Primal Scream.

Worm Tamer

ooh the spice must flow eh

saw the cover of this half an hour ago, just stopped laughing

Blame Momus.

re Disc: 2

1. Nothing Is Real / Nothing Is Unreal << great 5 minute krautrock + horns groove song. love it.

2. Requiem For The Russian Tea Rooms << instrumental. sounds like a dark descendant of roy budd. good stuff.

3. Running Out Of Time << more honking sax, lone bass groove + hard left placed echoed vocals .. before flute action and wah wah guitars join in. brilliant.

4. Worm Tamer << nick cave cover. vocals placed on the left side again (same session as previous track ?). slide guitar loop. 5 minutes of layered sonics, harmonica, before kicking in with some fantastically ott guitar noise.

5. Theme From More Light << more slide guitar and atmospherics, more in line with a ry cooder soundtrack. a throwaway couple of minutes, but adds nicely to the flow of this extra disc (i.e. its not just a chunk of disconnected remixes)

6. 2013 (Weatherall Remix) << over 8 minutes of sci-fi kraut-dub excess. the thin drums + deep bass with the tremolo'd vocals before the momentary widescreen production synth/guitar kicks in at 3 minutes. more sax @ 6 minutes. overall the track is a spooked out, lo-fi variation, giving it a pre-virgin era cabaret voltaire feel. really good.

overall : really glad i picked up the 2cd edition.

is the first disc any good though? :D

hah .. well, i think there are enough reviews out there re the album to figure out whether this is something worth spending your hard-earned cash on. personally i this its rather good.
so far, highlight for me is the swamped out psych fug of 'river of pain'.
cant wait to hear this on my home system.

ok.

a few listens in.

this album hits the same sonic spot as the last david holmes 'solo' album, the holy pictures, (if you haven't got it, then do .. its not 'david holmes does dance music' at all) and andrew w's recent collaboration, the asphodells, but is a lot more satisfying than both of those efforts.

this is another album on which the so called established folks involved feel to have genuinely made an effort for their 2013 effort.

see also : bowie, daft punk, qotsa, suede, omd

summary : 2013 = good year.

That's been the most pleasant surprise this year - bands who I thought were pretty much done suddenly bouncing back. Human After All, Beautiful Future and Era Vulgaris were all such crashing disappointments but here we are.

exactly my point DL ..

2013 is the year that people who needed to, raised their game ..

stream. the first two songs are pretty great. the first one more in the party vein of screamadelica, the second one a psychedelic ballad kind of thing.

ok, so about a month ago i made a promise that i broke, which was to listen to XTRMNTR for the first time and report back within the day. i've finally listened to it and it is everything the people on this board said it would be... i love the heaviness and the noisiness which never take away from the catchiness. way better than screamadelica, which is still good, but i can see myself loving this album in a way i do not love screamadelica

Just got around to listening to More Light... fucking hell, this is actually good!

Turn Each Other Inside Out is amazing.

Listened to this a few times a while back, it's an astonishingly produced record, Holmes and Shields have done a great job in rescuing it, but the songs and hooks are really piss-poor, which prevents it from reaching XTRMTR territory let alone Screamadelica level.

Turn Each Other Inside Out is amazing.

nice janitors on the Death Star look they're sporting. Bobby's wacky collar-buttons show he's in charge. No-one else gets the collar-buttons.

wait who's the woman?

which one of those is Mani?

The woman is the new Mani.

Rhythm Nation 2013.

so i bought tix. so excited and i have seen them already five times!

utter utter utter utter cunts

Are they gonna do "Gentle Tuesday" or wot?

has anyone seen them on this tour? i'm going to see them on Sunday in Los Angeles.

getting ready to go tonight, have only heard one song from the new album. still should be fun.

i had the time of my life last night. Primal Scream did not disappoint and see them if they come to your town. it was one of those type of shows were you are so happy to be alive. show started off a bit slow but they really started to groove and so did the audience. i danced my ass off and to songs like "Rocks" which was pretty surprising.

bakers keep baking
plumbers keep plumbing
miners keep mining
mimes keep miming

rain keeps raining
sharks keep sharking
stores keep storing
boxes keep boxing

storks keep storking
forks keep forking
rice keeps ricing
spice keeps spicing

I think 2013 is the SINGLE OF THE YEAR.

I like the album too, but I've got a bit bored of it, apart from 2013.

I like DISC 2.

Thank you.

I have no idea what's been a single this year and what hasn't, but I do love 2013, and about three other tracks on this record, and have enjoyed the whole thing considerable more than I thought I would. Turn Each Other Inside Out is my favourite.

hey this is pretty good!

cheeseball me sort of wishes this whole album were like It's Allright, It's OK

Does anyone have any secret insider info on why they cancelled their entire North American tour?

http://www.theguardian.com/music/2014/sep/11/primal-scream-death-guitarist-robert-young

bummer

My assumption was that he had a massive drug problem (and by Primal Scream standards) which lead to the sabbatical, so I guess this isn't that surprising. Which kind of makes it sadder.

Boab (tearfully): "Wan o' th' immortals.. o' course he's deid noo."

Was wondering why he was not on the last record. :(
he was not lookin too healthy in that screamadelica doc
RIP

Just heard.

Rip Throb, irreplaceable (but they replaced him anyway)
