I guess that’s why my 90s/00s collection is all stuff like Peaceville, Earache and Candlelight.
I used to buy all my extreme stuff from either Alice's Records or Supernal Music.

I'd give them a ring each month and order a few things. That used to be enjoyable as both Alex at Supernal and the lady at Alice's (Can't remember her name...i doubt it was Alice) really knew their stuff and were happy to chat about music.
