I balance my 80s vinyl glam with a dose of Black Metal. It’s called emotional equilibrium. 🤘🏻 Old Man’s Child never fails. #NowListening #BlackMetal #OldMansChild #Glam

Spinning Duran Duran’s Greatest Hits on white vinyl. “Rio” to “Ordinary World,” every banger hits harder analog. ’80s synth-pop heaven. Such a great collection! #DuranDuran #VinylVibes #NowSpinning

Throughout history we blamed Novels, Theatre, Music, Movies and Videogames. Now it’s AI’s turn to take some beating. I guess it’s just more convenient that way. #BlameTheNextThing #ai #culture

Finally preordered ’Kate Bush - The Best of The Other Sides’ Awesome album! BIG Thanks to Bengans.se for bringing it in for preorder by request. #katebush #vinyl #preorder #vinylcommunity #bengans

Re-discovering Blondie again. Only rule: All albums in chronological order, and no skips. #Blondie #NowPlaying #Rediscover

”- Once you go black, you never go back” someone once said. The person must have been one of those full time streamers. #VinylCommunity #NowSpinning #LimitedEdition #SamanthaFox #Spotify #Culture

Kim Wilde’s Never Say Never, such an underrated comeback. It’s got that perfect mix of modern polish and classic Wilde energy. Sadly it never got a vinyl release, I had to settle for the CD… but it’s still a gem. #KimWilde #NowPlaying #UnderratedAlbums

Went from a fully automatic 2000s snoozefest to a 70s semi-auto that actually makes me do stuff. Almost mint condition and smooth as hell. Manual cueing: because vinyl deserves foreplay. #JVC #VinylCommunity #NowSpinning #AnalogLife

The visuals, The touch, The smell, The sound. The cognitive engagement, and last but not least, The caretaking and upkeep. That quiet sense of reward when you drop the needle and settle in. You’ve earned it. Now enjoy it. This is why i love vinyl #vinylcommunity #physicalmedia #nowlistening #love

Wild how some drop thousands on gear to play music off a slab of cheap plastic. Vinyl’s got charm, sure, but let’s not pretend it’s alchemy. Just being a bit ironic, take it with a wink. 😉 #VinylLove #NowSpinning #AnalogForever #VinylCommunity

Streaming is fine, but I prefer physical media. It’s like hanging a nice painting on your wall or keeping a photo album to flip through, you don’t want art only in an app. Same goes for music. #VinylCommunity #PhysicalMedia #MusicMatters

For a metalhead born in the late ’70s, my vinyl shelf has a suspiciously generous amount of Samantha Fox. This is my latest find in Mint condition 🤘🏻🤪 (Image from Discogs) #touchMe #80sForever #metalhead

Would it be too much to ask for a vinyl record emoji? We’ve got 🧃 juice boxes, 🪩 disco balls, and 🛹 skateboards… But no wax? #vinyl #emoji #emojicrisis #vinylcommunity

Does anyone now where within EU borders get hold of one of these stylus guards, without actually buying a new stylus? In a temporary moment of dementia i managed to misplace it and can't find it anywhere. AT95, the newer model. #stylusguard #at95 #stylus #audiotechnica #lostindementia #europe

Kate Bush - The Whole Story. This is such a great compilation released in 1986. Sounds great too! Haven’t listened to the 2023 re-release yet. #katebush #vinylcommunity #nowlistening

This video breaks down how streaming algorithms reward safe, short songs, while classic big artists like Kate Bush, among other, even more modern artists get buried. Music used to surprise us. Now it’s mostly background noise. www.youtube.com/watch?v=POEf... #streaming #algorithm #musicsky

Serious question: are Ghost vinyl pressings known to be subpar? My copy of Skeleta is constant crackle, and I keep hearing complaints about their press runs… #VinylCommunity #Ghost #Ghostband #NowSpinning #Vinyl

Pat Benatar sang like she was breaking steel. Most 80s dudes sang like they’d broken a nail. #Vinyl #80s #WomenWhoRock #Rock

New spin: Pat Benatar – Get Nervous (1982). Her third album and one of her most striking — both sonically and visually. MTV era maybe? ‘Shadows of the Night’ still sounds massive, and that straitjacket cover? Pure 80s rock theatre. #VinylCommunity #80sRock #NowSpinning

Not just any record… Samantha Fox – Hold On Tight Special Limited Edition, engraved autograph copy. The 80s had a unique way of mixing pop, kitsch and collectability into the same pressing — and I just stumbled across this today for ~$7. #VinylCommunity #80s #Vinyl #NowSpinning

Time for an unscientific experiment. Vintage Stat-O-Matic mat vs the original Denon rubber mat (DP-300F). Both will sit directly on the aluminum platter. Test records: both freshly pressed and older LPs. In the name of science… or something vaguely resembling it. #VinylCommunity #NowSpinning

Found this untouched Samantha Fox poster still folded inside a 1986 issue of OKEJ magazine. Nearly 40 years hidden away – pure 80s time capsule vibes. Don’t know what to do with it tough. #80s #OKEJ #SamanthaFox #RetroFind #TimeCapsule

Mayhem – De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas on purple vinyl. The bass rumbles like a tombstone, the atmosphere pure ritual. Black metal history, summoned straight from the grooves. #VinylCommunity #NowSpinning #BlackMetal #Mayhem #VinylAddict

First spin of Dark Funeral – Vobiscum Satanas on vinyl. Owned the CD forever, but this pressing hits really hard, great mastering and pressing. More polished than the raw chaos of Secrets of the Black Arts – but every bit as summoning. #VinylCommunity #NowSpinning #BlackMetal #DarkFuneral #Vinyl

From Kim Wilde to Pat Benatar… straight into At The Gates. Like stepping off an 80s neon dancefloor and waking up in a steel mill in hell. 🔥⚙️ Slaughter of the Soul spinning now — razor-sharp riffs, pure melodic death fury from Sweden. #NowSpinning #VinylCommunity #AtTheGates #SlaughterOfTheSoul

Just spun Kim Wilde’s third LP Catch as Catch Can (1983). A record in limbo – dreamy and dark, caught between 1981 new wave and mid-80s synth shadows. A flop back then (her least-selling 80s album), but today it almost feels like a hidden gem between eras. #vinyl #KimWilde #NowSpinning

Just spun Kim Wilde’s Closer (2025) and… yeah, I didn’t just fall off my chair, the chair filed for divorce. This isn’t nostalgia, it’s evolution. An album meant to be played front to back – no cherry-picking, no crumbs left. #KimWilde #Closer #NowSpinning #VinylCommunity

They say some people find God. I found vinyl. Started in June 2024, no plan — just a hunger for sound, stories, and sleeve art that hits harder than therapy. I don’t collect. I connect. [repost, wrong picture in OP] #VinylSavedMe #NowSpinning #LPlover #VinylTherapy #NoSkipListening #Music

Posting my favorite excellent yet affordable entry-level turntable to all the Taylor Swift fans losing their minds over vinyl variants today. www.turntablelab.com/products/aud...

📀 Currently spinning: Kim Wilde – Select (1982) Cold synths, soft drama. No “Kids in America” here — just paranoia, heartbreak, and eyeliner. Kim went darker. I went with her. #KimWilde #Select1982 #NowSpinning #VinylCommunity #80sVibes #ColdPop

Since I started listening to vinyl records, I’ve found myself approaching streaming the same way. I let the album play from start to finish. I’ve realized I can appreciate the music more that way, instead of just picking out the raisins and ending up with nothing but a pile of crumbs. #vinyl #music

Friday and Queen at Wembley. No more words needed. #queen #wembley #wembley86 #live

Backblaze so saved my a** today. Thought I wiped my c drive only when restoring my PC but the f*cker wiped both c AND d drive. Music, games, photos was all lost, until I remembered that Backblaze was running in the background and had it all covered. Thank you!!! @backblaze.bsky.social

Depeche Mode and upgraded turntable and cartridge #Depechemode #denon #vinyl #AT-VM95E

So glad I found this. Limited nr.418/1000 #Hecateenthroned #limited #vinyl #blackmetal

Makes sense. #supportukraine

Kamala Harris was right. #kamalaharris #ukraine #trump

Some snap, some crackle, and some pop—does it really bother me? No! Is your life perfect? Neither is your vinyl collection. Imperfection is a part of life; it’s never perfect. Listen to your music, not your gear. #Vinyl #Vinylrecords #VinylLove #SnapCracklePop #slavaukraini

When you think your record is clean AF… check one more time. Love my hama brush. ’Queen in my ears, Kate in my left hand and a beer in my right hand’. #vinylrecords #queen #katebush #beer #slavaukraini #love

Cleaning day. Taking on Kate to the awesome tunes of Queen and a sip of beer. #vinyl #beer #queen #katebush

Carpenter Brut - LIVE Killer album! Call it Synthwave or not, it’s a killer! #carpenterbrut #Live #synthwave #vinyl

Ghost! Infestissumam! Probably their best work to this day. Don’t get me wrong, a lot of their albums are really great, but this one just speaks to me like no other. #ghost #infestissumam #ghostband #infestissumam #vinyl
