Surface Noise | Latest Freestyle

Sep 15, 2025

55 min

Working off the rust, our vinyl enthusiasts have much, much more to work out during the FREESTYLE following the latest episode of SURFACE NOISE.

Interscope jumps into the One-Step game with a reissue of Dr. Dre's classic album "The Chronic". Will a Chris Bellman mastering job finally unlock the audiophilia of this masterpiece? Or is this the latest cash grab in this competitive vinyl space?

The panel also discusses bands/artists that have never had an authorized live album. A shorter list than you would think, and the list is full of surprises. Unwrap the answers, only on the latest FREESTYLE!

Surface Noise | Why We Collect, What We Collect + Oasis Thoughts

Sep 11, 2025

1hr 50 sec

Did you miss us? Maybe. Likely. Not everyone.

Jump back IN to the latest in vinyl talk that isn't for the faint of heart. This episode of SURFACE NOISE asks our rogue gallery of record collectors why we collect, what we collect. Plus we share our experiences seeing the reunited Oasis as they hit North America on the "Live '25" tour.

Sprinkle in some baby spoilers on Spinal Tap 2, and heartbreak on broken jewel cases, and that recipe makes up this latest 'sode of SURFACE NOISE. Taste test, required.

Concert Buddie | Mind of the Record Collector: Cosmic Brian

Aug 27, 2025

54 min

Our latest episode comes to you from the Cosmic Realm: an alternate dimension from a different time and place. There are no Klingons, no Kree, no Skrulls, no Chitauri here. Instead, we have a great guest from this other worldly sphere - Cosmic Brian - on this latest episode of "Mind of the Record Collector".

Ever since making his first Vinyl Community-inspired YouTube video back in 2019, Brian has been a force for good vibes and good music in the Vinyl Community. When he's not cratedigging for more tunes, he'll be talking on his Cosmic Vinyl channel about his collection ranging from psych, to fuzz rock, to just about every genre there is. Like other collectors, the Cosmic One has other interests and things he collects including his other passion, comic books.

Elsewhere in the 'sode Brian shares his own record collecting journey from the start to present day, why he's a big fan of the local St. Louis record scene, and what band he would reunite for one gig only.

Set your phaser on FUN and listen in on the latest "Mind of the Record Collector" here on Vinyl Community Podcasts! 👽

Surface Noise | When One is Enough + Beatles Anthology 4 News

Aug 21, 2025

59 min

Is too many a good thing, a bad thing, or somewhere in between? For the latest discussion on SURFACE NOISE, our crackpot crew of vinylists discuss when having more than one is (or isn't) a good thing.

But first we touch on (briefly) another Beatles release: The Anthology 4 Boxset. Just in time, or just another cash grab: YOU DECIDE!

The one. The only. SURFACE NOISE.

Surface Noise | Latest Freestyle

Aug 18, 2025

44 min

Winding down the latest episode of SURFACE NOISE is this here FREESTYLE segment, where our panelists just can't get enough of the G.G. Allin talk. Following a couple deep breaths, the conversation turns to a deeper discussion on the discography of the band Suicide, and somehow, someway, the Beatles Mono box set re-enters the VCP orbit (don't ask us how). Naturally, the conversation has to include the biggest news drop of the week: the latest Taylor Swift record (the kids call it 'TS12'). Is Taylor the greatest self marketer of our time? Probably.

All this and a deep dive into Guy Ritchie and Madonna movies (wish we were making this up), only on the latest FREESTYLE, courtesy of the gents of SURFACE NOISE.

Surface Noise | Stone Cold Classics + Sell Me This Record

Aug 14, 2025

1hr 8 min

Welcome back to Seam Split City! Taste is relative, but cold is cold. And nothing is more cold than Stone Cold (right Jim Ross?). Our panel of devoted vinylists will share what they feel are essential characteristics of a "Stone Cold Classic", plus share some examples from their collections. From there we take a cue from the "Wolf of Wall Street Himself", Jordan Belfort, with a segment called "Sell Me This Record". Would you buy these after these impassioned pitches? Maybe not.

All this and MORE on SURFACE NOISE. There's only one.
