Unsurprisingly, Ear X-Tacy has been mentioned as one of the best independent record stores in the United States by Spin Magazine. While I couldn’t typically give a shit about anything that Spin says (or AP and similar magazines), I hope this helps drive more people out to the store, and it is great that they are getting this kind of exposure. So congratulations on doing a good job and getting noticed, Ear X-Tacy!
