We have just purchased
about 3000 indie/punk/rock-titles which we will start selling
at the end of next week. Expect loads of classics and a lot of
fine titles in the bargain sections as we will need to sell duplicates
fast because of lack of space in our shop.
Since last update we have literally
been flooded with interesting records traded into our HQ - thanks
for that !!!! ( So we must be doing something right when we pay
well for top titles...)
The easiest would just be to visit our shop here in Aarhus to see for yourself, but as we love namedropping here is a small list of artists:
Smiths, Slowdive, My Bloody Valentine, Chapterhouse, A-ha,(?) Jandek, Current 93, Throbbing Gristle, Trentemøller, Looptroop, Joy Divison, New Order, Slayer, Metallica, Dimmu Borgir, Neil Young...well loads of stuff really...

Sorry about the long abscence of updates.
Major reasons are that we have been quite busy listing records
as well as we have been to the large record fair i Utrecht, Holland.
The list of new records in our shop
since last update is quite large, but highligts include a major
Stereolab collection with loads of the rarest titles. Furthermore
we have also got a bunch of classic indie and post punk records
including Fire Engines, This Heat, Wire, Blur, PJ Harvey etc.
You better check out our catalogue yourself.
