This is probably my favorite record shop so far. Tons of awesome vinyls. Just avoid the 'other' end of the store. (rap, hip-hop, etc.) The staff was pretty helpful last time I was in there too.

Haven't visited here for awhile, but I find it entirely impossible to walk into and out of this record store without spending $20 at the very minimum. Ask to look through their CD boxes: they have an impressive collection of albums, and I always seem to find something in their vinyl section as well. Plus the walls are lined with hundreds of metal t-shirts! Grade A place.

yeah, i love it as well. stumbled in so my brother in law could look up some old punk 7 inches last June... I ended up poring over boxes of metal cds... i found Cobalt's "Eater Of Birds" there, figured if they had that, go and ask for any relatively obscure artist i could think of. Ended up grabbing Portal's "Swarth" as well. didn't have everything i wanted by any stretch, but a couple gems i didn't expect to find made me a happy guy.

Used to get all of my CDs/metal paraphernalia here before I moved. Sweet place, sweet location (few blocks from a voodoo doughnuts and the Roseland).

I make a stop here every time I go to Portland.

I'd probably buy twice as much stuff if I didn't have to have them set the boxes up on the counter and I could just browse through everything though. I try to keep my searching specific so they don't have to unstack so many boxes, but then I always get home and remember a handful of things I forgot to check for.
