Headline Records in Hollywood is easily one of my favorite record shops to visit. The store has an…read moreincredible selection, especially if you are into punk, hardcore, and rare imports. I always appreciate how curated their inventory feels compared to larger chain stores. Whether you are looking for a specific pressing or just want to browse, the staff is knowledgeable and keeps the shop feeling authentic. It is a true staple of the music scene and a must-visit destination for any collector. I make it a point to stop by whenever I am in the area.

The perfect place for all the K-Pop fanatics!!…read more Leading up to the Blackpink Deadline World Tour, here in LA, my sister did all of her research and had a list of merch she was planning to buy. I can't express the disappointment my sister faced when items were either sold out super early in the day and some items she was eagerly wanting wasn't available for sale in North America. Thankfully, Fandom K was all over our social medias. This little gem carries an abundance of items relating to the K-Pop genre but also specializes in items only found in Korea & Japan. This place was a dream come true for my sis and she was able to find a majority of her wants. Staff is kind and open to help if you are willing to speak up. 4 stars overall. Pricing is kind of high depending on what you are purchasing but I didn't expect anything less since the shop offers items that aren't normally available in the US. As a forewarning, parking is terrible if you are attempting to find something along the street. I suggest having someone wait in the car and swing back around to pick you up once you are finished shopping.

Came here with my cousin looking for some classicl vinyl from back in the day. This place is the…read moreepitome of cool. And while we didn't find the particular albums that we were looking for, we were blown away by the sheer ambiance and amount of product they do possess. Being a child of the 70's and '80s, we could have looked through their collection for four or five hours easy since I think those were the greatest decades of music with artist who not only achieved legendary status, but even one hit wonders that what have you going back into time. In fact, we were joking with the staff that we easily could have opened and closed the place down by doing an entire day shift right alongside them! The place really blows you away from a 5 senses standpoint as well. The sights, sounds, and smells all hit you at once-and in here and on this occasion, that was a great thing. If you follow a little hallway it leads you into a completely different section into what seems like a another small universe or at least galaxy. Once on the other side of this hallway which leads you to another portion of the building entirely, your met with even more records and additional musical and odd treasures. To top it off, a bar with alcohol awaits you! Lol You can't make this place up! Bottom line here folks is this is a really cool, cool place-especially for those who love classic music, a good beer, and the idea of hunting for what you want. I'd highly recommend this place....just be prepared to put in some serious time for research and for your senses to be able to take it all in.

It's really interesting how a single kpop establishment has two stores inside the same mall. The…read morestore located in front of the escalators are dedicated to CDs. They mostly offer new releases (trust me, with a variety of versions) and a few throwback albums (from the late 2010s / early 2020s). Their location on the other end of the hall (next to 그녀 샵 [Geu Nyeo Shop]) has an extensive selection of posters, lightsticks and a few souvenirs. Being a kpop stan on budget seems like an oxymoron, however I made it possible by focusing on posters during my first visit. Their posters are placed on shoebox like shelves and are labeled according to group/artist. Here's my tip upon selecting posters: be sure to read the labels above the barcode. It tells you the poster's name. However, if you'd like a sneak peek of what the poster looks like, you may search on Google or Choice Music's website to see an actual preview. Take your sweet time, as long as it's not as busy and/or if you're determined to get the poster(s) that you want. Some posters (for example Seventeen) have dedicated ones per unit (vocal, performance, hip hop) and some have all members in one poster. Surprisingly, all of my 3 posters were on sale that day. Depending on the cashier on duty, they may offer freebies along with your purchase. Happy Hunting with many choices at Choice Music!

They used to allow this but disabled this option because of Covid. I feel like they can easily support this once again. IN STORE I like how everything is organized. It's easy to find things. Inventory is decent. WEBSITE The website has a nice layout and the search function works well. I haven't had any issues. SERVICE I've had a good experience every time. Today, Eunice helped me with my purchases. She took her time to go over everything with me and was really professional. The credit card readers have had issues a good number of times though. Maybe they can upgrade them.

I found some titles I had been looking for recently. Yeah, I could have ordered them from somewhere online, but I want to support local shops because it helps keep the community going. There was such a large selection of genres, many that were new to me. I love being able to browse physical music again. I have found that slowing down and listening intentionally makes me appreciate the artists more. I keep hearing new things in songs that I have missed before. The next time I am in the area I will stop in again.

It's great to see a new record store on Hollywood Blvd. these days. It's been opened for a year (at…read moreleast) at this location and it has a bigger location on Pico. I noticed it, but never went inside to check it out till recently. I like that it stays opened till late, some places close too early (I am sure it's a financial thing). Customer here is nice. The selection is just OK.. A few issues: the stores needs to be cleaner and better organized. They have records, books, CD-s, DVD-s, VHS. The condition isn't the best, they also need to put prices on everything. I picked up lots of items with no stickers on so you give up, especially since the prices at Nivessa are so high! I am glad they opened, but I hope things will improve here.
