Tool- Parabola (DVD). I watched it a few hours ago. Confusing shit. I couldn`t understand even the fucking Jello Biafra comments on the band and the video. i´d like to enjoy Tool videos without thinking of smoking weed.

...................................
The Melvins- (a) Senile animal. Holy crap! It´s a great record. I curse myself for not buying it before.

..............................
Skinny Puppy- It ain´t dead yet? (DVD). I was just watching this one when my parents got into my room and started to telling me: "Why in the hell do you listen this horrible shit?", "That sounds like some bastard killing a bloody dog!"... "Are you into drugs or what?", "Turn your TV off, my head is starting to ache"....

Hey, great selections you got here. I haven't yet seen the "Parabola" or Skinny Puppy DVD's, but I did recently get the "Sonic Youth EP" (vinyl version) & (the) MELVINS "A Senile Animal". Both great collections of listening pleasure. & I must say, "A Senile Animal" is great when heard live.

I only know other three people who are Sonic Youth fans... So i jumped over the bin when i saw it, as for (a) Senile Animal i wasn´t conscious enough about the fact that there was a new Melvins album other than the great Houdini live record, i read about it in this mighty board just yesterday, i think, and i told myself i had to buy it or die. It´s a monster of a record, i must say. Amazing Melvins heaviness!...

The "Parabola" DVD includes the video for the song, a weird remix done by Lustmord (kinda boring, i must say), and there`s this Jello Biafra comment on the band and video, but it sounds so confusing i didn`t understand his fucking babble. Other than that, the video is killer visuals done Tool style and the artwork in the CD and packaging is really nice.

I´ve always been a Skinny Puppy fan, a lot of my friends have tell me over the years that this bands fucking deserves to die and be totally forgotten... I don´t care. They make me rock really hard. Sadly, I didn´t finish watching the thing because my parents heard the noise and found it disgusting:D.

I know what ya' mean about how hard it is to find certain SY albums in certain small towns. I had the same problem in not being able to find that record for a long time, than suddenly as if a beaken of light, I saw the SY EP vinyl in my local record store & bought it right there & then.

I have heard the Lustmord track on the Parabola DVD & I agree w/ yr sentiment of it's boredom, however I would love to hear the Jello Biafra babbeling about the band.

Again, props on yr recent pick-ups.

That's how it should have been.

I just bought Dischord 1981: The Year In Seven Inches
Daughters- Hell Songs
and Neutral Milk Hotel- On Avery Island FINALLY came in the mail. Two more still in the mail...

i just ordered cornelius' "sensuous" and can't wait to hear it.

Most recently bought:

Rip It Up and Start Again: Postpunk 1978-1984 which is ok. Some shit on there though. I mean Heaven 17...c'mon.

I was pretty disappointed in the tracklist on that Rip It Up and Start Again compilation. There was an opportunity there to make a really good compilation of '80s alternative music, but it was wasted.

And included Magazine, Pere Ubu, PiL, Throbbing Gristle, Joy Division, to name just a few.

But that's my taste.
