Right on! Honey's Dead was like a coming of age for me, I can't be objective about it.
Did Hope Sandoval break it off with her Reid bro then?

I'm listening to Munki today. Time has been kind to it. At the time, I remember having an "OMG, WTF?" reaction to it because it was almost like the JAMC recording a satire of a JAMC album.
But with some time and distance, that's what's so great about it.

I mean, honestly. My tape has just disintergrated in ... certain sections. I need a nice, clear, DVD, frame by frame-playable version.
But anyway, yeah. Munki. I mean, maybe it sounds so great because I've heard so much crap lately. I wonder how charitable I would feel if I put on Blues From A Gun or something.
― Danger Whore (kate), Monday, 11 October 2004 09:33 (nineteen years ago) link
didn't like munki when i hear it recently (apart from Moe Tucker) but Honey's Dead was GREAT on another listen.
(i have the video in digital format (vcd or divx) if that's any use to you kate.)

I mean, sure, they're not known for their lyrical prowess, but it's a long way from "I'll be your plastic toy" or even "I wanna die on a sunny day" for chrissake.

> Psychoanalysis" J&MC Compilation
sounds a lot like the video here: http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00004R699/ref%3Dnosim/iq451-21/026-6561500-4698820
which is what i have. i just used my tv capture card to make a digital copy for backup purposes. and because i could.
amazon review for 'sound of speed':"Reviewer: kat791 from englandnot what i was expecting, but good nonetheless. the leonrad cohen cover 'the tower of song' is way cool, as is the cover of 'my girl'. cool acoustic guitar and the singer's got a nice voice. pretty good. similar to the beta band."

I love Automatic too. However, the production has dated a little more than Darklands as it has fewer distinguishable electronics. However, Darklands is mostly drum machine too! (some people disagree with me on this point. unfortunately, they are wrong).

I believe it has a longer introduction, like a fade-in or something.

It's a completely different recording produced by Stephen Hague. Less abrasive than the album version, the sound is similar to "Some Candy Talking".
That whole soundtrack is amazing, btw.

New one has some cool bits (the advance tracks mostly) but also some really abysmal career nadirs (The Eagles and the Beatles? Wtf)

they sound mostly like late-90s Primal Scream to me now
― fetter, Tuesday, 9 April 2024 16:11 (two weeks ago) link
Yeah, this is... not great, it's a pretty mixed bag. Which would be fine for a late career album like this, but the lows are really low.
Fully agree, that one is embarrassing.
