two reviews of kila kila kila:

"the new ooioo record is like Sun Ra meets Serge Gainsbourge A nite remember a day forgotten shooting out into space on a breath, a pregnant pause and then a skidding lift where you land no one knows... "
-Kim Gordon

"In a perfect world, Roger Dean would be banging on yoshimi's door, begging to do thier covers, their stage set, their shoes. I can't quite place why OOIOO make me think of Yes, especially as i like OOIOO a lot more. but i guess it's because OOIOO fufill what i always hoped Yes would do for me, elegantly articulate endless planes of otherness. i don't know what that means, but i hoped for it! OOIOO's new albums sounds even more assured than their previous records, and sounds more intimate, up front and cozy, right in your front room. so before they arrive, clean up, put away your laundry, and was the dishes, they need as much space as you can give them."
-Jim O'Rourke.

Sun Ra doesn't need to meet anyone else in order to be interesting.

kila kila kila domestic release on thrill jockey in february 04...

still no domestic release of the epic masterwork gold and green

― gygax! (gygax!), Tuesday, 25 November 2003 18:05 (twenty years ago) link

I got this record shortly after my post from the summer. Can't say I thought it was that interesting. I probably should listen to it again; haven't heard it since listening a couple of times after I bought it.

― dleone (dleone), Tuesday, 25 November 2003 18:12 (twenty years ago) link

i have a good suggestion, treat the first 2 songs as bonus tracks.

or should that say "boredoms"? O_o

― gygax! (gygax!), Tuesday, 3 February 2004 19:28 (twenty years ago) link

Yeah. And what is it with them and the UK?? I mean, come on, at least come to NYC or something.

― dleone (dleone), Tuesday, 3 February 2004 19:29 (twenty years ago) link

this is awesome news!

― marcg (marcg), Tuesday, 3 February 2004 19:52 (twenty years ago) link

Jon Williams to thread.

― Ian Johnson (orion), Tuesday, 3 February 2004 21:32 (twenty years ago) link

holy fucking yeah!

― toby (tsg20), Tuesday, 3 February 2004 22:27 (twenty years ago) link

So, are Lightning Bolt going to play on the floor? In a snotty London venue? Alright!

― udu wudu (udu wudu), Tuesday, 3 February 2004 22:33 (twenty years ago) link

Oh, I wish I had never seen this.

― dean! (deangulberry), Tuesday, 3 February 2004 22:38 (twenty years ago) link

HI GUYS! Do you know anything about Eye coming to NYC for something to do with John Zorn's birthday?

Also, Damo Suzuki is playing with Yammato in Japan :(

― Jon Williams (ex machina), Tuesday, 3 February 2004 22:39 (twenty years ago) link

Eye performed with Zorn in a duo show right around the time of the Zorn 50th birthday shows at Tonic last year. Zorn told me he recorded something for him as well for possible release on Tzadik.

― dleone (dleone), Tuesday, 3 February 2004 22:43 (twenty years ago) link

ahhh wicked!

― prima fassy (bob), Tuesday, 3 February 2004 22:54 (twenty years ago) link

why do they hate us so?

― strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Tuesday, 3 February 2004 22:56 (twenty years ago) link

I'm still mad about that. I hate everyone who has the ability to go to that show.

― dean! (deangulberry), Tuesday, 3 February 2004 23:09 (twenty years ago) link

Yea, what have the Brits done recently to contribute awesome music to the world? NOTHING.

― Jon Williams (ex machina), Tuesday, 3 February 2004 23:12 (twenty years ago) link

let's kick england's ass!!!

― el sabor de gene (yournullfame), Wednesday, 4 February 2004 01:15 (twenty years ago) link

JON: DON'T MAKE BLANKET STATEMENTS. IT IS BAD FORM.

― Ian Johnson (orion), Wednesday, 4 February 2004 02:30 (twenty years ago) link

NO, REALLY ENGLAND SUX

― Jon Williams (ex machina), Wednesday, 4 February 2004 15:32 (twenty years ago) link

They don't deserve that show.

― dean! (deangulberry), Wednesday, 4 February 2004 17:52 (twenty years ago) link

MAYBE COLDPLAY CAN OPEN FOR THE BOREDOMS HAHAHA

― Jon Williams (ex machina), Wednesday, 4 February 2004 18:31 (twenty years ago) link

(recent-ish) British stuff that is good: Skullflower/Sunroof!, Vibracathedral Orchestra&offshoots.. probably more. Ned would know.

― IAN J0HNSOPNNN, Wednesday, 4 February 2004 18:38 (twenty years ago) link

I know a few things, and you've definitely named some of the best -- let us not forget the wonderful Wickham-Smith/Youngs axis.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 4 February 2004 19:02 (twenty years ago) link

Guapo might appeal to fans of Boredoms, and also happen to include ILM's udu wudu as a member (I think).

― dleone (dleone), Wednesday, 4 February 2004 19:04 (twenty years ago) link

no shit?

(guapo's "great sage" is insane and brilliant. "five suns" is like the second coming of magma.)

unchanged since 2001

i meant to point out the only releases since the '99 VCN box are those 4 remix albums.

Torturing yourself isn't going to help.

― dleone (dleone), Friday, 6 February 2004 02:47 (twenty years ago) link

sad, sad truth.

― gygax! (gygax!), Friday, 6 February 2004 05:25 (twenty years ago) link

finally saw 'ichi the killer' last night. I can see why maybe the Karera Musication soundtrack doesn't work on it's own, but in the context of the film, absolutely fantastic.

(wasn't my favorite miike film overall but still worth seeing).

― (Jon L), Friday, 6 February 2004 05:36 (twenty years ago) link

VCN is such a fantastic record, they can't just leave us hanging like this! Is it just down to a bad deal with the label or is there something else afoot?

― Hayden Nicholls (Pop the Weasel), Friday, 6 February 2004 06:00 (twenty years ago) link

scroll up. then crawl into a fetal position every night.

― gygax! (gygax!), Friday, 6 February 2004 06:07 (twenty years ago) link

two weeks pass...

if you are a fan of eYe's color artwork/colaging, i HIGHLY recommend this book:

― gygax! (gygax!), Wednesday, 25 February 2004 17:20 (twenty years ago) link

sp: collaging

― gygax! (gygax!), Wednesday, 25 February 2004 17:21 (twenty years ago) link

oh btw gygax, have you heard the July 2002 Brighton show? Probably the best boot, as far as sound quality, I've heard. They play the same piece they did at ATP.

― dleone (dleone), Wednesday, 25 February 2004 18:35 (twenty years ago) link

nope, i'm not a huge fan of "live recordings" but i can make an exception in this case. are you slsk?

― gygax! (gygax!), Wednesday, 25 February 2004 19:51 (twenty years ago) link

Anywhere to get that cheaper?

― Sir Hiss! a.k.a. Jon Williams in brrrrrrrrrrrRochester! (ex machina), Wednesday, 25 February 2004 21:14 (twenty years ago) link

come to my house and scan it?

― gygax! (gygax!), Wednesday, 25 February 2004 21:41 (twenty years ago) link

yes, on slsk as dleone

― dleone (dleone), Wednesday, 25 February 2004 23:36 (twenty years ago) link

their booking agent makes the following claim:

"Even though some of the Boredoms left and new Boredoms arrived, that only helped them all to embrace the creative possibilities of change."

(sorry dleone)

Is the Minga and Eye ♥ 7" any good?

― BICICLETA EMOCIONAL!!! (Jon Williams) (ex machina), Monday, 1 March 2004 21:52 (twenty years ago) link

you might still be able to buy my copy from CLAMAZON DOT COM

― gygax! (gygax!), Monday, 1 March 2004 21:54 (twenty years ago) link

for less than $9.50 USD?
