If you're hunting for vinyl, this is where to go: great selection, huge catalog, great prices,…read moreawesome finds. About a year ago I decided to try to rebuild the core of the record collection I had in the 80's. I started with flea markets and picked up a good album here and there. But things only really took off when I found this site. They've got thousands of records, many for under 10 bucks. The owner is a great guy, friendly, and easy to deal with. He once emailed me just to let me know that I had purchased the same album twice. The second one was for my son, but he didn't want me to have 2 of the same in case it was a mistake. Who does that? Seriously, check this site out. Make sure you use the search in the top right to look for bands, or albums, or artists. Of course you could spend over an hour and go through the whole site like I did the first time I saw it. :)

A business within a business-- Divorce Records main place of purchase is held within Agricola Street's "Lost and Found". As a fine source of independent music, the label is dedicated to both local and international talent that strays from the usual. Peek through the selection for some stellar anti-industry music variety. Vinyl and CDs are for sale, and allow an opportunity to acquire new tastes without the commercial bloat. The label has been open since the 90s (1999.. but still!) and in indie music world, thats a substantial amount of time. Its admirable to see Haligonians putting it out there, and pushing through the waste that IS the music industry. There's lots of great music out there, and Divorce is a local label to provide us with a taste.

Not only does this company provide an outlet for local bands to be represented, Divorce also delves into the distribution side of things; bringing in unhinged artistic albums to this seaside town and offering them to the masses, via Lost & Found. Laura P. is in the right giving Divorce a send up "Yelp Style." This label and distribution corps, although relatively small, is well known on the indie Halifax scene and is respected as a purveyor of sovereign sound; music existing outside of the trendy pervasive airwaves. Shop Divorce's selection while perusing Lost & Found's treasures and eccentricities. If you're interesting in armchair surfing, scan their offerings via the world wide web. Their website is informative and provides distribution details as well as signed artists. Divorce ain't no sad custody battle; they've got their ducks in a row and enough solid sound to rock the socks off of any grandma.

My first experience with Taz was when staff refused to order me a fairly big indie release in 2023…read morebecause "their suppliers didn't have it." As I type this review I see on Taz.com that there is currently one copy of that exact record in Halifax and one in Bedford. Not sure why Taz refused my $45 when I was happy to wait for the album to arrive in store. My next experience with Taz was very similar. I pre-ordered another record on Taz.com and when release day arrived I anxiously awaited a phone call or email. I heard nothing, so I checked online to see if I had misremembered the release date. There were 9 copies on the shelves waiting to be bought. I called the store and asked if my order was ready, the employee was completely baffled. While the staff did the right thing and (I assume) took a copy off the shelf for me, this is a pretty major oversight. I had received my confirmation email before I hung up the phone. Staff at the Halifax location are truly some of the most miserable people I have had the misfortune of doing business with. I have no desire to return, although I have had fantastic experiences with Sunrise Records in Dartmouth so I will continue to build my 400-500 strong record collection. Taz records is the enshittification of vinyl and media shopping incarnate. Record stores are going the way of Blockbuster and HMV and it is because of poor management and misguided ownership, only interested in making a quick buck from a dying industry.

I did not attend the shindig, but heard the festivities were groovy and schmoozy, with a touch of bop and pop to boot. I took a little jaunt in today to check out this greatly welcomed music shop. The space is stark, more gallery chic though than bland, with chalk walls as a backdrop to midnight hued music stands. The vinyl selection was grand, featuring what seemed to be mainly newbie merch and not vintage/used offerings. There were also tons of CDs of the new and used variety. I sussed out She & Him, The Buzzcocks and Television, as I enjoyed the clean crisp space. Downfall was, that the dude at the counter didn't even acknowledge my friend and I as he yapped away on the tele. A little nod or a hand wave would have been sufficient salutation, but he didn't even muster that - must have been a seriously serious call, maybe Obama or someone like that on the line. There's no sign out front yet, so don't blink or you'll miss it. This shop is hip and happening, but loses a mark for customer service. Maybe next time we'll be able to bump this baby up to a 4.

As most of you know I have a sick obsession with vinyl, so you can only imagine my excitement when…read moreI stumbled on a new record shop last week on my morning walk. This hidden gem is Obsolete Records. Located in the North End of Halifax, Obsolete Records is a small open concept shop, decorated in lots of local art . The lay out is super clean and really well organized so it was easy to find what I was looking for. I was really impressed when I walked in to find they carry so much local music .Not only do they carry tons of local 45's but they also have a large selection on and rare records that you may not find anywhere else. My only beef with the place is the staffing. I'm not one to give a bad review however I was the only customer in the shop , was in there for over a half hour and had several records in hand . Not once was I acknowledge or asked if I needed help finding what I was looking for . When I finally asked if they had a copy of a record I've been searching for, the staff behind the counter , who was reading a book acted as if it was a chore to look up the 45 on his data base. I felt that my overall experience with the place would have been far more enjoyable with a simple " Hi, can I help you with anything ? " But I digress ... Overall this place is pretty great and their prices are reasonable. It's definitely a fierce competitor ..let's just hope their customer service amps up so it will be unstoppable !

I was lost, and then I was found…read more This is a special space of altered frocks, vintage finds, and a flavour of locally made. Eclectic musings come together to form Lost & Found's fashionably homemade North End boutique . The shop's mood is quiet and thoughtful, just as its clothes. Music is easy, and the store keeper sews away in a corner wooden chair. Piecing through the assorted racks, I become awe struck by the profuse selection of gorgeous things. Most times I am able to edit down final selections before the efforts of the fitting room; however, this was not the case. The clothing variety is of impeccable taste, as every item on display is hand picked, and/or altered with special detailing. And with such reasonable pricing-- it all seems too good to be true. (A large rack dedicated to post-season sales provides some gorgeous steals!) Clothing is displayed on thick wooden hangers, and well managed framework; the result is chic and polished confines. Divorce Records is an added bonus to the Lost & Found experience. Peek through this Halifax based label's selection for some stellar anti-industry music variety. Vinyl and CDs are for sale, and allow an opportunity to acquire new tastes, without commercial fluff. Also noteworthy: bin filled with $2 Vinyl picks. (Not Divorce Records) Besides glass encased jewelry and vintage frames, L&F is also decorated with DIY-styled trinkets and art. The space is fused with creative energy and wholesome goodness. I heart. My recent visit ended with the purchasing of a brilliant long sleeved crop top. With its subtle alterations-- front & back scoop neck with buttons, and adorable mini-shoulder pads + ruching-- its a dream piece. And only $18! The detailing of selections make for cool fits and one of a kind pieces. Lost & Found offers a creative and inspiring shopping experience, indeed. The carrier and creator of all things "special", this place is now top on my list.

They also have a large collection of CDs and DVDs, and every time I go I walk away with some amazing deals. The owner is friendly and helpful, and if you're looking to get rid of any of your old music or movies, he'll take them off your hands for cash or store credit (store credit seems like the way to go in most cases, since he tends to be more generous with that than cash). As Adam B. mentioned, he brings his dog to work with him, she usually lounges on the floor in one of the aisles (which isn't really a problem as she seems friendly enough and is usually eager for a quick pat as you walk by).
