Got a test press of F&NSD on vinyl tonight… looks really really special

Vinyl for F&NSD is coming soon. I, for one, love vinyls. They just look so awesome.

Also, for those of you who are interested, check out Ethan’s site to see his top 10 albums of the last decade, and more..

Here’s a quick look at it:

I decided to put together a top 10 list of my favorite records that came out in the last decade. I think it’s a fun way to see people’s taste and it’s also a great way to discover new music. Some albums in my list may not be from my favorite artists, but I’m trying to narrow it down to records I could not stop listening to over the last 10 years. These are in no particular order.

U2 – All You Can’t Leave Behind
Social Distortion – Sex, Love & Rock and Roll
Metallica – Death Magnetic
Switchfoot – The Beautiful Letdown
Coldplay – A Rush Of Blood To The Head
