There is a furniture store in Toronto called Rema Rema
Furniture Mfg, Limited, believe it or not! Visit them at
937 Queen Street West or call (416) 364-0984 to buy an actual
sofa Rema Rema sat on in the studio while recording "Wheel In
The Roses". The Rema Rema love seat is a good buy as well...

Well, one fifth of Rema Rema later evolved into The Wolfgang Press,
namely Mark Cox and Michael Allen. Allen also played in another
early 4AD band Mass - they released a single (You And I) and an
album (Labour Of Love) in 1980 and '81 respectively.
Rema Rema we're originally signed to the Virgin offshoot label
Charisma but Ivo baught the rights from them so 4AD could release
their "Wheel In The Roses" EP (BAD 5, the first "official" 4AD
release). So, there's the connection!
Both the Rema Rema and Mass records are well worth picking up.
Never released on CD, both bands output for 4AD has never really
been exposed to a big audience aside from Rema Rema's "Fond
Affections", which was covered by This Mortal Coil and features
original Rema-er Mark Cox along with CINdYTALK vocalist Gordon
Sharp and Colourbox-er Martyn Young playing guitars and keyboards.

yep, and this one's quite surreal.
there was an 'in ribbons' poster on the wall of the student radio station in
an episode of neighbours a year or so back (the episode where the students
were interviewing mrs. mangle when she was standing in the local elections).
(do you get neighbours in the states? bad, cheap, popular soap opera from
australia, the program that launched kylie and jason donovan and craig 'bugs'
maclachlan on an unsuspecting world), in short, the last place you'd expect a
pale saints poster to be.

i imagine the mono business is one further attempt

last night i rented the movie "the crossing guard" with jack nicholson and
there was a dead can dance song played during a strip club scene. it was
during a slow strip dance and the tune was "the ubiquious mr. love

the movie itself was pretty good.

I had some Rapoon stuff on my hands a little while ago. It was ok. But
not exactly my cup o tea on the ambient front. For those who are
interested, they do a densely packed percussive thing with some Indian
mantras thrown in. The mixes tend to be kinda circular... almost
concentric. OK in the meditational sense, but not too great for
horizontal dancing. I found it interesting but not all that challenging.

Actually, Marc is somewhere in Pennsylvania doing his post-doc, while
Tanya is doing some sorta teaching thing in Japan. She'll be done with
whatever she's doing and will be back in the States this summer, and I
think those two will be doing some more recording then.
In the meantime, there's a 7" single due out later this summer on the ND
label, and it features a Jean-Paul Sartre Experience cover (and pretty
cool one at that, mind you).

Their are no beatles samples on the DCD record. Brendan and Lisa wrote a
song and while 4AD was preparing to release the song someone noticed that it
sounded like an old Beatles song (it definitely does). To make a long story
short, Brendan and Lisa were not even familiar with the Beatles song and did
not copy it, however, as George Harrison has learned (the hard way) it does
not matter if you meant it or not, if it has the same structure, get a
copyright clearance. That is all that is

I'm not just saying this because I'm British and in London, but the
radio, I feel, is probably the most overlooked media in the present
environment of digital-cd-rom-internet-laser-disc fetish, and the BBC,
more than ever before, is the best keeper of the new music flame.

Well, I think you got me! Unless Ivo remixed an obscure B-side at

Your CD player's reproduction is probably better than your Deck's (LP
player). Decks are more tempremental for example there is not much mid
range from my Deck but from my CD player, the sound is much better. Plus a
Deck's output is lower than a CD player going into an amplifier.

In Osaka, I recommend "Time Bomb" at Shinsaibashi.
Toporo 51 Bldg., 2-18-18 Shinsaibashi

They have a lot of rare & promo items. (expensive, I think.)
They take mail-order.
There are several record shops near "Time Bomb".
I hear that "Les Disques Du Soleil" at Umeda (Osaka Station) is good.
4F Matsuda Bldg., 2-7-2 Sonezaki
Kita, Osaka, Osaka 530, Japan
Midosuji Street. Near Umeda OS Hotel.
I strongly recommend you to buy "Record Map" at bookstore, if you have a

It's been a long time since I listened to them, it must be said. Waiting For A
Miracle is pretty dirgy and flat-sounding, but it does include the absolute
classic 'Independence Day'. Sleep No More is better. More variation, a better
sound, and (for the most part) better songs, including the dream-like title
track, and the quite sinister 'Dark Parade' which was written about the failed
helicopter rescue of the Iranian hostages back in '80, or whenever it was.
Fiction starts well with 'After The Rain', another great Comsats song, but
promptly dives into a pretty tuneless rut after that. I always thought they were
a better singles band, and a lot of their b-sides were much better than album
tracks. In the early eighties there was a cracking singles compilation called
Enz released in Holland (which I never bought). Actually, if anybody out there
knows - is there a good Comsats compilation available of their early stuff?

One or two bits and pieces that have recently found their way into my grubby
hands.
Stars On ESP has, of course, been reviewed to death here. My impressions are
mixed, but generally amongst the gems, there's a lot of inconsequential fluff.
That's true of all their records, but the gems to fluff ratio is lower than at
any time since Livonia. Disappointing.
Beck's new LP is similarly disappointing. Most of the tracks would stand out
alone on the radio, but all together the kind of appalachia/hip hop mix gets
pretty boring after a while. The tempo seldom changes, and Beck drones on in his
narcoleptic way. A neat idea done to death.
Spring Heel Jack's 68 Million Shades is supposed to be, according to most
reviews I've seen, a huge advance from last years brilliant 'There Are Strings'.
Alas, I have to report that it's not. It's less lush, and in places a little
jazzy - but in a boring Galliano way. There are some outstanding drum and bass
grooves, and the rhythms are more upfront, but it seems too self-conscious. They
seem to have fallen between two stools - toning down the great sweeping strings,
but at the same time not really cranking up to the hardstep challenges of Roni
Size et al. Maybe I'll grow to like it more in time.
Finally some odd musings.
The BBC are using Colourbox's world cup theme thing for their Tour de France
trailers on the radio.
His Name Is Alive didn't play on the radio (Radcliffe - Radio 1) on Wednesday
night. I tuned in too late to find out exactly why, but I gather it's something
to do with the MU and/or work permits.
people whose opinions I respect, stuff I've heard on the radio or in clubs, or
stuff people tape for me. As for short sound samples - well, they won't tell you
whether a track or record is particularly good or not (unless it's the first
four bars of 'God Only Knows', or something). But it doesn't take long to spot a
turkey.

Reporting from Kansas City the site of yesterdays disasterous Lolopalooza
I bring this report with deep regret and consternation. The Cocteau Twins
performed to a crowd of hate mongering Mettallica fans and were jeered off
the stage with mudballs and verbal abuse.
Let me first aploligize to the Twins for this heineous reception, the music
was great guys. Beautiful Job. I love you music and to have this be my
first live preformance was to be a rare treat for me not a reenactment of
the ritual abuse of Artists so commonly practiced in Kansas City's banal
and lifeless cutural vvoid. Thank you for coming and thank you for leaving
when you did. Take care of youselves and keep working your musical magic
because there are some of us here that are listening.
The set started out great. Pure Cocteau all the way, heavenly. I recognized
and loved all the songs yet am poor with the names.
The Crowd was hostile from the beginning of the show, waving "the Finger"
and shouting "fuck you you suck get off the stage". Then the mud throwing
ensued. At first there were only a few losers engaging in this practice and
I was able to accost one and make him stop. He later apologized to me with
a smirk on his face, "hey sorry about the show, man". The abuse of the
Twins went on untill Liz was hit in the face with a mud soaked lemon. She
curtly responded, "Thank you, Good Night." The show was over afeter about a
half hour of wonderful swirling music that was very openly emotional and
fresh.
I tried to talk to someone, anyone, backstage to let the Cocteaus know the
sincere and deep regret that I felt about the crowd's behavior but to no
avail. I talked to one "guard" and then to his "supervisor" and finally
resorted to discussing my need to apologize to a police officer who was
backstage. The police officer informed me that the Twins were in their
trailer and had "requested police sequesterment" and that I should try to
get a message to them later. This is that message.
The crowd was not admonished for their actions but the Bands requested that
the beer be cut off, which it was. There was no general remorse shown. I
sat in the chill out tent till it was closed by the show "authorities".
The Chill Tent sucked anyway. No one save one carnival worker and a couple
of african american hipsters with dreds was willing to share in any way.
Not drugs. Not conversation. They were all getting ready for Metallica.
Mettalica was, in my opinion, a group of lame lifeless losers of moderate
musical talent who were content with sucking the blood out of the rotting
corpse of their own future. Wake up, guys. Anger is valuable as Liz showed
when she confronted you, her perpetrators. But anger is not and end in
itself and your skill at being angry alone is not worth attention. Grow up
and make some music.
The next Cocteaus show I see will be in a safer place. If you do come back
and perform again, perform your next show in a more receptive venue, I'll
come to hear you. But, after living here for 32 years I am finally
considering moving. Good luck guys, blessed be you.
And note to 4ADers everywhere. Keep on listening. Be bold individuals. Fuck
the noise.

hi everyone,
sorry to post myselfish within days of my last one, but i thought there
might be some fans interested in hearing some soundbites off the new
album 'Songs for a Blue Guitar'.
The album lyrics are also transcribed already (o.k., so i'm a freak).
If you don't have the ability to playback sound files, let me just say
that the new album is fantastic. it's very broad, stylistically-
speaking, and the title track positively sounds like Mark doing a Hope
Sandoval impersonation, in a really, really excellent fashion.
i'll post a full review on the site in the next couple of days, though
i won't post here again, as non-RHP fans will probably get annoyed by
me posting 3 times in a week for the site.

It's a well known fact that DCD plays many unreleased songs
in their live shows. In fact for the Aion tour I seem to remember
that well over half of the material had not been released.
So besides Lisa and Brendan, who's in the touring band
this time? Is that "constantly running in place drummer"
with them again?

They did, but only for one hour (and they canceled the supporting act
because they wanted to start early in the evening) Lisa did sing well but
only on a few songs, she was still verry sick and left the stage twenty
minutes before the show was over. I hope she's feeling better on sunday for
you people in London...
The concert was good, not great (too short!). They did a few songs from
their last album and a lot from the Toward The Within time. One or two new
songs. I don't think there will be another live album after this tour.
The tour program is a 15 page bookled with a cd in the back-cover. Full
color and black paper with white ink. A lot of pictures and some
interesting info about the band. The track 'Sambatiki' is a 7.35 minute
instrumental piece of music. It will sold on the whole tour.

Hi, I've just joined this list mostly so I can ask this question:
I'm going to the Dead Can Dance concert here in Vancouver BC in August.
While perusing the Dublin concert review on the DCD website, I tried to
identify all the songs. Several of them do not appear in the discography
anywere (I just finished buying all the DCD albums today). Here's the list
and the source of the songs I could find. Anyone know where the unknown cuts
are from? Or are they new things that didn't make it onto the Spiritchaser
album?
(Also, some of them seem to be original from the Toward the Within album,
which I thought was a live album that didn't have original material)

weeks ago in champaign at the blind pig (which i did not attend)..
my (soon to be) roommate told me they were the best hes ever seen
them and along with lynn, henry, brendan and don, they have a new
second guitarist/keyboardist to take some of the live pressures
of henry, who played guitar and effects at the same time a lot..so
hell be able to concentrate on just guitar..the new songs sound
excellent, very meaningful and more like their first album, just
judging from the ones ive heard and what craig has told me..so i
guess thats about it..oh and theyre hoping to do a real tour for
once, as well...
rainboy..theyre not for me..

It's a well known fact that DCD plays many unreleased songs
in their live shows. In fact for the Aion tour I seem to remember
that well over half of the material had not been released.
the aion tour show i saw in dc had 28 songs, 19 of which were new at that
time, and only 10 of those 19 have been recorded since.
my current count for still unrelased songs is around 25 or so. this included
"lilian colours" which most bootlegs agree on as a title
"the childrens toys" a rather interesting marching sort of piece
"convict of sin" not the right title but has the lyrics "little man holds the
world in his hand"
"at first and then" (known in some circles as flutes from nowhere) which is
the completely extended version of the original peter ulrich track from the
second TMC cd. this song is my all time favorite and was completely wowed by
it at the aion show. everyone playing percussion. then they all stop on sync
and start again on sync. i have currently 4 different versions of this song
recorded at differing dates and it is very interesting to see how the song
progressed.
total thundering drums on this one.
and one more song who name escapes me right now (i ma moving so all my cds
are packed up) but is about how different religious factions kill each other
in the name of god and why that is wrong.
for those interested i may be putting together soon a dcd unreleased tape
featuring the best of dcd material never officially recorded, along with a
few things from brendans early band off the ak79 cd.
for those interested, send me email at [email protected] and we will
discuss it.

This report was absolutely disgusting to read. And I heard the Cocteaux
were "hand picked" by Metallica...any truth to that?

The De Nova Da Capo label that has been spitting out Elijah's Mantle works
has now put out a compilation CD of some of their other works including 2
tracks from Lisa Gerrard entitled "These Wings without Feathers".
Contibutions from CoEx, Elijah's Mantle, Lisa Gerrard, and Ronan Quays grace
this offering.......2 tracks each with the exception of Elijah's Mantle who
contribute only one track.
After one listening, I can whole-heartedly recommend a search for this one.
try your local tune shop....catalogue # is DNDC 007 CD....got mine for abouts
$16.99 me's thinks.
happy hunting~
