New Jersey/New York Area

Where in the world can I find a good store around here that sells CD's from less known bands for example like Overkill. I can't seem to find any of their albums at all. I really can't order online since I dont have a credit card ( my fault for being a bum ). Anyone from around the area know any places I can check out ?

Have you ever been to Vintage Vinyl in Fords, NJ? Best CD store not only in New Jersey, but in the entire known universe, IMHO. They have the best metal selection I have ever seen, if they don't have it then it doesn't exist!!! I grew up in Paramus so my brother and I used to drive down there just about every weekend to stock up on new stuff. Unfortunately, I live so far north in Jersey (If I spit I can hit the border with NY state) that a drive there is nearly 90 minutes long, so I can only get there once or twice a year at most.

you can check'em out online at www.vvinyl.com

What is the used cd selection like? That is off of exit 130?

i will check this out thanks freddy, 1/2 hour drive for me.

man according to the site that place is about 10 minutes away via the parkway

You mean neither of you guys have ever been to V.V.? Holy crap! You're gonna be in heaven when you see the metal section!!
The used CDs can be hit or miss, depends on what's come in recently when you visit. Sometimes I've scored five or six goodies out of the used bin in one trip, other times I can look thru every used CD in the store and not find a darn thing that floats my boat.
Let me know if you make any good scores! Happy to be of service!!

Fat Freddy you are the man! Thanks for telling me about this store. I have NEVER, NEVER seen a store with this much taste in my music ever. Maybe i haven't looked hard enough! I rocked it and bought myself 8 cd's. Takes like 30 minutes to get there but ill be taking my driving test in less then 2 weeks so ill drive thereon weekend when i have money. thanks again

Hahaha, I TOLD ya... that place is Metal Heaven on Earth aint it?? I wish I didn't live so far north in North Jersey cuz it's about a 90 minute ride from where I live now... so I only get there once or twice a year these days. I think I'm about due for a visit though!!

Are they open on Sundays? Could not find any hours on the site

I believe they are open on Sundays... or at least they used to be. My brother and I used to go there on Sunday afternoons all the time, but like I said, it's been awhile since I last visited...
