No Neck Blues Band?

TheDom · 03.31.2006, 08:05 PM

I'm interested in them. Do you guys have any recommendations to which album is their best?

Glice · 03.31.2006, 08:08 PM

Letters from the Earth is my joint favourite album of all time (With Fushitsusha's 'I saw it! ...that which before I could only sense...') . All of their records are mind-meltingly brilliant. Perhaps start with sticks and stones... because I think that's the easiest way in. But they are so much better than anything else in the world right now apart from Keiji Haino.

Yeah, NNCK are great and mighty. I'm not sure Letters From the Earth is the best place to start. As Glice suggests Sticks and Stones is pretty fantastic. Aslo Qvaris, the most recent one, makes a good primer.

Other ones which I love are Intonomancy, Parallel Easters and Birth of Both Worlds. I only have a copy of Birth.. so if anyone has an actual copy they want to sell...let me know. I know yod.com has it but they want $80 for it.

Also, look out for the collaboration with Embryo that's coming out next month.....

TheDom · 04.01.2006, 07:36 PM

Thanks guys. I downloaded Qvaris and Sticks & Stones. I really like Qvaris. I'm going to order it here in a minute.

I'll probably want to get that Embryo split too. I take it Embryo are a good band?

Have you checked gemm.com? Or ebay? I often find rare NNCK releases at those sites.

I haven't got birth of both worlds, I do need it... have you heard re: mister a fan? That's my favourite of the lo-fi, recorded in a box ones... it's amazing how they start of sounding like a hippy jam band and somehow always end up in some sun ra space weirdness thing... Truly one of the greatest bands of the moment, they shit on JOMF, Sunburned and the like.

None in the UK... although possibly in December... I'm toying with going to the Spanish festival to see them...

What else is on at this Spanish festival?

Total bummer that they're not playing in the UK. I am kind of tempted to go and see them somewhere in Europe as well. It's sort of around my birthday so maybe I can justify the expense to myself that way.

Embryonnck release party would be awesome....and while if I went it would make sense to catch a few other dates while in Germany. BIt of a pipedream though...

jon boy · 04.03.2006, 09:10 AM

totaly love the nnbb. does anyone know if they are playing in the states between april and may?

Iain · 04.03.2006, 09:16 AM

oh right....Primavera sound fest. Didn't pay too much attention there did I? I think I would prefer to see them outside of a festival situation and Spain isn't high on my list of places I would like to visit....too hot for my taste.

Sn@ke · 04.03.2006, 11:51 AM

yes!! they are coming to Portugal!!.

thanks for the tour dates.

Iain · 04.04.2006, 11:08 AM

Anyone thinking of seeing them on this tour? Despite them not playing in the UK I am thinking of making a trip across the channel to see them. Don't know which date yet. Sort of thinking maybe Germany seeing as I might be able to catch 2 or 3 dates there. Or maybe Rotterdam as that gives me more planning time.

finding nobody · 05.22.2006, 10:26 AM

so, they're not really a blues group?
