Well done Scott! Now, what order would you put them in?

― udu wudu (udu wudu), Friday, 16 January 2004 23:22 (5 years ago) Permalink

damn, that was kinda hard. it's still not perfect. i tried to get rid of duplicates and such.we were at 500 a while ago it seems. the numbers were all screwy.

Hah, Udu! i dunno. good question.

― scott seward (scott seward), Friday, 16 January 2004 23:23 (5 years ago) Permalink

well done scott! was fun. duplicates: 117/122, 17/165, 461/463.

I own 98 of 'em (contributing 38 titles helped of course).

damn, how did i miss that venetian snares thing. the earth 2 thing is more understandable.and that 461/463 thing is just a goof by me. yeah, but three duplicates ain't bad. just replace them with 3 from those 11 extra ones. that'll do the trick.
and Milton, thanks tons for all the names. thanks to everybody. that was fun. Julio's name sure came up a lot.i didn't count how many were his, but its a lot.

also: I'm really glad that Crass made the list.

there is a goodly amount of jazznoise on that list, but i can't help but feel that there was a freejazz freak that missed this thread.no ayler or shepp on it. or any of the zillion records i've never heard that probably make ayler and shepp sound like a day in the park. where's thurston when you need him?

A Note of clarification:

"338 to live and shave in l.a.2-kill misty:threnody/300 dollar silk shirt"

It's common knowledge that this album is actually a Chicago radio session taken from the original To Live and Shave in L.A.'s 1999 tour. After the group broke up (or went on vacation or haitus, or whatever it is they did until they reformed in 2004), the supporting musicians from the '99 tour bootlegged the tapes, added the "2," and undertook a brief, satirical tour to promote themselves.

So, even tho it's "2," the album (338) is really TLASILA "1".

also Nom De Plume's Christian Marclay submission which ended up being 209:

>The Christian Marclay records which were laid on a gallery floor and packaged up after crowds had walked on them repeatedly

I misidentified this as "Record Without a Cover", it's actually "Footsteps"

RE: To Live And Shave - Not common knowledge to me! Someone gave me that cd and i just wrote down what was on the cover for the purposes of this list. Thanks for the info!

― scott seward (scott seward), Friday, 9 April 2004 22:11 (5 years ago) Permalink

Scott - the TLASILA radio session dated from October 22, 1999, and was broadcast live over WNUR-FM, Chicago. The "Kill Misty" album is identical to the WNUR broadcast, apart from some editing and digital equalization done after the fact. The line-up is identical, but the song titles (which were announced over the air by Tom Smith) were changed for the bootleg, and all between song announcements were deleted. TLASILA 2 did their best to cover their tracks, but in the end too many people had heard the broadcast, and put 2+2 together. I have both the WNUR session and the "Misty" boot, and they are one and the same. TLASILA 2 was a scam group, although a pretty funny one!

as long as to live & shave in la is a topic of conversation, i'd like to nominate their 1st album, '30-minuten mannercreme', and their last (before reforming), 'the wigmaker'. both are amazing, unlike anything before or since, as unique as merzbow, whitehouse, scott walker, jandek, xenakis, anyone. very cool and important music.

the highlight of my trip to nova scotia last summer was finding a copy of TL&SILA's helen butte vs. masonna pussy badsmell in a dollar bin.

new noise releases that have tickled my fancy:
-prurient/kites split LP
-hair police - rattler's echo
-burning star core tape on chondritic sound
-dead machines - plays the night shift
-ceylon mange tape on since 72 (holy shit; where do i get more of this stuff??? totally amazing.)

"the highlight of my trip to nova scotia last summer was finding a copy of TL&SILA's helen butte vs. masonna pussy badsmell in a dollar bin."

awesome! that's a crazy album, tho imho not as intense or bracing (or exploratory) as 'wig'.

great list you've given us. who exactly are ceylon mange, btw? isn't that a side project of the decaer pinga loons?

sindra

― sindra st. clair, Saturday, 10 April 2004 04:40 (5 years ago) Permalink

i want to say ceylon mange is somehow related to dylan nyoukis/decaer pinga... i think ILX's very own roger adultery has played with them??

the most noize thing i've been listening to lately is the Gate LP on Majora. It is pretty noise. Also, the Minimal Man 7".

today at work, my boss and his partner found a charlemagne palestine double LP in a box in the basement. Four Manifestations on Six Elements. I wish i had cash for things like that. I'm pretty sure they're gonna ebay it. sigh.

also, at work I listened to the Meerk Puffy LP. It's pretty good! I went outside to smoke and came back and the locked groove was playing. funny.

Oh hey! I'm just discovering the wonderful world of ILX. This thread has been dormant for a while, and I confess I haven't read it all yet. Anyone in there a Merzbow fan? I have the Merzbox, and it is monumental!

Thanks fetchboy.

Mister, it appears to be a concentrated noisehead discussion area. It's going to take me a while to figure out ILX.....any discussion concentrated on Merzbow or the Mmerzbox in there?

Cheers.

"concentrated noisehead discussion area"...?

not really. it seems to be the dank basement where the ilx mods sequester the deformed cousins.

it has little to do with being sequestered and much more to do with a general distaste for standard ILX bullshit. (insert uk/isle of faggotry joke here.) xp

I hope scott hasn't given up his dreams of turning this thread into a book yet

one idea is to start another thread, and invite people who contributed to this thread to re-post short descriptions of the albums contributed

sort of want to do that to the 'top 100 ambient albums' thread as well
