Spiritualized

sunray

Wasn't doubting their credentials.....didn't know if it was a forum user that wanted to reveal themselves. Anyway, I think, if anything, discovering all these new rareties has probably put me off more than motivated me into collecting more Spiritualized/Spaceman stuff. I guess Im just toucing the t...

I bought a Timeshard album from a record shop and when i got it home and took it out of the sleeve i was greeted with the sight of half a record, the other half still in the sleeve. They'd obviously sold it to me like that, luckily i was a regular and there was no trouble in changing it for me.

To be honest the ideas behind this thread suck a big one. There's a band you really like, you love their records, you see them live, they're not good, you then dislike and can't play the once loved records?? Jesus. What does it matter? The records are still good, surely. Couldn't agree more. I hone...

Excellent find, just had a listen here: http://www.myspace.com/cloudlandcanyon

The track "Lie In Light" comes across like a remix of Shine A Light

Plus, one of them plays with King Khan. What's not to like?

sunray

Acid Mothers Temple and the Cosmic Inferno are the greatest incarnation of the AMT family imo. Full on space rock, no arsing about.

Saw Lawrence play a gig with Brendan Perry from Dead Can Dance in a very small local boozer sometime in the 90s, got talking to him afterwards and he seemed very surprised that i knew he had played with Levitation. Nice chap.

Email sent off to Thrill Jockey.

Yeah i'm really looking forward to Mugstar's new one, great band and hopefully playing their first Irish gigs the beginning of June, they're currently looking for a promoter to put them on. Fingers crossed.
Dom Keller are decent too.

sunray

I'm going to gamble and hold off for extra dates, by that time you'll be in the groove and all sound issues will have been sorted.

Got this a couple of weeks ago, it looks better in the photos than in the hand. That's not to say it doesn't look good, it just seems nicer on screen. Good album though but no download code supplied with mine, there's supposed to be a code that gives you the vinyl songs plus the 3 different tunes th...

sunray

Anyway other than torrents? Someone want to do a trade for DVD or upload some other way? Sorry to be a pain.

sunray

I'd like to see that in Kilkenny Cathedral.

sunray

I've only ever seen them once, headlining Glastonbury in 1998. I think Riot City Blues is appalling, and Beautiful Future didn't grab me. XTRMNTR and Vanishing Point would be career highlights for most other bands... I think Riot City Blues has become the new Give Out But Don't Give Up , in that it...

Ditto.

I also don't think it gets really interesting until Ripley throws in his acid guitar solos towards the end section of each track. Hit the nail on the head there Runcible. The only problem i have really with Wooden Shjips / Moon Duo is the drums, both the plodding beat and the actual sound of them. ...

sunray

Porcupine for me. Not listened to any of them in a few years though tbh. Never liked Crocodiles either.

sunray

Thanks for these. Just looking at the tracklisting for the JasonSpaceman 55, a large chunk of the first 15 odd songs are from the first Breezeblock session i heard Jason do.

Thanks once again.

sunray

Have been listening to Escape the past week. First off, 4 songs clocking in at under 29 minutes does not constitute an album in my book. An e.p. certainly, at best a mini album, but not a full LP. Just a heads up in case anyone was expecting 8 or 9 tunes over the course of an hour. As for the music?...

I've had a huge folder of all this for years... got some greats in amongst them... i could share this up.

Ooh... Yes please.

Evie Sands isn't credited but Sonic did put her song on his Spacelines compilation from a few years ago.

Pleasantly surprised to see that Hope Sandoval and The Warm Inventions are back in Dublin on Friday 7th May in the very small confines of Whelans.

She'd never played Ireland up 'til last year and now we're getting a second gig in 7 months!

Also in Bush Hall in London on 24/25 May.

Hitting the first 2 and i would be going to the Jim Jones Revue only in Dublin Wooden Shjips are playing the same night.

sunray

I too bought mine when it came out and also had no idea they were that limited. I have difficulty believing that there was only 1000 pressed.

Mugstar. New album in March.

You'll pick up a cheap copy on Discogs no problem.

sunray

and soft pack are good ya.... I was wondering if anyone had any thoughts about Soft Pack on here. My local record store gave it album of the week and they're playing down here in Brighton next weekend.So, anyone else got anything to add about them? They did a great version of Walkin' With Jesus whe...

The Jesus & Mary Chain - Taste of Cindy. Unless you count "uh uh oh" as the last line.

Alright James, it'll be Dublin for me. I was half expecting you and your mates to make the trip over for that one.

That's how i felt about the first album, haven't heard the new one yet. I will still be going to see them in March though.

sunray

i just can't get into Four Tet, i've tried but he just bores me. I am curious to hear those couple of Sunburned Hand Of The Man albums he produced though.

Archie Bronson Outfit I didn't even know these chaps were touring Sunray. Really enjoyed them when I saw them in Brighton a couple of years ago and when they supported Spiritualized at the Roundhouse.

Would that bonus cd be "Bong Voyage"? No - the one I mean is referred to as 'Cardboard Sub Pop Promo Jams'. Here is the Sub Pop card sleeve CD: https://download.yousendit.com/TzY1anZobEF0NitGa1E9PQ Hope you like it! Cheers Runcible, hopefully get to give it a go during the week.

I'd avoid Summer Sun, it's rubbish. The others around it are okay but i haven't heard Popular Songs yet. I would agree with you on that trilogy of albums from 93-97 been their best though.

Nice one Laz, downloading these 2 now. Mighty thanks.

No email for me yet... Did your prescription arrive yet Vancouver? Got mine today, had to be signed for.

Cheers for that Laz, i too can't do the torrents thing. Would love to hear those Heads shows. Thanks again.

I thought both Mr.Beast and The Hawk Is Howling were great. I haven't listened to the rest for a while. What about Government Sessions? Some great versions on that. I have no time for CODY, to me Mogwai without the noise just seem pointless and dull as fuck. Stuart, you might enjoy Kicking A Dead Pi...

I love coincidences: A new thread on The Who and today i attended a funeral where "Baba O'Reilly" was played at the graveside, when the tune finished everyone broke into spontaneous applause, made me smile.

Anyway, don't want to bring down the mood of a good thread, carry on...

sunray

By the way, Sunray, what are Porcupine Tree like? My Unlce is into them big time....and he's the one who got me into Neil Young, so he's usually not bad on the musical taste front. Sorry to hijack this thread, but couldn't help myself. While I would never call myself a serious fan of Porcupine Tree...

sunray

Fucking hell, i actually enjoyed that and i've always hated the twat! Then again i'm a sucker for that whole "Sympathy for the Devil/ Hey Jude/ Oh Sweet Nuthin/ Loaded/ Dry The Rain" type of tune anyway.

sunray

Didn't expect to see Porcupine Tree amongst all that.

sunray

Oh my....i think i need to change my underwear.

sunray

Comets on Fire i think fell into the trap that lots of bands do: pursuing a "classic" sound. I liked "Field Recordings.." and "Blue Cathedral" but found "Avatar" to be quite dull, of course that turned out to be the album that got them most plaudits and recog...

sunray

I really like some of their stuff but didn't go for Blue Cathedral actually - it was a different direction for them and nowhere near as good as Field Recordings From The Sun. having said that there was a very limited card sleeved CD that came with really early copies of it which is incredible.

Got to stand up for JOMF here, saw them last year and they were great. I must admit to been worried that i was in for a night of total noodling wank or some kind of shambling alt country thing but they actually had tunes and songs and they were good! "Hey Mr.Sky" was turned into a magnific...

sunray

It's quite unambiguous in its wording ("Sonic Boom checked his watch 90 minutes in (longer than they ever play with breaks between songs!) and began to wind things down." - that's from memory, mind you). I mean, it could be flat-out wrong, but it's clear that the author is saying, "I...

sunray

I know its for the LAG gigs and album but it's a really dull design. Modlabs "Amazing Days" or the one he had been working on before that are far nicer.

sunray

I thought the Blue on Blue and DJ Tones/How The Blues.... were the same version, must listen again.
