sequence 9.....gives me goosebumps

I've been listening to nothing but Cosmos. It moves from Border Down-esque jazz fusion to eerie ambience with constant ease. Best Goblin tribute band ever.

New Crystal Castles.

Same here. It's pretty good.

Also listening to Fever Ray. It's the solo album of Karen Dreijer from The Knife. Very good and gets better with each subsequent listen.

[Jon]

McKlusky - The Difference Between Me & You Is That I'm Not on Fire
The Depreciation Guild - new LP

Also listening to Fever Ray. It's the solo album of Karen Dreijer from The Knife. Very good and gets better with each subsequent listen.

The very definition of a "grower" album. I bought it, was underwhelmed, loaded into itunes and traded it in at the local record store. Wish I hadn't.

[Acid King]

Admiral Angry - A Fire to Burn Down the World

Holy shit is this heavy. It's a shame their guitarist died, it would have been really great to watch this band progress.

[Square King]

Hou - Reticulating Inner Shade
Hail Architeuthis - EP and bits of Herald the Harbinger...

get 'em both @ http://aurisapothecary.org/

n.b. not affiliated with these bands/label and I won't get money if you click that link, blah blah.

Acid King and like-minded foos, check out Hail Architeuthis. You'll love it.

Been listening to the Who lately. Don't know why it took me so long to listen to all their stuff, it's incredible. The Who Sell out is amazing and my favorite album of theirs, but everything up through Quadrophenia is great. After that not so much.

Yeah, that's an interesting one. Haven't heard it in a while. I should give it another listen.

I'm working on a new website, which will have a bit about math rock on it, so I'm revisiting all of my favorite Don Caballero and other related stuff.

It's ok.

[Obiwanshinobi]

Aye, nothing beats listening to Das Ich whilst reading the official Touhou manga.
P.S. Man, is it a shame there seems to be no proper version of Des Satans neue Kleider on YouTube. Only some ponce remix...

[MX7]

Xiu Xiu - Everything.

Finally got to see them live on Sunday. An absolutely awesome experience. Everything was so different to the albums, and so well taylored to a live setting, from the throbbing death-bass to the clanging of scrap metal. Even the calmer songs seemed to have been fed through a meat grinder. It made me realise how much I fucking hate going to gigs where they just play the album back to you. Case in point: Radiohead. I used to adore that band, until I saw the limp excuse for their live show back in 2003. I might have well have listened to their singles very loud while surrounded by middle class white twats. Rarrr rarrr rarrr.

Augury - Fragmentary Evidence

FInally checked out this band's second album, and I must say I am disappoint

Their first album called Concealed was a bloody fucking masterpiece. Such a shame. Just read now that long time drummer and bassist both left after the recording for this album was finished. Oh well, at least we got one good album from them.

If anyone is interested Check out the songs:

The Lair of Purity
Cosmic Migration

Both from their first album.

[AraraSPAMWitch]

Morbid Saint - Spectrum of Death

LOCK UP YOUR CHILDREN! Killer fuckin' album!

btw everyone should be listening to Xe-NONE and their 666% Dance Metal [RAVE]volution! MOSCOW NEVER SLEEPS

lol on the Radiohead comment. So is xiu xiu British? Because if they're American, like I thought, that's quite a tour for an indie band.
