Got a Crazy Deal on the First Pressing of Relatives in Descent by Protomartyr (lemmy.ml)

Found Protomartyr's Relatives in Descent on vinyl at the local antique store for $15. Turns out it was the first pressing. Looked it up on Discogs and it's going for ~$80. Not that I care about online resale value, it's just cool that it's a semi-rare piece.

I just started buying vinyl, so this was a really nice surprise to get out of the blue. Great album by the way, Night-Blooming Cereus is my favorite track right now. If you've never got a chance to check out anything by Protomartyr I highly recommend them. I believe their newest album is Ultimate Success which is a banger as well.

Good stuff. Take a look at Ultimate Success next if you end up enjoying that album. Really anything by them is great, but Ultimate Success is their newest, I believe, so you can see where they are at musically now.
