Caught the STP show last nite at the House of Blues in New Orleans. Just a
few things:
1.SCHEER--Impressive...not at all the "heavy metal wanking" as someone has
said before. Her voice, IMO, is like a cross between Lesley Rankine (Ruby)
and Alison Shaw (Cranes).
2.MOJAVE3--Beautiful yet languorous and I almost fell asleep.
3.LUSH--Let's put it this way, I'm glad I caught the Spooky tour...The
highlights to me were surprisingly the songs off of Lovelife: Last Night,
Childcatcher, Heavenly Nobodies. The older songs were lacking the sound
quality that I've witnessed in the past. And the pace was harrowing. They
barely took a breath between songs, it was like "GO GO GO we gotta get outta
here!" Despite its fast pace I still felt it was a good show. I got my $13
+ $2 HouseofBlues-ripoff-service-charge worth.
AND...I think Miki smiled at me :D

eye don't understand the v23 knocking. i think he does a good job, if he
didn't the bands and ivo wouldn't use him.
personally i find his album covers quite instrumental in the history of
record covers. like ECM's album covers, you know that you are getting a
4AD release with a vaughan oliver cover.

Well I think I can totally echo these sentiments I was at the Hop and
Grape as well. Labradford were incredible, even through the
chattering classes. Its kind of unsettling watching a band like that
live. Other references in my experience is Main, but not quite as
minimal as their last output, and, during one song at least,
definitely 'Carnage Visors' by the Cure (for the populist of us).
The High Llamas were unmitigatingly dreadful. A bad Beachboys cover
band. Everything I hated in oh so many bands recently concentrated
into one band. I left.
The Cure's new single must be a joke?

I liked very much Jens' comment about bands being pushed to move forward
too fast before given the chance to fully explore the musical vein that
they start out in. I would put Ride and Stone Roses in that category as
well. I think its unfortunate that this kinda pressure and expectation is
put on bands. I also think it has a lot to do with the good old british
press who love to proclaim THE NEXT BIG THING! young bands get put on a
pedestal and its a long way down. If each subsequent record isnt as
earthshattering as the first (or if the press doesnt make it out to be
so) suddenly said band is trash. I wish there was someway around this...
On that note however, I disagree with the comments about 4AD having 'lost
its edge'. Sure there are new and exciting things going on in other areas
and other labels than what's come out of 4AD lately. But I'm not sure 4AD has
ever been in the business of being cutting edge. 4AD has always had a
unique vision, and to some extent this vision, or perhaps style is a
better word, has caught on to the point that a lot of other musicians
have followed it. But to me it kinda seems like declaring the golden age
to be over is kinda similar to problems of setting any single band on a
pedestal... its a long way down. And I'm just not convinced that 4AD has
fallen that far.

maybe I was not paying attention, but I have not seen any discussion on
this list of the new Future Sound of London. It has one of those
holographic/visual weirdness covers, and seems to be a US release, since it
was only about $14.00. From the looks of it, it might have been a kind of
singles collection. I don't know, but it did have two versions of Papua
New Guinea (sp?) on it, and the copyright date was 1996. So will those who
know about these things correct my mistaken assumptions and give
appropriate info. And if this is some ultra rare CD that got into my local
store by mistake, e-mail me and I'll go and buy it immediately. (I've been
listening to the new INSTICT "Intermix" ambient collection and it is pretty

slated at 8:30p.m., mojave three at 10:00p.m, and lush at 11:30 p.m. with
no talks of anyone else performing. my friend that actually runs ritual

Is this the rerelease of "Accelerator", their first album (1991)? I
glanced at it in a store recently (I have the original) and noted that it
had a different cover and a remix of PNG. It's a fine techno album --
"PNG" and "Calcium" are classics, and it's got a lot of other strong
stuff. Lots of fun for playing "name that sample", too: I especially like
the way they recycled the annoying synth riff from Throbbing Gristle's
"What A Day" on "Central Industrial".
>p.s. did the people from bark psychosis do anything after "hex"?
There are two singles from "Hex" that I believe came out after the album.
The A-sides are "Big Shot" and "A Street Scene". One of them (I forget
which) has b-sides "Hex" (yes, the missing title cut from the album)
which gets very noisy and a lame remix of an album track. The other --
which I will pay big bux for -- has b-side "Reserve Shot Gunman" which is
BP doing hardcore techno on 'real' instruments (not a synth in sight) and
one of their best tracks ever IMHO.
Half the band are now recording as Boymerang. They have some hard to find
12"s, and one of their tracks appears on the second Ambient Extractions
comp. My main man Gil Gershman just sent me some mix tapes that include a
Boymerang track, and it's basically jungle at heart but with lots of
sonic weirdness and complexity to it. Jungle doesn't push my buttons the
way techno does but this is the best junglish thing I've heard yet...
>and what is that guy Tim Fries-whathisname from talk-talk doing these days?
Dunno. Tim Friese-Green produced Lush's "Sweetness and Light" EP in 1990,
but I guess that was before Talk Talk's last album. Don't think he or
Mark Hollis were in the BP spin-off O-Rang. And what's Hollis doing too?

the fsol cd is a reissue of their 1992 album accelerator -- quite the
ground breaker, but it never quite made its way into the us. the cover art
is amazing, and i have been told it's typical of cleopatra/hypnotic (the us
goth/industrial/techno label that rereleased it). they've also rerleased

Caught the Atlanta show last night and had a question.
Does anyone know what it was for that the film crew was filming? It was a
good size crew with an crane and the whole bit. They filmed all the bands.
Any plans for releasing this on video? Hmmmm.
scheer were the best of the lot last night...by miles and miles.
So is Nirvana heavy-metal wanking? Ponder, ponder.
Mojave 3 are quite good live (different from the album). When Neil announced
there last tune, two Mojaters in the audience were screaming things like
"YEAH!!!!" and "ALRIGHT!!!!" to which Rachel replied with a soft-spoken, but
very pointed "Fuck You!!!!" And the crowd went wild!!!
Atta goil!
Also I got a Nico ep on Beggars Banquet called "My Funny Valentine" and
wanted to know if anyone knew if Vaughan or Chris or some such was

Scheer - Infliction
-------------------
What can I say? You guys are kind of overreacting to this. My first
instinct was to overreact as well. Frankly, I would like to bury the art
director up to his neck in the sand at low tide. Worse, I'm inclined to
suspect that this packaging is the worthy followup to A Psychopath some
of us knew was inevitable.
That said, has anyone considered that this might well have been the
next Belly album? Harshen the guitars, get a really weird drummer, throw
in some Lush and Throwing Muses staples and some Contemporary Grunge 4AD
sellout shit...sure, this could be the Belly album after next, at least.
The style is not offensive. It's not wanking. It's considerably less
charming than anything the label has released since Red Heaven, sure. I'm
not going to apologize for this record, but it's not wanking and it's not
horrible. It's okay, and there are some okay songs here, mainly the less
plugged-in ditties...although some of them do border on lousy and a few
of the better songs are the "wanking" songs.
Of course, none of what I've said here should not be taken to mean that
I will ever listen to this album again.
Sting - Mercury Falling
-----------------------
What the hell, right? Come on, admit it, you almost bought it too.
Sting makes a small comeback. Here we have a more subdued and classier
delivery than the last two albums offered. A lot of nice songs, less jazz
pomp, some really pretty melodies and chord changes and decorations and
effective lyrics...and of course a bit of Sting making an ass of himself.
But just a little. It's okay, it really is, you can like Sting. Go ahead.
Blame it on me. I made you. :)
Orbital - The Box
-----------------
Ladies and gentlemen, Orbital have returned to the building...
Christ, I thought for certain we'd lost them. Snivilisation was, sure,
as I said before, a failed but noble experiment, or something, but you
couldn't really listen to the last half of it. Strip away my diplomatic
words and it was borderline awful. Last Summer's "Times Fly" single was
perhaps worse; I hated it enough that I didn't bother to figure that out.
But THIS...this is very, very good. And there is nothing else like it out
there.
What we have is a lot of very groovy beats and harsh buzzy shit laid
over some hypnotically cool reverberating piano lines. They are
mechanical and organic at the same time, the way Orbital sometimes do
with their drum tracks (the cymbals on Forever come to mind first). On
the second track you have this harpsichord sound that enters in, and the
way everything plays off the other is fantastic. I will again make the
reference to Forever, which may be one of the reasons I hate
Snivilisation but which nevertheless is their best song to date. This
stuff all mixes together and just when you think it's going to be too
silly it gets all cool again, everything dances around itself and all
this elusive crap happens in the back. You can't really tell what the
hell is going on, probably, but it's wonderful.
And best of all, it's creepy. Not in that artsy sort of way I talk
about Modula Green and Current 93, but in the sense that the haunted house
in Super Mario World is creepy, ok? And that's essential too, no?
Third song is a bit electroey or something, your classic Orbital romp,
and the last of the four songs is much like the first but with some
vocals I don't get into but which are definitely appropriate and pretty
cool. In fact, these are apparently four versions of the same song, and
in three of the versions you can detect it. Maybe in all four. The second
song blows me away too much to say.
Anyway, our prodigal bleepers are back.
More later on. Nearly God and The Thirteenth and that shitty new Coil
thing. Right now I have to go pay the record store guy. :p

I've been meaning to review Tortoise's "Millions Now Living Will Never
Die" so here goes...
The 21-minute "Djed" is great stuff, an epic that starts with squelchy
AFX-style percussion noises and moves through Stereolab/Neu-style drone,
tweaky dub, gamelan and a mix of other styles. Lots of great Moog sounds
throughout, and classic dub moments where a particular noise suddenly
flares up, loops and takes over everything else. The only weak point of
this track is the dated-sounding electric piano solo atop the Stereolabby
section.
The other tracks are a mixed bag. Several go into semi-funky jams in
weird time signatures. Call me an old fart, but these remind me
unpleasantly of the weaker side of '70s prog-rock. One thing I keep
noticing in several tracks is that Tortoise are _excellent_ at creating
interestingly fucked-up noises and jams, but are weak at actual melody
lines.
"Dear Grandma and Grandpa" is mostly the former, and it's very nice even
if it doesn't really go anywhere.
"Along the Banks Of Rivers" has what's actually a fairly nice guitar
lead, even if it reminds me somewhat of slow '50s instrumental rock
(think "Spooky".) It's got a jazzy Bark Psychosis kind of sound to it.
>From the hype I'd been expecting more obviously Stereolab-like stuff; all
there is of that is a few minutes in "Djed". There's lots of antique
synth action but Tortoise do a lot more with it than the novelty
squiggles that Stereolab use. One major reference point for me is Eno's
early work -- a few of the tracks here remind me a lot of "Another Green
World".
I don't know if I can really recommend the album wholeheartedly. I like
"Djed" a lot, but most of the rest is not living up to its potential. See
if you can find it used, or listen to it before you buy.

it is a reissue of their first full length, i picked it up a little
while ago, and though i can't say i like it as much as any other FSOL,
it's not that bad.... it's dancey but no where near as great as "tales
of ephadrina"
hope i helpped.

this pissed me off so much- i saw one of the assholes who screamed that and i
wanted to wack him so badly. people are so fucking rude. overall the croud
at masquerade was pretty anti-mojave. I had a "stevie wonder" lipsync'er in
front of me lipsyncing to every lush song and moving his head around like
stevie. cool.

I should have mentioned this with my previous post but forgot. I caught the
show at the HoB in New Orleans and was there early enough, or at least I
thought, to get a free tape. Well, I never got one or saw anyone handing
them out, though other people did have them, so I was a bit
saddened...UNTIL...I happened upon an entire display of them in Tower
Records, just there for the taking. So I got a couple. Oh lucky day!
