Agree, agree. (Dear lord, are they even using the same tunings?)

But I notice whenever I hear a band heavily influenced by SY, they seem to miss something ineffable yet essential, which just makes me appreciate SY all the more.

"Tolerancia Picante", new album by MoE + Mette Rasmussen:
https://moepages.bandcamp.com/album/tolerancia-picante

Anne Waldman digs it:


MoE/Rasmussen are currently on tour in Japan. Joakim got sick so they are having guest drummers, and the last show of the tour will probably be an explosion: Guro Moe, The Skaset, Mette Rasmussen, Masataka Fujikake, and Keiji Haino performing as a quintet.

PJ Harvey's original score to "All About Eve" is now available to purchase as a digital download from Invada Records' Bandcamp:

Holy crap! :eek: No physical release, though, right? At least I can't find one at https://www.invada.co.uk/collections/all-products. Anyway, this is the shit! And Gillian Anderson looks better than she did when the original X-Files were on! Not that it matters! But still! 50 is the new 25!

Age is only a number. PJ Harvey is aging quite well also. I'm basically the same age as both these people and seeing their career trajectories blossom has been a wonderful part of my life.

I think a physical release will happen at some point. I know some releases which were planned for the spring, had to be pushed a little bit due to pressing plants being busy re-pressing stuff for Record Store Day. Maybe it was the case with this release as well?

One, Two, Three, Four

You might have some years on me but that don't mean anything
You might have some years on me but that don't mean anything
To me

You might have some fears of
Rejection and all that but at
The end of the days it's
A fact that we are not getting
Any
Younger here

I think that's why I liked
You from the first day I met you
I saw myself in you
A narcissistic egocentric
Freak
Just like me

I know they're just numbers, numbers stand for routes of buses
I know they're just numbers, but numbers stand for wins and losses
I know they're just numbers, mama said they're not important
I know they're just numbers, but numbers start the song for drummers:

One, Two, Three, Four

You might have some years on me but that don't mean anything...

Well, in the meantime we should start a thread about this OH WAIT I already did exactly a month ago :D :

A link to download my online capture of the BBC 4 program is there now. I listened to it again the other night and it's not only excellently done, it shows Polly remarkably open to share the creative process. Only a masochist wouldn't wanna hear it!

Diamanda Galás' music is now available to stream or download at Bandcamp (and everywhere else). According to official sources, most of her work will be reissued later in the year (starting in the fall).

And she was featured on Bandcamp Daily a week ago:

Love the first paragraph:


Also this bit from the Litanies Of Satan Bandcamp page:


(Incidentally, I prefer the 1989 reissue cover art, but that's just how I roll.)

"La Bufa" by MoE, songs about feminicide in Mexico, and the american dream/nightmare. Recorded at Testa Estudio in León, Guanajuato: Said to be an almost exact replica of Electrical Audio (Steve Albini has even worked there a few times lately), and the resident engineer apparently follows Albini's methods closely, so of course MoE's powerful sound is presented in a very crisp yet slamming manner... Also, accordingly, some bass parts had to be re-recorded by the band when they were back in Norway. This is a huge favorite on my record collection.

qualchan - collected: 2k12 ~ 2k19

a chronologically incorrect collection of b~sides, compilation & unreleased tracks.

78 tracks for “name your price.”

It was two years ago tomorrow (September 5th) that a tape label released a various artist comp raising money for my family and our flooded home. qualchan recorded a special track that started the comp......that track is one of the 78.

Big Ups: Wilco's Jeff Tweedy Picks His Bandcamp Favorites

"No matter how much he has on his plate, Wilco's prolific frontman Jeff Tweedy still sets aside part of each Friday to discover new music. 'If you'd told me when I was 12 or 13 that every Friday I could listen to basically every new record that came out, I'd basically lose my mind,' Tweedy says with a laugh, over a phone call before a show in Italy in support of his band's tremendous new album, Ode to Joy. 'Sometimes I form opinions about stuff that isn't for me, like modern country, that I'm just curious about. It's insane sounding, but I try to listen to everything.'"

I imagine O'Rourke would definitely be there and that Bill Orcutt could be, but I didn't know he was a big Grouper fan. NOICE.

Things have changed (heh):




The physical editions include two bonus tracks: the demos for "The Sandman" and "The Moth", sung by Harvey instead of Anderson and James. A remix of "The Sandman" by the play's sound designer, Tom Gibbons, has been added as a third bonus in virtual format. You can find all three tunes in FLAC here, and, uh, probably elsewhere.

"Chunklet Industries just added Lock Him Up keychain to Bandcamp, check it out here."

PEUK
they are a threesome from Belgium and describe themselves as "Think of an early Cat Power who are allowed to borrow the amplifiers from Sonic Youth and decide not to give them back."


It doesn't exactly cover it for me, but it's very cool stuff anyway

If looking for something new (ambient-experimental-drone) for your BandCamp page, give this Fabrica Records Sampler a try......and it’s FREE!!!

Seeing "Bandcamp" on my bank statement just makes me want to buy more stuff off Bandcamp.

totally unrelated to the music but looks to me center person needs some serious postural adjustments. apologies for the tangent but wow, yes.

crazy eyes on the other hand looks healthy upright.
