For Against C/D, S/D

nice one

Great read Ned. I love that Captured Tracks is doing such great work reissuing all of this stuff, but I do wish they'd do an occassional CD release for these box sets too.

The CD versions were already out on Words on Music so this is more exactly for the vinyl crowd.

the song Coalesced. now that is how you write a fucking coda.

Gotcha! Thanks for clarifying. I guess I was assuming again based on the Cleaners From Venus sets. Or are those out on CD somewhere too?

new material forthcoming in the form of a runnings solo record

It's out now! And really good. All my moody gay summer anthems are on here. It's basically what you'd expect a Harry Dingman-less For Against album to sound like in 2016, but also something of a departure. If, like me, you love Bob Mould's Modulate...

Also Runnings has a way of writing lyrics where you can't tell if he's singing about relationship troubles or just honoring the other person's layers of unknowability. He's recently married I seem to recall.

Quick note that a PledgeMusic campaign to get the 90s albums back in print is at 99% with just a couple of days to go.

Filled in a corner by ordering the repress of _Shelf Life_ on CD, the one album I've never physically owned. So hey, help 'em out if you can!

Quick addition that they made their goal so these will be coming along.

got those 90s reissues in the mail today -- sounding great :)
