I've always liked them but it was my boyfriend that made me listen to them everyday and ended up really loving them.Same goes for Saint Etienne,one of the most underrated pop bands ever.They have a huge amount of good songs to choose from.It's also in the lyrics i think.I have B&S doing xmas covers,have you got those?

Sonic Youth - Sonic Youth

Bought some albums yesterday, Rather Ripped being one. I'm liking it.

i'm still waiting for my lightning bolt albums on the mail

about 10 days ago i got os mutantes-tecnicolor; stereolab-batchelor pad (used), and animal collective-here comes the indian (i think--im not sure-- this completes their major discography in my shelves).

Pentagram - First Daze Here Too

I was not disappointed.

last album i got was.
Rock against Bush vol. 2

TooL- "Lateralus" (vinyl)

Office Space soundtrack.

Imported Bonus Tracks version. Recorded live the same month as the SY EP reissue show.

Radiohead's The Bends which is a classic i should have got a long time ago

At a church fete in Chester today, I paid 50p for an old vinyl thing called 'What Passing Bell'. It's a collection of First World War poetry and prose read by several well-known figures, from 1964 (50th anniversary of the outbreak). The usual stuff (Sassoon, Haig, Owen etc), but what actually drew my attention was the name of one of the speakers; Michael Hordern was the voice of the original TV series of PAddington Bear! Splendid.

I also got a nice 10" LP of Sibelius' Violin Concerto in D Minor (year not stated), by David Oistrakh and the Stockholm Festival Orchestra.

On my last day at work, all vinyl:

Robbie Basho - The Grail And The Lotus, Takoma 1966
Jack Goldstein - Planets 6x10" box set on Neutral
Carla Bley/Paul Haines - Escalator Over The Hill 3xLP box set
M. Nageswara Rao - The Voice Of Tanam: Ghana Raga Panchakam (Vina solos on Nonesuch)

I don't think I'll be buying anything for a while...

velvet underground- v/u and nico
velvet underground- white light/white heat
rather ripped (it was cheaper than bad moon rising. if RIPfrey reads this i know he will kill me.)

so did i! i loved it!

The Mars Volta's Frances the mute on CD

Poor thing.

does anyone know when new material by the following is coming out...
Made in Mexico
Shellac
the Locust ????

Never.

Whirlwind Heat - Types of Wood

Hey Hayden don't you like The Mars Volta?
To be honest when I got I really didn't get it at all. Its a kinda musical overload. But after a few listens it really reveals itself to you. Its kinda a NYCG&F flowers kinda thing!

Nope. Fucking overhyped shite they are.

Deloused had a few decent tracks but Frances was absolutely terrible.

I just bought 6 new cdrs from KK Rampage & pre-ordered the new Xiu Xiu single.

sonic youth - rather ripped

I bought two discs yesterday:

Liars - They Were Wrong, So We Drowned
Girls Against Boys - You Can't Fight What You Can't See

my last 8...

Keiji Haino & Tatsuya Yoshida: New Rap
Dead C.: The Damned
Charalambides: A Vintage Burden
Tom Carter & Robert Horton: Lunar Eclipse
Birchville Cat Motel: Siberian Earth Curve
Fursaxa: Lepidoptera
My Cat Is An Alien: When the Windmill's Whirl Dies
Jack Rose: Raag Manifestos

Yeah, they are really great, and they have a really fruitfull back-catalog. The Ep collection is really fine, but I'll advice you to get If You're Feeling Sinster, which I see as album by B&S, but Tigermilk comes very close.

I went on a bit of a music bender the other day and picked up these:

Serena Maneesh (on vinyl)
2 by Royal Trux (the bone cover s/t & Cats and Dogs)
Th' Faith Healers - Peel Sessions
De La Soul - Three Feet High (yes, even though I was around in 89, it took me this long to pick it up. I'm a slacker.)

Couple weeks ago I picked up Nico's Marble Index (vinyl).

Neutral Milk Hotel - Everything Is 7"
Xiu Xiu - Knife Play LP(I only had it on cd before)
Xiu Xiu - Fag Patrol 7"

mighta been Chapel Of the Chimes - Xiu Xiu
yeesh, it's been too long since i bought music... (only good local record store moving.)

John Coltrane Quartet - Ballads, on vinyl. I don't even have a record player, but I couldn't pass it up.

"Out there a minute" - Sun Ra

It's a blast first compilation of Sun Ra's rare tracks from the early 60s.

puccini - la boheme

Some good buys. How'd you score that?

I saw the Allman Brothers about a year ago. Derek Trucks may not be Duane, but he's fucking amazing.

yeah, he's really young to
a record store about an hour away is closing down pretty soon. everything in there was 50% to 80% off. i got a couple of those records for a dollar

richard hell- blank generation
lydia lunch- the drowning of lucy hamilton/ in limbo

two great albums that were consolation for a day in which a woman had a screaming mental breakdown at my house, to the point that someone called the police.
