Sorry State Records

Went here on recommendation from another record store. Great selection of Rock and Metal records!! Will be spending an irresponsible amount of money here.

I ordered records online as a gift for someone. It was super easy. They had my records ready for pick up quickly. And the shop was really neat and seemed cool.

Such a great spot for vinyl in Raleigh! I loved talking bluegrass with the employee there, and the selection of used and new vinyl is excellent to be in such a small location. Came home with several new and new-to-me albums, and plan to stop in next time in the area!

Easily my favorite record store in the Triangle. The most recent RSD had all my picks including the lesser known artists.

Great selection of rock and metal. Everything is organized and makes sense.

While the shop is small it’s mighty! My favorite record shop in town. Amazing selection of metal, rock, and jazz. Always something special here to be seen. If you haven’t been you gotta go!

I brought about 75 records in to sell and Jeff took about 40 minutes to call me back with an offer. I got about 50% of what the records were worth, but it's a much easier option than selling individually if you're not already set up and have the experience for shipping records. I was sad to see them go, but hopefully they'll find good homes.

All in all, I love the space, and they made me a fair offer on my records. A gem of a space for the punk and metal heads, but lots of cool stuff in a small store. Had a great experience. Thanks team

Nicely curated selection and friendly staff. Definitely did not give myself enough time to dig through everything. Can't wait to go back

Saved my Record Store Day, for context another store I went to lied and said they would have it but come RSD they did not even order it, ended up driving from Durham to Raleigh for not reason, then drove all over Durham and had no luck, my dad mentioned these guys saying they were good for getting hard to find stuff, called them and said they had what they were looking for in stock and drove out there and got my record. Very happy with this experience and thank y’all so much for making my first RSD I participated in a good one

Most organized record store we have ever encountered...it was easy to spend money because the selection was spot on! Great experience!

Excellent customer service today had a great experience at the store and was very fair with pricing my vinyl Great Spot

It was awesome in there! The guy working there was really nice and I found some cool stuff that I've been looking for forever! Definitely worth it.

Been mail ordering from them for years and finally got to stop by in person. The whole store is on point- great posters on the wall, amazing selection of punk and HC classics and must haves. No need to sift through a bunch of filler records to find some keepers, they’re all great.

One of the best record stores I've been to in a long time. I always have to limit myself when I go in there so I don't spend ALL my money.

They had GUTS on release day and feather / stick season for RSD! please more pop!

Great selection. Decent prices on most albums. Loved the discounted LP selection. Loved that they placed every album I purchased into a good quality plastic sleeve. I'll be back next time I'm in town. Thank you for this!

Good beer, great music, fun atmosphere. Amazing selection of well cared for vinyls. If i hadn’t just moved from NC this would have become go-to spot to talk to fellow music nerds.

This is my favorite record store. I don't get to go here too often because of the distance, but I always end up spending more than I intend to. They have good prices -- you don't have to worry about traveling to the store just to pay Discogs median like you do at other stores.

The best part is the selection, even in the discount bins there are always good albums to pick out. If you are considering visiting the store, and you love records (there are a few cassettes, no CDs...), go here!!

It is a very interesting record store with new, as well as used, records. We bought two used and two new records. My only complaint was the temperature inside the store should have been cooler.

If you're not into the vinyl trend you will be after visiting this great shop. The employees were very knowledgeable and explained collectable values.

They had a phenomenal vinyl collection to choose from. They also had some cassette tapes and other accessories on site (such as stickers, buttons, etc).

The person working there was very knowledgeable about what we were looking for and very friendly. The pricing is on par with other record shops in the area also.
