Did you just make devil horns? I sure did. I’ve done it every single time that I’ve read the email that I got today, letting me know that UK trio Band of Skulls are this week’s free track of the week in the Itunes Music Store, where you can download their new single “I Know […]

Waking up with Nils Lofgren
After a period of being available exclusively at NilsLofgren.com (purchase), Nils Sings Neil is getting a traditional retail release via your favorite local record store and online outlets. The disc hit stores this past Tuesday (2/24) and I had the pleasure of running a radio tour that same morning with Lofgren in which he spoke […]
Listening Party: Check out new releases from Queensrÿche and Jane’s Addiction
It’s been a brutally busy week here in Vinylland, which is Vinyl-speak for “the real world has been kicking my ass this week.” As usual, it’s been the music helping me to maintain my alleged sanity, including a trip back to 1997 with the Dog’s Eye View album Daisy, paired with lots of new music, […]
Hey Cleveland! Here are the details for Record Store Day at Music Saves + Black Sabbath vinyl details + more!

Contest: Limited edition Thin Lizzy vinyl for YOU!
It’s been a looooong time since we’ve given anything away here at Addicted to Vinyl. In honor of Record Store Day, which is coming up on April 18th, I had this crazy idea that it might be cool to give away some VINYL! It seems to me like a good way to get everyone properly […]
El Rojo! Today is the day for The Bakerton Group (Clutch-related)
Clutch is one of those bands. You either like ’em, or you don’t. But from my side of the fence, how can you not? I’ll admit that it took me a little bit of time to figure out what Clutch was all about. And then I figured it out – if you like rock and […]
Spinning vinyl: The Go-Go’s
Winding down tonight after a busy day of work, and an evening of fellowship and food with Kevin Mason, I found myself back at home “spinning the black circle.” Tonight’s selections – the Mudcrutch Extended Play Live EP release that I just got in the mail, and after that, Talk Show by The Go-Go’s. Another […]

Consider this a followup to my post about the new Jules Shear album More that I posted here yesterday. But first, I need to tell you how I got into the music of Jules Shear. Some of my best friends are friends that I met who were working at record stores I went to frequently. […]
