I was so pissed when I went to best buy to get my copy Evil or Very Mad . They didn't bother put "Room Noise" on the sales floor. Crying or Very sad I then went to ask one of the employee's to see if they received it. She looked it up on the computer and said she'll be right back. She went and got a copy for me and only put 2 more on the sales floor. Taken it inconsideration that it was 1:00 p.m. They had more then enough time to put them out for sale. But I'm very happy that I have a copy of "Room Noise" What are you guys thoughts about this?

I KNOW! - Same thing just happened to me at Target. So I didn't even get to live out my death by Eisley zombies fantasy. I'm going to Good Records tonight and they'd BETTER like Eisley enough to actually put the album on their shelves.

I went to the Sam Goody in the Mall of America (Bloomington, Minnesota) and they had about 10-15 copies on the shelf. They even had one of those plastic divider things that said "Eisley" on it.

I liked that. I just wish their prices were cheaper.

I also picked up Muse's Showbiz album too.

Niiiiiiice. Not as good as Room Noises, but it is another full-length debut.

Ya, that's what I've found too, each bestbuy got three copies. I'm very disappointed with the reception of the album by stores, I'm not hearing anything good about how they've stocked it. Especially for a cd that's getting good reviews in most of the major magazines.

The Best Buy in Houston close to where I live had several copies. They even had it on display where they put out the notable new releases.

I think if every Best Buy only stocked three copies.. well, that's not too shabby as I've heard there's like 6500 Best Buys in America.. that' slike 19,500 albums. For a first LP from a relatively unheard of band, that's pretty decent distribution (for one chain, mind you). But as others have indicated, I don't think this is the case for every Best Buy. There were only a few at the one I went to (I didn't count them, though).

Total arghness, man. I travelled down to the local Wal-Mart this afternoon, and was shocked and dismayed to find that they had not stocked it either.

Well...I suppose I wasn't really shocked. People around here don't really have the best taste in music...but I was certainly dismayed! Dunno what I'm going to do now. Guess I'll have to order it online.
