Yeah, you read right! I don't believe this band has ever been
mentioned once on either of these lists, but I just heard from someone that
their new album _Mellon Collie and Infinite Sadness_, to be released
10/24, was produced by Alan Moulder and Flood!! We of course know what
this means...a shoegazer smashing pumpkins album! Yessindeedee. I, for
one, am excited. I heard from that someone (who had never heard the term
'shoegazer', that the guitar sound was increasingly fuzzy, like how that of
Siamese Dream was extremely overdubbed, overdriven, and layered, but even
more (well, maybe not even more overdubbed. 20-40 guitar tracks per song has
to be the outer limit!). I, incidentally, like the band a lot no matter how
{insert dreampoppy adjective} they are, but this I'll definitely have to
hear. All 25 songs of it...

I know people have been saying rock and roll is dead for almost fifty
years now, but does anyone else here get the sense that for the first
time it doesn't really matter whether it's true or not?

Wel, hang in there. So is Ian McCulloch, and you would appear from the
strength of this post alone to be a better songwriter. ;) Electrafixion
didn't really used to be Echo and the Bunnymen. Les Pattinson (bass) is
missing. (Did I spell his name wrong?) They also have turned into a
relatively good heavy metal band...but still a heavy metal band of sorts,
or at least Hard Rock. last year's Zephyr ep was mopstly pretty
impressive, but the new track sucks. I recommend the first four Echo and
the Bunnymen albums: Crocodiles, Heaven Up Here, Porcupine, and Ocean
Rain, for anyone wanting some super good rock and roll in this dark day.
That stuff is so much better than Electrafixion I just had to say
something about the comparison.
*sigh*
Let's see, while I'm depressed, this year we have lost:
Verve
Swervedriver
The Cure
Catherine Wheel
We've still got:
Peter Murphy
The The
Throwing Muses
Soundgarden
It's looking pretty grim, though, folks. :(

like to share with me (I did see vol 14's track listing mentioned on the list -

IMHO, Echo and the Bunnymen were one of the almightiest bands to ever pick up
guitars. I saw one really pathetic, dreadful video for Ian's new "band,"
electrafixion and was appalled by the lack of quality. It was a song that
couldn't have been a bunnymen b-side, even in the petered-out "Lips Like
Sugar" era. And what was that dopey Oasis haircut Ian was sporting at the
Melody Maker tent at Reading?

I had a friend who managed to get backstage at a pumpkins show and the
mere mention of MBV to Billy Corgan sent him off in a glorious chatter
about how they are buddies with Kevin Shields et al and stay with them
when they're in the UK. I guess the pumpkins really dig them and Billy
even admitted to incorporating a more MBV sound on Siamese Dream.
I, for one, am so excited for 10/24 that I may explode before then.

About a month ago I posted some ramblings about what Anka Wolbert was up
to. A few people asked me to post if I learnt any more. Well, I saw my
old badminton buddy, who's been working (maybe too strong a word!) with
Anka recently, again last Thursday. He said...
Ivo (of 4AD) seems to really want Anka to do some stuff on the 4AD label.
Apparently he was trying to get Anka to work with some well known bloke
(unfortunately my pal couldn't remember who!!) on a collaboration but, also
apparently, nobody tells Anka what to do! She's unavailable at the moment
(holiday?) but my friend seems to think that something will emerge from her
in the coming months, very likely on 4AD. It's just a question of whether
it's solo or a collaboration.
Sorry it's so vague. In fact, it's all third-hand so I'd take it with a
pinch of salt too, if I were you!
Simon Hughes
P.S. Someone asked me why Anka left Xymox. I don't really know, but the
impression I get is that she just got bored. The only thing I remember my
pal saying was that it was a shame cos. she, rather than Ronny, had all the
best new songs!

Well, its not so much that its trendy, its just that everyone usually ignores me
when I bring Black Rose up. :( I still think that "the room inside" is one of
the best CDs I've bought in ages. If you had this disc, you'd appreciate the
track *instants* much more. She's got a style that has to grow on you, but once
it does, you're hooked. Unfortunately, I think they just moved to HYPErium.

Yeah...I should just shut up and learn to enjoy _Live_ and Michael Jackson. It
sure would make shopping for the CDs alot easier and cheaper. Plus I'd get to
hear my favorite song every 20 minutes on any radio station I tune to. :\
Seriously though, its just really hard to enjoy most of that crap on the radio
when my head is still reeling from the beauty of groups like the Cranes and the
durutti column. I don't like a group (at least I don't think so...) just
because they are obscure. The music has to touch something in my gut, and when
it does I become obsessed and try to force them on all my friends. Hmmm, maybe
that's why I have fewer and fewer friends... The hell with them! Who needs
friends when I've got Stina washing over me with beautiful songs like "hoplessly
yours". God, if that song doesn't make your heart ache, you're not human.
Not to say that I don't enjoy all kinds of music--for instance I hate to admit
it, but I really like that song, Waterfall(?). (Isn't that _In vogue_ who sings
that?) But most of the time, the crap that the local Houston stations force
down my throat really does nothing for me. Call me a pretensious arrogant snob,
I guess.

Hey, I wanna play!! I wanna play!!! Bel Canto is awesome!!! I've been playing
around their web pages; downloading song snippets and I'm totally in love. The
only problem with this list is that there are so many groups discussed, that
it's hard to keep them all straight. I can't believe I've missed these folks
for so long, though. (course I said the same thing about the cranes and stina.

dancey stuff, but it's depressive, soft rock music with violins. I'm
in like), Future Sound of London (whoooooosh, but much better than
"Tales of Ephedrina") & Suddenly, Tammy! (not as good as the first
album, I think) dirt cheap, all of them) and saw that Caroline Lavelle
(that TMC woman) has an album out. How is it? Should I plonk down my

I missed this post but all I can guess is that by 'we've lost Catherine
Wheel' the person is refering to the opinion that CW have gone
'rawk' and so are not quite thislisty. They definitely haven't split up and
are going to be touring with *our* Belly. They have done a video for a
song off their new album called Judy Staring at the sun featuring Tanya
Donelly on vocals. She's apparently attached to a rope in the video
pretending to fly. I can't comment on the video or the fact that CW have
gone rock. I've heard the first single (Waydown) which is quite good but
nothing like anything on Chrome. The albums been out for some time in the
US but I have to wait until next week for its UK release.
Lurking on the CW mailing list I've noticed that many people aren't too
impressed by the new album and also there's been a right old slagging-off
of Belly. I'm going to wait until my anger levels reach boiling point and
then respond .
Hope that might explain your question.
However, I could be totally wrong and we've lost means that they went for
drive in the desert and no-one can find them.

Actually, even if it's "good" music that is played every 20 minutes
there's nothing that will ruin it for me more effectively than hearing it on
the radio every half hour. My workmates used to play the radio all day and

Last night while listening to the radio I was thinking, "God, this sounds a lot
like Liz Fraser... Who in the world could this be? that singer who did that
song with Shane McGowen and the Popes? Loreena McK--? hmm. She sure sounds
like Liz Fraser."
You probably guessed by now that the song was back-announced as off of
_Twinlights_ and I just about kicked myself for not paying closer attention to
it or at least turning it up so that everyone sleeping could hear it.
Anyways, the song, "Half Gifts" struck me as very quiet, fragile, and delicate.
Liz's singing style has the soft kind of whisper like in "Mud and Dark" I
think.
As much as I heard, quite a good track. I'm getting more positive vibes about
their new stuff every day.
What is up with you kids? Usually by the time I hear a new CT release it's most
inner complexities have been dissected by everyone on the list!
Tidibit I heard when Love Spirals Downwards were on the radio last Thursday
Chrismas_ for a projekt Chistmas comp. You know the one.. "Yahoo dore, yahoo
dore..." Definately one of those moments when you think, I wish I thought of
that first. Unfortunately the comp. isn't going to be called something like
"A Very Special Goth Christmas." I forget the exact name. I'm hoping for
a Lycia cover of jingle bells or something.
I saw Suzanne and Ryan and the Trance to the Sun people at the station. Suzanne
was a riot, talking about um, dolphin sex, and getting out of their car
on the way there to attack a guy who flipped them off.
I'm somewhat unhappy that I can't make it to their show, but "all fish" should
make up for it

I think there are many folk who condier that last CW release to be a
bit too Americanized for the UKers and shoegazers. Actually CS has
played some pretty heavy riffs inthe past, just go back to Ferment, the
guitars get mighty heavy at times. Anyhow, i can't stand the Judy
staring at sun crap, tanya donnelly makes me wretch, so some are a bit
miffed about that collboration and tour of CW and Belly. enough to
make a proper UKer cringe...

Hi Mark.
Well, I might be able to help you out...there is a local "alternative" music
store here in town that had a couple of different CDs of theirs the other day.
They're an import from Italy on the _contedisc_ label. I'll check this
afternoon to see if there are any still available (they cost b/n 15 & 20
dollars) and I'll pick them up if they do. I'm sure if you don't want them
SOMEONE will.
The cat# for my favorite CD, _the room inside_ is _contedisc 168_. This is the
CD with Gordon Sharp on it. Goddammit, how did I miss that before? BR *IS*
thislisty! He composed _touched_ and _circle of shit_.
I knew if I kept at it long enough, I could eventually spark some discussion on
them. :)

PS cz, the thing about hearing a song every 20 minutes...destroyed Portishead
for me a few months back. Until I heard _Nobody Loves Me_ on TANK GIRL the
other day when I rented it and got all happy again about Portishead. :) BTW,
Tank Girl is a GREAT movie. VERY entertaining.

I know Caroline Lavelle from her collaboration with Massive
Attack on "Home of the Whale" and a mellow dancey Real World production of
"She Walked through the Fair". Beautiful tunes. I picked up her solo album
and didn't even get all the way through it once. It seemed so uninspired.
But you should judge for yourself. It is produced by William Orbit and
has a guest appearance by classical violinist Nigel Kennedy.

I think it is great but it _is_ a certain taste. It's rockin' Eno
and not so much ambient Eno. Some drummer dude from EMF (remember them!)
lays down a drum pattern on one of the tracks. What is really great
are the singles released off of it - "Ali Click" with remixes by the Grid
(you can hear five seconds of this track over the Fox Television
corporate logo if you watch TV - the Simpsons, alright?!?) and "Fractal
Zoom" with crazy bongo and spooky hush hush ambient mixes by Moby.
Eno is a taste a bit like black liquorice.

my timeStereo stuff came.
only hearing two of the 5 tapes i ordered {next order consisting of
the remaining 17 i don't have}, i'll say only a few words:
new grape is a nice warmfuzzy collektion of dara songs {who, i've
been told on 3 different ocassions, is from the band the Velveteens}.
familiar 'library girl' ambient intro music pops up in one spot...
several different new grape {sic} soda songs...the first real 'song'
on the tape is very noisey and garbled, but the tape becomes a
much more focused and coherent piece of work as it progresses. i
give it a li'l noisecricket thumbs up...people who like 'library girl'
will like this entire tape. it's not noisey in the lovesliescrushing
vein...more like the messed up medicine instrumental parts on
'shot forth self living'. in fact, dara sounds like beth thompson in
some spots....
hnia live in mexico is beautiful, as much as a live recording can be.
some ultrafine moments...nice production. warren deserves several pats
on the back for this. the instrumental segues are perfect...the songs
and loops and instrumental bits blend into each other rather well.
not seamless, but certainly not choppy and out of place. i'm especially
amused by the mexican radio dj...the first time he comes up i can't
help but think he's saying something terribly sinister. it's the way
he injects "mouth by mouth" into his dialogue...i dunno...you just
have to hear it to understand it. anyhoo, not just a live rekkid, but
a a pleasant work of art. i'm sooper happy that 'lemon ocean' is
included in the set......it just sounds so darn nice....
