allow me to be the only one to disagree w/ the first response up there saying Pere Ubu (?, *snore* overrated critics fave) is better. other than the crap comparison made, Deceit is a great record and Camberwell Now were certainly not boring (esp. the Ghost Trade record).

It took me a while, but I love the Tago Mago tape very much now.

2. I love how tribal Deceit is. It reminded for a second of Animal Collective.

I've finally heard some of the Peel Sessions. Fuck, they're intense and loud and manic and visceral and bloody they're amazing!

Dear friends and subscribers,
Here's an update.
Almost everything is ready now; we wait only the final selection and mastering of the live CD. Current projections, with fingers crossed, point at late April, so please don't worry if your box hasn't arrived before then. You will be the first to receive it when it's done, promise.
Sorry, as ever, for the delays.

Saw Hayward in Kyoto in the late 90s, having never heard of This Heat. Fantastic show. Just him drumming and singing and playing cassettes and flailing around with cassette players, really doing his own thing. Crowd was so into it he got kind of choked up by all the mad Japanese music geek love.

I've always enjoyed This Heat, but its only in the last few years that they REALLY hit home for me. Their music has tremendous depth. So, even if you haven't dug it in the past, give em another shot. Highly recommended.

The preview frame for the YouTube makes Hayward look like Jeremy Clarkson.

took a first date to the charlie hayward project 'bass drum'
absolutely fucking divine, the guy's a genius & the woman on the korg (whose name I am trying to find - it's on none of the links when I google 'charles hayward' 'bass drum' ffs!) was brilliant too

But what did your date think?
― Gerald McBoing-Boing, Friday, 19 September 2014 01:16 (nine years ago) link
extremely strong approval
the support act was some boring shit dalston indie but that's to be expected, bargained for almost

there's some other this heat news of great magnitude imminent.

aaaaaa that makes me very excited
― sleeve, Thursday, 19 November 2015 21:13 (eight years ago) link
at one point there was a killer run of live shows on Dimeadozen and I think I grabbed them all, I guess the Krefeld tape or the Diekuuroh sessions could still be reissued as well
― sleeve, Thursday, 19 November 2015 21:15 (eight years ago) link
wow, check out this live show filmed after Gareth Williams left in 1982, the band as a 4-piece

saw this on FB from them: "also working on an extended version of the stuff we did with Mario Diekuuroh for release 2017"

That's cool, but also saw on facebook that they're doing Lifetones. Don't know which one stir's excited about! Both I imagine.

I love those show links because Trefor Goronwy joins them on bass, and I always wish This Heat had employed a real bassist on most of their recordings. Such a great band, and Hayward is such a powerhouse on drums, pairing him with a good bassist makes them all that much better. haha love the stare of death gives the camera around 5:45
