i'm writing a short review of it right now actually. wish i had some friggin' weed. it is wunderbar.

scott seward (scott seward), Tuesday, 20 January 2004 01:43 (twenty years ago) link

i thought you were listening to your beloved Kenna album?

An album, not a box set. I am currently listening to the second disc of the Pet Shop Boys' Behaviour reissue.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 20 January 2004 01:44 (twenty years ago) link

yes ! , Judee Sill, yes !!


brad laner, Tuesday, 20 January 2004 01:46 (twenty years ago) link

I don't know when it's coming out. or even if it is out. it was dropped from the heavens on to my head by winged elves.

PSB rule. there are no two ways about it. see, ned, i like most of the stuff you listen to. i really do. you and your boy corgan i'll never understand for the life of me, but such is life.

scott seward (scott seward), Tuesday, 20 January 2004 01:47 (twenty years ago) link

we are both Medicine fans, aren't we Ned?

scott seward (scott seward), Tuesday, 20 January 2004 01:49 (twenty years ago) link

after downloading, i can vouch that Red Hash is indeed wonderful.

I don't get yr Perry Leopold fascination tho, scott - i mean, it's actually a little too straight / way too 'cosmic' for me at points. For cracked 'where are they now?' loners, i much prefer Vulcan, Mark Tucker, or Bob whatsisname - you know, the guy who did Juppiter Transmissions...

Er um uh. (But I do like Brad because he's cool. I just like the Electric Company more.)

Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 20 January 2004 01:50 (twenty years ago) link

But anyway:

PSB rule. there are no two ways about it

Yes, my friend. *currently lost in the perfect disco of "Bet She's Not Your Girlfriend"*

Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 20 January 2004 01:52 (twenty years ago) link

yeah, but roger, you are a big smashing pumkins fan too. what am i to make of that? :)

i've never actually heard Christian Lucifer, just Experiments In Metaphysics. I dunno, it has a certain quality, a wisful sad thing going on underneath. i dig that.

scott seward (scott seward), Tuesday, 20 January 2004 01:52 (twenty years ago) link

THAT WE ARE LEGION. Now, a guitar solo.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 20 January 2004 01:53 (twenty years ago) link

what a troublemaker you are scott...

thanks Ned, I like Electric Company more as well ( today anyways...)

brad laner, Tuesday, 20 January 2004 01:55 (twenty years ago) link

hahahaah!! tho i wouldn't say I'm a Smashing Pumpkins 'fan' (counting a Zwan radio promo I own a total of 3 albums Billy Corgan plays on), I do indeed believe that Siamese Dream, sound for sound and song for song, is better than any weirdo psych record you or I are likely to encounter in our time. But then, apples and oranges...

roger adultery (roger adultery), Tuesday, 20 January 2004 01:57 (twenty years ago) link

And once again happiness is had. :-)

Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 20 January 2004 01:57 (twenty years ago) link

Scott - I think you'd dig Christian Lucifer - slightly more bent, tho slightly more new age-y in places too

roger adultery (roger adultery), Tuesday, 20 January 2004 02:01 (twenty years ago) link

I dug that first Electric Company album. that was some wild stuff. Have you guys heard that Old Bombs record? That's my fave right now. I actually wrote a review today for that, but chuck already had one coming so that's ten minutes i'll never get back. maybe i should post it here.

So Roger, from what you are saying about Siamese Dream it makes me think that there is an instrumental version out there somewhere that i should here? Cuz that's the only way you'll get me to hear the whole thing. and you are wrong about the weirdo psych thing. Heck, even this new ghost album beats corgan by a mile. on his best day. with ghost bound and gagged like hentai vixens.

scott seward (scott seward), Tuesday, 20 January 2004 02:09 (twenty years ago) link

Mm, Ghost/Pumpkins double bill, very nice idea. Sorry, you were saying?

http://www.my-mistake.net/infinitepics/billy/billy401.jpg

WORSHIP THE GOTHIC RIFF MOTHERFUCKERS. Wait I'm losing perspective again. Great outfit, though.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 20 January 2004 02:11 (twenty years ago) link

gothic riffs...oy. this from the man who has never heard katatonia. Do you even own an Anathema record, Ned? (this is fun. i feel like a pumpkin troll or something)

scott seward (scott seward), Tuesday, 20 January 2004 02:13 (twenty years ago) link

Never dug Ghost (though I like Lamarabirabi or whatever that one is called). I dig the Paradiswartz Duul-type hippie chants / etc, but songwise, Batoh's so...tuneless. And boring. Now, Nagisa Ni Te, that's a band.

Woo! Education, see, I learn by osmosis. I do rather like that Misery Loves Co. cover of "The Drowningman" but apparently I'm the only one?

Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 20 January 2004 02:14 (twenty years ago) link

Aguaturbia almost matches the Pumpkins at their best. ditto for Tarkus. I get the same doper chills listening to all three. Music is awesome.

roger adultery (roger adultery), Tuesday, 20 January 2004 02:16 (twenty years ago) link

he is not boring. you should see them live. they are a whole other animal. unless they are in temple bell mode of course.

Now Marble Sheep, THERE was a band. unholy of holy psychnoisemonsters that they were once upon a time.

scott seward (scott seward), Tuesday, 20 January 2004 02:18 (twenty years ago) link

yes!! and Overhang Party!!

roger adultery (roger adultery), Tuesday, 20 January 2004 02:19 (twenty years ago) link

Did you ever hear about the Terrastock 4 show they did when they had about a 10 minute set because of Seattle's 'we close at 2 am without exception' bar rules? Tore the roof off the place, the surrounding buildings, Pike Street Market...

Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 20 January 2004 02:19 (twenty years ago) link

Ned, have you ever heard Judgement by Anathema? You gotta hear it. Siegbran and those doom-purists will poo-poo it for the Floydian overtones, but don't you listen to them!

scott seward (scott seward), Tuesday, 20 January 2004 02:20 (twenty years ago) link

Noted, good sir. What label? Century Media?

Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 20 January 2004 02:21 (twenty years ago) link

the song Judgement or the whole album?

roger adultery (roger adultery), Tuesday, 20 January 2004 02:22 (twenty years ago) link

Like i said on that other thread somewhere though, High Rise make mincemeat out of most of this stuff.at least live anyway.

the album Judgement.(Music For Nations-2000)

scott seward (scott seward), Tuesday, 20 January 2004 02:23 (twenty years ago) link

Roger, i should mention that i like that blood group disc my bro gave me. yur gal has one purty voice.

scott seward (scott seward), Tuesday, 20 January 2004 02:24 (twenty years ago) link

*thinks 'Now I *did* tell Roger what I thought of it too, didn't I?'*

Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 20 January 2004 02:24 (twenty years ago) link

Oh hahahah thanks. Yeah she's the only thing i like about that band. The new one is better. I'll send you one! email me your address (you too Ned - i still owe you for Opal)

It wasn't THAT amazing. Major Stars, Charalambides, Bardo Pond, Moe Tucker, and Crome Syrcus were all far better / more entertaining than Ghost. Personally, my favorite were the hot dogs sold outside.

Russ, Sunday, 8 February 2004 06:18 (twenty years ago) link

It wasn't THAT amazing

As I don't even remember Crome Syrcus, for instance, we'll have to differ. You are right about the hot dogs, though.

Surprisingly strong after 44 years!

Ornate Coleman (Moodles), Tuesday, 3 December 2013 15:32 (ten years ago) link

Ha, hadn't seen this thread was already revived. Nite Jewel is on the album as well as Julia Holter.

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 3 December 2013 15:34 (ten years ago) link

amazing version of parallelograms at the end of that live session

Yeah I was just listening to that. Incredible stuff.

Linda Perhacs
So happy to announce that "The Soul Of All Natural Things" will be released on Asthmatic Kitty Records March 4th 2014. Here is the first song you get to hear... "Freely" along with a breathtaking video by Kyle Safieh http://youtu.be/3n-nWy6fB00 after 44 years. We have a new album!

Stevolende, Tuesday, 3 December 2013 19:58 (ten years ago) link

very nice. sounds like it could be off parallelograms, which i have no objection to.

Merdeyeux, Tuesday, 3 December 2013 20:08 (ten years ago) link

Hot damn, just got the promo sent me. Listening now...

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 11 December 2013 17:25 (ten years ago) link

wahhhhh, not fair!

diego floorplan (NickB), Wednesday, 11 December 2013 17:32 (ten years ago) link

At the risk of irritating you further, it's very good so far. It's not a sequel to Parallelograms, rather a complementary work after all these years. Just enough subtle hints of things that wouldn't have been around in 1970.

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 11 December 2013 17:37 (ten years ago) link

two months pass...

Not loving The Soul of All Natural Things on first listen. It's a little too delicate--it sounds a little too much like a grandmother singing lullabies to a preschooler.

mox twelve, Tuesday, 18 February 2014 22:51 (ten years ago) link

one month passes...

just heard her new stuff, think it's pretty beautiful. i totally forgot who this woman was and i didn't pick up any ... grandmotherly tones to it. thought it sounded like a new take on those old obscuro psych songs from the late 60s/early 70s ... like Saffron, etc.
