Where did you get that?
I never bought the album, but I had all the singles.

Ebay. I've been holding out for the CD for ages, but the prices asked for it are stupid.

I always keep an eye out for the CD, but I've never seen it for sale anywhere.

Mademoiselle K - Ca ma vexe (funny french indie-pop, I saw them at a festival in France and bought that cd afterwards)

this is what I bought.

i love it.

We went to Manchester yesterday, where there's a very excellent (and cheap) record shop called Fopp. I bought:

The Fall: Live in London 1980 - The Legendary Chaos Tape
The Fall: Room To Live (Undilutable Slang Truth)
The Fall: The Rough Trade Singles Box Set

AFX: Analogue Bubblebath 3
Polygon Window: Surfing on Sine Waves

Jelly Roll Morton: compilation

I ordered the cd Breasticles, from Kristeen Young's official site the other day.

Aww :/
I love it because of the jazz- and funk parts in some of the songs. Do Nothing/Bitchslap is a (imo) masterpiece. The way Slipknot experiments with jazz, funk and metal is lovley.


By the way, bought some new records yesterday.
Cult of Luna - Salvation
Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon (Deluxe 30th anniversary Ed. Incl poster.... yeah i know, reissue)

my point exactly, they were like "let's be faith no more/mr bungle!!" i don't know, not my bag really. i remember back when the first album was released and everyone was like "there's an album before this one that is better and you can't get anywhere!!!", then a friend downloaded it on napster and we listened to it and looked at each other and went "it's good we didn't have to buy it".

The new Yo La Tengo. It's pretty awesome. More pop sounding than I expected, but very infectious. A lot of fun.

See what i mean?

No, sorry... what do you mean...??

I've no idea what it's like, but I liked the reviews that I read.

Example:

The Black Angels are what you get when you meld the Brian Jonestown Massacre's psychedelia with the Jesus and Mary Chain's wall of sound from their early days. That alone should tell you if the album is for you.

The music is great. The lyrics try too hard to be deep, meaningful and bleak at the same time. They're not bad but they do show a lack of subtly. Still, even with that this album easily blows away anything I've heard this year.

Great cover up there.What's the band like?Never heard of them.

Dunno. I'll tell you when it arrives.

Wow. Sounds like something I'd like.

Of course, I bought Serena-Maneesh based on reviews that made comparisons to MBV and Sonic Youth. I loved it at first but it's paled.

More and more when I read these kind of "this sounds like this, so you'll like it" reviews, I go, yah but there's really only the original JAMC or MBV or SY. How can another band measure up and still sound like something better than an imitation?

i've learned to stay away from anything that says "sounds like my bloody valentine, jesus and mary chain..."

the only good band with that description i've heard lately is giant drag.

I have a good feeling in my balls about this one though...

Good place to have a good feeling.

The reissued, remastered, bookletted affair.

The box is nice, and the original LP sounds great - Japan always went for a very polished sound and the remastering treatment suits them better than most. The extra disc is OK, and the booklet's nice but consists of photos, rather than an analysis or interview dealing with the LP, which is a shame. Still a nice thing to have.

The proper LP cover:



1. The Art Of Parties
2. Talking Drum
3. Ghosts
4. Canton
5. Sill Like In Mobile Homes
6. Visions Of China
7. Sons Of Pioneers
8. Cantonese Boy

Flaming Lips Christmas on Mars Picture Disc


Vinyl

This one, on vinyl.

Good stuff. If you haven't got the Furniture EP, I strongly suggest getting it. It only has 3 tracks, but three killer tracks.

Just bought 'Popular Soviet Songs and Youth Music' by :zoviet france:
Excellent packaging - 3CDs sandwiched between 2 circular pieces of felt, held together by a Russian army hat badge.

i had to re-buy mike watt's ballhog or tugboat? cause i lost it. luckily i found it used for 5 bucks
i also got stereolab's The Mars audiac quintet

I got a bunch of Torture Garden compilations today ("Extreme Clubbing Vol, 1-4") and 3 CDs on RIM Records from Rough Trade (Ming & Stout "A Taste of Wood", "The Avant Gardeners" and Jake Vegas "Nevade Gas".)

I got the Wolf Eyes/Grey Daturas split and the Replacements "Tim" last week. Tim is great but someone needs to remaster it so the drums sound less like Bon Jovi or something. The Wolf Eyes/Grey Daturas split is pretty great.

oopsy daisy, wrong thread.

Today I ordered:

"Hidros 3 (To Patti Smith)" by Sonic Youth/Mats Gustafsson
"The Lovvers" by AIDS Wolf
"Freedom Chants From The Roof Of The World" by The Gyoto Monks

Stereolab - Dots & Loops (used)
Stephen Malkmus - Face The Truth (used)
TV On The Radio - Return to Cookie Mountain (new)

POS - POS Is Ruining My Life single 12"

The Tim CD sounds terrible, like they're in an empty warehouse. The LP sounds much better.

Cult Of Luna - Salvation
Slipknot - Vol.3 Limited Ed.
Kent - B-Sides 95-00
