Scissor Sisters - Scissor Sisters 3CD Deluxe. Amazon had a voucher putting it down to £14.99 so I had to get it, especially when I'd passed on getting it in HMV as it was +£10 more expensive!

All-American Rejects - Move Along. Another reissue is out on Friday but includes the B-Sides from Dirty Little Secret and Move Along single releases; plus it's an album I've never owned physically.

Albums procured in HMV today:

Appleton - Side By Side (EP)

Ellie Goulding - I Know Too Much

FLO - THERAPY AT THE CLUB

Natalie Imbruglia - Algorithm (standard)

Natalie Imbruglia - Algorithm (deluxe)

Natalie Imbruglia - Algorithm (cassette)

I got the deluxe version of "Tangled Up" on CD, and a vinyl of the regular "Tangled Up" album. Maybe I should go thrifting for CDs.

Mark Owen - In My Own Time (album sampler)

Apologies for the photo dump but here’s some of the records I’ve bought over the past couple of months… inspired by the bonobo one that’s just arrived and the insane matching of artwork to record design… and followed by some others that I also think are particularly pretty and well coordinated in their design.

NOW VAULT 1986 arrived today

I'm so jealous of everything in this picture! Especially the Mag Bay one 😍 they look stunning.

Imaginal Disc is really pretty - took me a while to track it down but eventually found one at a reasonable price. One of the times where Blood records definitely got it right

Wow, all of those are absolutely stunning.

When I first started buying I got loads of things but I'm being far more selective these days and only really buying things where I think I'll enjoy the album and I feel like it's a package that I will enjoy aesthetically as well. I do think sometimes that I enjoy looking at them more than actually listening to them!!

got adéla on cd, ariana - petal on white vinyl amd yeule - evangelical girl is a gun on vinyl

I love seeing people’s purchases from the charity shops, particularly @Jade and @JosephStyles.

My favourite part of this thread.

Missed out on the signed wildchild inserts but seen Banquet still had these thought it was an insert oops

Picked up a few that I pre-ordered back in June plus saw Tinashe and obviously had to get it immediately.
