anyway, new lightning bolt SONIC CITADEL comes out oct 11 and there’s a sample track, AIR CONDITIONING

https://lightningbolt.bandcamp.com/album/sonic-citadel



one of the unreleased tracks is hilariously named HÜSKER DÖNT hahahahahaaaaa. i wanna hear what that sounds like...

Napalm Death - Scum

Very late to Weyes Blood's Titanic Rising's "party", but I'm just enraptured by it. The distinguished misters Aragon and Severian will burn in heck. Heck I tell ya.

nine inch nail's Adrift & At Peace from the album, all the could have been/still. such a calming song yet it makes me rethink all of my life choices. A lot of Trent Reznor's more down to earth songs are like that.

American Football, and loving it.

had an itch i had to scratch this morning lol

Heck's got good music, so I've heard. And I actually liked that album, even loved about half of it. A Lot's Gonna Change and Wild Time are among my favorite tunes of this year. I just wasn't completely taken in by all of the tracks on it. I find Movies incredibly overrated for instance, by no means a bad song, but it sounds somewhat "pale" compared to some of the more folky/upbeat tunes on that album and I don't think her voice can really shine in that minimalistic soundscape. Just my opinion though. I remember actually disliking Picture Me Better, but I hardly remember how it sounded anymore. Will revisit the album soon for a more fresh take. There's certainly great stuff in there, I just found it a bit inconsistent.

this old relic



it’s still good. okay it sounds a little dated, but still. good album.

Bloody hell
There's an open air Techno festival too close nearby until 1AM

So I'm listening to Double Negative to piss off the neighbors some more. Fight bad bassdrums with good bass drums ...

Drone not drones

Surfer Rosa. Almost finished Cobain's top 50.

The idea was to find some relaxing music on Bandcamp to wake up to, so I did a search for Beethoven. Then I found this:

It's so crap that it's brilliant

Edit: After looking for my initial post, I realized it was Mirror Forever I actively disliked. And listening to it again, I haven't changed my opinion. I really don't like electronic percussion and the sterile atmosphere of that track. I think Weyes Blood is great at those sweeping/jangly ballads and has some wicked pop sensibilities. But I just can't really warm up to her more low-key, rather electronic-sounding output. I think it just doesn't suit her vocal delivery. Picture Me Better is alright, now listening to it again, to me at least it's just not especially memorable. The opener, Everyday, Something To Believe and Wild Time are top-notch in my book though.

Edgar Froese - Macula Transfer

The Del-Byzanteens - Lies To Live By

(Again)

What an underrated gem

Tonight it will be Trey Gunn's album "Untune The Sky"... but just now I finished up side 1 of Fripp & Eno's Even Spaces, which was a bootleg of the two of them playing live in Paris during I think 1975 which was released on 2 lp's...

Franco Battiato's Clic. It's an amazing modern classical album from the 70s that is all over the place. Conventional instruments, synthesizers, electric instruments. There are flavors of jazz, krautrock, and acid rock.
