My company is sending me to West Palm Beach for work Sun-Friday. Can anyone recommend a record store near by worth visiting?
Thanks!
heh we should meet up! im in miami about an hour and 45 min away,and their are no record stores down here that cater to industrial here anymore.
Thanks x-noise. Maybe we can meet up? No stores eh? Sad state this world is coming to :(
Luke, X-Noise's collection is impressive.
This reminds me that I took some pictures of my collection after moving everything to my new home. Though not finished yet it is a boys`room with a lot of music and DVDs :-)
There really isnt anything in West Palm anymore. Closest you will find is http://www.respectablestreet.com that's a stretch. You will have to head into Broward county or Miami to find something.
Thanks Mm.
X noise is a demon buying CDs.
I'm in west palm.
All we have is Confusion Records in north palm.

I've found some ok stuff in there, some Click Click, old chemlab, lots of Fields of the Nephilim, old PIAS records. It's not worth the trouble though. The store is kept like some old packrat's garage, and when you finally do find something in the mess the owner wants to charge you $20 for a scratched up old record. Avoid.
40 mins south, in Ft. Lauderdale is Radio Active Records http://radio-active-records.blogspot.com/
They have a huge selection of new and used records as well as rare boxsets and limited release stuff. Last time i was there about a year ago they had the new Esplendor Geometrico album on vinyl, a new cd/lp set of Last Rights, the Severed Heads and LPD boxsets from VOD, Etc. I've walked out of there with stacks of used vinyl, bunch of old Controlled Bleeding, Skurpy Durpy, SPK, Lustmord's Zoetrope dvd, Whitehouse live '86 dvdr, etc.
Worth checking out if you like digging through crates of 80's-90's industrial/experimental/ebm. Not so much for brand new stuff.
It looks like Uncle Sams Music in Lauderhill finally closed. It's a shame, that used to be the major industrial store down here. At one time they had 3 stores, Pompano, Lauderhill, and Miami. Now it looks like just the miami location still exists.
15 years ago you could pick up wumpscut boxsets alongside ant-zen calendars, Coil import cd's, most of Numb's back catalog in the used bin for cheap, Biopsy, VAC, :W:, Project Pitchfork, Metropolis records teeshirts. Too bad they couldn't sustain their business model.
Donno if the Miami shop is worth checking out or not, haven't been there. Maybe if you're in the area. http://unclesamsmusic.net/home/
There's also http://sweatrecordsmiami.com/ but it's mostly hipster stuff.
aww thanks nader for the kind words! hey dissecting i used to shop at uncle sams along time ago,its a shame the shop in lauderdale shut down. hey siglo i know this is a little off topic,but are you on face book? maybe we can meet up when your down here!

I went to confusion records. Everything you said
Was to the tee. I did find a cabaret Voltaire 2x12"
Of "Crackdown" and a couple OMD 12"s.
The guy was knowledgeable. We talk about
The Cabs TG etc. The store was a disaster
To the consumer. The owner seemed to know
Where everything was.

I'm a pretty boring dude anyway. I can talk music
Or life insurance products :)
