Subject: The Amps


"One pound 99", I thought, "I haven't seen a 4AD release that cheap for
ages".  The Amps single has only got three songs on it, and weighs in at
a shade under six minutes in total.  I wouldn't mind if it contained
three short bursts of superb punk rock heaven, but what it actually
contains is three short bursts of amateurish punk rock hell.  If I
didn't know Kim Deal's history I'd say that Ivo probably signed the Amps
in a fit of madness after seeing them play in a bar somewhere - in fact
I think they would get bottled off in most bars, on this evidence.
Awful, awful stuff.  "Tipp City", "Like a Briar" (a cover), and the demo
which was on the FTWW sampler, if anyone cares.  Did she really write
"Gigantic"?

Subject: Re: Amps/Scheer


I listened to both these again yesterday and I still maintain they suck.

I agree Mr. Norman about how bad The Amps are. If IWR is signing bands
like these surely he could sign my band. It seems if Ms. Deal picked her
three favourite chords, had a few beers with some friends, had a jam,
sent a tape to Ivo and got a record contract. There's just no content in
the songs. I bet it took V23 longer to do the artwork than it did to record.

 As for Scheer, Skunk Anansie seem to be doing the same sort of
thing - heavy rock with a female singer - but better. Except Scheer have got
Harriet 'Sunday' on vocals.

The Guernica label offshoot would be a more appropriate means to release
these. Give them a one record deal and wait and see if there's any
interest in them.

So Red House Painters have now left 4ad. So how long before the other
main-stays of the label will go - we've lost TWP, Frank Black, Cocteaus a
few years back. Brendan Perry's solo stuff was rejected, tarnation have
split already. Who's next, Belly? Lush?

PS If I've got a photograph ALBUM with a collection of photos taken over
many years, of many different places, subjects then this isn't really an
album its merely a collection of photographs according to  you.

A while back somebody posted Lisa's explanation for the Mirror Pool
(why, who etc.). On reading this she mentioned that her and Mr Perry had
released eight albums together. A quick glance through the releases means
that she counts "A passage in Time" as an album (which only had two new songs).

I am going to send her a copy of the Pink Opague and see it she calls it
an album or not. And Nick Cave will receive "Hits" and be asked for his
opinion. Then this issue will be solved. And there will be world peace. And pigs

Possibly she meant Garden of the Arcane Delights?

1) DCD  2) Within the realm... 3) Spleen.. 4)Serpent's 5) Aeion 6)Toward the wit
in
7) Into the labyrynth 8) A passage in time
and 4/10 for 9)Garden of Arcane..

So if she counts Garden as an album, we can forgive her for not counting A Passa
e..
But lashes for the Garden misclassification. If she realises that Garden is an E
 then
she had to be calling a Passage an album. Hence lashes for that. Or like e says,
she can't
count - lashes to the Australian? education system.

well, i actually liked her performance, though i must agree it did not differ

so, i'm listening to CW Ferment and Chrome.  I really don't understand
why people are saying CW has gone grunge...a semantic arguement i fear.
 Listen to those releases again, some pretty hard bass lines, agressive
guitar, alternate passages between mellow and brain blowing.  The only
aspect ofshoegazing, are the vocals at times (IMNSHO).  I hope the
"grunge" label is only grabbing for words which are difficult at times
to find when describing music--ask any reviewer.  Grunge was coined to
describe Nirvana and the Seattle scene, much to their dismay actually.
It is yet another marketing term like alternative has become.
So, enlighten me, I want the UK perspective on this because as usual, I
am confused.

Personally, I hate the '3'. I think I would have forgiven them had they
chosen to use the dreaded "UK" suffix (the other "mojave" is American,
right?) because that's easier to ignore.  Or they could even have
chosen "THE Mojave" (as in "THE Verve"), and I could have ignored the
'THE', just like I did with Verve. Not to mention that 'Mojave UK' and
'The Mojave' are, to me, more aesthetically pleasing to look at than
'Mojave 3'.

At any rate, it doesn't matter. The album is absolutely amazing, and
I can't stop listening to it. "Love Songs On The Radio", "Tomorrow's
Taken", and "Where Is The Love", and "Pictures" are gorgeous...

I think you're missing the point.  The point is that a *compilation*, even
if it has a few remixed versions and even a few more songs will never be an
album.  If an author releases a book that is a compilation of the best
stories and exerpts from previous novels does this new book count as another
novel?  No.  Otherwise i could just say that the boxed set is my favorite
album.  Someone tried to use subtlety and humor to point this out, others
have come right out and said it but why are you so reluctant to admit that
this is NOT an album?  It may be your favorite CT release but it is NOT what
is commonly referred to as an "album".

>>we've lost TWP, Frank Black, Cocteaus a
few years back. Brendan Perry's solo stuff was rejected, tarnation have
split already. Who's next, Belly? Lush?<<

For the record, UVS, RHP, Shallow, etc., etc. are all gone.

Surely Brendan Perry's solo stuff or the new RHP couldn't have been worse
than that Amps single or even Lisa Gerrard's LP (uninspired). His acoustic
tunes on "Toward the Within" alone are better than that album.

Why did 4AD let the Spoonfeds get away (brilliance).

And the story on Frank Black, TWP, and Brendan Perry? Anyone?

Also, in reference to the Guernica thing. That label isn't a farm label, but
a label releasing music in the U.K. only that is licensed elsewhere in the
world (with the exception of Insides). Releases are usually one-offs (again,
with the exception of Insides).

4AD still, to my knowledge, still operates within the no-contract framework
with most of its "signings". They are all, with the exception of maybe Lush,
DCD, Muses and Belly free to leave at anytime.

Still, v23 is doing some of its most inspired work in years despite the music
its representing.

Still, I hope this storm will pass.

I like the solution Luna used - a little "2" superscripted, so I was
never quite sure whether they were Luna or "Luna squared".  Eventually
they bought the rights to the name from the other Luna.  Mojave have
problems with Germans, don't they?  What about "Die Mojave Gruppe"?
The "UK" suffix would look awfully odd to British people - all these
groups who are forced to append "London" or "UK" to their names end up
sounding like mod bands with dodgy racial politics.  A 3 was good
enough for the Spacemen.  I would have thought the simplest solution
was a complete name change, though - it's not as if they have a
reputation, other than with the Slowdivomaniacs on the net, and their
only release so far is one track on a couple of compilations.

Then again, it's entirely possible that they could mean mojave CUBED:)  And
wasn't Luna once known as Luna2 (as in the lunapark album)?  We all still
call them Luna, though.  My favorite would be The British London Mojave 3

  Well, this is my opinion.  I've worked in record stores for over three
years now, and I, along with all the people I've worked with, have always
called greatest hits and best of, and other compilations, "albums".  We
may call it a compilation album, but we still call it an album.  An album
is a reference to the physical object the music is on, whether it be
vinyl or cd.  Listen to MTV, even they will call it an album (like MTV is
some great reference source, but my point is that everybody calls the
things albums).  What are we supposed to call them, "releases"?  I'll
stick to calling them albums, thank you.  And Pink Opaque is still the
best album CT ever did.

Subject: Seeking Big Hat and Tel Basta


I've belatedly become a fan of these two bands, having acquired Big Hat's
second album, "Selena at My Window", and Tel Basta's second, entitled
"Laid Up in Lavender".  Both bands occupy a parallel universe where
post-Siouxsie vocals, multiinstrumentalist/guitarists, amplified
violin/viola, and non-trap drum percussionists, playing lush arabesques
have become the "normal" lineup.

Unfortunately, with the exception of these two releases, their other work
appears to be out-of-print, unavailable locally, on the net, or by
mail-order.  If anyone out there can help me find copies of the following
releases, I'd be most appreciative:

Big Hat - Shimmer
          Inamorata
          Taqueria del Muerte

Tel Basta - Tel Basta (debut)

I can offer tape copies of an fairly extensive thislisty library or a
little money to compensate you for your troubles...Thanks.

Subject: Elysium tour underway


The Elysium / Aurora Borealis tour is in full swing. After
three shows in Vegas, Mesa, and Tucson, band spirits are
the highest they've ever been. We'll see if they're still
having a good time after the 9 hour trip from El Paso to
San Antonio :) [And for those in New Mexico, they did try
to book a show, but nothing came through. They are however giving
this state a full-band salute at this moment somewhere on I-10
between Tucson and El Paso. Next time, definitely!]

The Mesa show was one of the best I have ever seen.
After seeing The Aurora Borealis several times now, I've really
warmed up to their songs: fast, romping, full of energy
and extremely well written. Little bits of XTC and Felt are
strewn about along with great guy vocals, fairly intense
drumming, funky bass, and two guitars. They have a self-released
CD they're selling on the tour.

Elysium. Besides being great band (ether-bliss to noisy with a
fine sense of subtlety) they're wonderful people. Say hi to them
at one of their shows. You probably already know what they sound like
from my ba-zillion posts about them, so check with me privately or
on my Web Page for more details. They have lots of CDs cluttering
up their tour vans that we'd all love to move...

Alison's Halo (Mesa show only-- they're not touring at the moment)
MY GOD! Every time I see them, they just completely blow me away
as if I'm seeing them for the first time. I've said it before and
I'll say it once again: Alison's Halo is the best dreampop band
on the PLANET. They really know how to use quiet vs. all-out-noisy
(aka. "float/slam" for you Dewdrops readers), and when they get into
one of their noisy refrains as in "Calendar" or "Leech" it's nothing
short of an ecstacy of dreamy, swirling excess. They played a bunch of
new songs, showing a branching out of style and sound. When they
release their debut album (whenever that is) it's going to be the
landmark release in this genre for years to come.

Here is the rest of the tour for Elysium and Aurora Borealis:

Tue.Oct.10th - El Paso @ Saso's Lounge - 9565 Dyer
Wed.Oct.11th - San Antonio @ Coffee Gallery - 203 E. Commerce
Thur.Oct.12th - Austin @ TBA
Fri.Oct.13th - Austin @ Ruta Maya - 218 West 4th Street
Sat.Oct.14th - Tulsa @ the Xenophon - 20 E. Brady
Sun.Oct.15th - off
Mon.Oct.16th - Ft. Collins @ Tony's
Tues.Oct.17th - Denver @ Cricket on the Hill - 1209 E. 13th Street
Wed.Oct.18th - Provo @ The Holly Cow (to be confirmed)
Thurs.Oct.19th - Salt Lake City - TBA
Fri.Oct.20th - Off

the american souvlaki is an album.  that's why the tracks on the end are
called "bonus tracks," to distinguish them from the album proper.

and i won't elaborate on the clan of xymox cd with the two extra remixes.

--------------------------

If it was ANYONE, it would have been either the band or Ivo. Maybe
back in 1982 or maybe early 1983 the band would have let someone else
do it, but I doubt anyone but THEY would have remixed "Wax and Wane"
in 1985. By that time, the band were pretty much in control of most
of what they did in the studio.  Ivo could have done it though, since
he was co-producer when "Wax and Wane" was originally recorded.

on The Pink Opaque sounds fuller and more clear than the original?

Sorry...I wasn't arguing with the fact that The Pink Opaque is anything
more than a compilation and NOT a new body of work and therefore does
not qualify as an album, per se. I agree with that TOTALLY and always
HAVE felt that way.  All I was saying was that, in response to whomever

and (I'm willing to BET) "Aikea-Guinea" were remixed for The Pink Opaque,
which would indicate NEW WORK to a certain extent.  That's ALL I

with how "Peppermint Pig" turned out that he vowed never again
to let anyone else produce or mix their songs. Maybe this

The The WWW page you can find out why.

As you may have seen from Brandon, the pop event of the
year is happening in Phoenix this weekend, starting Friday
night. E-mail bcapps@primenet.com for more details.

I will be driving there, leaving LA sometime Friday morning,
and returning Sunday morning/aternoon. I'd be glad to take
up to 3 other people with me on the trip, so contact me ASAP
if you'd like to come.

Let's make it a trip to remember!

|     Brant Nelson | 1817 Corinth Ave. #10 | open your eyes
| Dewdrops Records | LA, CA 90025-5567     | to northern skies
| Uncommon music that deserves to be heard |
| http://www.astro.ucla.edu/students/nelson/dewdrops.html

ps. as a bonus, the route along I-10 includes some of the
places involved in the Scenic album 'Incident At Cima',
plus you just can't beat the cactus-filled scenery.

I was at discorama at w4st and picked up a promo copy of air miami's me
me me.  I'm enjoying it, but if anyone was getting tired of their copy of
13yi (just kidding)...

But for all you other full price paying fools, they also had the following...

        SNIFF.....SNIFF....All i wanted to know was what people's favorite
CT album was. Maybe, for some people it's pink opaque. That's their own
perogative.
I didn't expect to start a flame war. Everybody can like what they like. No
prob. Boy, if CT heard about this...they would crack up!
