Subject: shit stirring/dcd apart?


First, to the person asking about Lisa Gerrard living in Australia and
Brenden in Ireland, yes its true.  They work independently and when an album
is nearing completion, Lisa goes out to Ireland.  But that may all change.  I
remember when I was talking with her husband, Jack (I know its spelled a bit
different than that Jacek?, but Jack is what it sounds like), he mentioned
something briefly about Lisa getting a studio put in at their place.  So, if
Lisa and Brendan have compatible tape machines, they'll be able to work on
music together without ever having to be together physically.  However, I
probably shouldn't even be talking about how I know the band, or else certain
people here (like STEVE HILL) will blast me for being biased when I talk
about their music (I don't care; I like DCD regardless).

And that brings me to another point.  What is wrong with a lot of people on
this list?  Like all the Cocteau Twins suck; they're eighties hasbeens, or
Love Spirals Sucks-they're Cocteau me-toos, or Belly Sucks, etc. etc. etc.
 It's all a bit immature.  I don't see this kind of
one-line-unsupported-hate-trashing on other lists, so what is up here?

My suggestion:  If you don't like this kind of music, then don't waste your
time on this list.  Do something else with your life (life's short you know).
 Or if that's too much to ask, why not tell us about some band or album that
you do like.  I know its much easier to say 'band X sucks' but give it a
shot, I know you can do it.

I just got my 4ad mail order catalogue *gasp*, and with it, I got an ad
for a upcoming v23 book. This book is some sort of v23 walkthrough from
1988-1994. Anyway, they also mentioned a limited edition of the book (500
ex). This one could be ordered in advance...priced somewhere between 70-80
pounds. Has anyone got any info on what this limited edition looksl like?
Should mere mortals go for the standard book instead?

Subject: Re: butterfly child

              digest processor on Wed, 16 Nov 1994 00:00:15 -0500)

Someone asked about Butterfly Child a while back.

Discography as far as I remember:
"Tooth Fairy" ep
"Eucalyptus" ep
"Juice" Rough Trade Singles Club 7 inch
"Ghetto Speak" ep
"Onomatopoeia" double lp
"Beaujolais" ep

Its not often I'd give blanket praise, but really, all these are wonderful.
I have a special affection for the first two eps.

The easiest box to put Butterfly Child into are the ARKane school of
dream-pop. Descriptions of them usually involve many metaphors involving
going back to the womb or to earliest childhood. They were signed to
ARKane's H!Ark label, along with their more experimental alter-ego, Papa
Sprain. (Papa Sprain did two eps and a release in the Singles Club. The
bands shared some musicians, at least.) Butterfly Child are on Dedicated
these days.

found the new ARKane album here in the UK. The big stores actually stare
at me blankly and fail to find it on release lists. Am I just picking
particularly dumb big stores and being unlucky? It is out, surely?

It has been out for about a month in the UK.  The name (as ever) is
causing problems for the staff of record shops.  One in Leicester seems
to think there is an EP by Kane, A. R, and an album by A. R. Kane.
Try looking in the "K" section.  As it's on Third Stone (indie label run
by Spacemen 3 / Bark Psychosis management), distribution may be a
problem - but I would have thought it would have reached Manchester.

Oooh, ouch. :)
No, why? You're providing a very good answer to a very good question.
The question didn't even involve your opinion.
Anyway, regarding compatible equipment, that's very true...think about how
many projects are completed these days without any direct personal contact.
Heck, even Thurtene came together with very little direct contact. Of course,
they'll have to get together to rehearse for a tour...

On the subject of why the maturity level here has dropped...first you need to
separate the serious "they suck" posts from the just-kidding ones. That still
leaves quite a few, and I think it's just a by-product of the Internet
population growing by such significant leaps and bounds. 4ad-l has always been
one of the most helpful, articulate, and intelligent lists on the net, so even
the recent rash of non-articles and baiting has merely dropped the level to
average. We're experienced enough to know that the best thing to do is ignore
it, because it does go away.

        First off, i don't think very many of us appreciate the Beavis and
Butthead one-liners for many reasons (including wasted Bandwidth, lack of
maturity, pointlessness, etc.) and we've made that clear.  The kind of person
who posts that kind of dung is probably just thriving off of our annoyedness.
        Secondly, there are better ways of telling someone to shorten their
.sig.  I would much rather see everyone have a long .sig than have every other
post be a Beavis and Butthead retortathon one-liner.
        Lastly, since when was T. S. Elliot obscure????  (And gnome, you really
ought to give the cocteau twins at least a listen--try Treasure)

        18th dye are from Denmark. If my memory serves, they have somewhat

on a small Danish indie label, that last receiving great praise from the
Brit mags (that might be an avenue to pursue).  I also know that they played
at last year's CMJ fest in NYC, and they are the one of Yo La Tengo's faves.
A lot of meaniingless factoids, I know. Hey, I'd like to get a hold of a copy

one of my friends has it, i haven't listened to the whole thing but what i have
heard is abit difficult to classify or describe... consequently i love it
(most of it anyway)

i remember another projekt band lycia was interviewed by alternative press (?)
and the singer said that he considered his voice as more of just another
melodic instrument in a way.  perhaps lovesliescrushing's singer thinks along
the same lines.  i think her voice adds much to the music-- you could say it
makes a beautiful counter-point to the often rough, distorted music in a realm
where intelligibility of the lyrics is completely beside the point.  does
anybody think that the cocteau twins should have gotten rid of elizabeth
frasier because "you can't make out a word?"

Subject: DCD working apart...


        During the guest appearance on KCRW during AVAM Lisa said specifically
that she doesn't send tapes to Brendan. She mentioned that they work apart
because two people working on their own ideas in the same place results in a
loss of creative energy. Also, she said that she was planning to take her
family with her to Ireland in February(?) for six months to work on new DCD
material (we can only hope) after their respective solo projects are done.


        Also if anyone lives out in the San Gabriel Valley area and didn't make
it to the v23 exhibit, Rhino Records here in Claremont had some copies of the
exhibition catalog, the v23 poster set, AVAM videos and CDs the last time I
was there.

Gawsh, I still don't think loveliescrushing sounds like MBV... some of
the guitar sounds are *vaguely* similar, but the songs aren't...

Do you mean you can't hear the vocals (how could you be saying this
then...) or you can't understand the vocals?

heck, I can't understand the guitar chords in some swirlies stuff, so
why have the guitars?

Dearest Friends,

The reason for adding vocals, even when you cannot make out a word is for
an audio effect, and in the case of loveliescrushing, it works. The vocals are
wonderfully beautiful and quite tranquil, besides, I must agree with k, lovelies
is MUCH better than MBV!!!

Subject: Jo Wiggs / Kate Schellenbach in ADVOCATE


The latest ADVOCATE (11/1/94) has an interview with Jo Wiggs and Kate
Schellenbach. The table of contents blurb says: "When Lucious Jackson's Kate
Shellenbach met the Breeders' Josephine Wiggs, lesbian love bloomed. Today,
the two are your basic couple with everyday concerns, such as managing two
careers and starting a family". The article is of good length, very
interesting (they plan to record an album of cover songs, Schellenbach
arranged "Head to Toe," some behind-the scenes stuff from the Breeders/LJ
tour), great pictures.

Subject: PROJEkT


Greetings,

   I just got the PROJEkT boxset "Of These Reminders..." and it is incredable!!
I highly recommend it to anyone who is into darkambient/experimental. I
love BTfaBG and really looked forward to this set since it is the PROJEkT
roster covering various BTfaBG songs, but it turned out to be much more than
I thought. Actually, these songs sound nothing, NOTHING at all like the
originals which is intresting and good since it shows artistic originality
within the world of cover songs.
   The highlights of this two disc set are the contributions made by:
           *LYCIA - 'ACROSS A THOUSAND BLADES'
                    'THIS LUSH GARDEN WITHIN'

           *SOUL WHIRLING SOMEWHERE - 'I WISH YOU COULD SMILE'
           *LOVELIESCRUSHING -(can't remember the track).

    Other great bands on this disc include: STOA, STAY FRIGHTENED, SUNWHEEL,
SAM ROSENTHALL (why should he appear on this??).

Sorry for rambling,

Alfred Douglas

I concur, from the pictures I've seen of Brendan's house.  They hole
themselves up in there for long stretches of time to focus on recording.
But it didn't always used to be that way.  Brendan and Lisa were once
romantically involved, spending a lot more time together than they do nowadays.
(I got this from published interviews, especially in the _Alternative Press_.
I hate to spread this kind of gossip, but enquiring minds want to

Geez, Richard, you sound awfully bitter.
I get the feeling you don't like me very much.  Thats fine.
But I can't deny my love for that video, no matter how much you cry about
it, or try to downplay it's wonderfull-ness.
My first dose of WEEZER was when they opened for LUSH in Cleveland earlier
this summer.  And they were GREAT!  So, yes, I like their music.  That, and
I find the video wonderfully amusing.  And even though it is OBVIOUSLY a
"Forrest Gump-type merging technique", it is still very entertaining.
Nirvana's "in bloom" may be the first to do that type of video, but who
cares?  The WEEZER one blows it away anyways.
I really think you ought to lighten the FUCK up and try to enjoy yr life.
Maybe even relax a little.

Are you talking about CAPITAL LETTERS?  I guess I can see the similarity.
Just those sampled parts.  As soon as it takes off, it's different.
Pram sound way underproduced... which is kind of cool... but sometimes I
just want them to just bust out and go nuts... but of course they don't.
And when I go to turn the volume up, all I hear is tape hiss (from a CD).
They could stand to get a producer.
  Would you want to copy some PRAM that I don't have for me Susan?

Subject: Lisa Germano & Pale Saints...


Hello all,
  I just wanted to tell everyone what a great show this was in Salt
Lake City.  They were here last night.  It was a very small show (50
or so people at its peak).  It was absolutely to die for.  Lisa
Germano was incredible with her violin playing, and the Pale Saints
were just awesome.  The Pale Saints even played "Kinky Sex."  After
the show I talked to Grahame, and he said that the Salt Lake show was
the first time that they played that song live in about 3 years.
I think that this is the first time ever I can say that I am
glad I live in Utah.
  If the show is coming your way, I would strongly recommend seeing
it, it's worth it.  By the way, does anyone know where I could
acquire the tour promo poster?  It's wonderful...

Ben
