 |
|
Hey guys, I'm wondering if anyone knows if there are any good Metal record stores in Barcelona?
I'm going there for a week in September and it would be nice to know if there's anything good Metal-wise. I've tried some online searches but I didn't get much help.
Anyway, anything would be better than the shit in Birmingham, England!
Cheers. |

| All record stores in Barcelona are located in the same area, in the upper part of the Ramblas. Just wander in the very small streets on the right hand side of the Ramblas -- all record stores are mostly based in those streets. |

Yeah, kängnäve pretty much said it all. Some of those stores actually have a pretty decent collection of Metal and Punk. But I encourage you to check out that big department store, can't remember it's name but you can't miss it. There's like 4 of them in the central Barcelona and their midprice - offers are definitely worth checking out. If you're missing something like the whole Megadeth or Venom catalogs, then that's your place. I actually bought all my missing Megadeth CD's (5) for 20 euros some years ago.
Barcelona is probably the best city in the world, been there 4 times and can't get enough of it! Mostly because of Tapas..  |

Thanks guys. I think I know the dept store you mention, as I went there about 7 years ago, but I was only in the city for one day. This time I have a week to myself there.
And yeah, it is an amazing city. If I still love it as much this time I may consider moving out there. |

Sorry to bump a very old thread, but I found this place when I was out there last week and I got Hail of Bullets, Sodom and Hellhammer vinyls from there.
They stock a lot of crap too, but there are gems to be found in the vinyl section out the back! |
