Cool, I'm all on it.

Now playing:

"Bukowski was a jerk!
Berryman was best!
He wrote like wet paper maché
But he went the Hemming-way
Weirdly on wings and with maximum pain
We call upon the author to explain"

I plan on grabbing a few more Williams CDs, and some others from the aformentioned labels. Any recos? (probably won't have all of them, but still...).

Most of her best stuff beyond Black Christ is on the chronological classics series, so if they've got any of those from the mid-40's definitely snatch 'em up: you may like Mary Lou's Mass best though, if BCotA gone blaxploitation sounds up yr alley.

Any Sublime Frequencies? It's my new obsession. The two volumes of psych-pop, etc. from Myanmar are especially good.

They have Zodiac Suite from 1945, and Mary Lou's Mass. I shall acquire both. No Sublime Frequencies tho. I've only heard the first volume of Sumatran Pop Music from them; pretty good.

Yeah, subsequent listens having me thinking it's their best. Yuppies won't be having sex to this one, that's for sure.

________

John Fahey - "When The Catfish is in Bloom"

"Welcome to the Terrordome" - Pharoahe Monch

With each listen I like this album more and more. It's probably my favorite hip hop album released last year.

MGMT - "Electric Feel"

"she was built, like a old bass fiddle"

Hot Skillet Mama – Sun Ra

The Prodigy -- Hotride

Lots and lots of Galaxie 500.

Shelley Hirsch - War of Dreams

Man, the Friedbergers really have snatched most of their post-BB moves from Shelley's book, 'long wif Bongwater.

Agalloch -- "Not Unlike the Waves"

Es - "Kaikkeuden kauneus ja käsittämättömyys"

I <3 Fonal.

Yeah, they're consistently great from what I've heard and I love that cut-and-paste is necessary when mentioning almost any song or album on the label. :) Been meaning to check Es out, but I'm waiting for the mood to strike. I have Sateenkaarisuudelma (longest single word album title ever?)...is anything else worth checking out?

Only got the album that tracks's from (same name), but it's one of the best purchases I've made this year. It's a bit Sigur Ros-y, only way more gauzy/droney. I also have a DVD of experimental Super 8 films by the same guy, which is very much in the same vein as his music.

_________

Flying Saucer Attack - "Beach Lullaby Song"

DSNT/Davis, any reason these guys were overlooked for the shoegaze thread? Not fans?

Ratatat - "Shiller"

Front Line Assembly -- "Bio-Mechanic"

Huh, forgot how great Tactical Neural Implants is...

Eugene McDaniels - Jagger the Dagger

SHIT, why I can't remember where I've heard this sampled?

EDIT: Duh, Stress: the Extinction Agenda. *slaps self*

the 24 Carat Black - 24 Carat Black Theme

Gettin' a huge "Vitamin C" vibe from the opening bassline/rhythm section.
