Record Collector of the Month - March 2022


First album: The record that set collecting in motion was a plain white copy of ‘Intrinsic’ from The Contortionist. It’s one of those albums that’s just so perfect in a lot of ways. The timing was great, the proximity in the discography is perfect, the songwriting was so pivotal for my ear at the time, the lyrical content, etc. etc. I fortunately had the chance to open for them at a local show right before the album came out. They played some of the songs from it for one of the first times ever live. I could go on, but I digress. Aside from that, I’d also inherited my dad’s old collection, as most do. It’s stocked with the classics: Journey, Def Leppard, Nazareth, Boston, etc.

Favorite Enjoy The Ride or Enjoy The Toons release: Another trick question? I was lucky enough to witness the golden age of Nickelodeon (Doug, Rugrats, KABLAM!, Angry Beavers, Aaahh!!! Real Monsters, Hey Arnold). By a small margin, I think ‘The Best of Nicktoons’ takes the cake. It’s got all that and more. It’s perfect. I still vividly remember stumbling on your site to find a treasure trove of nostalgia. Somehow it timed out well and you had the green and orange splatter on clear copies in stock. I knew I had to have it. Vol. 1 of Hey Arnold! is very close behind though. The A side is fantastic, even when you take it out of context. It’s really a remarkable release. Upon listening to it the first time, I was so immersed in it that I forgot it was a record. Literally no fuzz, cracks, pops anything. It’s superb in every measure. Also, ‘Riding the Wave’ from The Blanks. I love Scrubs.

Favorite album artwork: You’re really making me think about these. Some album art is great as a stand-alone, but there’s always a few that match every nuance and detail of the record. The one that sticks out the most to me is ‘Melting Sun’ from Lantlôs. It’s an encompassing, embracing listen full of summer warmth which Pascal Hauer captured perfectly in the artwork. The oranges and pinks throughout are so bright and vivid but not in a commanding way, you know? They get your attention, they can’t be ignored, but they draw you in. The whole gatefold is stunning. If you’re looking for some post-winter pre-spring tunes, this album is the jam.
What are your favorite local record shops to support? The Exclusive Company and Eroding Winds. I visit the Green Bay and Appleton Exclusive Co. locations regularly, ok, habitually. Tom at the Green Bay location is incredibly helpful, always helping me get a hold of titles I’m after and willing to place special orders for me. I’ve been going there since middle school when I was just collecting CDs. I haven’t calculated the percentage of my collection that’s come from The Exclusive Company, but I’d be willing to bet nearly half. I’m really spoiled to not have to drive hours to find quality selection. The folks at the Appleton location are fantastic too. I’ve had tons of help with the audio side of collecting from their guy Todd. Eroding Winds, also the HQ for Gilead Media, is a newer found haven for
me. I don’t get there often enough as it’s a bit farther of a drive, but when I do, the owner Adam always makes it worthwhile. I blame (thank) him for showing me the ropes on Imperial Triumphant and fueling my deep dive into their work. He’s another one that’s always courteous beyond typical standards.What have you been listening to more frequently lately? I’ve been on a pretty big Meshuggah kick. I think about this time every year since 2017, I dive into their discography heavily. This year it’s been a focus on ‘The Violent Sleep of Reason’ and ‘Catch ThirtyThree.’ I’ve also been on a Sleep Token kick. Their newest album took some time to grow on me but it’s continuing to grow quickly. Aside from those two, it’s been ‘Zeal & Ardor’ from Zeal & Ardor, ‘Natoma’ from Stormlight, ‘The Goatman’ OST from The Unseen, ‘Krüller’ from Author and Punisher, and ‘The Shape of Everything’ from SOM on frequent rotation.
What was the best album(s) you've discovered this year: It’s still early in the year, but I’ve been listening to the new album from this French outfit Celeste called ‘Assassine(s)’ a ton. It wasn’t mind-blowing at first, but the more I listen the more I’m finding I really enjoy it. It sounds like a sort of blackened Gojira. If Mario has Wario, in terms of sound, Gojira has Celeste. I’ve also been blindsided by ‘Kinfolk 2: See the Birds’ from Nate Smith recently. I was naively misled that he was only involved with Vulfpeck but turns out he’s well-versed and multi-talented. Massive thanks to Mike at Silent Pendulum Records for sending me a copy and showing me this incredible album. I’ve been watching (binging) Dexter and recently found out about Michael C. Hall’s band Princess Goes to the Butterfly Museum. I’ve taken a quick liking to that, and it’s outside of most of my listening habits so it’s a nice change of pace.
What upcoming releases are you most excited about? First and foremost, the approaching release from The Contortionist. They always tease stuff out of the blue which amplifies the excitement. If my hunches are correct, it’s on the horizon. Aside from that, I know the new Animals As Leaders record ‘Parrhesia’ will be phenomenal. The singles released so far are as mind-bending as ever. I’d be willing to wager the same for ‘Immutable’ forthcoming from Meshuggah. There’s also a label, Wax Vessel, dedicated to resurrecting cult classic MySpace era bands that’s putting out one of my favorites from back in the day. It’s the full discography from the band Silence. It’s that quintessential deathcore stuff I was big on back in high school and I can’t wait for my copy to arrive.

Scenario time! If you could create a vinyl variant for any album (already pressed or never been pressed before), what would it look like? I’ve inadvertently been thinking about this for a while. I’ve always felt half and half variants are underappreciated. I have a soft spot for them. To reference my prior list, if I were to have a hand in pressing any Jakub Zytecki release, I’d choose ‘Nothing Lasts, Nothing’s Lost.’ I’d start with a half pastel pink and half baby blue record to match the album art. I’d add in some grey and black inner splatter, originating from the center label only on the blue half, and finish it off with strictly radial splatter on the pink side. I haven’t seen anyone do this (yet) and I think the result would be something unique to add the ever-growing variant diversity.

HOW I CATCH MY CHEATING SPOUSE

I was suspicious that my spouse was being unfaithful but had no concrete proof. To ensure I handled the situation ethically and responsibly, I hired a professional 5ISPYHAK to assess the security of our shared devices. HE performed a legal and transparent audit of our phones with my consent, focusing on any vulnerabilities or suspicious activities. During the process, they uncovered a series of encrypted messages and hidden apps that my spouse had been using to communicate with someone else. 5ISPYHAK provided me with detailed evidence, which allowed me to confront the situation directly and make informed decisions about my relationship. While the discovery was difficult, the ethical approach taken by the hacker ensured that everything was done within legal and moral boundaries. This clarity gave me peace of mind and helped me take the necessary steps forward in my life. CONTACT HIM VIA EMAIL 5ISPYHAK437@GMAIL.COM

I’m a testament that miracles happen. When I turned 18, My grandfather encouraged me to buy a lottery ticket for fun but I wasn’t pleased with the way I kept on playing without winning. I was eager to learn more about how to win the lottery and when I searched the internet I found numerous articles saying how they won the lottery through his spells and I decided to give it a try by contacting Lord Meduza. I’d love to say that this man is such a sweet soul who got my back all through the process of making me a lottery spell to win the lottery. The numbers he gave me won me the LOTTO 6/49 Gold Ball of a whopping $48,000,000 Million Canadian Dollars. Right now, my family and I are blessed. Thank you LORD MEDUZA for making this win come true for me and my family.

HOW I CATCH MY CHEATING SPOUSE
June 14 2026
I caught my wife cheating on me with my friend. This literally broke my heart when I found out by hiring 5ISPYHAK to remotely gain access to my wife’s phone so I could see her text messages and WhatsApp messages too.
One fateful morning while my wife was getting ready for work, a text came in on her phone and I saw “hey babe, can’t wait to see you on friday 💕”.she had my friend’s name saved as another name. Unfortunately, she wasn’t there atm but her phone was locked and I didn’t have access to her phone.
This made me really suspicious because she had told me earlier in the week she was going on a business trip so I knew immediately she was cheating on me 💔. I remember going online immediately to search how to spy on a cheating spouse phone and I somehow landed on a forum where they recommended 5ISPYHAK as a private investigator and how he can remotely access device.
In summary, I contacted 5ISPYHAK and told him about my situation. Gave him some details about my wife and that was all he needed to gain remote access for me. After 4hours, he gave me access to her WhatsApp message and Message/text messages as well. I read all their conversations and how they have even been mocking me in their chat. I printed all their chats for evidence.

June 14 2026
knew something was wrong the moment my wallet balance did not look right. Within minutes, my Ethereum and Solana holdings worth about 470,000 dollars were gone. No warning, no reversal, just a clean and calculated drain.
At first, I tried to figure it out myself. I checked transactions, approvals, and recent activity, hoping I had missed something simple. But the truth was harder to accept. This was a targeted attack, not a mistake.
I was then introduced to 5ISPYHAK Hacker Recovery Company. I did not expect much since crypto transactions are known to be final. Still, I decided to try. They immediately began a deep analysis of my wallet using blockchain forensics. One method that stood out was transaction clustering, where they grouped linked wallet addresses based on patterns in how the stolen funds were moved. This allowed them to follow the trail even after the assets were split and transferred multiple times.
Their breakthrough came when they identified points where the funds touched exchanges. Using detailed forensic reports, they worked with those platforms to flag and freeze suspicious accounts. At the same time, they helped me secure what I had left and close the gaps that allowed the attack.
The process took time, but it worked. A significant portion of my ETH and SOL was recovered.
This experience changed how I see crypto completely. It is not just about investing, it is about staying alert at all times. What felt like a total loss turned into a hard lesson and a partial recovery I did not think was possible.
