it is! a better flow throughout the album would have been nice.




before that, it was:

one of my favourite albums ever

times new viking

good choice

i haven't listened to this for ages, i have it on 3x vinyl

lovely stuff^^

ah that album brings back so many memories.

Placebo - Black session 1997 (back then they were decent).

I have been playing that record tons. I can even sing the whole of ''Black Rice'' imaginary karaoke style.

Gareth Hardwick - "I dream of red"

this sounds pretty good. I'm hunting it asap.
difficult to find info on the band on the interwebz tho.
it's as if you called yr band "OBAMA" or "Mc Donald's"

the album's out on Jagjaguwar. Highly recommended by me aswell.

Enough is Enough - Chumbawamba

Sir Richard Bishop

now; julian cope-drollian

earlier:
no doctors-s/t
prurient-pleasure ground
los llamarada-sound like trains
derek bailey and ruins-tohjinbo
derek bailey and keiji haino-drawing close, the atuning
blue oyster cult-spectres, extrateresstial live

keiji haino-black blues (violen version), pretty much keiji playing lo fi rock riffs and screaming bloody murder, mesmerizing.

afrirampo-A

is there a rational reason for japan being cooler than everywhere?

For the first time in forever
And what a damn superb album.. it's so funny to think how I didn't get it at all at first..

Ruins - Hyderomastgroningem

well, since i almost died last night, ive been listening to noise all day and freaking myself out. now im trying to calm down, smoking pot, drinking budweiser, and listening to grateful dead studio recodrings (workingman's dead, american beauty, etc..). you never realize how crazily diverse that band was unless youre wasted on drugs and/or booze, thr best drug band ever. damn, i fucking love the grateful dead. one of those bands i think most would assume i hate, but in reality i listen to more than a lot of stuff.

ponytail!

(josh, excellent choice)

It's actually the first time I've listened to it. ever. Good stuff. I've been getting the post-hardcore thing more as of late.

the casket lottery are pretty cool, in that vein. i've been getting more into it, but there's so much bad stuff, it's tricky to sift through.

Cool. I'll have to check them out. Until last week, for me, there were 2 post-hardcore bands: Fugazi and ATDI

post-hardcore? You should listen to the honor system's ep 100% synthetic... also ,strikeforce diablo's cd, I can't remember the name, I think "arsonist and the architect" or something like that.

anyway..
Only thing I've been listening to is extra life's "secular works". One of the best albums of the year. It's led by a member of zs. Really insane and tough... like a really brutal bludgeoning prog band meets Kayo Dot.. it's got a lot of weird microtonal riffs, some violins, some of the most technical stuff you'll ever hear.... with gregorian chants... very very pretty and odd vocals overtop that are usually quite detached from the music.. also has some long accappella parts.. really weird, "challenging" stuff..

gainesville!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

check out twelve hour turn. they're my favorite band to come out of the late 90's "post hardcore" scene.

i used to listen to them a lot. i still have their shirt.

Bardo Pond - Circuit VIII

Kayo Dot's myspace

Good stuff.
