stuff like baby formula and gardening books, etc etc etc. It disappeared for a few weeks at a time and now it's back with a vengeance.
