Tokyo Blade - 1000 Men Strong

done...    

over $35 for a vinyl LP. That costs as much as my Bathory CD's in 2001 from HMV,!
No way I could afford a t-shirt too and it looks pretty nice.
Rare for a band to sell shirts also in larger than the standard Large-only size, so wil just pick one up when they tour.

I looked online for a cheaper cost for the LP , but even the CD versions cost just as much (and they have bonus tracks).

I still don't have every Tokyo record, but since they don't sell them (only CD's), will eventually have to try Discogs for the few I am missing (got everything downloaded awhile ago, but when I like a band, THEN I will spend money. I do NOT buy digital files. They are intangible goods.).

I ordered the band's anthology double cd on amazon.

I did so because it has some songs from night of the blade, which is impossible for me to acquire.

Are you talking about Warrior of the Rising Sun? If so, you've got pretty much all that you need to hear by Tokyo Blade. The only issue is that if you want to hear Alan Marsh singing on the Night of the Blade material, then you'll have to buy the 1998 reissue.

By the way, Tokyo Blade's full-length albums are very easy -- and affordable -- to acquire on vinyl. Due to many successful scores, I had four copies of Night of the Blade.

man there is no metal around here.

u have no clue what I go through to acquire metal cds that are normally to be confiscated by authorities.

I pick anything I can.

I see that you're from Lebanon; understandable.

Also, I was talking about checking eBay and other online music stores.

I remember on metal boards years ago, people griped about how expensive metal CDs were at HMV.

online orders can also be hard at times.
