@klaxzy@klaxzy.net Yeah, it’s a CD from my cabinet. It’s old, though, I got it when buying CDs was just a normal thing to do. 😅
It’s not necessarily my “mission” to collect this stuff, but I still buy new CDs these days. I just like having something physical, I like reading the booklet, I enjoy the artwork. Guess I’m just old-fashioned.
But it has become rare. The last one was “Leitmotif” by Dredg about 1.5 years ago. And that’s an old record as well (1998), I just never got around to buying it back then.
Okay, I admit it. Maybe I do collect this shit a little bit. 🤣
