I just got a vinyl in the mail.

You don't call it "a vinyl." You call it a record. Vinyl's the shit records are made of.

 

Now, saying you have something "on vinyl" is appropriate.

Neat. I really love those early MBV singles. Even Geek!. I think their first LP is 90% derivative, boring :poop:, but the EP's were pure pop magic. Also, while I have nothing against unironically twee lyrics, I appreciate how they subverted that approach to songwriting by using it to make oblique references to necrophilia and stuff.

 

PS: In my experience, it seems like a lot of BRI'ISH people refer to records as "vinyls". I think elsewhere, most people only use the word to describe the material as opposed to the object itself. So "vinyl" as a term for the object (record) is not "incorrect", it's just a regionalism that sees very limited use elsewhere. Some half-baked food for thought.

You mean Isn't Anything? I actually really liked that album. MBV is one of the only bands I can think of that hasn't released anything that I don't like.
