Thrillhouse Records on Postcard

"Volunteer run and not for profit, this record store/hangout specializes in punk and underground music. The Bay area has long been an epicenter of not only punk music, but more importantly punk ethics and progressive DIY culture. Drop in and you will leave with at least a few unexpected finds, or snag the latest copy of Maximumrocknroll (our fav). No matter what treasure you dig up, you’ll be supporting something really positive." - Strohl

I ordered a record online last week, a vinyl Danzig record and paid through Paypal. Was excited about the look of the store and the idea of a volunteer operation. Unfortunately I got no response back from them for over a week and had reached out via email three times but no luck. After a week of no responses, and all their phone numbers listed are disconnected, I gave up and had to reach out to Paypal for a refund and cancel my order. Cannot recommend a store that won't communicate and is run by volunteers. Won't be back.

Surprising amount of cds, great for fans of punk and indie rock. There was some hardcore as well. Prices on cds are good. Vinyl has a wider selection but typical price points for new/'rare' stuff. I appreciate the emphasis on promoting local bands/shows!

I always feel good after shopping at this place. Its a non profit and they rep the youths and their punk while also stocking all kinds of other great (non punk) records too. They buy records as well and are very fair with the prices they give. So glad they exist. Go over and support this place!

One of the coolest record stores I've been to. If you are into punk, goth, alternative and rock, this is the store for you. Their punk and alternative collections are second to none. The majority of used records are in the VG, VG+ and NM values Their prices are about average too. $8 to $15 for used LPs and $25+ for new record. The people at the counter are pretty friendly and hip. I've found some great copies of Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, Misfits, and the Descendants. I also found a couple of great Joy Division LPs. If you want to catch the vibe, head down to this cool jiving record store and bring your mohawk with you.

I went to six record stores in San Francisco while I was in town. Thrillhouse has the best selection of punk records. When I go back to SF, they will be the only record store I go to.

Here lies the beginning of "One of the greatest bands to exist!"- next to System of the Down, Metallica, A7X and Slipknot->They are Sheesh Mahal! Check out their new jam-The Eraser! Thankyou to Thrillhouse Records! Peace and Love!

Stopped by here since I'm staying in the area and I'm glad I did. Of course, very punk-focused, which is nice if you're into that. Really good selection of stuff and just a well-curated store. Also seems like they host events often, which is nice.

Place is one of the better record/cassette shops I ever been to. They got pins, shirts, etc.
