LOVE future days
Hudson Mohawke- Butter
Pivot- O Soundtrack My Heart
Dananananaykroyd- Hey Everyone!
Butter is one of the most interesting records I've heard in a long time. It's taken me a few spins to really get into it. FUSE is so awesome. O Soundtrack My Heart is alright, about 3 or 4 decent tracks but nothing special. Hey Everyone! is insanely good fun. I'd started to lose my faith in guitar music but this album has restored it. Now I need to see them live...
Mickey Pearce/ Martin Kemp - Innami
Grievous Angel - Soundclash/Harpy
Darkstar - Aidy's Girl Is a Computer
Subeena - Solidify
Brackles - Get a Job
2562 - Unbalance
Smiths - S/T
Bravo.
I went on a vinyl attack last week and got
Untold - It's Gonna Work Out Fine (so, SO good)
Scuba - Aesaunic
2562 - Unbalance
Ikonika - Smuck/We Could Be Ikons
Instramental - Leave It All Behind/Forbidden
Also, Nick Cave & Warren Ellis' White Lunar on CD.
It's got moments of absolute, sheer brilliance and some bits where the treble gets so vibrant it actually hurts your ears.
as it says 2nd November
Brand new for £15. So much win.
really?
C93 "Aleph At Hallucinatory Mountain"
SPARKLEHORSE + FENNESZ "In the Fishtank 15"
Fenn O'Berg "Magic and Return"
Biosphere "Substrata"
Biosphere "The Man With A Movie Camera"
Yellow Swans: "Deterioration", "Drift EP", "Bring The Neon War Home", "Portable Dunes"
Justice "Cross"
MSTRKRFT "Fist Of God"
FOREST CREATURE "Frustrated Analog"
Chrome Hoof "Pre-Emptive False Rapture"
There's a tape of theirs for something like £100 on eBay. You seeing them tonight? Should be good.
also kinda good.
I was pretty sure you'd like it, but I'd like to know if my judgement was right on that one.
TO stay with the theme of the thread, I should have Grind Madness at the BBC (Plus Napalm Death t-shirt) 3 disc album, and the 3 disc Pure/Cold World/Slavestate Godflesh reissue turning up in the post any day now.
Tom Waits - Swordfishtrombones
Grooms - um i forget the title but their album
Surfer Blood - see above
Ducktails - s/t
Le Loup - Family
Neil Young - Rust Never Sleeps
Talking Heads - Talking Heads '77 (this is a fucking dual disc and my DVD burner won't recognise it so can't mp3 it was only like $4 but still aaaaaargh)
Oxford Collapse - Bits ($2 second hand WINNNNNN)
i think that was everything. i was restrained. i wish i had more money to buy CDs.
I think it's stupidly brilliant.
Nemo, the guy who runs it, wrote the liner notes for the record's re-release and seems to occasionally get a few copies in. Chances are if you email him straight away, you might be able to bag a copy. He only charges $3 postage too. Such a nice guy.
I am indeed going tonight...seriously cannot wait. Gotta rush into London from work though, so hoping I don't end up with a crappy seat at the back/miss NSB.
I met him as well. Lovely chap, bit of an afro going on.
Atlas Sound - Logos
Kinda like it so far but not had chance to put it on much yet.
Hudson Mohawke - Butter
Loads of fun it never fails to make me smile.
lots of 12"s: Untold, Heny.G, Silkie, Ikonika, Instra:mental, Al Tourettes, Sully... Thats it I think, the Untold EP is essential.
"Invocation Of Almost" is a thriller. I have yet to really "listen" to it properly. It's customary for me to listen to some artists in the dark either with headphones or on loudspeakers- C93 is one of those artists. I have serious catching up to do with Tibet, NWW and the other "World Sepent" artists that I kind of lost track of after that label went belly up.
I love your judgement and follow it.
I'd like to get that Godflesh thing. My Godflesh is in a sorry state. What's it called? Are they separate editions or bundled?
: )
but i realllllllllllllly like it so far. really lush sounding but the songwriting comes across more and theres less reliance on twinkly ambience than before.
Kowton 12" on Keysound, its so good like garage and minimal have been brought together with early Loefah.
I never liked Cathedral much but Chrome Hoof promises to turn into another Sun Ra or something if they keep going on this tack. Kind of a cross between King Crimson and Sly and the Family Stone- INDEED HILARIOUS
sorry, neighbours
I really liked the twinkly ambiance but this is cool too he does the song writing guitar thing damn well too. I just need to live with it more at the mo.
it's my favorite thing Cox has done so far. I wish I had got the damn Rough Trade EP, the acoustic version of Kid Climax is just bone chilling. Quick Canal's been on steady repeat too, and My Halo is pure doo-wop genius. The HudMo thing I'm a little more on the fence about but overall I like it, it just confuses the crap out of me sometimes.
It's my favorite of theirs next to Wonderful Rainbow, leans a little more toward metal and it's a good look for them I'd say.
just getting myself a total added up. hope you get there in time!
but I like how mad and playful it is.
I got the rough trade ep I've not put it on yet though.
Quick Cannal has always been brilliant, I think I've got two diffrent demo versions of it from his blog and this one doesn't disapoint either. I'm a bit disapointed he didn't leave Diffrence BT on their like on the logo demo leak thats one of my fave Atlas Sound tracks a proper release version would have been ace.
and got;
Asobi Seksu - Hush
Caspian - The Four Trees
Crippled Black Phoenix - A Love of Shared Disasters
Dinosaur Jr - You're Living All Over Me (don't know why I've waited til now to get this!)
Part Chimp - Thriller
Saxon Shore - It Doesn't Matter
Up C Down C - And The Battle Is Won
Went on a bit of a post-rock binge there!
As for physical purchases I got I Concur's debut Able Archer yesterday, on first listen it sounds excellent, another good'un to add the the 2009 list!
Probably my favourite album of last year :-)
cos I got given a couple of gift vouchers. I won't be back in a hurry. Messed around converting 'em all from m4a to mp3 and the tags were all rubbish. And after all that rigmarole, I haven't even had a chance to listen to 'em yet.
£30 for some files in a format I didn't want 'em in, and the responsibility to keep a backup. All a bit of a hollow experience really - I'd much rather have spent £30 on some physical copies.
Anyways, I got:
N.A.S.A. - The Spirit of Apollo
Dark Was The Night - Red Hot Comp
Dead Weather - Horehound
Mumford & Sons - Sigh No More
for CMJ week.
HUSH ARBORS. may buy some more albums tomorrow as my girlfriend has just paid me £150 that I was owed. Can't decide what to get though thinking... Liam Frost, The Cave Singers, Espers, Atlas Sounds, Alec Ounsworth, Devandra Barnhart, Le Loup Family, Broken Records.
Just been given the 2009 reissue as a late birthday present, the best thing to happen to me all day by a wide margin. :D
DJ Shadow - The Outsider
Twin Atlantic - Vivarium
Phoenix - Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix (though without the extra remix cd which I was kind of wanting but nevermind)
Pavement - Crooked Rain (Deluxe Edition) (which has 49 tracks!!!! 49 TRACKS!!!!! 49!!!)
2562 - Unbalance
Shackleton - Three EPs
Max Richter - Songs From Before
Jeffrey Lewis - It's The Ones Who've Cracked That The Ligt Shines Through
Volcano Choir - Unmap
and awaiting in the post
Do Make Say Think - Other Truths
The Rural Alberta Advantage - Hometowns
Growing - Shy's Run Into The Sea
White Rainbow - New Clouds
Light not ligt!!!
They were pretty great at Bestival, I thought. Not got round to buying the album though.
The only Hudson Mohawke track I've heard that I'd pay money for is Overnight, and it's not on the album. So that's one purchase I won't be making...
Going to get Lightning Bolt-Earthly Delights
http://www.earache.com/webstore/product_info.php/products_id/2135?osCsid=d7elvtlta452m2dluhplp0eqf5
Three CDs, The original album, along with the Cold World EP, and the Slavestate remix/reinterpretation album, all remastered and with a few extra tracks. More than 2 and a half hours all in all. Considering the grind at the BBC peel session comp has a running time of over 3 and a half hours and that I got both those and the t-shirt all together for less than £30 on the earache site, along with free postage, I think I did pretty well out of it.
'Aleph..' definitely requires a serious listen all the way through with good headphones or speakers. It's probably the most instrumentally complex and dense of the C93 stuff I've come across, though there's still a lot of Tibet's discography I haven't heard yet.
Sufjan Stevens - The BQE
Twilight Sad - Forget the Night Ahead
The Pains of Being Pure at Heart - Higher Than the Stars
A good place for record shopping, I'd imagine:)
they look pretty good. The album didn't really grab me.
Oooohhhh but the Hudson Mohawke album is so good! Not what I was expecting at all. I'm not sure what he'd be like live.
come to think of it, it was two months ago as well.
So yesterday I bought:
Hudson Mohawke - Butter (promo)
James Blackshaw - Waking into Sleep
David Holmes - Come get it I got it
Boredoms - Superroots 5
I like it!
