Black Angels, last Thursday at Manchester New Century Hall, a mammoth 23 song set, Thought Alex was under par vocally and seem disinterested, not a sell out crowd but decent turnout. Star of the show was Christain Bland, without him, they really are not very appealing at all. never missed a tour and...

I saw them at Middlewich folk and boat in the summer playing before Cast (who actually were quite good. Sold pretty poorly so they were letting people in very little hence i made the 7 mile pilgramage (actually wanted to watch Gerard Starkie and Ray Chan formerly of Witness, they were great Boo Radl...

I'm halfway through it, a wonderful read, she really does write well. I like her, but thats by not knowing her personally, which is probably the best place to be

Yeah Emma isnt happy about her portayl at all, Phil just doesnt like her

with good reason to be fair

Aquarian-Time

I seldom mention The Verve in conversation, we have done but its when I felt there was a green light during us talking about other bands or my own, (which he is a keen advocate of) He is not someone you can pin down for ages, but full value when you do,, really nice guy. I will ask him next time I s...

Aquarian-Time

Spoke to Si last night. He isnt involved in any current Nick & Pete activities, they are trying to rope him in, but he sounded like he wasnt committing. he asked if it was any good (the most recent recordings) so he hasnt even listened to it :D Had a good chat about Clapham Grand where I recentl...

Aquarian-Time

Kikagaku Moyo-Clapham Grand Got a ticket via the waiting list for this long sold out gig. Really wanted to do this, not just because these guys are not venturing North on their last UK jaunt but also, I have never been to this iconic venue Neither dissapointed. Lovely venue, warm sound, great sight ...

Aquarian-Time

My box set arrived today, even worked from home to make sure I was in and didnt miss it ! Side one thus far and its quite superb. Just what I/we all needed I'm sure. Looking forward to catching up wth a few on here this year at various gigs Pressing is OK on first listen, think would benefit from a ...

Aquarian-Time

I have Ride at Manchester and Glasgow. Mogwai somewhere in Europe, not sure which one yet, Spiritualized but again not sure which one/s to do
osees in Manchester in May, Parquet Courts and The Cure probably. As regards Lovely eggs Joycey, playing with them in July

Aquarian-Time

Few gigs to catch up on (apologies been super busy with life, band, work blah blah) Anyway Monday Echo and the Bunnymen @ The Philarmaronic, Liverpool Good sound, musicians great, set list decent, macs voice OK on the harder edged ones, rough as toast on the more delicate ones. Mac himself was a mas...

Aquarian-Time

I have both GITD CD and original vinyl version, so i intend to play these through prior to listening to my new GITD which is yet again delayed at Piccadilly Records, they say next week now. GITD was never going to end well though was it ? probably should have opted for the black rather than the gimm...

Aquarian-Time

I popped to my local store in Winsford. Got there at 6am. 4th in the queue. He only had 2 mogwai pls so wasn’t taking any chances, duly sniffled that so all good. Also picked up Echo and The Bunnymen, Suede, Wire 10” set, Primal Scream, Kristin Hersh, Warchild 12” and Howe Gelb Then logged on at 6pm...

Aquarian-Time

Yes that's correct mate. Just pay as you go essentially. Magazine is available from a few record stores in uk but minus the 7"

Aquarian-Time

I subscribe to electronic sound mag which is quite superb and you get a free limited 7" each month. Cover star this month is Jason and the 7" is a version on both sides are versions of the Phase tones for dj's I would act fast as these tend to sell out pretty swiftly last month it was Can,...

Aquarian-Time

The listening parties are great, but the replays are far easier, just press start on when ready, pause whenever you want and don't have to keep refreshing and scrolling on your phone endlessly. Enjoyed Belly's debut album in this format at the weekend

Great new re MBV as well. fingers crossed

Aquarian-Time

Yeah I cast most stuff on my tv and with a nice Cambridge Audio sound bar, all sounds and looks great. I also have a HDMI which i take out of my blu ray and into my laptop for the stuff that cant be casted. Essentailly Football on Ifollow and Sky Go , I log into our eldest account (he has moved out ...

Aquarian-Time

Yeah I got the Plankton Watt album Joycey, its Dewey who used to be in Eternal tapestry, its ok, he has better albums in his back catalogue, it just sort of meandered along Listening to a lot of stuff on the Castles in Space and the Woodford Halse label, the latter is mainly cassesttes, (have a new ...

Aquarian-Time

duly pre ordered the 3LP from Piccadilly records, this could be a real treat

Aquarian-Time

Yeah I agree, way too many incidental people introduced, was really hard to keep track, well i couldn't really. His writing isn't too sharp, but it was a perfectly enjoyable read, seemed to skim over the 98 onwards quite quickly though, spent a long time in the formative years

Aquarian-Time

I'm seriously running out of space, too much of a compulsive buyer, but also getting to the stage where stuff just has to go, so much psych by numbers stuff has already gone Gnod, Oscillation, Camera, God Unknown Singles vol 3 (that was all rubbish), Nighbeats, Cult of Dom keller, Dreamtime, BWNIAS,...

Aquarian-Time

Listened to Black Country NR this week, think they may have listened to Spiderland at some point. Really interesting album though, quite enjoyed it, I may grab it on vinyl Working Mens Club, saw them ages ago with a different line up supporting the Liminanas, thought they were good. This album is bo...

Aquarian-Time

oh man to have seen them in 92/93. People always say how jealous they are that i saw the Verve in 95 in small venues (and Glasto) but I try and explain, just what i would have given to have seen them in this golden period. Great footage to be fair as well. Brake lights was kicking around for years c...

Aquarian-Time

Due to buying far more music than i have time to listen to, I have yet to hear this album, I too have the coloured pressing so this is a worry, especially as previous albums have come with a cd or d/l and this came with neither

Aquarian-Time

Yeah I feel your pain. To be fair we have shed 2 guitarists and replaced with one, (all less rock more dream pop, pysch now ) we got about 2 months of rehearsals and writing in our rehearsal space and then the second lockdown hit. This one really annoyed us as we were writing a new song every week (...

Aquarian-Time

Sorry for your loss Joycey, tough times. I hope you find some music to assist you through this. That's my Funeral song as well btw. I shall raise a glass this evening and play this tonight mate in all its majestic beauty

Aquarian-Time

They appear to do a monthly subscription, so I have jumped on that for 52 dollars, order being processed as we speak, then hopefully i can cancel. As i understand it, my next payment is due to come out 30th September, which would be for October, so presumably i can cancel a few days before that. Pre...

Aquarian-Time

Kev..Fear not i like Mirage (an overlooked gem in the Mac canon )

Aquarian-Time

Most years from 1989 to 1997 were pretty solid with stacks of great/classic albums.

Lucky if you get 1 a year now. Good albums are not hard to find, classics, well they just don't happen anymore

Aquarian-Time

Probably the finest bootleg recording I own. The noise that Mccabe's guitar makes is quite jaw dropping. What a band they became between 92 and 95 I have spoken to Si Jones about this gig (shameless name drop but he has become a friend of sorts now, lovely bloke as well) and his memory of the gig is...

Aquarian-Time

pre ordered the special edition of this from Sister ray (i think) everyone else had sold out. This has potential to be a quite some record

Aquarian-Time

Ticket purchased guys. See you there

Aquarian-Time

Still on a Grateful a Dead trip, :shock: When did this happen?!!! I recall one of the LPF's in Olan's, i suggested checking out the Long, Strange Trip doc if you'd even the tiniest interest in the Dead. You replied that you hadn't. Haha you are indeed correct Joycey, alas it was that Documentary th...

Aquarian-Time

I was at that Verve gig in Manchester, what a night that was
Still on a Grateful a Dead trip, so just listened to Garcia, Self titled album from 71. Sublime

Aquarian-Time

Love the venue, bit of a pain in the arse to get to (blame M6, M60 and M62) but worthwhile once there. From memory I have seen Wooden Shjips, Six By Seven, Six Organs Of Admittance, Sleepy Sun, Yo la Tengo, Suede, Thee Oh Sees, Besnard Lakes, Luna, maybe more but i can say all were brilliant shows, ...

Aquarian-Time

I saw Speck Mountain on their only UK tour, I love the song Midnight Sun, they didnt play it but Marie Claire said they needed 2 guitars to make it work, which i does to be fair, so with extra guitarist in tow, she messaged me on twitter saying it was fully rehearsed and ready to go for forthcoming ...

Aquarian-Time

The Humanist live vox duties are being handled by Jimmy Mudriski of Puressence fame. So that was me sold straight away

Aquarian-Time

Proper Ornaments new album
Humanist New album
Nuggett vol 1 box set, vol 2 box set and Children of Nuggets (this is ace) box set, did a deal in Kingbee records
Whilst i was there i got an original mint copy of Death in Vegas Contino sessions

A couple recently Magic Shoppe with support from Kundolini Genie at Peer Hat Manchester Leanne always puts on decent nights and always well attended not far off a full house here. Kundolini Genie are great and worth the admission fee just for the banter between songs, massively derivative but its fe...

Aquarian-Time

Planned thus far

Thumper (Manchester)
Sunstack Jones (on a boat in Chester)
JAMC (Manchester)
Pearl Jam (London, Paris, Krakow)
Humanist (Birmingham)

Thats about it so far. Loads of stuff being announced at Victoria Warehouse, Manchester, WONT BE ATTENDING ANY. HORRIBLE VENUE

Aquarian-Time

Yeah my FB feed is awash with outpourings of grief, terribly sad news. A true innovator.

Aquarian-Time

Yeah I grabbed a copy, its alright, agree though it does get a bit pedestrian and I dont mean in anambient way either. Some tracks are good. Andy bells GLOK album is far superior in my opinion

Aquarian-Time

If everyone is going, then it would be good to catch up with everyone, so I will see nearer the time

Aquarian-Time

Pretty ordinary line up. I will swerve this and instead be at oh sees in Manchester me thinks

WH Lung, Snapped Ankles Vanishing Twin, Sunburned Hamd Of Man all decent and would watch but no comparison and far more expensive than oh sees.

Aquarian-Time

Unlikley mate, they play Manchester 16th, same night as Psych Fest

Aquarian-Time

Next gig is Tyler Childers in Manchester on Jan 18th, then the small matter of Ride in Berlin on Feb 2nd !!

I noticed I hadn't posted about the Ride show in Manchester, probably gig of the year for me.

Aquarian-Time

The highlight for me though is 'Mom's Song'. The kind of tune that makes you want to form a band and then jam out said song for 20 minutes, finally walking off stage leaving the audience a gleaming, beaming wreck. this is also rather close to a dream of mine... rather hampered by my spectacular lac...

Aquarian-Time

Only 23 gigs for me, about half my normal tally (although played 19 gigs myself so that explains the decline in numbers) Finished the year off with a fine Steve Mason show at the Pink Room, Yes, Manchester,. Just Steve, a backing singer and a guy on keys and percussion. Wonderful show, one of those ...

Aquarian-Time

sorry I meant Thumper

Aquarian-Time

I Love the Ride stuff, yeah its not the 1st album, but these guys are about 50 years old and still know how to hit it hard live. That said they should look at a different producer, its just a bit wishy washy at times on record. Lanegan, I may miss as a) its a Sunday b) the album is poo c) I'm out ev...

Aquarian-Time

Quality release that Ad's awesome stuff, cannot fault your thinking on that

Aquarian-Time

Finishing the year with Ride in Manchester, Mark Lanegan (same venue) (although i really cant get into his new album) and Steve Mason @ yes in Manchester.

Aquarian-Time

Rose City Band, W H Lung, Moon Duo, Steve Gunn, Fontaines DC, Murder Capital are all in my top whatever Saw W H Lung last night celebrating their Piccadilly Records Album of the year, a free show at the Night and Day in Manchester, really good band, very synth, Kraut with a good dollop of psych guit...

Missus has no idea of the real cost and that is how it shall remain

Aquarian-Time

Astral Elevator's Psych Rising Festival in Manchester this Saturday, whats even better is we get paid and get some free beers, go on stage first and then i can enjoy all the bands. Sounds like a plan Looking forward to The Kundoline Genie, Servo and The Telescopes If anyone is thinking of going and ...

Aquarian-Time

This album has now been listened to 4 times and has finally cracked it. Tails off slightly at the end, last tune is needlessly 8 minutes and doesn't really go anywhere but so many highlights, play it loud though, you hear so many different layers, far better production than the last LP, just seems h...

Aquarian-Time

Really like this, although Im listening to quite a good chunk of ambient techno so it has a similar if more balearic vibe to it

Aquarian-Time

The Warlocks and The Stevenson Ranch Davidians @ Yes (Pink Room), Manchester Bit of alst minute call to go to this as after a few Bobby H's tantrums over the years, I have had diminishing returns on their shows No need to worry though, this was superb. Best I have seen them, good mix of stuff coveri...

Aquarian-Time

Its a solid 7/10 for me, Yeah the Sonic Youth one, is that 15 minutes ? Its Ok, some good noisy bits on the album that will come over far better live and without that nonsense producer at the helm. Jump Jet is my favourite track and that will be superb live also Eternal Recurrence is pretty shoegaze...

Aquarian-Time

Yeah I forgot Bodega, that was on my list, will check out Viagra Boys too if now clashes. I do think its a pretty varied line up and plenty of stuff I really like so looking forward to it for sure. Going back to YLT, my take is you always need to be close to the front when watching them, due to the ...

Aquarian-Time

To answer and add some thought on YLT last night, i thought it was wonderful, however I was at the front and could hear everything perfectly, my mate went to the bar and said you couldnt hear anything from the floor, so i totally get Runcible's point. The show ended just short of 2 hours and the cha...
