the first one is to plug bowery electric's s/t lp. bought it last weekend,
and it's brilliant.
let it be in minneapolis has a large stock of slowdive eps (on vinyl). the
ones i saw were slowdive, morningrise, 5ep, in mind remixes. they also had
copies of ymmr and fmwyk by mbv. you minneapolis listies may know this, but
just in case not, i thought i'd share.
any of you who are expecting cds/tapes/checks/etc from me, most of 'em will
be on their way tomorrow. they've been ready for quite sometime, but when
i'm offline, i (wrongly) neglect my internet pals.
ok, so that was three things. nobody's perfect.

Hey,
I'm considering buying Bleak's "Vane" with my next Projekt mail
order, when lovesliescrushing's "Xuvetyn" comes out, and I'm wondering if
anyone can tell me about it. I gathered that einexile doesn't like it,
and I wouldn't mind knowing exactly why, but does anyone else have input
about it? I really like Lycia a lot (although unbelievably, I have yet to
buy _The Burning Circle..._, but soon will), and the Darkwave catalog
description of Bleak being more the intense, "A Brief Glimpse" side of Lycia
sounds pretty damn good to me.

einexile the meek pondered:
>If armed men appeared at your doorstep with a court order that your name

Possible alternatives
mojave u.k.
the london mojave
the english mojave beat
mo-HA-vee (sounds ok, but looks lousy in print)
slowdive, part deux
etc..
OK, now here's a question, why 3? Is it one better than two? Is it the
number of people in the band? Is there a Mojave 2 somewhere?

Hi -
Just came back from NYC - saw a better-than-ever Moonshake (without Moose's
drummer, but with Katherine "Stereolab(tm) One-Note Organ Method" Gifford.
Woo-hoo!)
An absolutely riveting show with nary a guitar in sight! You have to hear
(see?) the series of effects used on the saxophone! Dave Callahan was in fine
form as well, hypnotic and mesmerizing with his gritty innercity-blues rants
- like a snake-charmer who knows that has total control over his serpentine
friend. The new album should be coming out on C/Z Records in April. Look for
a single, "Cranes", sometime soon. The opening band, Very Pleasant Neighbor,
were worth keeping an eye on as well:quality moody noise pop in an MBV/Helium
vein.
Found a few rare items that might be of list interest. Anyone looking for
these? :
>A.C. TEMPLE (Chris "Spoonfed Hybrid" Trout's band)
Blowtorch(including "Songs of Praise" mini-LP) CD FU6 UK 1988
Sourpuss CD BlastFirst UK 45 1989
>BLEACH - compilation (two EPs... "Eclipse" & "Snag") - Artlos/Way Cool GER
RAT 012 CD
(dipping/seeing/bethesda/burning/wipe it away/decadence/crimson 'o')
>CHIMERA - Ellis Bleeds EP (ellis bleeds/push/slow burn(reprise)) - Flute 03
CD 1993

'D' is indeed a code for DAT and not for DCC. 4AD never issued a DCC, at
least not in the UK, maybe in Japan(??).
The reason they use a 'D' in the catalogue and not 'DAT' is a very practical
one I think: DAT wouldn't in that little circle they use to indicate the
formats! By the way, the 'D' can't be found in the pricelist. I suppose they
are free :)
And yes, the 'Blue Bell Knoll' LP initially was released in a gatefold
sleeve. Cat.# CAD 807. No extra 'D's or whatever.

It's possible the moniker was chosen off the cuff, and it's also possible
it was chosen to generate amusing conversations like this one. Sort of
like the time James Joyce was asked why he made Finnegan's Wake so

for the next 300 years."

I was looking through the 4AD catalogue (valid to June 1994) and I saw
something
that sorta confused me. I'm sure this query will make me look a tad
retarded,
because
I'm sure the answer is obvious. Blue Bell Knoll is listed as having 4
formats
viz, CD,
MC , LP and D. What is this D? It is the only offering in the whole
catalogue
having this format.
Put me out of my misery....

The Slowdive & Mojave 3 mailing list
After noticing that there were a lot of people looking for a Slowdive
mailing list, I've been thinking of starting one for a while, and
well, here it is, including Mojave 3, for obvious reasons. :-)
The Slowdive & Mojave 3 mailing list was made to cater for the
discussions about the (no longer active) Creation band Slowdive
and the (active) 4AD band Mojave 3 from the UK, as well as being
a distribution list for the Internet Slowdive and Mojave 3
Discographies.
To subscribe to the Live version of the list, e-mail:
[email protected], with the subject "Subscribe".
Digests will be made, not in a daily manner, but rather when the
size of collected messages from the live list reach about 40-45k.
Please note that the digests will not include the Discographies,
due to the large size of them.
To subscribe to the Digest version of the list, e-mail:

Hope to see you on the list!

I just received the Amercian promo for "A Girl Like You" (thanks Mike).
It clearly states that the song is from the upcoming "Queer" LP. I have the UK
version of this LP (limited edition with the Mama and Sucker 12"s). It doesn't
have A girl like you on it. Did this appear on the American edition, or did 4Ad
change their minds for all editions?

Oh but Andrew, you must know you kicking against general public opinion if
you don't like "Destroy the Heart". I reckon it might come top in a poll
of people's favorite HoL tunes (certainly topped Peel's festive fifty one
year).
One of my best ever gig going experiences was HoL doing "Love in a Car" at,
I think, the Kilburn National. Absolutely wonderful. For a short while,
we were blessed with two great guitarists in Terry Bickers and John Squire.
Look what's happened to them now.

really liking a few songs and was totally amazed. A superb show.

For what it's worth (speaking of formats) I saw that the recent (Fontana)
EPs (Twinlights & Otherness) are available on DCC in Germany. They're

To my understanding, "A Girl Like You" was recorded after the UK release of
Queer, and seeing that they wouldn't have another full-length releasefor
quite some time, TWP decided to release it as a CD single in the Uk along
with the full-length US release which didn't come for sometime...perhaps
months... after the UK release of Queer. As was "Angel" and "Sucker m.f.",
which is pretty kewl. (i.e. it ROX!)

Anyone out there seen Mr Black playing live at all recently. I keep
reading mixed reviews of the new recorded stuff, but I really want to
know what he sounds like live. I haven't seen him since the Pixies
last UK tour. Whatever your comments I have my ticket for the 31 jan
for Manchester.
Further to my note regarding the gig the local band Crushed were to
do last Friday just to report that it was a roaring success. PJ
Bells, now called Repblic[a] and with its door round the back, were
obviously impressed as Mr Bell asked them back after the sound check.
So anyone in the Manchester area is interested keep your eyes open as
they will be playing again with in a month or two at Republic[a] and
probably in March at the Roadhouse if Lobe get them a support or not.
And finally thanks to e for the birthday greetings - at least someone
out there cares!

Supposedly from the Steve Martin film "The Man With Two Brains". That's
the answer that came up when this was asked before, but I can't confirm
as I haven't seen the film.
I think I should add stuff about "Queer" to the FAQ. Thanks for the
summary!
"Sucker MF" is an excellent remix by the way, much harder than the
original, and worth hunting down for UK TWP fans. And speaking of
remixes, I haven't heard much mention of the "Time" EP, which contains
three techno remixes of "A Question Of Time", done by the band, that are
just fabulous. As a great in-joke the first one makes good use of the
clock chime from Pink Floyd's "Time" (from "Dark Side Of the Moon".)

Is this the same version that's on the first _Volume_ compilation? I believe
it is, but my copy of V1 is about 500 miles away from me at the moment.

I saw Frank last February at the Underground in Santa Barbara.
The playing is very energetic and the volume loud, much more so than on the
albums (the volume, that is). He has a kind of contempt for the audience
that you might notice. For instance, when he first took the stage at the
show I was at, he walked right up to the mic and started mumbling
nonsense, and everyone cheered as if he were really saying something.
Another funny thing is, the "encore" consisted of only one song (Hostess
With The Mostest), then he decided that was all he was going to do, and
stalked offstage, drawing vilification from the crowd. He puts on a good
show, though.

The movie is, of course, "The Man with Two Brains" (I
believe there's a thank-you in the credits). Very cool
sample, and the pale imitation of the US-version samples (I
think done by the band) are what made me trade in my
original US copy for a Canadian (same as UK).

Huite,
Ik ben je adres kwijt dus doe ik het zo maar even. Ik heb een vraag over een
Wim Mertens promo CD, en aangezien hij op Crepuscule zit en jullie dat label
ook distribueren in Nederland, kun je me misschien verder helpen (of mooier
nog eraan helpen). Ik heb Joelle Dagry van Crepuscule in Brussel gebeld,
maar die bleek niets van deze promo te weten. Misschien is het meer een PIAS
promotie 'device' en niet zozeer een Crepuscule CD.
Het gaat om een promo CD voor 'Gave van Niets', de 10-CD set die november
vorig jaar is gereleased. Nu heb ik deze info alleen van via via maar er
schijnt een promo CD the zijn (TWI 1003P ??) met daarop excerpts van die 10
CD's. Ik neem aan dat hij is gemaakt omdat het een beetje kostbaar wordt om
10 CDsets naar recensenten ed. te zenden. Ik weet niet, ik gok maar.
In ieder geval: weet jij iets van deze CD? En, als jullie er nog 1 hebben
rondzwerven, zou ik daar dan voor in aanmerking kunnen komen? Eventuele
kosten vergoed ik, dat spreekt van zelf.
Bij voorbaat dank voor je hulp.

Syndicated columnist Dave Barry says that "those weird string of letters

advertisements, TV shows, etc., the ones that look like

A few months back I recall mention of the Lilys' essential album "In The
Presence Of Nothing" being out of print. I was just checking Parasol's
web page and their December 16th update claims they have it back in
stock. You can reach them at:
or
for the update itself. The description reads:
Lilys In The Presence Of Nothing PS, US Beautiful release from 1992
back in stock. MBV fans who haven't heard this one should check it out.
Slumberland-20 CD 14.25
Buy buy buy! A shoegazer classic, much in the MBV vein but with its own
distinct sound.

I saw this disc used once in Dallas, and the b-sides are the same as those on
the Dedicated version of the EP: "Casa Blanca", "Sixth of May" (same as on
_Wings_of_Joy_), and "Dreamless". "Casa Blanca" is a great song, one of my
favorites by them. "Dreamless" is one of their more atonal pieces, but still
pretty good.

I read a none-too-enthusiastic live review that described them as HoL gone
AOR (but then the British music press were pretty down on Chadwick and co
towards the end anyway). No releases as far as I know.

Nice, yet occasionally nicely insane (as on "Hope" and "Touch Me")

"Safe" later turned up on "A Spy...", btw

hello,
i've been desperately looking for a cd by harmony rockets. for those that did
not know and may be interested, harmony rockets and mercury rev are the same
band. they released their only disc a few months ago, and for some reason it
has already been deleted. can anyone help me find two copies of this disc?
i'll send cash or trade. one thing that may be of interest to cranes fans is a
promotional only, limited to 2000 copies cd single for 'tomorrow's tears'.
i had never seen this before, but a guy at their label, bmg, sent it to me a
few months back. he said it was fairly rare. i can't remember the b-sides,
but there are three of them and an interview. i'm happy to part with it for a
copy of the harmony rockets.
thanks,
alan

Anyone know what happened to the dreampop mailing list?
The one hosted by netcom.com?
I'm willing to take it over, and if I'm not mistaken
the list owner is subbed to 4AD as well....
If you are or you know the list owner,
send me private email okay?
I searched some Web mailing list databases
but came up dry on who the owner/admin is....
Thanks,

Answer - yes to both questions. If you tick CDs only, that's precisely what
you'll get. If you tick CDs preferred, you will get that + any vinyl releases
not issued on CD (eg the rumoured series of ltd edition 10" eps)
