Only thing I have preordered are two copies of The Format’s “Boycott Heaven” because I impulsively bought the Zia variant before seeing the signed band variant too. Patiently waiting for Dashboard on the 1st and the impending 37 Everywhere repress.
I don't think I have anything preordered. I plan on picking up Ratboys and Joyce Manor on their tours edit: wait I lied, Charli XCX - Wuthering Heights
New Thrice deluxe and mwY live vol 2. I had the new alchemy index re-releases pre-ordered on 2 different sites, but they never shipped so i went and bought them last week at my local record store instead. Since DoubleDecker in Allentown (greatest shop of all time) closed down a few years ago, I've had to pivot to where i buy my records and finally settled on the shop 5 blocks from my house. They've been doing a great job of setting things aside and ordering anything i ask for, really. Going to take advantage of that more in the new year. Here's my list of acquisitions, not counting my Fiance's Aunt and my own dad giving me their entire collections. I'm slowly adding those to my discogs as i go through and clean them. This was a good year of collecting! 2025 Pick Ups: Thrice - The Alchemy Index Vols. I & II: Fire & Water Thrice - The Alchemy Index Vols.

According to Discogs I only bought 19 records this year. Which seems right. Don’t feel like counting last year or the year before but I know it’s WAY down.
My wife and I were talking about finances and she asked how much I spent on records this past year. "I don't know, mumble mumble some number..." To be fair this past year was less than previous years so there's that

Can't believe it's already time to start thinking about this... What is the one album you most want pressed / repressed in 2026? For me, it's No Motiv - Diagram For Healing. I still return to it frequently and next year it's turning 25.
need NIN to follow through on the promise of repressing their back-catalog. still need reissues/first-time releases of Year Zero, The Slip, and at this point all six Ghosts albums
