The mv/ee and the bummer road disc might actually be my favourite of these 3. The Sunburned disc is also really strong though and would probably be my favourite if it was a it longer. Although I do like the WW disc, it's not as strong as Harem of the Sundrum/Witness Fig and he sounds a bit too Devendra Banhart-y.

if you are a subscriber and have moved since the last mailing, be sure to make sure you pass along your current mailing address within the next week-ish. the third mailing (containing kinski and bardo pond) will be going out towards the end of the month. thanks!

FYI - the mirror/dash disc and the slipcase will be mailed out in the final mailing in november.

this has been a wonderful series so far!

From SecondLayer records website:

We have a very limited number of sets of Three Lobed’s Modern Containment series which consists of eight CD EPs by eight different artists including Hush Arbors, Sun City Girls, Bardo Pond, Kinski, Sunburned Hand Of The Man, Matt Valentine & Erika Elder With The Bummer Road, Wooden Wand And The Omen Bones Band, Mirror/Dash and a bonus disc by Mouthus not listed on the Three Lobed website – 9 CDs in total. Each CD is at least 25 minutes long (or longer in most cases) and features new, exclusive material from that particular artist. There will also be a hand silkscreened slipcase (included in second mailing) to house the series featuring new artwork from John Gibbons of Bardo Pond. Currently 6 of the 9 CDs are ready to ship and the other 3 CDs and the slipcase will be shipped automatically in the next month or so. This set is strictly limited to 550 copies.

Hush Arbors - Landsacpe Of Bone

Sun City Girls - Live Room

Mouthus - For The Great Salt Lakes

Wooden Wand with Keith Wood, Satya Sai & The Omen Blues Band - Horus Of The Horizon

MV & EE with The Bummer Road - Play Ellas McDaniel’s ‘Who Do You Love’

Sunburned Hand Of The Man - The Mylar Tantrum

The remaining 3 CDs in the second batch will be listed soon.

sorry for the mild delay on this third batch - all of the parts are now in hand and we'll have these out of here as soon as we can get all of the envelopes stuffed (late this week, first day or two of next).

likewise, all of the artwork has been approved on the mirror/dash disc and it's on schedule for a mid-november release along with the slipcase...

the remaining international and domestic packages from the series' third mailing will be out in tomorrow's mail. i updated the site with illustrations of these new discs last night. start keeping an eye towards your mailbox.

in other news, the mirror/dash disc is cranking away at the plant. mid-november is our targeted mailing and all is looking good...

You're a real tease, aren't you, making us wait for the CD that we all want the most? :p

it would have been out earlier if we hadn't hit a snag with an artwork file that we couldn't correct until the summer SY tour was over. anyway, all is cranking along at the plant now. no intentional teasing...

So this mailing will be the Bardo Pond, Kinski AND Mouthus discs and then the Mirror/Dash on it's own in November?

I'm enjoying this series. Mainly the fact that I sort of forget about it and then it's time for another batch and because I've already paid for them, it's a bit like getting a present.

correct. three discs in this mailing (bardo, kinski, mouthus). the final mailing will be mirror/dash and the slipcase. hopefully mid-november will be the mailing of that one. the discs should be done by then and it's more of a question of if the slipcases will be (although they should be - just being cautious).

...

i don't follow. the disc in question is of mirror/dash and it is called "i can't be bought." 37+ minutes.

that guy is confused with an old sonic youth ep.

oh wow, so everyone is getting the mouthus disc as a bonus? nice! it's been a really great series so far.


mr. threelobed, I was wondering... any beans to be spilled yet about the bardo pond european tour in december? ;)

yep, all subscribers get the mouthus disc. it's a monster - hope you dig it!

as for the tour, i haven't been given all of the dates yet - once i have them they'll be on the site. no worries.

thanks! i'm especially interested in the dates right before and after ATP, so i'll be checking regularly.

i got the latest bunch today, this has been really great series!

i got my package today as well. i'm listening to the kinski disc now and i really should be going to bed but there's still almost half an hour to go and i don't want to turn it off yet.

so far it looks like bardo pond fans in glasgow, manchester, berlin, bristol and dublin will be lucky...

got some mail from MG the other day and i should have the full list of dates "soon". the page will have them as soon as i know them...
