It's not necessary to flame anyone to provide evidence for accusations
that you have already made. I still don't see you doing that. You simply
spew whatever you feel might be the truth and expect everybody to swallow
it. Maybe it doesn't qualify as character assassination if the accusor
has zero credibility, but I don't see why I--or kj, or SriLank, or Jens,
etc, etc--should just sit here and take it simply to appease a few
whiners with 2400 baud modems and spines made of cartilage.
You cannot end what you have started. You have thrown a bomb into a

I am really upset about this CT-DCD "war" that is going on.
Personally speaking, I think both bands are great and have
done incredible things. However it would be absolutely wrong
to compare them in any way... I can even quote Robin Guthrie
himself saying "We don't like to be compared to a band like DCD,
who makes sad and pretentious music." They are just soo different.
Plus, it would be silly to assume that two bands would, should
develop into similar directions. I prefer to think that the two
bands have been the vanguards of good music.

Dear Friends;
I have the privilege to announce that the July 4th Istanbul date of
DCD was NOT CANCELLED! Lisa was not sick, but quite in form actually.
They played mostly from "SpiritChaser," some form "Toward the
Within" and "Into the Labyrinth." Their sound was excellent
and I was really excited, since this was the first time I saw them.
(actually the first time for Istanbul as well) The venue (Cemil Topuzlu
Acikhava Tiyatrosu) was packed. That means 7000 people folks! I did
not know DCD was so popular in Turkey. (or anywhere!)
I will post the playlist as soon as as learn the names of the new
songs.. The concert featured another first; before the concert I actually
bought an imported, licenced copy of "SpiritChaser." It was about high
time. For the last 8 years I had gotten used to the idea that I would
have to beg someone to bring me a copy of a particular new 4ad album
form France or Germany. I usually waited for months, things got lost
on the mail, and I ended up paying a lot more... So I am delighted to
to welcome 4ad to Turkey -- officially. I guess this also solves another
important problem that I had mentioned in my article last year. I was
very pissed off with people who shamelessly ripped off DCD's music
and used it in cheap fashion shows and stupid refrigerator commercials.
I am talking for this country only, however I know this problem is
a rather common problem thru-out the world. Let's hope that this new
licence deal will protect artist like DCD...

It's nice to hear that Lisa made such a _miraculous_ recovery for the Istanbul
show. London was cancelled only 4 days earlier, much to the dismay of many
British DCD fans who had travelled down to see them perform.
I spoke to 4AD on July 5th, they said they would be making every effort to
convince DCD to reschedule a UK show but could not promise anything. If anyone
with any influence with DCD is reading this pleeeeeeze put the pressure on. 1
live appearance in the last 3 years in the UK is hardly enough when they have
such a dedicated following. Also, what about a show 'up North' - Manchester has
some excellent venues - large, small .... whatever they want.

I received the 4AD catalogue at the time of the Schism EP (it had the

outdated as a number of articles I ordered, were not available any longer
(eg. A Day 12", Official Colourbox...). Can anyone tell me if there is a more
recent catalogue available. How often do they update and publish these
things? It doesn't even list the Dizzy EP by the Muses.......

been too many of these - is the list in this catalogue complete? I think it lis

6 groups (Unrest, Insides, Spoonfed Hybird, Bette Serveat, That Dog,

The catalogue is seriously out of date, there was a small update flier
sent out around the end of 1995 which lists deletions and additions
but I've had nothing since. 4AD keep promising to update so keep your
fingers crossed.
Guernica was an offshoot from 4AD to showcase new bands. Apart from
the official releases the only other stuff I've got off the label is
Underground Lovers Promo 12"
Guernica Sampler 12" (Underground Lovers and Unrest)
Guernica Sample CD (Spoonfed Hybrid, Insides, That Dog).
If you want more details let me know.
The only other Spoonfed Hybrid release I've got is a ltd 7" through
some French label which I got direct from Ian by responding to an
advert in NME, I've also got the ESP Summer 10" and ESP Continent CD
through Ian. In Ian's last bulletin he did mention the possibility of
further Hybrid releases, I've written to him recently so when I get a
reply I'll post the outcome.

I think someone in the States said that there was a CD out over there
which includes the tracks on the French 7". I have not seen it out in
the UK though so if you get any info, please do post it.
On a related matter I got the BEAR (Chris Trout of Spoonfed Hybrid,
AC Temple, Kilgore Trout andno doubt many others) album "Disneytime"
yesterday and if you have heard any tracks by BEAR and quite rightly
thought they were wonderful hunt down this record. It is on Che' records.
Whilst I am here I picked up a Kostars (two of Lucious Jackson with
sweet guitar pop) album Klassics with a K (Grand Royale) a while back
which includes the chillingly wonderful pop song Hey Cowboy. 4ad relevance is th
t it was recorded
and co-produced by Josephine Wigs. I have the Hey Cowboy 7" as well,
can anyone tell me if there are anymore releases? How does the sound
relate to Luscious Jackson? I heard a few tracks years ago andwasn't
impressed. Am I missing something?

I've been lurking here for awhile, and have found this list
to be (even at its worst - wink) really lively and interesting
especially since I live in what could be termed at best a
musical backwater.
That part of this note out of the way, it's time to get down
to brass tacks...
I run a web site that's fairly successful and has been up since
December of last year. In that time it's won some pretty nifty
awards, including listing on the Microsoft Network Pick of the Week.
The site is an Arts journal -- nothing snooty or 'too-good-for-
you' but actually a site that offers opinion/editorial and
informative/how-to articles on any areas of the arts that we
can find someone interested in writing about... We also
include music and film reviews.
What I'd really love to include each month are a couple of good
lively discussions of some cool 4AD-ish this-listy new musical
releases (or maybe even some background material on where some
of these groups came from!)
If you'd like to spread your opinion far and wide on the web
about your favorite (or not-so) music, and can at least peck
the keys on the keyboard with your nose for about 500 words
worth or more, I'd love to hear from you!!!

I've not found any overt references to any sort of organized
religion in any hnia product to date. their (former?) drummer
has a record out on a christian label, and i know that warren
went to catholic skool... the music is fantastically concerned
with the spirt and the spiritual. but in a metaphysical rather

their live performances have been in my opinion nothing like
the studio records. as a knee-jerk hnia fanatic i of course
implore you to drop everything to see them. but if i had to
choose between hnia on headphones in the dark or hnia live
onstage, i would be in the dark. warren's studio abilities are
legendary. fascinating. trippy.

for some reason hnia are always compared to cocteautwins, this
maybe because there's nothing else that bears the comparison.
both use studio goodies for supernatural effects, both feature
godlike female singing, both seem custom made for the drug
experience.... but they arent at all alike in overall sound.
hnia have a zillion different sounds, the cocteaus (especially
now) seem to have only one...
hnia are top five of all time for me. they occupy favored
positions in the cd-towers which house my collection, being
neighbours with dcd, cocteaus, peter murphy, love and rockets,
this mortal coil...
if you had to start with one cd by them, get home is in your head.

it could be worse, u know. if u thought that CT playing Lolla was of bad
taste, check this out:
Mark Geiger, the so called co-founder of Lolla wanted to get either DCD or
CT to play one night. as it has already been mentioned, Kirk
hammett really wanted to play with The Cocteau Twins.
sick, don't u think? a friend who is going to Lolla in NYC (one of those
who refused to go to the CT show with me) was bugging me about
"what is a Cocteau Twin?" she, a red hot chilli pepper/GNR/megadeth
lover; wanted to borrow my few CT's cds, "because she heard kirk
liked them. they must kick ass!" tee hee, u had to see her face
when i played Bluebeard for her. :)))
oh, for those of u wanting to know where i read about Lolla, DCD and CT,

own confrontational level. Whether or not you benifited from this 'silly
sermon' or not, I really dont care. I would have hoped however that it
may have diffused something as useless as a flame war in favor of
actually talking about music.

Does Warren steal your caps loc key? It seems like all the fanatical HNIA fans
don't have one...
I'm moving to Nashville at the end of the month so I'm about to unsubscribe for
awhile while I'm turning down my email "faucet". If I owe anyboy anything, I
will still have the same email address for awhile, so don't worry about it not
working if you need to get in touch.
Everyone take care and don't let the "yochims" or "derfs" bite you. ;)

Now, either that is a really funny joke OR you just DON'T get it! If you say
you're ending the flame war then end it unilaterally. If you wanna keep feeding
the flames then do so and i'll run to the store and get some marshmellows
because this is some humorous readin'.

respond at all, or keep it up on the list. It all depends on whether you really
meant it when you said "the flame war ends here."

Enough of the Cocteau Twins and Dead Can Dance already. Someone post a
message or two about music, please. (dan, you can send me mail about the
Cocteaus and DCD any time.)
1. Shelleyan Orphan
Thanks to Brant for the Shelleyann info. I wonder why they waited until
their third album to release their best song, which they played at the LA
Cure show prior even to Century Flower's release. I bought all three
albums looking for this one song, Burst. Arguably this one song is worth
the price of all three albums combined so I don't mind.
Some fucker stole my Helleborine! Put me on the want list, please. :)
I mentioned the following before briefly but have to mention them more as
a springboard of sorts to my unreasonable requests for information. Yeah.
2. Insides, Instinct Ambient, & c..
Mysteries of Science have a track on the Instinct Ambient compilation
Ambient Systems, which is generally excellent. I mention it because it is
the most depressing, dreary thing I have heard since "I Need Feel" of of
the Every Day Shines ep. If you haven't heard that track, time to buy the
ep because the song is considerably less uplifting than either of their
albums (as Earwig or Insides). If I have to pick favorites off of
Euphoria I will say Darling Effect and Carly Simon, though yes, the
entire album is essential. If you like and miss that dreary, rainy,
somehow disturbingly happy music look into Mysteries of Science. The comp
I just mentioned also has superb work by SETI, Adham Shaikh, Human Mesh
Dance, and Facil, plus not so staggering work by Omicron, who is
nevertheless sometimes staggering. Just my monthly comp recommendation,
really, but I also have a question.
But first, an interruption just for Elvia: Elvia, if you're wondering why
I haven't responded to Gio's post on the ambient list, it's because I
respect him and can't just knock off a response like I can with you. Just
thought I'd clear that up a bit.
And now the eternal question. What the fuck are the Insides doing and why
is it taking them so long? I am starting to get angry on a regular basis
over their absence. You realize, I hope, that it has now been very nearly
three years since their last album. Ralske's Syndrome attacks.
3. The Waterlillies. Really. Opus III, too.
And now that everything from 1994 sounds kind of corny to me I can come
out of the closet and wholeheartedly recommend the second Waterlillies
album, Tempted. There are a lot of pretty dorky electronics on here--not
quite Madonna material but lamer than bad Opus III sometimes. Bangy
pianos and thumpy house beats, etc. The singer has the longest name I've
ever seen on paper and sings like Ms. Opus a little. The key here is
brilliant pop writing and some beautiful keyboard overlays. I have always
liked The Waterlillies despite the apparent whackness because of these
elements. The first album, Enveluptuosity, hinted at this near its
beginning but ruined itself over the last half with a lot of musical
theatre and fashion show shite. Tempted has a bit of the musical theatre
thing going on, but otherwise it is very strong, forgiving of course all
that needs forgiving. I mean I don't think of it much but I really love
this music, and would gladly take a new Waterlillies album in leiu of a
new Opus III or Seitn Etienne release. What day is this? Monday? I hate
being on break. Never know when my Dubstar album is coming in. >f<
Allow me to cut to the chase. When is the/a new Waterlillies album coming
out??

This whole problem could be solved if everyone involved would look into
getting an email client (I recommend Eudora or Claris Emailer) that
allows filtering. It's then a matter of moments to have all mail from
e.g. Elvia/Derf deleted unread. (Derf can instead delete everyone else's
mail, if it upsets him so.) I've been doing it for months and it's really
helped my blood pressure.
On any list there are going to be idiots who can't write their way out of
a paper bag and nonetheless like to write long messages full of vitriol.
Best thing to do is simply to ignore them.
I'm pretty sure that a filter-capable email client is within everyone's
reach. I haven't used a command-line based Unix mail program in, oh, a
decade but I'm certain the state of the art has reached them too. Look
into it, it'll prolong your life.
(Some reviews forthcoming. Bought M&K and, after a few songs that were
enjoyable, lost my concentration. I'll try to listen to it again.
Transglobal Underground, on the other hand, are mighty fine.)

Speaking of the mercy ep thing, has a tracklist been released? First song
is a reworking of mercy w/orchestra, correct? Unless someone has heard
otherwish, I believe the others will be the three newies they played on
the Lush tour. They are "Trying to reach you" (the "I've got her number
on my wall" song), "One More Time", and an untitled song.
has a release date been announced and then pushed back?

The Cocteau Twins list is down (after everyone received several hundred
message reject notices) so I thought I'd try here.
The latest release date for the Violaine singles was today, July 8th. Can
anyone in the UK verify that they actually were released?
Thanks,

A few weeks ago I wanted to see Scheer in Amsterdam: cancelled, then the
Dead Can Dance show: cancelled. This week I wanted to see The Amps in
What the hell is wrong with those 4AD artists?
Oh, and last weeks Mazzy Star concert in Amsterdam: cancelled!
So four-and-a-half of the five concerts I wanted to see last month were
cancelled (the fifth one was the second Dead Can Dance show in Amsterdam;
cancelled after one hour). I think I'm going to become a Brian Adams/Tina
Turner/Toto/Bon Jovi fan... because they're touring all the time, every
year and always perform. (but their music makes me sick so I won't be able
to go...)

I think whether or not you "deify" the current CT output depends on when
you
first started listening to the CT. I find that people who were introduced
to the Cocteaus by HOLV-era stuff tend to prefer the newer material to the
mid-80's stuff. Whereas those of us who discovered them earlier are less
enamored with their more recent output. Reasons for liking CT based on
hearing "Five Ten Fiftyfold" (my first exposure), are bound to be very
different from those based on hearing "Pur".

I think that's a sweeping generalization--the first CT song I ever heard
was "Carolyn's Fingers", and the first whole album I ever listened to was
HOLV, yet I listen to _Treasure_ and _Garlands_ more than anything else in
my collection. I think it's more a matter of interest in the band than
"inital exposure" as to one's preferences--i.e., the more one explores
"older" CT stuff (pre-HOLV) the more one begins to appreciate it. Fans of
the newer stuff exclusively (and please don't get me wrong--I DO NOT think
liking FCC is a sin! "Summerhead" is one of my favorite songs!) simply may
not have much exposure to older stuff.... Which does't mean they don't
like it....

KNDD, that nasty 99.999% grunge station here in Seattle that I only listen to
when I'm changing CDs, had Tim and Angelo in the studio for an interview this
afternoon. I only caught the last 15 minutes or so of it, they played about
three songs, including "Fall in Love With Me", and two others I don't remember
the titles to, but one was about Tim's father dying. Anyway, they said the
album will be released in the US on August 22, and the single (didn't catch
which one, but I recorded what I heard, so I can check if anyone wants)will be
released very soon.
The music sounded pretty good, by the way.

hi all...
i just got back from the cornerstone festival and i had the pleasure
of seeing velour 100 in concert. live, the songs were incredible and
amon's voice seemed even better than it does on the album. it was
about 20 or 30 minutes long, so they couldn't do a whole lot of
material; it left me wanting more. they reproduced the swirling
sounds of the album extremely well. the only complaints i have was
that i was standing(i wqanted to simply sit and relax while
listening) and that i was standing by 4 guys who insisted on
tlking quite loudly while everyone else was trying to enjoy the music.
however, those are small complaints and i highly recommend velour 100;
if they're ever in your area, go see them. btw, i got to talk to trey
for a little bit and he's a really nice guy!
