Mojo: I don't know if those of you in the UK/Europe are getting a different deal than those of us in the US, but Matador has offered a subscription deal for the B&S EPs, where you get them upon release and then, as you said, the third one comes with the box and a poster. That's what I signed up ...

TheWarmth

Here's my list. Some of it won't be very popular here, but I'm ok with that. 1. Slowdive : Slowdive 2. Julie Byrne : Not Even Happiness (This album is amazing. Check it out if you haven't. It's mellow and folky, but there's something haunting and incredible about her voice and the melodies are crazy...

TheWarmth

Mojo: That B&S album came out in 2015. They did release a new EP last Friday, though: How To Solve Our Human Problems (EP1 out of 3).

TheWarmth

The online archive is really cool. I explored it a bit. The fact that there are ten unreleased albums slated for future release is amazing. My understanding is that it's free until the end of June, 2018. I will say that I fear that NY and his team may not keep up with updates, though. Note that Pono...

TheWarmth

At this point, I fear we may not get an album announcement until 2018. Don't suppose anyone has heard anything?

TheWarmth

Curious if anyone knows about Mark Lightcap? I've just messaged him on Fakebook, he looks a lot like an older version of a kid who was in my Boy Scout troop in the 80s. Would be cool if it was indeed that kid. Let me know if he responds. He's got to have a stockpile of solo recordings and other int...

TheWarmth

I shipped the package to Olan on Friday the 3rd, so it should be there no later than the 13th. Thanks to everyone who expressed interest. Hope you dig it.

TheWarmth

I'd agree that the reunion has played out very well all in all. The album is good but not amazing. But everything else has been played out perfectly. The live shows have often been stunning and they've been mixing up the setlists nicely (which can't be said of, say, Slowdive) I saw Slowdive last ni...

TheWarmth

I suppose I agree that the album is a little overproduced, BUT it still exceeded my expectations and there are a few tracks that I adore: the title track, Cali and Lateral Alice are my favorites. Honestly, there isn't any one song that I dislike. So, I'm very happy with the way the Ride reunion is p...

TheWarmth

I couldn't stop myself. I ordered the reissues today. My buddy wanted them too, so I ordered two copies of each and the total cost wasn't too bad. Can't wait to hear these.

TheWarmth

Curious if anyone who has just recently gotten into Acetone has any thoughts now that you've had some time to dive in. I finished the book, Hadley, Lee, Lightcap, and loved it. Definitely recommended.

TheWarmth

I thought it was a pretty interesting read, although it does strike me as pretty weird that he felt it necessary to completely eliminate computers from the remastering process when some of the work on the original album was done in the digital realm. Still, I will be buying the reissues for sure.

TheWarmth

He says a new MBV album will "100%" be out next year, as they're touring in the summer. Fingers crossed.

TheWarmth

Stream 15 tracks from the new boxset. Gotta admit, it's pretty awesome stuff. Now I want it.

TheWarmth

I'll be at the Chicago gig.

TheWarmth

Wow, J's new "Spaceman" guitar strap is super cool. Also, I don't recall seeing him playing a yellow guitar in the past. Looks like another Fender Thinline, but it's definitely not the orange one that has been so ubiquitous in the past.

TheWarmth

There has been a decline in pubs the last decade or so and I knew about that citing the price of pints, cheaper booze at Tesco's, declining drinkers, popularity of wines, health reasons, etc., etc. but this is a bit much with the small chain of British pubs called, " White Punks ". Instea...

TheWarmth

Thanks, Diesel! I bet we're looking at January or February.

TheWarmth

I don't suppose there was any mention of how the new album is shaping up or when it might come out?

TheWarmth

Interesting. Only one song from SHSL and none from A&R or LICD. Pierce is clearly holding back the new material until the album is out. I'm guessing the setlists for the next few gigs will be about the same.

TheWarmth

This was last night, correct? Can someone who attended post a review and/or setlist?

TheWarmth

Thanks for the links. I'll grab those tracks this weekend. I'm almost done with the Acetone book. It's a wonderful read, but the heroin elements are so depressing. Our man Pierce is in it a bit and I was surprised to learn that he basically lived with Richie Lee while he was working on L&G in LA.

TheWarmth

A CD reissue? Why? I guess I just don't see the point, unless it's going to be remastered or they use BZA's remaster.

Thanks, Olan! Sounds good.

TheWarmth

I'll send the records over for shipping only, but someone will have to disperse them throughout the UK.

TheWarmth

Sounds good. I can give you guys a discount on the records themselves. I have a few connections, so the cost of the pressing was ridiculously low.

TheWarmth

Can't believe this day managed to get worse.

TheWarmth

I listened to the whole thing yesterday and thought it sounded fantastic. Pressing was clean and flat. Excellent work by Third Man. I assume this was pressed at the Cass Corridor plant.

TheWarmth

I think I have The Final Say single, too. That song is so killer. Should have been on the comp.

TheWarmth

Any chance you can scan the Shindig interview? I searched, but didn't see it online. I recently listened to the album by Spinout, which is the garage rock band that all three of the Acetone guys were in pre-Acetone (with an additional lead singer). Pretty interesting stuff. Lightcap goes nuts on wah...

TheWarmth

I haven't had time to listen yet, but I'll do so and will post my thoughts soon. Thanks again, Alan. Very awesome score.

TheWarmth

Here's York Blvd.:

TheWarmth

$17.76 plus free shipping. An absolute steal. The only vinyl copy on Discogs is $90.

TheWarmth

Just got into this band thanks to this thread, and I'd just like to point out that a case of York Blvd LPs must have just been found or something, because there's a bunch of them for cheap on eBay. Just got my copy, and it's a nice pressing. Huge thanks for the tip. I think three of my friends purc...

TheWarmth

Yeah, I'll re-up York Blvd. later tonight. I got the comp and the book in the mail the other day. Interestingly, whoever put together the comp didn't include any of the heavier or more uptempo Acetone material, which I felt like was kindof a weird thing to do. It's almost as if he/they decided they ...

TheWarmth

This shit is incredible. This is what Urban Hymns should have been. Man, so glad this material is out there now. I would pay a pretty penny for a vinyl pressing of this.

TheWarmth

This is (probably) the last Warmth album. I'd love to get some vinyl copies over to the UK if there's interest, but it obviously make sense to just do one shipment due to the expense.

Stream it here:

TheWarmth

I'm torn over this release, too. The 4xLP version is $100. I hate the idea of spending that much cash on something I'll never listen to, but who knows, maybe I'd really dig it. My gut says that I won't, though.

TheWarmth

I'm interested in that Stooges 2xLP set if you wind up going back there anytime soon.

Assuming you're not joking, that can't be right. Terrible marketing plan.

TheWarmth

You mean the plus symbol tweet? I saw that, too. Hopefully, there is an album announcement coming.

TheWarmth

why oh why, try as I might, over and over again I've tried, but I can NOT get into Stereolab. At. All. To me, it sounds like whimpy french crap-pop made especially grating by that super annoying chick singing - - - she sings like I do when having a cathartic moment in the shower - - give me nails d...

TheWarmth

Did running 17 & 18 on the same night adversely affect the reception of each episode? I think it was a savvy move. Episode 18 was much slower than I had expected. Honestly, 17 is what I had expected of 18. If 18 had run on its own, I think there would have been more of an uproar than there was.

TheWarmth

The songs I like from Forth are ...

Sit and Wonder
Rather Be
Judas
Numbness
I See Houses

Noise Epic doesn't even come close to living up to its name. Valium Sky is pure Ashcroft garbage.

TheWarmth

I revisited Forth a month or two ago. I just looked at the tracklist and there are 5 songs that I think are really good. The rest is pretty mediocre. So, I totally disagree with Nick, as this album isn't even close to being as good as A Storm In Heaven or Northern Soul.

TheWarmth

Here's a fantastic, meticulous synopsis. https://www.reddit.com/r/twinpeaks/comments/6y1pgw/s3e18_another_theory_on_episode_18/ I really like this take, as it avoids the suggestions that it was all someone's dream or a certain portion of the show was just a dream. I totally disagree with those theor...

TheWarmth

What an incredible series that was. I think Cooper made a mistake trying to save Laura. Yeah, I think I agree with you. I certainly wasn't expecting that. I've read a lot of negative things about episode 18, but IMO Lynch gave us as much of a "wrap up" episode as we could have hoped for w...

TheWarmth

mc - I totally agree about that mixtape. It's tremendous. I wish the download broke the tracks down individually. I just don't have time to do it myself.

TheWarmth

The album is streaming on NPR:

TheWarmth

Another mind-blowing episode. Probably the best of the season so far. It was pretty much everything I wanted out of the new TP season in one episode. I'm hoping that we get answers to the following next week: Who is Naido? Is she the real Diane? That doesn't seem right to me. Who is Judy? Who is Bil...

TheWarmth

Somebody managed to capture a screenshot of Sarah and Jumping Man's faces melded together from episode 15, which I completely missed from the Jumping Man segment. Pretty terrifying. I've attached it here. I don't know if the implication is that Jumping Man is inside of Sarah or that Lynch was simply...

What are these promo mixes? Just edited/shorter versions? I think this is the first time I've heard of them.

Hey Jane (Promo Mix)
Little Girl (Promo Mix)
Freedom (Promo Mix)
I Am What I Am (Promo Mix)

So Long You Pretty Things (Promo Mix)

TheWarmth

My understanding is the the next Bootleg release is definitely a gospel years set.

TheWarmth

Damn it. I can't watch it here in the US. Who sang "The Old Man's Back Again"?

TheWarmth

I love the new video and track, "Party In The Dark." For some reason, I'm not having any luck getting the youtube function to work, but here's the link:

TheWarmth

"Too Late" and "Life Is A Problem" are two of my favorite songs on SHSL, but neither were played at the show I saw on July 12, 2013. I just looked up that gig and here are the new songs they played: The Road (Let's Go) A Song D Song I'm Your Man Let's Dance The Morning After The ...

TheWarmth

I'm in for one of each. Sent you an email, Alan.

Something/someone is in Sarah's house (and maybe inside her). When we find out what's up I think we're in for a pretty terrifying scene. The shot of the fan in the house was telling. Definitely bad news.

TheWarmth

Last night's episode 13 was perfect. I loved everything about it. The scene at the "farm" was incredible. Nice to see Big Ed finally, even though he seems like he might not be in a great place in his life right now.

TheWarmth

The release date is confirmed as September 8th.

TheWarmth

My guess is that no promoter has ever made an offer to J to perform LGM or Pure Phase in the same manner as L&G. The bottom line is that L&G is the most recognized and critically acclaimed Spiritualized album, so it's the most obvious one to do front to back in a live setting.

TheWarmth

At least we know that it's nearing completion. I feel like there were a lot of quotes in the article that basically amounted to, "I just want to make it as good as I possibly can." I have a feeling it may not be released until next year if he estimates that he still has a few months of wor...

“It’s just about there. It seemed for a while it wasn’t going to make sense and now it’s kind of coming together. It feels like it’s not far off. A couple of months and then I’ve got a finished record.”

TheWarmth

I enjoyed 11 much more than 10. So much going on, it's hard to keep track. Is someone trying to kill Bobby, Shelley and possibly Becky, too (shots fired into the RR)? If so, I'm guessing that has to do with the fact that they're all descendants/relatives of Major Briggs. The Mitchum Brothers are gre...

Here's a review from Under The Radar (8 out of 10): Hitchhiker is the rare archival release that can appeal to both rabid superfans and casual listeners. Recorded over the course of a single night in 1976, it captures Neil Young in a stony mood-just a man and his guitar, a piano (and a few mind alte...
