...productively using sounds which previously would have been left to lie dormant on the cutting room floor. He began working with a palette comprised of in-the-red, bit-crushed digitalia, setting to work kneading these stubborn blocks of harsh sound into a sequence of five pieces which, despite their considerable barbs, retain the fluidity and pathos of the ambient tradition from which they were inspired...Indeed, Superstorms is at once organic and robotic, forceful and calm, coherent and unpredictable. In short, it is a meshing of oppositions- binaries smashed together and expertly sculpted into truly powerful sonic miasma.

That Superstorms shit is cool, will need to explore more but thanks for that link. The tracks I listened to were really interesting (for ambient stuff).
Just stumbled across this Mick Flower Band record on the Three Lobed page, and it is great so far! I love Mick Flower, and here it is he and Jon Moloney just rocking (sounds like a power trio at times but it is just the two of them, with Flower looping some stuff).

Seems like they are just jamming, but they are two dudes that are good at jamming. Keeping my time at work till the holidays feeling joyous and not a downer.

Wow, second track (I listened before but was distracted with some work shit) is great, if you like totally righteous Mick Flower guitar shredding. Guess the last three are live and have added folks (Bridget Hayden from Vibracathedral Orchestra and someone else).

The new United Bible Studies album ("I Am Providence") is amazing... just got it in the mail. Recorded on the 2008 tour that I saw, half of it live at Lovecraft's grave and half at a cloud in Providence RI. Mostly a vocal showcase, the club tracks are totally acapella. Gorgeous.
good review here:

Quick head's up. The Roswell Incident's HIGH ORBITAL released in full yesterday: http://theroswellincident.bandcamp.com/album/high-orbital
There had been a single put up back in April, but I got around to the rest of the works last night.
Super-minimal, but Ned had some nice things to say about it. I suspect he'll be looking for a check in the mail...

Ten percent of nothing with a fifteen percent commission and... Carry the seven since it's a Tuesday...
Right. Precisely seventeen cents.
This is why I'm not a good businessman.
