the comparison of scheer to belly and the muses is actually kinda valid. i
talked to audrey of scheer (who is totally dynamic) before the austin show
and she said some of the 4ad bands she liked included the muses(kristin), belly
and liz frazier. regardless of style preference, i don't think anyone can
deny that scheer is a Solid band. they're really in tune with each other up on
stage (even when the lead guitarist's amp goes out for half a song.:) )
although pushing my limit for hard edge influence the melodies still stick in
my head, and don't drive my mad. :)
as a side note, i haven't had any problems when talking to the people at 4ad
LA, although i'm sure with the recent personnel changes it's been kinda hectic.

Hello, listies. Just subscribed to the list, so be nice to me.
Uh, I saw STP in Portland a couple weeks ago, and it was interesting for me,
to say the least. Here's a quick and harmless anecdote to brighten your
day (or night)...
To preface, you should know that I listen to quite a
bit of music, but lush come in number one. It's difficult to explain
how their early stuff has affected me... Split is alright, and ofcourse I
think Lovelife isn't out of this world, but whateryagonnado? They're lush!
Anyway, the day of their concert I heard from a friend at the last minute
that all the bands (lush, most importantly) were to appear at a downtown
record store to sign
stuff. I was 2 1/2 hours away, but I rushed up and got there in time. I
even had some time to pick up two boquets of roses (one yellow for Emma,
and one, what else, red for Miki). So I chatted with them briefly, had
them sign a bunch of CD covers (they drew faces on my lemons!), presented
the flowers, got a snapshot of me and the band.... looking back it's a
blur ofcourse. Afterwards, I realized that in my mad frenzy to get there, I
had left 3 tickets (for me and two friends) at home!! One friend told me
I should ask Miki if she could get us on the guest list because she was
browsing the store. But I simply didn't have the balls. I was ready to
drive all the way home and back (hey - I was desperate), but outside I
saw Chris (the drummer) and said what the hell. So I asked him and he was
nice about it, gave him our names and that was that. That night we all
got into the show with no problem. So, for me atleast, it was quite
thrilling to be on the guest list of my favorite band.
As far as the show is concerned, I think Scheer are nice in some ways,
but they just throw in too many butt-rock riffs. Get rid of the drummer!
Mojave 3 were great, I think. It would be nice to see them in a sit down
venue, where you could sip a drink... (Needless to say, I adore Slowdive
a helluva lot more, but that's a different story). People keep saying how
they would fall asleep to them, but I think that's a totally good thing.
I've already drifted into la la land on a couple lazy afternoons, and
it's a great feeling.
For lush, I was way in the very front. For the first three songs, the
crowd was relatively calm, which I thought was great. But out of nowhere
the crowd surfers and slam dancers (or whatever they are) started
their thing, and from then on people were absolutely crushed. I've
never been so physically assaulted like that before ('course, I try to
stay away from "pits"). So I spent most of my time dodging people above
and not being able to listen to the music. But maybe it was worth it - to
be that close...
Hope you didn't "fall asleep"
Ciao............(man that song sucks)

I read a post a few days ago on the list that someone saw Miki with
a boyfriend. That someone was a female and asked Miki for her
autograph. Anyway what did the guy look like?
White/Black/whatever
Hair color
was he "buff" (muscles)
glasses/Eyecolor
ugly/good looking
Paint me a picture!
I saw the scheer video for "I wish you were dead" on 120 minutes and
have to say it's not as bad everone makes them out to be. Free your
minds people, metal can be good if not done by some long haired racist
or homophobe i.e. Axel Rose, S. Bach or whoever else. I like the
singers hair:) and what's so bad about the drummer? I say get rid of
that fat bald bass player (the way he jumps around he could kill
someone!). Replace him with a nerdy redhead from So. Cal (like me)
While you're at it, get some dancing lessons from Emma Anderson from
Lush (she doesn't move, get it?). Let's face it, Irish people can't

Haven't you heard? Through the modern miracle of online communications,
it is possible for me to distribute my decrees over phone lines rather
than by way of the postal service. Some on this list have been foolish
enough to mistake this for a common twentieth century "punk" writing

Jens, is it possible, in your humble opinion, that we might put this
message into the FAQ as a kind of generic form letter? It would save much
time for the subscribers here who have "control issues". Perhaps a copy
could be mailed out automatically by the list software every time I post
a review. I know others here must feel the same way as David but lack the
moral courage to speak.

Nefilim - Zoon
--------------
What can I say? Carl McCoy is an artist. He needs time. He has to simmer
in his juices for a while, decompose some, and learn to enjoy the smell.
And to think I figured all that out just from the artwork! I won't rag on
it too hard because it's clear a lot of work was put in, but it's bad.
it's amateurish and unoriginal, there's one of those red Star Wars guys
on the cover saying "shhh", there are some pictures that look like they
belong in Heavy Metal, the kind of airbrushing specialized in by folks
who work at comics shops and don't intend to ever quit.
That sort of thing, basically. If you're wondering why in the hell am I
reading about The Nefilim on the 4AD list, there used to be quite a few
fans of Fields of the Nephilim here. I think most have either left the
internet entirely or else joined The Sisters of Mercy, but I have to tell
*someone* about this, and the people on the Neffs list are crazy.
Fields of the Nephilim, for those who never heard them, were goff, but
they were classy. They showed restraint at the right times but didn't lack
balls. They were one of the few bands in the genre that didn't sound
exactly like someone else, and you--yes YOU david!--could depend on them
to treat what they were doing with respect for the material. They worked
hard, they didn't fuck around, I personally don't think they were stupid.
A lot of people did, but those people were wrong.
They aren't anymore. Zoon is an awful speed metal album that lacks any
of the subtlety or passion that made Fields of the Nephilim what they
were. I rather dislike Rubicon (the other band resulting from the split)
but I can hardly accuse them of this. With the exception of a short and
inept noise piece that closes this album, every single song here is full
of the traditional thrash guitar and thumping bass drum. It's not so much
that the record is full of conventions or even that they are conventions
I hate, but it's not even done right. When the track Chaocracy appeared
on a Beggars sampler a few years back, it was speed metal but it had some
design to it, it had direction, it kind of rocked, it was kind of sexy.
If Chaocracy was sexy, then Zoon is a mutilated cow's stomach. The single
saving grace of this album is the single Penetration, which is like all
the others and which has plenty of flaws, but which works. It is good
sped metal.
So for any who might have entertained thoughts of buying this record
blind out of loyalty or whatever, give it a serious listen first. it
really eats it. And as for the notion that it is Carl's Baby, it is not.
He shares writing credit on almost all of the album, so that's about as
believable as Beggars' pronouncement that the album "is not speed metal".
Enough of this. You knew it was coming.
The Cure - The 13th
-------------------
You are getting sleepy. You love Pepsi. Tomorrow you will go down the the
office of elections and register as a Republican. Oh yes, and hating The
Cure has lost its zing. Effective immediately you are to adore them
again.
I don't know if everyone's heard the title track already or what. It's
been at radio stations for at least two weeks but no one bothers to play
it ever. Be aware when I say I love it that you are dealing with someone
who placed Wish at or near the top of his best-of-92 list. This is not a
sad or tormented Cure song; it might have appeared in some or other form
on The Head on the Door or The Top or Three Imaginary Boys. While I am
most fond of what has come to be accepted as the Cure Style, I am
probably most impressed by the originality of the above mentioned albums,
and that's the value I see in The 13th. It doesn't sound like much of
anything else, but it's not too quirky. At the same time it is very odd,
full of kooky rhythms and brass. This might easily have been irritating,
but is not here because of the song's intoxicated mood and because all
style aside it is a gorgeous song, sporting Robert Smith's best vocal
melody since Fascination Street and Prayers for Rain, some very cool
mellow guitar shit, nice percussion and piano decorations. It might have
been offensive but it is treated very carefully and cooly and I dig it.
Adonais is probably the least impressive of the four songs on the US
releases of these singles. (I don't know how many show up on the British
ones.) It's a classic "Cure B-Side" in that it isn't a terribly well
written song, it sounds a little typical, it's a little stilted in terms
of the strings and the guitar riffs. It doesn't blow me away but it beats
the hell out of Dredd Song. I had expected to hear so much of Dredd Song
here that Adonais was a great relief and still is. But there is nothing
that shitty on these singles.
Ocean sounds quite a bit like the sadder songs off of Wish. Trust or To
Wish Impossible Things. The chorus here is a bit odd for them and it's a
little mushy, but as with most of Wish, if you don't have a peeve for
mushy Cure they often manage to connect where others would not. Overall
it's a good song, there is some nice music going on here, the guitar's
not real exciting but the vocal harmonies are super.
And now we are to It Used to Be Me, which is the shit. The guitar and
electronics on here are fucking incredible. They create an intense
atmosphere with consistency between highs and lows, a whole lot is poured
into the tune and it is full of rhapsodic and melancholy moments. We make
it to what we're used to hearing at the end of a Cure song, and the track
goes into a reflective mode, the atmospheres reach another plateau,
tension is built...and they continue the quiet mood, then sneaking in the
intensity again. The song is a certifiable Cure Masterpiece, and,
forgiving the standardness of Adonais and Ocean, if you consider this
track and The 13th the band is doing its most daring and interesting work
since The Top. I am very, very excited.
Coil or something - Black Light District
----------------------------------------
I was going to review this but I can't really find anything to review.
Even if Love's Secret Domain was not a meaningless, pointless hash of
noise, this is. I can't even find anything to comment on. There are some
pretty bits, and there are gobs and gobs of junk splashing and clattering
around. Some people find this type of stuff disturbing in a fun sort of
way. To me it looks pretty pathetic up against the likes of Horse
Rotorvator and Stolen & Contaminated Songs, but I will reserve final
judgement until such time as I can make myself listen to the entire thing
without scanning through any of it. Until then, you have my permission to
like or dislike it as you may see fit.
Nearly God
----------
Great stuff. Considerably more trippy and less hoppy than Maxinquaye, but
that is not to say it doesn't groove some. I am still absorbing this one,
but I will say that I dislike none of it, most of it is beautiful or
cool, and it is one long unbroken sinister trip, probably the darkest
thing I've come across since the last Locust album. I'm not sure I love
it and I'm not sure it's brilliant...but I'm pretty sure.
Hope I didn't hurt anyone this time,

Just writing in defence of einexile (as if he needs it)
Keep up the good work, you're reviews are cool and the more people you
piss off with them the better. These people who get so agitated over
someone else's views are fucking sad, the kind of people who write into
the music press whining, "How dare you slag off my favourite band, they're
brilliant, all my friends think so as well etc. etc."
If you can't cope with reading other people's opinions on music, what are
you doing on this list in the first place?
In short-I find einexile's stuff entertaining. Anyone who doesn't, don't
read it OK? How hard is it to hit the delete button for God's sake.
Sorry but I had to get that off my chest.

Hi all...
This is only partially this-listy, but I am curious if anyone has any
information on what has become of Delicious Monster. They put out a
string of good CD singles culminating in their 1993 album Joie de Vivre,
on Flute Records, but since then I haven't seen or heard a word about
them.
Any info would be appreciated!
Thanks!

How come nobody mentioned that Low were playing at the Urban Art Bar last
Friday night??? Its the duty of this list to keep me informed of timely and
important shows in Houston! ;)
Moran? joanna? Lisa? I feel so....hurt.
I picked up a Public News last night while I was out shooting pool and what do
I see but a review of the great show Low put on the previous Friday night at
the UAB. I'm just sick. Here I've been waiting for a good show to come to
town and after last year when the Cranes cancelled b/c Alison Shaw caught

I was ardently working to get a copy of the Japanese edition of Lovelive,
and was talking to my friends in Japan about trading, etc.
HOWEVER, it turns out that the six tracks on the 3" cd are the extra
tracks on the single girl singles.
Anyway, I'm thumbs up on the new album. Yes, it's a bit of pop, if Lush
can provide for the new mainstream a quality sound, good for the world.
I can't wait to see if this tour is a good as the Split tour (I was so
good I saw it 2x).
Anyone else going to be at irving plaza may 2?

This is bullshit. Uh, in my opinion, that is. Can we repeat this one more
time for those who missed out before? Can we count it off one more time
from the top? A one two three four:
ALL REVIEWS ARE SOMEONE'S OPINION.
THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS THE ABSOLUTE TRUTH WHEN REVIEWING ART.
THEREFORE IT IS REDUNDANT AND UNNECESSARY TO PREFIX EACH STATEMENT WITH
"IN MY OPINION".
FLAMING SOMEONE'S REVIEW BECAUSE THEIR OPINION DIFFERS FROM YOURS IS
STUPID AND FUTILE.
IF YOU REALLY THINK THEY WERE WRONG, POST YOUR OWN REVIEW STATING YOUR
OPINION.
OR POINT OUT HOW YOU DREW DIFFERENT IMPRESSIONS FROM THE SAME SOURCE
MATERIAL.
Now I have to dig up that old bag of sticky Menth-o-Lyptus lozenges to
soothe my throat.
Take in contrast Andrew Norman's as-always erudite and interesting
response to e's review. He came to different conclusions about the music,
and even pointed out that e might listen to Orbital's previous EP again
and might come to different conclusions, but all in a perfectly polite
and productive way. Rock on, Andrew!
I still don't understand why it's e's reviews that always stir up this
kind of misplaced anger in people. Maybe it's because he actually
describes how the music makes him feel, whether it's postitive or
negative, and he shows that he really cares about the music to the extent
of feeling angry and cheated if he feels it's let him down. In my book
these are good things, much better than the "I dunno, I thought it was
good, you might not like it tho" that too many online reviews turn into.
I have to confess that I write most of mine too quickly and don't invest
the same kind of passion in them that e does.
Let's please stop with idiocy like:
> I don't think it _is_ at all.
Is not! Is too! Is not! Is too! Is not! Is too! Is not! Is too! Is not!
Sigh.

bought some new items yesterday of thislistiness:
1. new Hannah Marcus single. featuring two older songs available on both
river of darkness and weeds & lilies redone and two new songs.
the reworkings are nice, but the two new songs both feature our
main man Mark Kozelek on vocals alongside Hannah. available on
the san francisco label Spirit Music Industries.
2. closedown - nearfield. how did i wait this long? a spacier, keyboard
treatment enhanced ambient slowdive/bowery electric. very nice.
silent records.
3. elysian fields ep. loungy and jazzy. reminds me a little of a more
blues/jazz oriented mazzy star. like opal maybe!? great female
vocals and all sorts of instruments. radioactive records.
4. rachel's - music for egon schiele. wow. i had to put back bowery electric
so that i could afford this. piano, viola, and cello pieces
inspired by and written for a dance production for egon schiele's art.
exquisite packaging a la ipr with info and art of schiele.
i cannot recommend this more! breathtaking! highly emotive.
quarterstick records.
and then i also got the jamc peel sessions and the first echobelly ep,
bellyache, but no one cares about them anymore and on here...
good day!

First a question:
Does anyone know when is Tortoise playing in Los Angeles (the roxy i think),
is it may29? i am not too sure about this.
I would like to add my recommendation to whoever brought up Elysian Fields
i also got that EP a few weeks back and thought it was very cool.
That loungy sound is the greatest on a late night after work (which is what it
says on the sleeve too). Highly recommended.

Although I know for a fact that einexile the meek does not use his usally
self-throned style of writing on other lists, for some strange reason he
does take an absolute opinion on this list. I know that e' has a lot of
time and seems to be able to get alot of music going his/her/its direction.
I don't lilke his/her/its style of writing per se', but the fact is, none
of you are really writing music reviews yourselves. If he e starts to flame
you, just tell him/her/it to fuck off and prove his/her/it's points. Oddly
enough, I use to think einexile the meek was a dolt, then i realized that
he serves a purpose. He keeps everyone awake and challenged. This list is
for everyone and we learn from each other...."why can't we just get
along?!!! tehehe"
P.S. Right know I'm trying to get a catalog from Third Mind Records. I have
a few things from them. If any of you know of some really great bands off
this label....give me an e-mail.

Speaking of Doctor Who, I'd like to make a personal appeal to everyone on the
list to please watch the new Doctor Who series airing Tuesday night May 14th
at 8pm EST here in the US on the FOX network.
A regular fall 1 hour weekly series is riding on good ratings this show
receives during the Tusday night 2 hour mini-movie.
musically related....
Could someone give a review of Simon Raymondes former (?) side project known
as The Drowning Craze??? how do they compare with Cocteaux or any other
thislisty band for that fact?

What is a "sweet f.a."? I wondered about it when suede sang about it,
and it's now the title of the new love and rockets album.
wondering what the blob on the StP shirt is.
thanks

i remember, quite some time ago, my friend telling me about an rhp
show in ann arbor and mark had done some vocal work for warren...
singing an hnia song from mouth by mouth with the music to another MBM
tune {i think lip lyrics with drink, dress, and ink music..but i might
be wrong on that}. i also remember my friend telling me of bridget &
mark {when they were unrest} doing the same thing...
godzuki should open for hnia on tour,
