Bjork can kiss my lily white butt!

I went vinyl shopping the other day and Noticed that ALL Bjork vinyl is VERY VERY expensive. One Little Indian just re-released the Sugar Cubes and Bjork albums. The price tag...45.00 a pop! eek

Why does EVERYTHING she puts out have to be a collector item? I am very happy I am not obsessed with her as I'd be broke by now.

Maybe she should put out a Bjork Credit Card out there. Dang!

Who knows who prices them out. I was mainly being facetious. I know New Vinyl is expensive...but most new vinyl even re-issues on 180 gram don't cost as much as hers does.

bowie's been slipping, though. the whole deluxe remaster series derailed before it even got to station to station. pout

Pretty much all new vinyl is expensive. You want cheap, you buy CD's and mp3's, and you keep your vinyl collecting to older material.

It's not that The Joker's gay. What he is, is Batsexual. He'd be whacking it to Batsy whether our hero had girl parts or boy parts underneath that rubber. batman

ANd with Bjork, she puts it all out at once. There is no piece meal roll out of her catalog. She's done this with the live material, the reissues (Shit that came out as a big ol box too) and now the vinyl...and not just her albums but the Sugar Cubes as well.

Hey at least she's not doing a Fashion Line of Burlap Sack Dresses and Skirts with cowbells and ribbons. Nor is she putting out a Perfume line of Icelandic Cow Sweat. I did hear she is putting out a CD of yelps and gurgles. Rumor has it one of the songs will be a duet with Prince in which they each take turns screaming at each other.

45 dollars in the States? Well, the dollar's terribly weak at the moment so import records will end up costing a lot, additionally the US mail system has outpriced its services lately.

It costs stupidly lot to ship over vinyls from EU to US these days anyway.
