down with flu so lay in bed and listened through these like 3 times in a row
//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/02958c11ac4e24d7f92780cd9968205d/7693136pretty necessary contemporary garage psych rock with some pretty frantic guitar.Mike Stax of Ugly Things appears on backing vocals . He has a Bo Diddley tribute band with the guitarist, or did. //e.snmc.io/i/300/s/adc2134bb192cf605c99a239768c0508/7121896so faqr have listened through the 2nd disc the one that's All Of Us and contemporary singles and outtakes.Glad to find this isn't the mono/stereo set taht i thought it was for a while cos I don't rally want to listen to the same lp twice in a row.About time i got the 60s stuff in full have enjoyed this band for a few decades.
//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/c09eb1f007f1875f2c61dfce714ff67a/1245586I hadn't heard this before today and possibly only picked it up to complete the set of lps. It's pretty interesting though. Different to Daevid Allen era anyway. Atmospheric mainly instrumental material. Wort6h hearing, but I think the 2cds may be limited editions so may be necessary to grab them soon if you want one.

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/8574333be10f3bf022840ea34508f30d/2727203the 2nd cd, the bsides one. Covers quit ea bit of ground including one track the Action covered in "I Love You (Yeah), a cover of Wade in The Water and up Up and Away which is better known by the 5th Dimension amids about an hour and a quarter of soul as it developed overthe 60s.Noice
//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/5fcd7c1a1e14a59e51c3fcf46b7042eb/1832466Scandinavian droneadelia , lovely. I assume the first side of the record was short songs and the 2nd side is 2 long ones. Pretty good throughout . & about time i had a physical copy of this. Since I've had the lps either side by the related combos for the last couple of decades.
//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/02958c11ac4e24d7f92780cd9968205d/7693136do think this is pretty phenomally good. Interesting mix of pop-garage like a remains/Cryan Shames, a bit of MC5 and probably a bit of the Ramones alongside the snarling frenetic guitar which i think the band should be famous for.Have been wanting something by this bunch for ages. So glad to get this. I think there was a cd of the previous lp so will try to get hold of that.THink its inventive enough and energetic enough to stand on its own so would recommend it to people who like anything in that area.

One of my neighbors who produces avant garde theater recently threw out a bunch of promos from a Dutch hip-hop label called Off Da Dome Wreckords, a number of which are apparently soundtracks from musicals by a theater company called Made In Da Shade. A bunch of different vocalists and lyricists are featured, but it sounds like the same group of people produced most of this stuff.
It's alternative hip-hop and some vaguely R&B songs, mostly in English but occasionally in Dutch, all pretty DIY and all very Y2K. There's an interesting mix of live instrumentation, including acoustic drums, loops and homegrown samples. But the most surprising element is the guitar textures, with a number of tracks featuring prominent use of the Digitech Space Station pedal- a multi-fx from the late 90's with novelty 'alien' presets and a synth string pad sound that's mostly associated with shoegaze bands (think Slowdive's 'Souvlaki Space Station').
My favorite so far is the soundtrack to a musical called V.O.O.D.O. but one of the other releases came in a numbered, screen printed LP sleeve and contained a splatter painting on cardboard, but no LP. Instead, there was a label sampler CD inside.

I slept on this one for a long time, it was the last proper Earth album lacking in my collection. I know it's always been sort of the outlier, but as a big stoner rock guy I can dig it. One of my favorite Hendrix covers and I usually really don't like Hendrix covers.

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/9f2ba0b00110c9bacc53fdabf839de37/2375657great hillbilly blues stuff. I think he was another artist taht learnt from a black source or rather had a black mentor. & then went off and had his own apparently original take on things but it definitely sounds like structure is similar to blues recordings i know from the time. Recordings are from late 20s.Also sounds like this echoes in material I know from the 60s. I think I first heard about him in the words of a Gun Club article from around 1983. Whoever wrote that seemed to fill about half the article with names of blues and hillbilly artists that I always meant to track down and only picked up a handfull of.Also I picked up the Rough Guide to JImmie Rodgers over Xmas which came with a bonus disc of early country stuff including a track by Hutchison that was pretty haunting.Anyway good stuff, I missed this when it was widely available but found a good price on Discogs. THink it was close to current list when other prices were rising though.

I think I knew his work mainly in terms of covers by the 2 tone era artists. I know a couple of Specials and a Beat here at least.Set is also interesting because of some of the work he covers here. The Stones' Salt of The Earth, Donovan's There Is A Mountain, a few country things and the Beatles' Come Together.NIce compilation anyway. I was thinking the current Trojan Best ofs were repackagings of the Sanctuary era Trojan 2cds but this doesn't seem to be tracklisted chronologically which those did seem to be.Good stuff though.

Not consciously taken in the contents though.

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/be67fa60c4f00824ae4a04ae081bcd0f/1739558THis arrived yesterday so I haven't really had a chance to hear it. Only found out about its existence over Xmas and had been wondering what exactly had been being played down at the club this partially represents. Wish I d got down there a lot more in the late 80s I think it coincided with the time i started hitching widely so both this club and the Son Of redneck country place behind Selfridges became things i was only at a few times instead of absolutely regularly.Did love the sounds though.& thought it a great coincidence taht when i went out looking for some decent music while having a pint yesterday I chanced on somebody djing some stuff that overlapped with this.

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/be67fa60c4f00824ae4a04ae081bcd0f/1739558Found out about this over Xmas, either didn't hear about it when it was easily available or have forgotten about it. BUt must have been reminded of Gilles Petterson or Eddie Pillar or something over the holiday. this has some stuff i think I remember from the time. certainly rings a bell.May possibly have a photo of me at teh back of a crowd too. Did love that club and wish I'd been going down there longer than I was. Think it must have coincided with my starting hitching around the UK to see bands. Same is true of Son of Redneck the early-country club behind Selfridges of the same era. Loved both of them when i got the chance to go there.
//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/1ad1b5009e776627e40e38ea11d5e3a8/61033412cd compi of a lot of mainly late 60s early 70s material by Hag. Great stuff, the type of material Gram parsons seriously recommended.Pretty mellow sounding great not countrypolitan stuff. NoiceSo far its been disc 1 ,may have to swap over to disc 2 soon.
//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/e5f38b46b7f51b85fee1a68e5c8d49f9/39316342nd lp by prog band. A bit more ambient tahn I thought it would be.Do like this lot anyway. The early live stuff is pretty great too.

XP I thought White Heaven was interesting but not exactlky what I'd been lead to expect. It reminded me a lot more of Galxie 500 than the QMS/Sabbath hybrid the forcedexposure review that turned me onto it had suggested.I think the live stuff from around teh time gets a lot closer to that FE review.NOt sure what is available by them . Was there a box set released over the last couple of years?
Marble Sheep the band lead by one time White Heaven guitarist Ken Matsutaini is also really worth checking out.
as is the band Silence which is related to the Japanese band Ghost who are themselves quite awesome.
