New Seu Sange EP, featuring 1 new track and 4 remixes of Oh Death tunes. Sonic Boom has one and was apparently the first person to ask could he remix something off the album. Being a sad collector i ordered the tape just 'cos of Sonic's contribution

I keep coming back to this album. It suits so many moods. Quality release

The Black Angels, Button Factory, Dublin: I'd place this somewhere inbetween niamhm and Aquarian Time's experiences. 1hr 50min set with a short break around the 70min mark. One of the guitarists was wearing a black L&G t-shirt.I've seen them better and worse so a solid gig i would say. Shame, B...

Brothers and Sisters what are your thoughts on 'Brothers and Sisters'? I've always found his material hit and miss but this definitely falls into the former category. Uplifting songs and excellent production. The kind of album that will reveal more with each listen. I suspect maximum enjoyment would...

Spiritualized playing this year: https://www.greenman.net/line-up/2023/

It's not a bad lineup really. Not earthshattering but i'd be happy with it over a weekend. Certainly when compared to the dross being served up by Irish festivals this year.

I've long had the idea that Honey originated from the desecending sequence in Rollercoaster. No idea if that's the case though.

Love the compere at the start. Different times.

Das Koolies. They appear to be SFA minus Gruff. https://daskoolies.bandcamp.com/releases

The way the band used dynamics to carefully build up during Sway sounds really raw - much more like a live Spacemen 3 arrangement, as opposed to what we hear just a couple of years later on Fucked Up Inside. Walking With Jesus similarly sounds more like a Spacemen 3 version, with a very strict 4/4 ...

A year today. It seems longer.

Yep, thumbs up from me too and i say that as someone who has avoided them for the past 10-15 years both live and on record. I can't explain why but when they announced a Dublin date for April i took the plunge. Even after my gut said no. But after listening to the new album i'm glad i did grab a ti...

Brief listen to the new Yo La Tengo and rather liking it. Seems more alive and vibrant particularly compared to the last one which i found a bit listless The new YLT is great. Definitely a big improvement over the last full-length (Riot), which I also found quite boring. Yep, thumbs up from me too ...

I've paid a bit more attention to the BJM since then, have been gifted a few albums for my birthday today, and would definitely go and see them again (probably on my own!). Doesn't everyone know what they are likely to get at these gigs? Isn't it like going to see The Fall in the old days, where th...

The Brian Jonestown Massacre, The Academy, Dublin: Not sure what the rest of the tour has been like but this definitely goes down as one of the worst BJM gigs i've seen. It was a fully sold out show in front of a very mixed demographic. The set was a little over 2 hours but i would estimate only ab...

The Residents, Button Factory, Dublin : First gig of 2023 for me and the band's debut Irish performance. I don't know much about The Residents music but my gut told me i probably wouldn't enjoy this, judging by what i had heard. They're an act who i've enjoyed the concept of rather than the reality...

Incidently these chaps have recorded the most 1990s Spiritualized era sounding track I think I've ever heard from the record before Ad Astra https://acidrooster.bandcamp.com/track/remote-places Well worth checking out!

Congrats! You gotta tell us more though

Are you mates with D&B or is this something they just do now?

Nothing wrong with Blur. The early 90's were great with the BritPop movement and their rivalry with Oasis, unless your in Stuart Braithwaite's opinion that " Blur is Shite. " Well i'm not a fan but The Waeve gig piqued my interest. If it had been in a larger venue and an extra fiver on th...

Unexpected news. Here's a link for pre-order of Glow in the dark vinyl: https://thrilljockey.com/products/garden-party

Even though i am not, nor have ever been, a fan of Blur, today i found myself buying a ticket to see Graham Coxon's new project The Waeve. What i've heard sounds alright and i guess the fact that it's a relatively cheap gig in a small venue helped greatly. Still, i am slightly perplexed by my action...

Another act that suffers from being over-prolific. The lp with Lee Perry is the only one i've listened to in the past 15-20 years. Have great intentions to listen to each new release but it never happens, there are always more pressing aural engagements.

That Pye Corner Audio album is very good alright. Dave had it in his top albums too. A lot of folk here would like it i think; uplifting, droning, ambient electronica. Haze Loops really reminds me of early Spiritualized, the mood of it rather than the exact sounds. The Sonic Boom remix 10" 'Let...

Come On Die Young is an early favourite, a bit more downbeat than the others I've listened to. It's Wiki page suggests it's not as well thought of as some others, that was a surprise to me.

Off the top of my head, in no particular order:

Thumper - Delusions Of Grandeur
Gilla Band - Most Normal

Oneida - Success

There's probably others that i've forgotten about.

Anyone else read Miki's autobiography? It came out at the end of last year and I got it for Xmas. It's well written and an interesting read.

The Velvet Underground - Loaded: Sounding like one of the greatest albums ever made right now. Which of course it is.

I reckon anyone having a session or two over the next week should give this mix an airing at some point in the proceedings. I wouldn't be into all of it but there's enough to do the job. More for the dancers than chinstrokers.

England v France, game of the tournament for me. Quality from start to finish as two heavyweights slugged it out. England on top for most of it but alas not to be.

I've heard a couple of their albums and liked them. White Light Fever is one of them, can't remember the other. Saw them at LPF in 2017 where i got a distinct BJM vibe but with added keyboards. Again, i enjoyed them.

Great gesture Spaceline. Not sure i'd have fast enough internet to upload it all but would be interested in a usb chain. Although the last time we did that, for videos, it got lost in transit somewhere. Or someone nicked it.
