I still remember how much of a rort they were in the 90's. May not be your cup of tea but Resist records in Newtown has the goods especially if you are a fan of hardcore.Originally Posted by 1AZRAEL1

Utopia was great back in the day. Admittedly I haven't been there in ages. I remember when they were still at the bottom-end of George St (next to Hungry Jacks) and I went in there to ask about the yet-to-be-released debut Slipknot album and they had no idea who I was talking about

I remember walking past the George St store many years ago and decided against walking in to have a look. Later I found out that Dave Mustaine was inside signing stuff the exact time I walked past doh!

I saw Henry Rollins at Utopia in 1996. I was flipping CD's & he started browsing next to me. Ended up chatting with him for a few minutes. Pretty awesome as I am a huge Black Flag fan.

Funny that, but we were at Hogs Breath last night, and one of the kitchen hands walked passed and saw my beard and said "Nice beard, very viking-esqueWouldn't be your Norse blood being an influence perhaps?
Quite a good pair of covers IMO, nice acquisitions dude!
I already had the Tyr cd, but I bought it again coz this one had bonus tracks
They still do have some high prices, but I am finding myself going to them more because JB Hifi doesn't stock enough of the more unique metal bands that I like. Once in a while I found something at JB, but Utopia, I always spend at least $150 there every time I go in. Going there again shortly before work today
Yea, the staff back then didn't really have a clue most of the time. I remember when they were there too, massive store, alot of instore signings. Was great. then they moved up to Broadway and still had a big store on 2 levels, and instores, which I went to a few. Now they are on Bathurst Street at Town Hall. Easier to get to than BroadwayUtopia was great back in the day. Admittedly I haven't been there in ages.

Heh, would have been a cool thing if you did end up goin in.
He comes out every so often. I bet he will go in there soon when he does his spoken word tour. Want to go, but little funds to spare (yet I'm goin back to buy more stuff)

So the great Hursticon introduced me to a documentary called 'Metal: A Headbanger's Journey'
Wow, it's a good explanation to people outside of metal our culture and why we do what we do. It also shows how batsh!t insane Norwegian Black Metal is
