Spiritualized

I've always tried to live with little things like this, as i understand these things occasionally slip through the quality net, but this is really unacceptable on this LP. Have emailed Kontraband about it. Would much rather have a copy that i can listen to, regardless of vinyl colour or gimmicks.

Just ordered the black vinyl, hoping its a better pressing than the glow in the dark one, All Of My Tears is almost unlistenable, actually put it off twice now Far too many pops and clicks from my glow version.

Eventually decided late on Friday night i really couldn't be arsed with any of it, as i started to hear about queues forming on the Friday night.

Planned on heading into Glasgow for it as i was keen to pick up the Carlton Melton LP. Found out late last week it had been pushed back to Drop #2. Only other items of interest were the two Bardo Pond LPs (Vol1 & 2) which i fancied. Eventually decided late on Friday night i really couldn't be ar...

Earthless are such a great band. Isaiah's playing just blows my mind! At the complete opposite end of the scale, i'm loving Cheval Sombre's new release, Days Go By. Guy can't do no wrong in my opinion. Just some beautiful, beautiful music to close your eyes to and forget about the rest of the fuckin...

I enjoy them all, warts and all, as initially, Performance, Threebie 3 and Dreamweapon were all i could get hold of before i knew what a rich bootleg treasure trove was out there. The version of Suicide on Threebie 3 will always win me over. An absolute MONSTER of a version and my favourite, althoug...

Two albums with Cheval Sombre laying around. I wonder how much input he has on those? Are they named as CS albums or CS & SB? Just seen this announced by Sonic Cathedral on FB: Pleased to announce that Cheval Sombre will be hosting two #TimsTwitterListeningParty events for his new albums. He wi...

Didn't the VMP issue of L&G have a different sequence to the original release? That worked ok as i recall and didn't seem to disjointed as a result. Still, the sequencing of the songs is just as important and, if it doesn't flow well, does affect the listening experience.

That Transparent Radiation discussion made my head hurt (in a good way). However, the next day i went down the TR wormhole and listened to all the studio versions.

I don't think its a remaster. I had really hope it would be, but i don't hear enough to suggest it has been. Still sounds decent through.

My copy arrived yesterday and although i've not heard the LP, i was listening to the download over the weekend. Have to say, i actually prefer some of the remixes to the originals. Thoroughly enjoyable

I Can See The Light Bend sounds particularly good!

Sitting here (still) listening to LICD and LGM (in prep of new reissue arriving) and i started to imagine... A Spiritualized album of covers.

My go-to movies are usually Airplane, Bad Taste, Brain Dead, Blues Brothers, The Raid or Clerks.

Not really one for setting out to rewatc...

Twelve Steps, apart from sounding like a recycling of Electricity, suffers mostly for just not fitting in with the rest of the album for me. The strings sound out of place with the other areas of orchestration on the album (they remind me of something else but can't put my finger on it). And "...

So after listening to this all day, i thought i'd summarise my thoughts upon giving this a good few listens. I'm shit at describing things, so please bare with me.

I will say it definitely feels more of a whole, and more of an 'album' than perhaps their recent work has. the last one just seemed like four pieces put together, this feels more of a whole piece. Yep, definitely agree. Was listening to Mladic earlier today and thought they new tracks sounded more ...

Laz69

Its outrageously loud here! As you say, perks of working at home. Yeah, a huge part of their live show is the visual experience. Makes they whole thing much more poignant and moving. I'd happily pay more for each album if there was a DVD accompanying it with just the silent footage that could be pla...

Laz69

I'm loving this. One of the biggest things i enjoy about their live shows is the footage played inthe background. I really wish the band would release the footage as a companion piece to the music - just silent footage. I'd love to watch all this while playing the albums. Would happily pay more for ...
