Located at 809 East 6th Street in Austin, Texas, Encore Records is heaven for lovers of metal, hip hop, rock, and horror. One of the best things about this store is that you’re often greeted by this chap as soon as you enter the place.
The place is full of cool vinyl and plenty of obscure CDs.
It’s a bit cavernous, which lends to the atmosphere if you a metal fan. They also have plenty of horror-themed T-shirts for sale, like this gem.
Yep, that’s a Tomb of the Blind Dead T-shirt hanging above a bunch of jazz records. How cool is that? Or this?
You can wander around in this place for an hour before you realize the time has gone. I scored a copy of Pink Floyd‘s The Piper at the Gates of Dawn there. I held off on the Tomb of the Blind Dead shirt, but there’s always next year.
Keep your mind open.
