AAAAAAHHHHH!!!! PAAAAAIIIINNNN!!!!!! I broke my hand yesterday because of the hate comments I get all the time. I was so angry that I punched a hole in my computer. Please don't hate me, dear mar
Not to mention it helps put people onto underground and well-known music alike. It adds interest for some viewers to want to buy vinyl records in support of record stores and businesses.
Lets be real, this lucky dog got that box set for free under the condition that he makes a video about it. It's gotta be half the reason the vinyl update is back. Either way, I'm stoked. I love a vinyl update and would make video solely about this box set if I could get one for free too.
Most Gizz records nowadays come in paper sleeves for the environment, actually. They have also been pressing them with recycled wax and at green factories too!
Never seen Fantano from this angle. I feel like he’s an angry relief teacher about to start shouting at one of us for barely even whispering in class. Lmao
It makes sense that infest the rats’ nest didn’t come in plastic since the whole album is about preserving the earth, so it’d be pretty weird for them to wrap each vinyl in plastic that is killing the world, that’s a pretty cool gimmicks if they did that intentionally
The most gratifying aspect of the video for me is the way Anthony treats albums & packages. Every move and touch looks like he practised it for hours, and that probably is the truth
That finale!!! Omg dude! That is literally the crown jewel of the “golden egg” to ever enter my collection. You are so lucky to own the entire Mars Volta discography! Wow! I didn’t even know that was even released. I feel like an amateur! Please give us another vinyl update sometime soon. It’s my favorite series.
I was literally thinking about your old vinyl videos just recently. Last week I got to go to a record shop for the first time since 2019 and it made me remember just how many recommendations I got from your record collection videos, so I'm very happy for this to be back
The mars Volta box is missing the Frances the mute single that also has the widow live on the B side and it’s missing scab dates but scab dates was a live album so it doesn’t really matter too too much unless they did a mtv unplugged or something like that
Awww yes. The Yoko Ono Plastic Ono Band record is absolutely amazing. I was jamming "Touch Me" all the time when I was like 15. Say what you will about Yoko, she can make some mindblowing experimental rock when she wants to.
I saw the mars volta on the thumbnail and had to peep the vid. I was an unfortunate fan who had to shell out $500 for the collection but it had to be done. Having the entire discography in one go fresh and untouched was too good an opportunity. So glad to hear your positive blessings on Mars Volta. Rock on Fantano.
I kind of love this. This is honestly super comforting. It's like watching some sort of podcast. It's a good way to find new music/pressings of albums, or to just be reminded of music. You already know I'm going back through the Mars Volta discog after this. I'd love for these to be a semi-regular thing; not too regular, though, so there's a good amount of records to go through in each one. These longer videos are really nice, and I really enjoyed this. 6/10
The Mars Volta box sits at a 45 degree angle in the black base, the corner slides into a nook in the bottom cardboard bit. Looks really cool when put on display, especially with the art on the back.
@@mathiasklein8143 I'm yet to try that one out but perhaps I will.

This man brought the vinyl update back just to flex that Mars Volta boxset.

Never forget. Pitchfork gave 'Frances the Mute' a 2.0 rating.

I’ve heard recycled vinyl pressings sound bad-how do these sound? Has the technology come along to the point where recycled vinyl records sound good?

Amputechture would be considered as good as Frances the Mute if it were a concept album. change my mind.

I love how much fun you're having here. I also enjoy getting new records, looking at the artwork and whatnot.
I never noticed how big his arms were, like DAMN.

hopefully he'll figure out that the lid to the mars volta box set doubles as a stand and you place it in by one of the corners
I was hoping it would dawn on him in the video because that stand really adds to the already amazing packaging
So happy this series came back. I love hearing the Melon talk about records and just find the format relaxing.
Hoping we’ll get a Mars Volta tier list or Worst to Best, I’ve always wondered about Fantano’s opinions about their discography
I'd shit myself he did that!
He actually has one already
You know it's a good episode when you see a Bad Brains vinyl first up!!
I could study, but I chose to watch a 35 year old guy open records for 45 minutes.
this is one of my favourite vids of him in the last 2 years, its such a refreshing video
I can finally die in peace now
Thanks melon!

I can’t believe you gave Dunkey’s new album a 7. It’s a damn outrage
On Plastic Ono Band - ‘Want some wild, whacked-out, challenging rock music, look no further than SOME tracks off this album’. What glowing praise!
omg cant wait to play these on my crobsley
Awww yes. The Yoko Ono Plastic Ono Band record is absolutely amazing. I was jamming "Touch Me" all the time when I was like 15. Say what you will about Yoko, she can make some mindblowing experimental rock when she wants to.
When you see Fantano wearing a shirt instead of the flannel, it's getting real.
for the mars volta box - the top cap doubles as a stand. There is a groove on the insert of the top cap where the box can sit in it diagonally
maybe you should get the Crazy Frog album, really spice up your own discography.
bruh, this video opened me up to so much good music, thank you!
Congrats on being the first “Strand Type Reviewer” Melon.

It really bothers me that melon didn't get how to set up the Realidad de los sueños base, to the correct presentation of the boxset.
I’m loving this new format, it really accentuates your thickness!
