(if you can't read the text in the picture, that's the album Only Life by The Feelies, only one of my favourite bands, like, ever. Sez Allmusic: Of the countless bands to emerge from the New York City underground during the post-punk era, few if any were as unique and influential as The Feelies; nerdy, nervous, and noisy, even decades later their droning, skittering avant-garde pop remains a key touchstone of the American indie music scene... and so on and so on).Yay. Yay me.
Record arrived last night. I promptly remove the shrinkwrap* and discover -- to my horror -- than rather than the advertised LP, within is some awful late-80s major-label record by fucking John Hiatt. The tedious, past his use-by date and vastly-overrated John fucking Hiatt.
I feel violated.
* Yes, it was shrinkwrapped, and had presumably been so since it was pressed at the plant sometime in the 80s. Go figure.

Have you been scammed? Because eBay sellers with shrinkwrap machines are a well known feature...
