That was how I first discovered her. It was such an insane set, I had to ask somebody next to, "Who is this chick?" That same show DIRECTLY inspired me to start taking music seriously, as previously I hadn't realized a two-piece band could be legit, and when I saw what she did was just a guitar and a drummer, I was motivated to do the same. It was and remains the LOUDEST, THRASHING, and DISTORTED show I've ever been too, and I was in the Crust/Anarcho scene for several ear-busting years

New Boards of Canada is definitely a competitor. I didn't even really have time to process it fully, but Christ... What a dark, beautiful nightmare it appears to be.

When the new Kanye comes out, this is going to be one of the biggest years ever in terms of "most anticipated" albums. So far it's delivering like crazy. My top five albums change every week, but new Lips, MBV, Daft Punk, Boards of fucking Canada, and even a new Nine Inch Nails by year's end? Gotta be some kind of record for rekindled sonic nostalgia.

That's cool, man. When I saw her she had a bassist and a drummer with her, but it was still a very powerful performance. She has a unique style on guitar, I dig it very much. And as good as her records are, when I saw her live it really blew me away in a way the records don't quite manage. Really hope I get the chance to see her again some time.

Before Over the Sun was released in June 2004 I was chasing that edge and intensity of her live stage show through out her back catalogue for two fucking years. I wasn't disappointed, I mean her acoustic albums are coffee shop with a fierce almost psychosis, and then Dyed in the Wool is perhaps a top-ten record of all time for me. That album is like what would happen if Portishead and radiohead collaborated and just didn't look back.

In an interview she said she finally put together Over the Sun because all her fans had been telling her just how different her stage show was from all her albums, and how they were really hoping to hear that on records. I was thinking, my thoughts exactly! So she said she decided to record an album that better reflected what she had been doing on the road, and I think that Steve Albini nailed it! Over the Sun is also an epic record..

Shit, not to mention that stark Yann Tiersen collaboration, that album has the moving force of like Shindler's List!

I can only assume you are referring to Boards Of Canada and Blue Oyster Cult.

Nisennenmondai new album is ace. 3 10 min + tracks which sound like a cross between post-punk and techno, such a great band.

No worries, only share stuff I'm really enjoying.

I have been listening to this LP quite a bit recently. Some ghoulish post-punk courtesy of downwards which is normally associated with industrial techno but seems to be expanding into shoegaze and post-punk.
