The cover of Matador's 2010 Record Store Day's "Spiral Scratch" by the Toronto Hardcore ensemble, Fucked Up, depicts a Buffalo, NY record shop which has recently become another piece of music history.
Last week, Spiral Scratch had a fire which gutted the shop and closed the doors on the recently spotlighted shop. Total bummer. Best of luck to you guys.
as bad as that photo looks, thats the front counter and the fire didn't spread much due to the tattoo guys next dore noticing it and acting quick.
ReplyDeletewe re-opened 6 months later with the help of people of Buffalo and bands, labels and distributors from all over the world. still kicking.
