I've discovered A Place To Bury Strangers. Their 'Exploding Head' LP sounds like a three-way between Bauhaus, Depeche Mode and My Bloody Valentine. It's amazing.

I picked up Q and Not U's debut album No Kill No Beep Beep. It has some very tracks but fades a little towards the end. Also bought Liar by the Jesus Lizard which is of course awesome. Can't get enough of David Wm. Sims bass - the sound is incredible.

The lead singer and guitar player is also famous for producing his own line of guitar pedals. Appropriately called Death by Audio, their catalog consists of lots of fuzz and noise pedals, with 'Fuzz War' probably being the most famous.

Sinfonia by New Model Army

I’m usually skeptical about band + orchestra projects. Most of them are terrible and make you wish you could listen to either without the other. In fact, Lingua Mortis by Rage is the only good one I can think of.

… unit now. This NMA album is all sorts of awesome. This doesn’t just sound like a regular band performance with some added strings, it sounds like a new 40-headed band. I can’t get over how fantastic this is. Highly recommended!

I've been listening to some old John Peel shows on YouTube and discovered this Ruts DC track, which lyrics remind me of a typical Thomas Ligotti story. They named themselves Ruts DC after the death of The Ruts singer Malcom Owen.

Antonella Ruggiero - Matia Bazar "Ti Sento"(1985)
Spoiler

Lyrics:
Spoiler
the word has no taste or idea
but two invading eyes
if they have no soul

I feel you, the music is moving barely
i have a world exploding into me
I feel you, a shiver donw my back
a body that that burst from the center


do you love me or not, do you love me or not, do you love?

What will be left of you, of your poetry
while the shadow of the sleep slowly fades away
if it has no soul...no soul

I'm feeling you, beautiful statue sumberged
sitten, laying, unshy
I feel you atlantis, losen island
lovers only indicated


do you love me or not, do you love me or not, do you love me?

I feel you, a fare-away desert, a mirage
the sand is trying to blind me
I'm feeling you, in the air a wild love
I'd like to meet you

OMG! Never heard it before, and i love it!
It seems like the italian version of old anime intros that my mother forced me to watch, because she watched in 70/80s D: (and some are far way better than the originals, especially the lyrics of Hokuto No Ken :shock: )

Oliver's old band Skywave is awesome too, I was a big fan.

I got this ep when it came out:

Ignoring the lyrics

On the waves with windsurfing
sailing towards Africa
In ears a bit of music
Me and You

Large roads and galleries
Under the sun of America
From sunday to sunday
Me and You

I look at the world from a cloud
it fits in my hand
I look at the world from a cloud
Behind the day goes away

And the plane flies away
Above the mountains and above my house
Breakfast and sun in Bahian
Me and You

A seagull goes away
towards the horizon he goes away
I look down at the small houses
Here with You

Above the dreams i would like
On a kite we are
Where the sun is another, where you want
Me and you

I look at the world from a cloud
it fits in my hand
I look at the world from a cloud
Behind the day goes away

And the plane flies away
Without limits for the imagination
For the East, still go away
Me and You

that are childish and hot at the same time, as if she were a teenager living her dream of falling in love with a rich man and flying around the world on his plane.

Natural blonde

My space music!

Sidereal star
Sweet and passionate
You will have me

Follow my signal
And an astral love
You will find

Weirdly fits the SHMUPS theme :lol: like Sexy Parodius...with less parodius and more Gradius.

Very nice, never checked the lyrics to that one.

I'll throw you another one that has the same vibe, this one in Spanish. Might be harder to find lyrics for this one though.

Ha, that one's a jam too. That song pops up here and there probably more often than the other one. I think sometimes it's better NOT to know the lyrics!

This one is cool.


Something different:
Record of Lodoss War [ITA]
I know that the music is the same for every version, i don't know for the lyrics:

Moonlight, the panting of the wind will shake
the pale moon of my thoughts
Eternal perfume, of the homeland that gave you birth
hint of nostalgia

I am a prisoner, torn from reality
far from the light that will swallow my heart

I am a prisoner, dreams no longer speak to me
only my breath can fly away from me

Idk why :? nevermind the music is the same in every language, was just the opening of Record of Lodoss War.
That mix sounds like something that i must listen in a specific session. Saved for later!.





Marmalade Boy Opening :o

the version i grew up with:
ママレードボーイOP イタリア版 - Marmalade Boy Italian Opening (Sono Piccoli Problemi di Cuore)
