Review content:
I'm extremely surprised to see the scores this record store was getting and I felt obligated to write a review. I will limit the scope of my review to one thing: selection of music I was looking to purchase (indie rock). I have no knowledge of their selection of any other genres. I love local record stores and I haven't found one I liked yet in Houston. Based on the comments here, I thought Soundwave might be what I was looking for. My girlfriend and I are going to lollapalooza later this year and were going to grab albums from a few artists on the billing. Soundwaves had 0 albums from any of 5 bands we were looking for including EXPLOSIONS IN THE SKY, which is one of the biggest and most popular bands in independent rock AND they're from Austin (there wasn't even a divider for them). Needless to say, the selection is VASTLY overrated. If you buy your indie rock here there must be something wrong with you. I went down 59 to Best Buy and found 2 explosions cds and at least one album for 2 out of the 4 other bands (Best Buy had Rogue Wave and the Weakerthans, but we struck out on Battles and Yeasayer). To be fair my girlfriend did buy a pair of shoes that she really likes. Overall - There are two places I would buy CDs. One is a place where I could buy more popular CDs for cheap (Best Buy). The other is a place with a deep catalogue of diverse music (your typical record store). This is neither, don't waste a trip, at least as far as rock music is concerned.
Pros: Parking, ambience
Cons: None of that matters if a record shop doesn't have what you want
