Lucifer Songs and Snailking just got reissued by the band this spring.

Oh shit, they did? Had no idea! Do you know where you can get them? Looks like Aquarius only has Lucifer Songs and they aren't turning up in some of my other usual haunts.

All That Is Heavy has them both.

Hah, I was just thinking I should check there, thanks.

That was where I used to get all my Ufomammut before the Neurot deal.

Finally heard the new one. It's great! Sounds really different from Snailking, which is the only other one I have.

You are going to have fun filling in the blanks! All the records between Snailking and the new double ORO are good to great. If you like what they do there's not a dud in the catalog.
― EZ Snappin, Monday, 29 October 2012 19:51 (eleven years ago) link
That's good to know. Do they tour much/ever?
― these albatrosses have no fear of man (La Lechera), Monday, 29 October 2012 19:57 (eleven years ago) link
Yeah, they've been to the US a couple of times now.
― Ned Raggett, Monday, 29 October 2012 19:59 (eleven years ago) link
They tour Europe all the time. They came to the States once or twice about a decade ago; at least that's what Ned and Nate tell me when they want me to be jealous. I have hopes that they might tour here again now that they have a stable record deal.

See? There's Ned, right on cue, to make me jealous.
― EZ Snappin, Monday, 29 October 2012 20:00 (eleven years ago) link
Ha, I can't make you too jealous! While they've appeared, I've yet to catch them myself, sadly.
― Ned Raggett, Monday, 29 October 2012 20:01 (eleven years ago) link
So I'll hold my real animosity for Nate. :)
Maybe I'll give him an earful when I see him in a few weeks.
― EZ Snappin, Monday, 29 October 2012 20:02 (eleven years ago) link
Well regardless, if I missed them coming through here I'll be disappointed. I probably did miss it, but they won't get past me next time.

I'm so glad you like them. One of my favorite bands of the past decade.
― EZ Snappin, Monday, 29 October 2012 20:21 (eleven years ago) link
I'm digging Opus: Alter, but I didn't like Opus: Primum much. Go figure.
― wronger than 100 geir posts (MacDara), Monday, 29 October 2012 22:46 (eleven years ago) link
It's really one piece and works best that way. Back to back strengthens Primum a lot. I do think Alter is stronger, but some of that comes from completing musical themes began on Primum.
― EZ Snappin, Monday, 29 October 2012 22:53 (eleven years ago) link
The combination of the two is fantastic and going to reach pretty high on my year-end list. I had a long flight back from California last week which finally gave me the opportunity to play them back to back, loud. It was fantastic.

they make me feel like i should be watching a laser planetarium show
but a heavy one
― j., Tuesday, 30 October 2012 03:39 (eleven years ago) link
I did listen to them together in order, but I wasn't grabbed till the Alter songs. Primum for me was just too samey; Alter is more dynamic in contrast, and more interesting to my ears.

Yes, I've been literally slavering for this for a decade!
http://fastnbulbous.com/ufomammut-finally-tours-north-america/
Bring $$ for swag, as they have great t-shirts, and also the 15-year retrospective XV DVD and Magickal Mastery tour live album. Many of us will of course already have the new album by then!

Their last shirt. Will almost certainly have a new Malleus Labs creation made especially for this tour.

i hope they have smaller sizes and also a shirt without a naked lady on it
― groundless round (La Lechera), Friday, 20 February 2015 20:18 (nine years ago) link
They do like the ladies in their art. Not always naked, but others have them licking planets and kissing skeletons. The one art print I have, Vamp, is a tribute to Theda Bara, one of their more tasteful renderings, though when the lights go off she too turns to a skeleton!
― Fastnbulbous, Friday, 20 February 2015 20:30 (nine years ago) link
There should be some cool posters too. A recent one:
