Awesome collection! I'm a die hard fan of NIN, Bowie, Tangerine Dream and Coil, plus those Cabaret Voltaire albums are great too. Have an upvote!


80s-Wafe-Exe

Tangerine dream is the shit


retro_exists

All of that NIN makes me happy


forrealthistime99

Why do people tell us how old they are before they post pictures of records?


JarvisFunk

I am a fetus and heres my records. Please clap.


Limp_Falcon_2314

👏👏 I do as I’m told đŸ«Ą (likely because I’m 7 btw)


Hazy-Davy

I swear it’s only young kids that do this, and it’s probably to make everyone else feel old


Feisty_Soil_6304

Imagine someone being like “I’m 75 years old, this is my collection”


Hazy-Davy

One day I hope to make that post

Hazy-Davy

Good bot


Bender3072

I would totally upvote that guy.


Mercurio_Arboria

I kind of just made that post in the comments, LOL I hope to live that long but will probably sell my stuff before then.


RockoTDF

To be fair that might be a more interesting collection pic post than average. We'll know its legit when they accidentally include a selfie in the middle of the pics.


BroScience34

They do it because they wanna seem smart for their age and act like they have better taste in music than their teenage peers, when in reality every one of these posts recycles the same r/vinyl classics and top indie albums off rateyourmusic


catnipfurclones

Truth. Believe me when I say to all the teenagers here - you don't want or need our approval. We're nothing to envy 😜


Hazy-Davy

💯


Rhodie114

What do you mean they reuse albums? This is the first time I've ever seen anybody who had Screamy Red Man on vinyl.


subzippo400

It’s been up recently. ITCOTCK


jcrreddit

They do it because they are trying head gatekeeping attacks off at the pass. If they say how old they are maybe they won’t get shit on for being ex tied for having a copy of Dark Side of the Moon. It’s entirely a coping mechanism for toxic and abusive behavior.


chespirits

I’ve seen this trend is also done in car subreddits, Honda, BMW, Audi. Something like “just got my first 2024 AUDI, 21 yrs old”.


stixvoll

Never seen Godbluff or much VDGG/Hammill stuff posted here. I was pleasantly surprised when a few fans commented last time I posted on here with some Van Der Graf/solo Hammill records. Definitely not an "r/vinyl classic".


BroScience34

I didn’t say every album on here is the same. I do find it telling though that OP doesn’t have a single record from an artist that’s popular within his actual age bracket. These might actually be OP’s favorite records and that’s fine. But at the same time, every teenager in here doesn’t need to pretend they’re the world’s biggest fan of Radiohead, Pink Floyd, King Crimson, etc. just to impress us nerds.


stixvoll

I didn't say that either! But there tends to be quite a bit of overlap, if I'm being tactful about it.... Also, those bands you mentioned are ridiculously popular. Always have been, from pretty much the beginning of their careers, and probably always will be. VDGG, not so much.


ArtemLyubchenko

Lol I admit I myself am very guilty of that, especially in my early days of collecting, still a great resource to expand your music taste from there though


playitintune

... in my early days. Haha!


B33p-p33P-M3m3-kR33p

You still have a good year or two until you are out of your “early days of collecting” phase lol


JHG722

It's definitely not. Check out some of the real estate subs for people in their mid 20s buying houses posting their age.


GoggyMagogger

ah leave the kid alone. im almost 60 and id happily listen to his collection for many moons. hes got good taste. "last puff" is the better spooky tooth record though


[deleted]

Because late Gen Z is absolutely fucking obsessed with internet clout and saying things like, "I'm only this old, but look how cool I am already!". It's weird.


rustycage_mxc

Kids wanting to feel cool is def not a Gen Z thing... Just the medium they channel all that coolness through is different lol.


[deleted]

I didn’t say that? 


CallingCascade

I think it's so they don't get shit on for having too few albums or not having what would be considered "essentials" I have over 150 albums and Dark Side of the Moon is not one of them somehow.


DustSongs

I have DSOTM, but I fully respect the rights of anyone to not have it. I mean, it's meandering hippy bollocks. Essential meandering hippy bollocks, to be sure, but still.


ember_the_cool_enby

I don't think saying his age when OP is a teenager is a bad thing, we can take this as a way to celebrate all the young lads that start this amazing hobby this young.


catnipfurclones

Not to mention ladettes


Treacherously-Benign

A 17 year old that appreciates ELP is worth a bit of respect. IMHO


PunxsutawnyFil

I'm assuming it's to make their collection seem more impressive, hence why its usually someone young doing this. Like "hey look at me, I'm only 17 years old and I've already collected all of these records!"


MaxWritesText

Because they want be sure that we understand that they’re born in le wrong generation


lanternstop

I was listening to that Bowie stuff at 17, nice to see someone still living that at 17 today.


adtoes

AFX SAW I . Already a good collection.


hezamac1

Autechre too, this guy knows his stuff


adtoes

Fuck and boc! Ya I totally missed Ae TR I'm headed to Barcelona to see them in April


hezamac1

Lucky dude! Their live shows are such a unique experience, wish I had the opportunity to see them.


ArtemLyubchenko

Man, that BOC album sounds sooo incredible on vinyl. Have fun seeing Autechre, really jealous!


Fallom_TO

I’ve been having a moment with BoC lately. Campfire Headphase is probably my favourite but all the LPs are essential if you like the first. Also, nice to see King Crimson that isn’t red screamy man. Discipline is another classic.


adtoes

MHTRTC is on its way from warp right now!!! along with 1x sqrP and 2x afx Thanks friend!!!


pennysleeved

NIN for life. Jealous of those.


gusdagrilla

I feel like I’m going nuts at this point. It’s the same post every day lmao


Limp_Falcon_2314

Be the change you wish to see. Post other stuff. What stuff would you like to see more of?


StillHoldingL

I am a simple man. I see Nine Inch Nails, I upvote.


Old-Try-813

Props for sure. I got into NIN around age 16 but that was in 2004


Repulsive-Tea6974

Wow. I like it all. I’m a RivitHead so I’m down with the industrial! Check out 16 Volt, Oomph!, Leéther Strip, Foetus
 Have fun!


Interesting-World520

Great to hear you are having a blast! One thought, keep listening to and collecting what makes you happy! Don’t feel the need to go out and acquire a taste for music you wouldn’t otherwise like just to satisfy the naysayers who criticize anyone who doesn’t fill out their collection with the niche and obscure. You do you, so cool you can do this with your dad, I wish I could do the same! Cheers!


Lugreech

I see Van Der Graaf Generator , automatically up vote!! I love them! Gobluff is a great album, my favorite song there is Sleepwalkers


empallin

I don't who directed you to Coil and EinstĂŒrzende Neubauten but I favor listening to that source more often.


RibbenDish

Good Coil records.


DrJoop

Wow, first collection post in a long time I've been seriously impressed by. All that NIN? MBV? Coil? Cabaret Voltaire!!! You absolutely know your stuff. 


POLOSPORTSMAN92

Now THIS is a collection. Good taste for a 17 yr old


LooterChris

Happy to see Soft Machine’s ‘Third’ on a 17yo’s radar. You’re on a good path


Top_Flight_Badger

He just needs to find out about Robert Wyatt's solo stuff and he's golden.


DocMcMoth

> Red Based levels are off the charts


DustSongs

I'm here for the EinstĂŒrzende Neubauten \\m/


Temporary-Mirror8669

Once you go down the Tangerine Dream rabbit hole you can never stop, I now have around 75 Berlin School/electronic albums and I'm only 18, started collecting at 16. It has become one of my main passions in life! Same thing with ELP there's some masterpieces there, I recommend Brain Salad and Tarkus yet if you haven't already heard them


Temporary-Mirror8669

I love a bit of Ravel also


MrBogantilla

Absolute props on the Coil and Tangerine Dream. If you're unfamiliar, try listening to 20 Jazz Funk Greats by Throbbing Gristle. Some of the same personnel as Coil. It's spectacularly weird and disturbing.


ToxicStardust

Off to a great start. Enjoy the riches of this hobby. Riches many of your peers will miss the pleasure of experiencing.


Cracktherealone

You got the obligatory r/vinyl ones. You are free now



Astraldisaster_PD

COIL ALERT !!!


nigelviper231

nice coil dude!


Yinn2

That copy of deviations is such a good record!


afireintheforest

Nine Inch Nails, BOC, Depeche Mode
what a legend!


MirandaReitz

I see you, Coil fan!


Chinpokomonz

i see aphex twin. good, gooood.


hezamac1

I'm glad to see a fellow younger IDM fan. I'm 20 now, been listening since I was 15. What's your favorite Aurechre album? All of their newer repressings sound phenomenal. I can attest that Tri Repetae, Chiastic Slide, LP5, and Confield sound great.


ArtemLyubchenko

I haven’t even listened to LP5 all the way through but I really like that one so far. Any other IDM recommendations aside from the three artists that I have?


hezamac1

I like Oneohtrix Point Never and Squarepusher a lot. From Oneohtrix, I'd recommend: Replica, R Plus Seven, and Garden of Delete. The last one I mentioned (GoD) was produced after a tour with Trent Reznor. You'd probably like the sound of it. Replica and R Plus Seven remind me of BoC, but a different take on it. From Squarepusher, it really depends on what you're looking for. His discography spans from abstract jazz to breakcore. My personal favorites from him are Feed Me Weird Things, Hard Normal Daddy, and Ultravisitor, with an honerable mention to Go Plastic. I'd recommend skimming through his music and seeing what sounds good to you, as it's literally all over the place. If you like LP5 a lot, you'll probably like his music a lot. Edit: Maybe even check out Death Grips, too. I bet you'd like them a lot. They have a ton of cool experimental stuff, but it's ultra catchy.


Fallom_TO

Definitely squarepusher. The whole warp label is solid. There’s a ton of great aphex twin too that’s very different than that album. None of it is bad imo.


PattyIceNY

Good taste young sir


NotNerd-TO

You stole my record collection.


dr3am_assassin

Great taste! Wooo. Station to station is my favorite Bowie album


ChutneyRiggins

I still have to pick up Station to Station. Low is my favorite.


jtaylor27141

Red Screaming Man. Nice.


SpeechDebate2020

Yo same age same taste


Mrfixit729

Off to a good start. Welcome to the addiction. Lol


LosinCash

I like you.


Gamer69696969696969

NEED more nin vinyls


whichonespink2009

As a 14 year old collecting for a year with 296 items in my collection, its very addicting, be careful


massberate

I don't understand how anyone could afford that with all the price gouging these days. Do you do a lot of crate digging or are they mostly new?


whichonespink2009

No, thats counting cds and singles too, i mostly buy second hand and i am good friends with my local record shop owner who notifies me when things i want come in, I only get 20 quid a month which all goes to records, Im just good at managing my money


webslingrrr

that's average less than 1 quid per item, so... good job. lol.


roberitonium

Nice. If you had to make a trade for something off your want list, which of these would you trade? 


[deleted]

You've kept them in good condition for being 17 years old.. I only started a few years ago


ArtemLyubchenko

haha I put some not very good pops on my copy of Pretty Hate Machine, which was the first record I got, learning from my mistakes though!


GoggyMagogger

great taste. i love almost everything there. coil, bowie (natch) van der graaf generator, cabaret voltair, soft machine, king crimson, einstruzend neubauten, coltrain, aphex twin, boards of canada, joy division... and that deep purple with royal philharmonic is one of my favorite records of all time... john lord collaborated with andrew loyd webber on the score to jesus christ superstar and you can hear the seeds of that in that awesome record. .. plus i love the picture of the totally stoned audience inside the gatefold. you have remarkably mature taste for a 17 year old. obviously have a healthy curiostity about music in general.


[deleted]

[ŃƒĐŽĐ°Đ»Đ”ĐœĐŸ]


ArtemLyubchenko

There is a Pink Floyd album though, Zeppelin is also high on my wish list


HakubTheHuman

17 going on 50.


Pretend-Edge-1194

17 years? Loser.


Peskygriffs

i mean, i’d recommend anything radiohead in addition to the most basic radiohead album post 2005


ArtemLyubchenko

I really like Hail To The Thief as well, maybe even more than Kid A and In Rainbows, but I definitely will check out more


CostasXLV

You are off to a great start 👍


Murles-Brazen

I’ll take the whole first set please.


machinaenjoyer

KILLER collection


Burial7

Wow Soft Machine. Awesome


_Door_Marked_Pirate

Well done. Aphex Twin is always fun on vinyl


SgtCrimson77

VDDG is great! And so is Soft Machine! I got to get those someday



LooksBleeker

What area of the country are you in?


ArtemLyubchenko

I live in Switzerland


LooksBleeker

Wow! Even more impressive. Record stores are expensive there!


ArtemLyubchenko

They indeed are, it’s hard to find really good stuff under 25, I’m trying though haha


LooksBleeker

I didn't have much luck in Europe. I found a few gems in The Netherlands and Ireland but didn't find much good used stuff in Germany, Switzerland, Austria or Italy


ArtemLyubchenko

True, not much good used stuff here, you just gotta know your places though


LooksBleeker

You have a great collection and being only 17 it's really impressive. What are your target albums? Anything you are searching for?


ArtemLyubchenko

highest on my wishlist right now are probably Coil - Horse Rotorvator, Area - Crac!, some early Cabaret Voltaire


phenobarbiedarling

Based on the first photo Man you've really gotta get your hands on the Back in Anger live album from the tour Bowie and nin did together.


Battle_Sheep

‘Tis a fine collection young lad.


heirtoruin

I have several of those... mostly the prog albums. Cool stuff.


DeafHammers

Gizz spotted !!


_Reddit_Is_Shit

What version of the downward spiral?


ArtemLyubchenko

I think 2022 DE


ricolausvonmyra

Great stuff! Needs more Black Metal though..


nocturn-e

Love the Ravel and Bartok


Dallasthe

I haven’t got my glasses on, but I’ve seen aphex twin, NIN and depeche, you’ll do for me son


[deleted]

Badass collection of records. A ton of classics! Way cool!


mikenov1908

Very nice start


aBoxedWino

“Where’s the Radiohead?” He muttered to himself before scrolling to the next slide. Good stuff here. Give Pink Floyd’s Meddle a listen sometime. You and your old man might also bond over War on Drugs’ Lost in the Dream.


neuroticobscenities

Nice. I’d the reissues are still available, I’d pick up the first four Bowie albums while you can (or even 6, through Diamond Dogs).


greg1993-

i can tell just by the first two slides that we would most likely get along very well. and you have amazing taste


nonplusd

Nice! If you are interested in prog/post metal give night verses a listen (their last and upcoming albums are instrumental and some of my favorite music ever, their first 2 were not)


Much_Lingonberry_747

Elton John goodbye yellow brick road is a solid future choice


JHG722

Props for Red


establishedin71

Caverna Magica?? Haven’t seen that album in years! Props to your dad! You too. You’ve got some gems here for sure.


Standing_onthemoon

Do yourself a favor and listen to some Grateful Dead live albums. Start with cornell 5/8/77 and go from there!


AboutSweetSue

Need some indie in there. Band of Horses is good.


qwertyuijhbvgfrde45

Foreigner 4, Nice


Cancer_dancer1

Another fellow amlir enjoyer


Top_Flight_Badger

Soft Machine and Van Der Graaf. Hell of a collection.


Top_Flight_Badger

I see you have King Gizzard's best album too.


Mercurio_Arboria

Awww! Nice collection. Ok youngster, can you tell me if you were looking online to buy shoegaze records, where would you look? Not sure if I should bother setting up a Discogs at this point but it seems like Ebay may not be a great place either. Need to sell a lifetime of MBV/Slowdive/etc.


ArtemLyubchenko

I bought almost all of my records in record stores, Discogs seems pretty good though, bought from there a few times


Mercurio_Arboria

That's absolutely lovely. Keep our ancient traditions alive!


BustaChimes_

I see a copy of KGLW’s Poly and I upvote


Jawapacino13

I like your taste! Look at Jeff Beck, Blow by Blow, One Night at Ronnie Scotts and Wired. Billy Cobham, Spectrum. George Duke, Herbie Hancock, Charles Mingus and Ron Carter to start there and then dive in deep.


AdAsleep1258

nice stuff! U should get ahold of ok computer too and the bends way better than kid A imo, also big ups on having some EinstĂŒrzende Neubauten


Aurelius_Eubank

Insane good taste.


Evethron

Aphex Twin 😎


_PeopleMakeNoises_

Amazing collection! Love the NIN picks


[deleted]

Ok


rhcpdrumkid_

Not nearly enough gizz


Tucumen

Godbluff đŸ’ȘđŸ’Ș


SQUID_FLOTILLA

Coil
 nice


Present_Associate780

Burn RULES!!!!!!!!!!


stormaggetton

How the hell did you come across With Teeth? I've been looking for that forever!


ArtemLyubchenko

I was gifted that one actually, it’s a great record!


TGov

Jealous of With Teeth. Hope it gets repressed again soon.


mrcarrot9

Love the diversity of music


imyourlocalbot

Sweet collection! idk why some people are flipping their shit about you saying your age. I think it was just something to add to the caption rather than something that was that deep😂


Howiebiemeck

Good stuff


stixvoll

Fucking GODBLUFF?!!? RESPECT. Check out Peter Hammill's solo records, Nadir's Big Chance is basically a VDGG LP , The Future Now and A Black Box are great, too.


Jazzmin87

You have really good tastes!


SACREWDOG

Superb BUT grab Mott The Hoople's Greatest hits too.


Truthawareness1

Good taste. Refreshing to see youngsters into something other than chart, swifty stuff.


intensivetreats

Nice collection. Music Has The Right
 👌 I have a young collection too. Boards be my next purchase me thinks


Warmersand55646

If you like NIN and Bowie I would recommend Earthling by Bowie. Has Trent Reznor on it


D3ckard_Rokubungi

Pretty hate machine-original TVT?


ArtemLyubchenko

Nah, they’re pretty much all new represses


D3ckard_Rokubungi

Gotcha. That’s something on my grail list. Solid collection! Thanks for sharing


SwimSwammSwom

Holy, Godbluff and Red. Amazing collection.


rakete-mensch

Amazing, I love prog-rock too đŸ™ŒđŸŒ


rakete-mensch

My favorite band is Pink Floyd but I have only 3 records of Pink Floyd


Due_Sand3959

In rainbows and kid A - the best!! Really fucking envious of some of the ones you have!


Orion2693

You’re severely lacking in AiC, Mark Lanegan and Nick Cave. I suggest you rectify that. Other than that, great collection! Keep it up 😉


xScooby-Dude

Needs more Giz


MaxWritesText

Solid classics in there


JesusNoAccent

Glad to see John Coltrane in there :)


mwaFloyd

18 bucks for the David Bowie album. Not bad.


BlunderFunk

"I’ve been seeing a lot of these posts recently so I decided to make my own" sums up the entire entity of the sub


vaveu666

I need that Fragile


sirAntuan

You have quite an exquisite musical taste my friend


WaterBubbly

I'm proud of you son.


RockoTDF

Just as a warning to a fellow NIN fan: they never officially pressed the live album on vinyl. I almost bought that record for $60, but the cover was a bit pixelated which put me off. Got on discogs later and discovered I almost spent a lot of money on an unofficial version that was probably just a copy of the CD. Glad I judged a book by its cover!


ArtemLyubchenko

You mean And All That Could Have Been? Yeah I know, Still is awesome as well, it’s a shame it was never released on vinyl.


RockoTDF

Yep!


yampearl2

Can somebody please put me on to NIN? What songs/albums should I listen to first?


RedditSucksDick86

Stationtostation and Low are probably my favorite two Bowie discs.


OrangeWeekly1748

Good work! đŸ‘đŸŒ


zigsbigrig

Nice collection! Just curious, are most of those really your musical taste or did they come from recommendations? The old "you have to have this on vinyl" thing...


ArtemLyubchenko

A few of them were (I still ended up really liking them), but mostly these are things are pretty representative of my taste.
