Get it fixed pronto! That split is pretty ace. I hadn't really liked much of the Yellow Swans stuff I'd heard before, I mainly bought it for the Goslings side, but I liked the Yellow Swans stuff as well. The Warmth/Yellow Swans split on DNT records (I think) is also pretty ace. I think I like "that kind of thing", whatever that may mean, on 7" more than on a full album. Apart from Goslings who I enjoy for the full hour at quite high volume. Grandeur of Hair makes me feel warm and wooly.

Oh, and I won a copy of a 3xlp Kraut Rock compilation on ebay the other day. This one:

damn all your income, but i actually bought the new To Live and Shave in LA album "Les Tricoteuses" at their show, and Tom actually gave me a copy of Group: Xex

after some debts are paid, and if the potential for steady income is realized will get back on the train and start picking up a lot of things

death in june/current 93 - 1988

for a decent price.

i've gotten a lot of albums lately but i haven't bought them; they're mostly from trades and promos.

Cave In-Beyond Hypothermia

Battles "mirrored" , uh.

my friend visited me from Ny so she i made sure that she went to my favorite cd store-the downtown music gallery.
she got me
SME-challenge
derek bailey-ballads
ruins-symphonic

the first two are great, have not gotten into the ruins tho.
and then tuesday night i saw the peter brotzmann and joe mcphee quartet. fucking brillant. one of the top shows i have ever seen.
and i got one of their albums too...

The Dead C - Future Artists
Kemialliset Ystävät - Alkuhärkä (had to check twice how to spell both the band name and the title)

Nice, band kicks so much ass.

At the Arcade Fire/shopping, I picked up:
Neutral Milk Hotel- ITAOTS (fina-fucking-ly)
Les Georges Leningrad- Monster Klaw/Clean Up 7"
Arcade Fire- Keep The Car Running b/w Broken Window 7"
Handsome Furs- Plague Park LP (1 week before official release!):D

Oi! Send it my way!!! Band destroys.

i think i should have added the word "yet" havent gotten into the ruins YET;)
its a cool album, but VERY proggy, and not noisy.
it just needs a few more spins...

Nothing this week.

Mammatus- The Coast Explodes

Pretty awesome but maybe not as awesome as their first. If you haven't heard them I highly recommend them if you're a fan of Hawkwind, Acid Mothers Temple, Comets on Fire, Sleep....

Julia Kent - Delay
http://www.myspace.com/julia_kent

Dinosaur Jr-You're All Living Over Me-finally, cheap it was, too.
Slint-Spiderland

just got Land Speed Record (on vinyl)-Husker Du as a birthday present

so this one is a boring wankfest? as opposed to the wankfest that was their debut.

I thought you already had this one, as a big dino fan. I'm surprised.
I hope you v'e listen to it before.

^It was the only one I couldnt find. I did listen to the songs before, but I never had the record because I couldn't be bothered to order it online and i couldnt find it in stores, and today I saw it there.

But yes, now I have all the records, I'm gonna order the singles and the eps soon. But I need bloody Hand It Over on an original cd, I only have a copied one, and the album is out of print.

I must admit I don't have all the album after Greenmind yet, but I'm gonna buy them soon . I've just heard few songs on each album. Wich one do you recommend me, to start ?

Well, theres only 3, Where You Been, Without A Sound and Hand It Over.

Get Where You Been, its got Out There, Start Choppin and other Dino classics. Without a Sound is pretty orgasmic as well.

Thanks for your advice, man.:)

Got team dresch - personal best and man or astroman? - EEVIAC through the post the other day - both classics!

i got my first paycheck from my new job yesterday.

before my family left to go to Oregon, i bought Dungen's new one, Tio Bitar. not bad; i'll give it a seven.

while in Portland this morning, i bought:



on vinyl for ten bucks at Ozone Records (which is going out of business).

we then drove over to Fabulous Jackpot Records where i purchased:



also on vinyl for eighteen(!) dollars.

My last trip to the record shop yielded:

Acid Mothers Temple & Escapade: A Thousand Shades of Grey
Aethenor: Deep In Ocean Sunk the Lamp of Light
Hawkwind: Year 2000: Codename Hawkwind Vol. 1
Kelly Deal 6000: Go to the Sugar Altar
Cobra Killer & Kapajkos: Das Mandolinenorchester

I've had such a strain on cash lately I haven't bought much. Last thing I bought was Year Zero by Nine Inch Nails. Probably will buy the Meat Puppets new record when it comes out and QOTSA's Era Vulgaris.

I just ordered:

Royal Trux - Singles, Live, Unreleased 3xLP
Royal Trux - Cats and Dogs LP

All on LP
Lou Reed- New York
Pink Floyd- Wish You Were Here
Neil Young- Trans (Promo)

Nice ones!

It took me almost three years to persuade my friend to sell me the original vinyl version of The Velvet Underground's What Goes On box set. She just just wouldn't let go off it.

I strike gold very often at the Flea Market
Last week we got
Black Flag- My War, Dead Kennedys- Plastic Surgery Disasters and a shit load of Bob Dylan. The guy cuts me a pretty good deal to

I bought La Foret - Xiu Xiu.

Battles - Mirrored

Did I make a good choice?

Dunno, I'm not much of a Battles fan I think. But that's based on seeing one live performance, I haven't listened to any of their albums all the way through.


Last albums I bought were

Cop Shoot Cop - Ask Questions Later
Comets on Fire - Avatar
Comets on Fire - Live at Butlins Holiday Resort, Minehead, U.K. 12.09.06 (what a stupid title!)

got this as a Bday present: Bad Brains-S/T

A Be Your Own Pet Record. The one with a black and white cover. Can't remember what its called.

Whitehouse - Great White Death (one of their greatest albums probably)
Religious Knives - Remains (quite beautiful)
Original Silence - First Original Silence (very disappointing)
Borbotemagus - Experience the Magic of (haven't spun it yet but should be typically excellent)
Thurston Moore + Tom Surgal - Klangfarbenmelodie and the Colorist Strikes Primitiv (listening to it now, seems very decent)
Dead C - Eusa Kills LP (haven't had a chance to give this a proper listen but first impressions are quite favourable)
Dead C - Future Artists (a wee bit underwhelemd after first listen, seems like the sort of album that will grow on me as I am already feeling compelled to spin it again in the near future)

I heard that recently and, being generally of a non-noise persuasion, I was amazed how much I liked it, especially the final track.

Blonde Redhead - 23 (my band got it for my 25th bday)

The Sisters of Mercy - Floodland (gosh, it sounds GREAT)
