I honestly could not tell you, I think it's a studio recording though. I never even knew it existed, I just walked into a store and it was there. beautiful colour, deep red with intermittent black.

very intense, not nearly as ritualistic or percussive as a lot of z'ev material, in fact it reminds me a lot of japanoise in that it is quite psychedelic and somewhat transcendental when digested as a whole. it's pretty difficult to discern who is doing what though, given the fact that it is at points just a wall of comparatively soft noise. I know that doesn't really make sense, but it's not ear-splitting in any way.

so it's a good release, but it could be perceived as being slightly perfunctory and inessential as a consequence. if you are a fan of both acts though then by all means get your hands on it.

I just went to the Salvation Army and scored a massive haul of CDs, LPs, and books due to their Cinco De Mayo sale.

Though I walked away with some great TOR fantasy, some Gestalt Psychology books, and a copy of the DSM-IV, I was most excited about finding LOW- Things we Lost in the Fire for $.69. I got home and opened it up, and instead of The Low disc, 50 Cent's "the Massacre" stared back at me.

I was a little peeved. But what are you gonna do, right? I put on 50 cent and kicked back with some self diagnosis based on outdated texts.

2 more copies of CATL's albums

funny how they even mentioned how they gave up on Turd Man Records because the same shit's happened to him as well. btw. catl are on tour. not like you are going to go to it, because it's so not Sonic Youth at all

Severian 05.08.2013 06:03 PM

Catl? I feel like I should know what you're talking about.

i found the tam cd on ecstatic peace at goodwill like a year ago and they didn't have the disc, now i found a hooker/ranaldo/parkins cd there and they didn't have the disc! never happens with non sy cds... can't wait to ditch these rap tapes on my friend, the gza is a sick score that will make a muchly lucrative profit

TV Mania - Bored With Prozac & the Internet? I belive the kids nowadays would say that the chaps concerned have 'dropped a bomb'.

One half of them is Duran Duran keyboardist Nick Rhodes, who is one of the coolest people ever.

Dude, the Goodie Mob is a score as well. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

Sucks about the Gift of Tongues (I assume that's what it was...) I've actually had that happen with a shrink wrapped Sonic Youth album before. It was Dirty; I was pissed. Coincidentally, I did not hear the album as a whole until finding a cassette of it at Goodwill later that year.

it was gift of tongues yeah,i downloaded it and it's great, i got the packaging so i'm gonna just put a cdr in there and pretend. crazy that happened to you with shrink wrap on the cd. i love that goodie mob album(more than their first actually) but i wasn't that excited about it since i don't listen to my tapes much and i was getting them for weed money, and the gza one is the only one that's worth anything. although my friend was actually most excited about goodie mob because he thought it wasn't available on tape. also threw in some ice-t, big daddy kane, saukrates, mantronix, snoop dogg, some dancehall tapes, and concert bootlegs of john coltrane and lee perry.

In ascending order. The Byrne/Eno was an impulse but; I've had the album for years, but what else is a man to do when he sees a shrink wrapped copy of the reissue of this album in the used bin? NOT buy it?

Daft Punk- Random Access Memories.

I must have been more drunk than usual when I saw what appeared to be syg users publicly ripping on this. I liked it.

Only one listen in, but still. Not at all bad, and at moments great.
