I have been listening to the new Low album quite a bit over the last few days. Musically I think is is excellent, and I really like the artwork but what is with the lurid yellow vinyl? Also, MP3 and not FLAC download is cheapshit thing to do, especially given the pice of the LP.

Yep, lovely music, particularly beautiful sleeve design and hideous urine-sample yellow vinyl. Quite like the sticker that says looser on cover. I hadn't noticed that before....

The God Machine- Scenes From The Second Storey

this album is one where you don't know quite where it would have fitted into the music scene of the time (1992)- there's some very metal riffing and some moments that remind me of Janes Addiction of all people- but then there's some tranquil moments, atmospheric sax and even some piano tinkling.
tell you what though, I can hear definitely moments where early Mogwai would have cribbed some of their moves from.

Max Richter - Sleep . bluddy lovely.

also converting loads of live stuff/ bootlegs from crappy bit rate mp3's to flac. its like they have been converted from B&W to 3D Technicolor. especially the 60's / 70's material. amazing.

Deerhunter - Fading Frontier

This sounds better with every listen. Described as Bradford Cox's 'poppy' album it's certainly got a very appealing sound but there is still some edge to proceedings, just as there was with Halcyon Digest, the album Fading Frontier gets compared to, although it's quite a way off the harsher sound of Monomania. Lots of very catchy songs with that dreamy feel you find in Deerhunter music. The 2 preview tracks - Snakeskin and Breaker - are among the best tunes here I think, and the anticipation they created have made the album live up to my expectations. They play at the Brudenell in a couple of weeks which I am really looking forward to.

I must admit to not having found a great deal of new music this year so this is a welcome arrival. Recommended.

I'm finding that Deerhunter album to be really disappointing, as was the last one. It just passes me by when I listen to it.

I think they lost something when Josh Fauver left. I'll still go and see them in Dublin next week though!

Halcyon is gathering dust on its shelf - haven't played it since I gave it a few spins when it came out. Not bothering with the new one - don't understand the hype surrounding this band.

I think the vast majority of Halcyon is fantastic - couple of less interesting tunes but the rest is great. I hadn't really paid much attention to DH until someone played me that. I don't get that last album but I am enjoying the floaty nature of this new one a lot.

recently found this fantastic live recording of Echo & The Bunnymen which I had on in the background while doing some computer stuff

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PuIvLAtp0sc

there are a lot of great live recordings out there under the Rockpalast banner. there's a fantastic early REM one too.

this week I've also been mostly listening to:

Godspeed You Black Emperor- Asunder, Sweet and Other Distress
Loop- The World in Your Eyes
Deep Purple- Made in Japan
Doves-Kingdom of Rust
The Rolling Stones- Sticky Fingers
The Rolling Stones- Exile on Main Street

An artist from Austria called Juleah

Really good stuff, lots to see and hear on youtube. First few albums are download only (which you can download off bandcamp for nothing if you want, I paid a few quid for each)
Her new album is out and its the first physical release and its great. Two spins today already.
Think Psychic Ills, Speck Mountain, Tess Parks, maybe a bit of Mazzy Star. She plays all instruments herself and I highly reccomend.

I got a hold on 14 Isaac Hayes albums (family member past away) and some of them are really enjoyable.
Apparat Organ Quartet - Polyfonia (Iceland's best kept secret)
Candi Staton - Compilation (bought it for 'I'm just a prisoner', but there are plenty of great souljerkers)
Chelsea Wolfe - Live at roadburn 2012 (a killer!)

This description was right up my street. I checked some songs out online and promptly ordered the LP. Once again I can thank this message board for another great recommendation.
For those interested, especially in the North America, Amazon UK by far the best deal at $27.50 shipped.
Thank you Dave.

Her cover of Spacemen 3's cover of The Carter Family's May The Circle Be Unbroken is pretty good.

Juleah's version of the Staples Singers classic was astonishing. Definitely gonna check her stuff out.

For me the last few weeks have been dominated by exactly two albums - one of which was Raw Power in its many versions. The 1997 Iggy Pop remaster was my intro to it back in 1998 I think - there was an article with Jason about his top 10 records in Melody Maker - and this was number one choice.

It blew out many beatboxes years ago in college, but it sounded better than anything.

There's a less abrasive version out there on a limited 12", which was remastered for RSD 2012. It sounds like the perfect hybrid between the original Bowie mix and the incendiary Iggy Pop version ('Shake Appeal' sound more like The Cramps than ever!)!

Have a listen: play at HD (720) quality with headphones, or as loud as you can play loud...

Raw Power is the greatest. I love everything about it.

2 washed up weirdo's move to London to make an album. Iggy reading Time magazine sitting under a tree in Kensington Gardens snorting rocks of heroin and writing the lyrics to 'Search and Destroy'. That always gives me a little kick when I walk through there - deflowering one of London's most celebrated royal Parks with seedy rock and roll behavior. The fact that most of it was written on an acoustic guitar! The vision of James Williamson! The Scala Show. The way they looked, I mean come on! The fact that no one over here could play like the dum dum boys so he had to draft them in to lay down that unhinged filth. That fact that it was so ahead of its time know one knew what the hell to make of it? What is this? The audience bating live shows, the bottle fights, the blood. The myths, the legends

and the simple fact that

they took

rock and roll

as far

as it could go.



"So we were living in Fulham and you'd turn on the TV or radio and I think it was Jimmy Savile, or this succession of awful creeps with insinuating voices, would come on and say, 'Hi mums, here's the new one from Elton' or whatever. These people peddling this horrible showbiz crap. The game was sewed up so that nothing any good could get in. So we were on a mission – partly to get people to get with it and partly to get there ourselves. I had somebody I wanted to be, a way I wanted to look, and a way I wanted to sound and it had nothing to do with having 10 quid in my pocket."

No probs Simon, I only found out about it this morning via a mate. Could be a new album come spring next year. I love their work rate!
As for Fleetwood Mac, Tusk is the only album of theirs I have and it's a cracker. Well worth a purchase but no need to buy the deluxe versions of it that keep getting re-issued.
My headphones at work are now blasting out Hey Coloussus "Radio Static High", man oh man that's a BIG album.

What Are You Listening To Now?

Post by BzaInSpace »

Some great posts here (Raw Power! Tusk! Black Grape!!!) which I will add to when I can...

In the meantime - LISTEN.

The best thing I've seen and heard today, this week or even the decade? Probably.

I was looking for a YouTube link for Jerry Lee Lewis' classic 'Chantilly Lace', which I've mainlined for weeks and kicks off the 3rd disc of the incredible Whole Lotta Jerry Lee Lewis box, which is absolutely the gift that keeps giving.

(The string arranger and quartet hired for this session were told by Jerry that there "would be one take only" - despite Jerry not being very familiar with the song... :shock:)

The only YouTube link for this particular studio sesson on YT is sadly really poor quality, but I found something even better:



Fucking incredible! Jerry Lee in 1973 for the BBC, with a pick up band who look like Steely Dan, yet he channels the whole live high energy thing he does so well.

Proper sky-high rock & roll beauty - another shitty gig for the early 70s Jerry Lee Lewis yet he gives it everything. Magical and intense and incredibly right on it.

I only wish the fucking BBC hadn't felt it prudish/prudent to edit the conclusion of Jerry Lee's 'Shakin' hand instructions... :wink:

I blasted the best Xmas album of all time - Phil Spector's Christmas Gift To You a few times yesterday - neighbours away so a good way to start the day, up with my children and later on once more at this fantastic dinner I was invited to...

Raw Power went on later (I think!) and I definitely played Lee and Nancy. Good times...

Kode9 - Nothing

A quietly harrowing listen, with the sad loss of Kode9's frequent collaborator The Spaceape (who succumbed to cancer in 2014) looming large over sparse, fractured, vaguely dystopian synths and beats.

Definitely loving this more and more as time goes on. What felt slightly underwhelming on release has become a labyrinthine album of odd, idiosyncratic beauty. AFX on vocoder for the win :)

I dug them out recently. A great accompaniment to our re-introduced hifi alarm clock; waking up with Lazer Guided Melodies each morning is an extremely good way to start the day.

In other news I am excited today to receive the Still in a Dream boxset as a late Christmas present from my Girlfriend. Its sounding gooood.

The new Iggy Pop songs are sounding really good. Collaboration with Josh Homme amongst others. Very Berlin era sounding.

The new Suede- Night Thoughts,
The new Ty Segall - Emotional Mugger,

And some old school hip hop , Gravdiggazz - The Pick ,The Sickle & The Shovel sounding better with age, actually sounding like a genuine `95/96/97 Wu Tang classic with the benefit ...

So rarely feel the need to post since what I've been listening to is usually covered, but I'm surprised folks round these parts aren't interested/aware of The Drones. Probably my favorite (active) band of the past decade. Their last album absolutely destroyed me when I first heard it. New album is out in March, and I couldn't be more excited.

Also been listening to a bunch of Phil Elverum's stuff, since it's so damn rainy here. Specifically the Mount Eerie album "Wind's Poem". Pretty thrilling guitar squalls and calm, droney bits throughout. Should be right up the alley of anyone who likes LGM.

Peter Green- The End of The Game
I would advise folks here to check this out. it sounds nothing like either Fleetwood Mac or his solo stuff. not very bluesy- it's more of a jazz fusion jam session with some scorching Hendrix-style wah wah playing. 8)

Urthona - Urthona Plays Atlantis?

Another album from Julian Cope's "One Three One" universe, with the man himself on cymbals. Two twenty-minute slabs of cavernous, howling guitar feedback, with added brass on one track that reminds me of Harmony Rockets. "Colossal overdriven mung worship", says the promo blurb. Highly recommended, says I :)

Got to agree about the Suede album, never bothered with the last one, and didn`t really hold out to much hope for this one tbh, boy was I wrong, cracking album,
