Christmas presents:

Dark Twisted triple vinyl (!!!)



Baths - Cerulean CD (total surprise, hadn't heard before at all, but it's a really fantastic record. Easily one of my favourite beat based electronic albums of the year)



And I also just ordered for myself, as part of a much overdue project to fill the considerable gaps in my Smog/Bill Callahan appreciation, both on vinyl:

omg I love Smog.

Just ordered these:

Herb Diamante - My Crawling Eye Sees All
The Sound of Pot - Only Jesus Can Make Me

I've only owned 3 of his records before (Knock Knock, Rough Travel For A Rare Thing and Sometimes I Wish We Were An Eagle), and I've obsessed over all of them pretty much as much as any other singer-songwriter records I've heard. Truly stunning, and indescribably addictive. I know at least a couple of tracks from most of his other records, but finally decided it was time to make a start on getting the whole lot.

^^ amazing songwriter, amazing voice.
I own a good 90% of anything he's released . I just miss very the early stuff that's hardly listeanble, really.

yeah I have a looooot of his albums too. Knock Knock is probably my absolute fav. Julius Caesar is up there. Sometimes I wish.... is incredible as well. But yeah he's definitely a big fav of mine. I could just listen to his voice all day.

oh and The Doctor Came At Dawn is incredible too. Get that one soon.

I know The Doctor Came at Dawn a bit, and that was actually the one I most wanted (couldn't find an affordable good quality copy right now), but I've listened to All Your Women Things around a bazillion times because it's fucking transcendent. He really is just too good. Absolutely agreed on the voice. He has a way of delivering even the simplest phrases in such a way that they just stab you in the heart. Sometimes... is narrowly my favourite, but Knock Knock is also INCREDIBLE.

I ordered Slaapkamers met Slagroom LP a few days ago!

Thanks! Glad to be hear aswell..it's a shame ive never seen of this forum before :o

 

 

I got those on vinyl today in my local record store.

Is this the double LP bonus edition one with the resequenced tracklist and everything? Because if so it's an absolute beauty.

Yeah it is. I still haven't had chance to sit down and listen to it. I'm still perplexed about why Domino were willing to release this remastered on vinyl but not Bakesale and Harmacy.

Cosmogramma By Flying Lotus and Spiderland By Slint.

Yeah thats two but i bought them both at once so yeah

and omg slint

Blood Red Shoes

Three. John Lennon Double Fantasy stripped down, Brian Wilson Pet Projects, and Rush Feedback.

got this for my birthday- it is amazing

The new John Lennon box set. should take up a good chunk of time, happy time for the ears.

Brain Sound - An Attempt To Record Coincidence (reissue on Nero's Neptune)

Excellent, very weird LP. Technically I traded another record for this and didn't "buy" it, but I did obtain it directly from the man who reissued it.

I didn't write this description, but this says it better than I could. Very hard to describe, and well worth a listen.

...this hellishly-rare austrian avant garde lp from 1972 is nothing short of astonishing. there are no instruments, but rather varying configurations of solo, duo and ensemble vocal improvisations, presumably informed by the aforementioned (and nearly impenetrable) code (or “charts”). although this might be seen as part of an interesting continuum, this unique and prescient music will stun even the most astute followers of outsider art. describe it, you say? sweet jesus! “shape note singing for acidheads,” perhaps? from an avant-classical perspective, one might mention late-’60s penderecki as a possible reference point (along with ligeti, or perhaps even nono)....

I've been spending hundreds of euros on music recently. Someone help me before I buy the Parson Sound 3LP box set!


Latest purchases:


YOB - The Great Cessation 2LP






White Hills - Stolen Stars Left For No One 12" EP






Bongripper - Satan Worshipping Doom 2LP






NNCK - Aftypiclipse LP

Ordered:

Tim Buckley - S/T (Rhino's deluxe edition)



Kill city ("Restored version"), I preferred the original cover...

Vinyl copy of Loveless by My Blood Valentine. I doubt I need to link the cover art to anyone here.

SOUND OF POT / CYCLES INSIDE
Split Cassette

Haven't listened to Superchunk in a while, but I saw this in the record store the other day, and I loved the cover art so I grabbed it. It's pretty much what you'd expect from them. Overall, I like it though. There are some real strong tracks, 'Learned to Surf' and 'Everything at Once' are awesome songs. Pretty good.

Gas expenses to Chicago wound up being covered last weekend, so I felt OK about splurging a little.
Got these:

Bobby Beausoleil - Lucifer Rising Suite 4xLP box set
Current 93 - The Inmost Light (aka All The Pretty Little Horses 2xLP reissue)
Sylvester Anfang II - S/T 2xLP (EXCELLENT. Whoa)
Mondo Drag - New Rituals LP

YESSSS

This is actually fairly rare on cd.

Off ebay, the swanky holographic edition, the shiny packaging negates the effect of the pattern, but yeah the music is as i expected; a fucking challenge

Both showed up today.

the reissue vinyl version of Pearl Jam's Ten.

new Manhand tapes:

Sunburned - Ludes

Rubber Leather - s/t

Manwhale - s/t
