Genteel Death · 11.10.2010, 04:16 PM

Cheers.

fugazifan · 11.10.2010, 04:16 PM

agreed.
all of their material is pretty much great. double nickels and all three post mersh compilations which contains all of their albums except fro double nickels, three way tie, and ballot result.

atsonicpark · 11.10.2010, 05:23 PM

double nickels is great but not one of my favorites, it's just too long and i don't like the production... too stiff. three way tie and the post mersh stuff are my favorites. ballot result is... uh... not my thing. but yeah it's nice how you can get all their albums in just a few albums. all their ep's were amazing.

i HIGHLY reccomend their documentary, we jam econo.

they're a big influence on me, musically, all the musicians were brilliant.

genteel, do you like wire? the first 3 wire albums are basically my favorite albums by any band. id' really like to get some more "art punk" (like early the fall and swell maps, too -- any reccomendations?).

atsonicpark · 11.10.2010, 05:26 PM

you've seen the we jam econo doc, right fugazifan? holy shit it's good.

oh and trust me on this new solo album, fugazifan -- it's by far watt's best solo album EVER, he said he's been listening to minutemen for the first time since d. boon died. it's like minutemen except a lot more abstract.. like i said, double nickels era meets doc at the radar station era beefheart. it's fucking goooooood. i will bet you a hundred dollars it will be your favorite album of the year, or at least up there. SO FUCKING GOOD. i am literally happy as hell to hear it.. it seriously makes me want to stop everything i'm doing and record a new album. it's THAT inspiring.

Genteel Death · 11.10.2010, 05:31 PM

Yeah, Wire and much of Colin Newman solo is some of my favourite music.

Genteel Death · 11.10.2010, 05:33 PM

Oh and thanks to you both.

fugazifan · 11.10.2010, 11:17 PM

yeah, we jam econo is one of my favorite documentaries. such inspiring and interesting people.
whats crazy about the minutemen is the amount of quality work in five years. they barely have a song that i dont like and they have like over a hundred.

what i think is brilliant about double nickels is the amount of song to great song ratio which is almost equal. i never get bored and i like all the songs. its just incredible how they could record so many song sin such a small amount of time and unlike other bands in that scene, all of the songs stand for themselves and dont rehash other ones.

chairman of the bored · 11.15.2010, 07:54 PM

couple o' things:

New Kurt Vile 7'' called In My Time. Worth checking out. Cleaner (more generic?) than his other stuff, but this guy is still so consistently good.

Raspberry Bulbs, comprised of one of the dudes from Bone Awl, is making tapes that sound like Bone Awl but way more crust punk with some actual singing...kind of. But it's fucking awesome. Get the Lone Gunman one first.

loubarret · 11.17.2010, 06:02 AM

The new Total Abuse record is where it's at, extremely lo-fi blend between hardcore and noiserock with some power electronics thrown into the mix.

atsonicpark · 11.21.2010, 10:27 AM

really into the new not breathing - christy cores... excellent electronic stuff. cool as hell. just a really good sound to it. dark.

Cleric - Regressions

put out on Web of Mimicry,:

http://www.webofmimicry.com/catalog/...products_id=85

When we here at WoM ran across Cleric's music it almost seemed as if some kind of prophesy was being fulfilled. The music registered in our minds as a kind of missing link, like an inevitable stage in metal-oriented music that has needed to happen for a long time now. Yet somehow the seat of that destiny has remained ever vacant until this particular band came along. Like everything good, it took the tireless commitment of people unifying behind a vision which for some reason always ends up having to fight against every stream, every atrophy, every regression into easy answers, in order to reach its goal. There's no accounting for how "niche" bands are perceived, even when they are fulfilling a destiny as clear as the one Cleric has taken on. It's for this reason that lowly WoM is once again graced by one of the finest and well-honed musical expressions to emerge from any music scene in the last decade.

A four piece from Philadelphia, Cleric's music mixes elements of grindcore, avant garde composition, doom and... something else entirely? Influenced by other metal pioneers such as Meshuggah, Converge, Fantômas, and Neurosis, their music zeroes in on a level of brutality and experimentation that a single band rarely maintains even for a few seconds. In their six years since inception, Cleric has released a number of EPs and a 12" picture disk through Sound Devastation Records (UK), all of which (for their very high quality and unique & intricate sounds and artwork) have garnered praise and die-hard underground accolade. Having been around awhile, and taken a lot of shit & not given up & built themselves up internally to handle whatever bullshit this world flings their way, this band is just beginning its walk down their shining path.

Marolo · 12.02.2010, 02:27 PM
