another album of the year contender

Listening to Ohsees new un' whose name escapes me, because alcoholism lol. It's their heaviest yet and foken ace lad! Arnly 21 minutes long however so now I'm on to an old favourite in Smote Reverser.

Uffff cc

Depeche mode's greatest suicidal hits. Never gets old, streangley.

hahahaha this little album is tight as fuck and so much fun

 

 

Tadeschi Trucks Band - I Am The Moon vol 1/4.

Fuck I love this!!

oh yum yum yum...

Had Saucer-Like on loop during a run yesterday - damn that's a good song!

just one of those days ...


hadn't heard it for a very long time, and I should listen to it more often
it's hard to say which is my favourite Low album, but this one comes very close

Lately I've been digging the live versions of some South Park classics:

"Theme Song"

"Kyle's Mom's A Bitch"

"Gay Fish"

I just uploaded this to the Live Music Archive:





Low Live at Heartland Festival, Catharinakerk (Catharina church) on 2009-01-22


Low in my hometown in their most unique gig they ever did, and I wasn't there :(

Happened to me with Spiritualized's Acoustic Mainlines show. Unbelievably, they played at the Municipal Theater, a place so posh and "highbrow" you'll have trouble getting in unless you're Daniel Barenboim or somebody. Anyway, it took years for me to know. If you're not on the Twatters you miss out on almost everything... :mad:

well, for me it was different. I had bought a ticket for months, then I sold it and went on a business trip to US & Canada. Which was really fun, and cold too. So I actually didn't mind as much as I perhaps should have.


Listened to some more Low this morning:





Low - Plays Nice Places







then followed by:







Don't really know them, but they will visit my town next month. They confuse me a bit, some songs are very cool, some others are boring, some others are annoying.
Also, they sound very British to me, but they are from Texas??

Sunday morning coffee music:







And Friday afternoon commuting music:

Love - Forever Changes, which is still The Greatest Album Ever Made.

But also:

Wormrot - Hiss
Pig destroyer - Terrifyer
Napalm death - Scum
Misery Index - Traitors

(Clearly, I'm on a grindcore / death-metal kick, inbetween Forever Changes breaks.)

AMENRA "Le Cercle"




amazing live performance they did during lockdown times, but only released on YT a few weeks ago

^ Are they witches?

Can't get this song outta my head. Nor do I want to.

Lots of Days n Daze, MBV, Boar God, and Spiritualized lately. And a hint of A$AP Rocky here and there

The Rustle of the Stars - Live at The Sacred Trinity Church, Manchester (2012)

by Richard Knox & Frédéric D. Oberland

nice live recording of a post-rock event, half is from Oiseaux Tempete, who the other is heck I don't know









Fleur

I read about this artist today. She lives where I live but sings in French in sixties Yé-Yé style. Kinda cool, but her first album didn't do much for me. She'll release a new one in a few months, it's on pre-order

For some reason I had a sudden urge to listen to this album :p. The Smiths are not on bandcamp, but Janice Whaley is. She recorded all Smiths' albums in acapella fashion!!


The Smiths Project Remastered Box Set by Janice Whaley



as her bio says : "Janice Whaley covered every song by The Smiths in 2010, using only voice in 30-50 layers and 1300 hours."
if the shipping wasn't the same price as the box, I would have bought it

A Classical Music live performance by Munich Radio Orchestra & Bavarian Radio Choir that I got from Dime a long time ago. They perform three beautiful pieces:



Erkki-Sven Tüür: Lighthouse

György Ligeti: Lux aeterna

Maurice Duruflé: Requiem, op. 9







You all should youtube that shit!
The second piece was used in 2001: A Space Odyssey btw

Indigo De Souza - I Love My Mom

Fire in My Mind by Lanue



This EP is produced by Low's Alan Sparhawk, and musically it resembles a bit Low's latest albums. But she's not Mim :)
Her previous album which I'll check out next, features former Low's bassist Steve Garrington and Erik Koskinen who has played with Low on their last UK Christmas tour a few years back.

I'm browsing Alan's Discogs to see if there's anything worthwhile on it.

Vocally, a bit heavy on the Kate Bush, um, "homage". But I like it.

and then some Nils Frahm too cool down again

Nanci Griffith - "Love At The Five And Dime" [live]

The spoken intro alone is priceless. :)
