We believe 2021 will prove to be a pivotal year for Stinkweeds. Along with our regular customers, who we appreciate to no end, this has been a year of new faces. With those new faces comes new tastes, conversation and responsibility to our customers. Our first accommodating change was to bring on two new members […]

For a lot of us, our relationship to music was re-evaluated this year. For us, the biggest change was losing live music. We had to dig even deeper into our album listening and work hard to find that mental space that live music occupied. For those of you who all of a sudden had some […]

In a normal year, we’d usually have a “5 favorites” for every month. In a year where our little record shop has become a record mailorder, curbside pickup and appointment shopping retail outlet, and instead of having 1 Record Store Day, we now have three, some of those months can just slide right past us.

The Stinkweeds Blog has kept a pretty strong streak of “Five Favorites” over the past few years, consistently throwing together the best five albums to come out every month.

But, you really can’t beat the experience of sitting alone with a pair of headphones, absorbing every nuance and detail of a well crafted […]

No matter what kind of Dad you have, chances are, he’s got his taste in music…and he just won’t shut up about it. So, this Father’s Day, we’re giving him a break from sharing all that knowledge that, frankly, nobody asked about. I mean, how many times can you be made aware of the “slow […]

We’re hot of the heals of Record Store Day, but that doesn’t mean we don’t have plenty of reasons for you to line up at our door! This year has been FULL of incredible releases, seemingly with no end in site. Check out a few April titles that we just can’t get enough of! Kelly […]
