new cds! new cds! oh happy day

went cd mad today at hmv... wanted to pick up the kraftwerk live double cd and maybe missy elliot, but ended up getting kraftwerk, royksopp, the new stars cd (49 freakin bucks!! stupid import pricing. last time this happened was with franz ferdinand, which i imported for the same price from HMV, feeling all smug and stuff thinking that no one in singapore, and subsequently no local publisher, would give a shit about the band. 3 weeks later i saw it at music junction going for $seventeen.90. i thought wrong, evidently), the debut cd by the magic numbers ("the record that 2005 is destined to be remembered for" -Mojo... with a cover sticker like that, how could you go wrong? *fingers -no pun intended- crossed*), and 2 older cds from jap band l'arc-en-ciel which i'd never been bothered to pick up before cos they were always goin for 50bucks each... but now they were goin for a much more sensible $18 (and japanese print too, whoo-hoo! not crappy taiwan reprint), cos of HMV's summer sale, so all is right with the world then.

so that's 6 (seven, if you wanna be fussy.) new albums for me to go and have a nice sitdown with then... now if more than half of them aren't shite, it'd be an afternoon well spent then. wish me luck.
