I thought it's cute store and enjoyed browsing there. However, the last time I was there, I was promptly told to leave the store when my cell phone rang. A very snobby girl came o...

Aquarius Records 4/29/2006

Why go anywhere else but Ameoba to buy music? Because Aquarius has those insightful blurbs that they attach to a lot of the albums in the store. These guys know what they're talking about (not that I agree all the time – you are sooo totally wrong about Kid A - but still, mad respect). Also, there's obscure shit here you won't anywhere else, like just try to find a collection of 70's Indonesian field recordings as extensive anywhere else. One question though: what's with the I am Spoonbender obsession? more

Aquarius Records 8/20/2005

This is the best place to find all your music needs. Prices are decent and the workers there are very helpful. I even sold some CD's to make some money that I thought was worthless. When you go in the store, it makes you want to buy everything. You feel like your in heaven. more

Non Mainstream Music 8/19/2005

Aquarius Records is a good place to check out if you want to find underground or hard to find music. They specialize in the non-mainstream area, so don't go there if you're looking for Top 100 CDs. They're into independent and local acts too. It's a cool place to check out, but I haven't been there in a while. Prices are reasonable. more

Hand-picked rarities 8/18/2005

Aquarius is one of the few record stores known internationally. Even though everyone in SF goes to Amoeba (and really, why shouldn't you), Aquarius manages to survive by handpicking only the best, rarest, and weirdest music around. Definitely worth a special trip, you can check out all the new stuff in their listening station. It's a great place to expand your musical repetiore. more
