Maybe I'm wrong, but I heard that this was already voted NO on by a ratio of
about 100 to 1. Someone told me that ended months ago....

This takes 30 seconds to do and is worth it...
Please take a moment to read this -- it concerns a vote for a white
supremacist Usenet newsgroup. If you have a moment, I would urge you
to vote NO, according to the instructions below, and to forward this
message to others.
A group of NEO-NAZIS are trying to form a newsgroup on
Usenet called "rec.music.white-power", so that they can get their
message of hate out to young people using the Internet.
Newsgroups are public discussions on the Internet and their
formation requires enough support from the Internet community.
EACH AND EVERY ONE OF US HAS ONE VOTE when it comes
to creating a new Usenet group. I hope you will vote NO and
thereby tell these NAZIS we don't want their stuff on the net..
Below is the procedure, please repost this plea and get the NO vote out.
If you want to see the official call for votes, you can try on
"news.group".
DO NOT VOTE TWICE - that would constitute voting fraud.
HOW TO VOTE:
Send e-mail (posts to newsgroups are invalid) to:
[email protected]
This is an impartial, third party vote taker.
Please check the address before you mail your vote. Your mail
message, to be accepted by the counting computer, must
contain only the following statement with no signature:
I vote NO on rec.music.white-power
Vote counting is automated. Failure to follow these
directions may mean that your vote does not get counted. If you do not
receive an acknowledgment of your vote within three days contact the
votetaker about the problem. It's your responsibility to make sure
your vote is registered correctly.
Here's what Canada's George Burdi, of the neo-Nazi Heritage
Front, had to say about this vote, on February 21, on his
RESISTANCE mailing list:
"There is a call for votes coming on rec.music.white-power
in the next week or so, and you will be notified in a special
issue of RREN exactly what to do. FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS
TO THE LETTER. Let me be perfectly blunt and state that we
have more than enough net-nazis to win this thing handsdown. But
every one of you must vote YES! And just voting yes means nothing
unless you do it properly. So you have been forewarned. The
instructions are coming to your email box soon, and they are not
complicated. Just follow them as told, and we will have a WP
music newsgroup finally!"
If Mr. Burdi's confidence disturbs you, please give this letter the widest
possible distribution, and help us deliver the largest NO vote in the
history of the UseNet.
Thanks

They haven't released anything since the album. Their new album is
planned to be released in March 1997 (with a single or two before that).
They are currently recording the new album (and playing a few gigs
in the UK now and then).

I guess it's about that time again. :-)

SO, what have you heard out there that is completely original and
absolutely untouched by human hands?? Absolutely nothing, since it is
not possible.

This right here is my point exactly. I have heard many alternatives
being 'shoveled out' on many occasions on both VH1 and AAA radio,
in-between these so-called pleasantries. The major record labels have
corrupted the entire genre.

In a message dated 96-11-27 23:35:27 EST, you write:
<< the Aeroplane CD/12" is the 3rd release on Detox...the first 2 I believe
were
Touchan and Stellar (haven't heard them yet)
Aeroplane's "Signs of Life" contains 4 mixes of the titled track and feature
vocals by Heidi Berry, who shares writing credits.
It's neat hearing Heidi in this genre...it works for her. Check it out if
you have the opportunity.
For those who are interested, the catalogue #s are apparently running
according to year and # of release. Being the 3rd release on Detox this
year, Aeroplane received DTX 9603 as it's identity.
I called 4ad about the last time the Detox topic came about on the list.
They said that they have no offshoot label at this time. Also, they had
never heard of Detox. They were adament about the whole thing saying if it
was a 4ad offshoot, we would be able to order it from the mail order. So
they say it is probably a hoax.
Date: Thu, 28 Nov 1996 02:29:10 -0500
Just a note.
People should go out now and buy Half String's new album. It is one of the
best non-4ad stuff I have heard. It is up there for me with Joy Division,
Breathless, and Echo and the Bunnymen. Get it.

Hi welcome to the Tanya Donelly chat!
hello
hello tanya how ya doin
i'm fine how are you
good but a bit chilly
me too
When did you first pick up a guitar and why?
i started playing when i was 15 because i was bored and lonely
did you not enjoy your playtime then
there is very little playtime where i come from
Can you tell us about your early relationship with Kristen as a half
sister, before your first band?
kristin and i were friends before we became sisters...
we were 6 when we met and we haven't stopped talking since
I know you started your first band when you were only fifteen so do you
have any suggestions or advice for wannabes who would like to get into
the music industry?
the music industry is very mysterious to me even now...
it's random and fickle.
its stranger to outsiders, give us something
concentrate on songs first of all, and play your butt off and send tapes
and tapes and tapes and don't be easily cowed
top answer never be put off the hairbear bunch wern't
What is your favorite Throwing Muses album?What is your favorite
Throwing Muses album?
house tornado house tornado
why?
it's the spookiest and the instrumentation is great (i think)
what are your top 5 favourite cartoons?
ren and stimpy, the simpsons, bugs bunny...
real monsters, and josie and the pussycats
Alternative rock has hit the big time over the last few years. Have you
found any of the new breed of bands inspiring?
i like radiohead, the catherine wheel, ...
pj harvy
kim deal
what do you think of oasis
he writes really great songs
and the other he is a great rock star
did you prefer belly to the muses and the breeders?
i'm going to make you throw up and say that i'm equally proud of
everything i've done, ...
but of course belly was closer to my heart
Ask Tanya if her new stuff is similar to her work in Belly. Cheers lads!
i used more instruments and the people who play them on this record...
there are some (tasteful) strings and loops and machines
is it strange not working with a band
as opposed to session musicians
it's starnge using my name on it's own, which i wanted to avoid...
but i've really loved playing with a variety of musicians
why do you want to avoid using your own name
i don't use session musicians -- my friends played everything
i feel more exposed with my name out there
you chose belly cos it was your fave word what's your fave word now
wine
Dear Tanya - When are you playing London, belly 8 thought it might be
Camden this month?
how about more wine
please
i'm playing dingwall's on thursday (i think)
is there a band called wine?
we don't think so and we know loads
someone should nab it
Tanya, what would you have used for a stage name if not Tanya Donelly?
somebody out there name your band wine right now
Host JoBarry_MSN:
lol
taffy
Question to Tanya- Are you thinking of doing anymore work with kim deal?
i'm wouldn't avoid it, but kim and i are pretty separately busy
Do you think Shearer is worth =A315million?
i don't know who that is
steve morton is a nail-biter
he's englands football captain
i'm sure he's well worth every cent
Tanya do you like styles of music like Dina carroll or do you think they
are Spammy?????
again, i have to plead ignorance -- who is she
she makes the kind of music we'll never play
then i don't like it
The listener of an album often associates it with a time in their lives.
Does the same apply only more so for the artist?
absolutely. i can't listen to certain things without regressing
e.g
the first muses record was made at a scary time for me and so was star
and i was tipsy all through pod and making weird personal choices
if the sky wasn't blue what colour would it be?
blood red
Is there such thing as a perfect album? Once an album is finished and
put out can you switch off from the creative process?
music is kinetic and so it's impossible (i think) to perfectly record
something that moves so constantly
Drug problems seem to have been hounding the US rock scene recently
(Jimmy Chamberline, Kristen Pfaff, Kurt etc), how have you managed to
avoid it all? Is the drug scene kind of thrust onto all rock stars?
musicians are targeted in drug issues because they are a public focus
anyway, ...
drugs are everywhere
what top 3 things would you insist on having in your dressing room?
water, wine, and cheese
When you teamed up with Kim Deal to form the Breeders you must have felt
that you were in the ultimate supergroup, especially after the release
of "Pod". Was it difficult to keep the Muses going at the same time?
when i was a breeder, it was strictly a side project
ah but kim deal said it was never intended as a side project
steve morton is a nose-picker
she's revising, then
Once you=92d left both the Muses and the Breeders both bands carried on
regardless. That must have brought home the fact that no band member is
indispensable. Was that difficult to handle? Did you keep thinking "Oh I
wouldn=92t have played that like that".
no band member is dispensable if the band in question is strong
i meant indispensable i really did i can't type
jo_
Ask Tanya how Ivo is,and what he's up to
we'll let you off
ivo is happy and healthy and well and living with his lovely and fiesty
wife in l.a.
what's the most digusting thing you've ever done at a party?
i burned off my eyebrows trying to light a cig
What are the main reasons for you going solo?
we all needed to do other things and we were about to implode
Ask Tanya about her shoulder pads,fashion plus or minus,we should vote
now!
shoulder pads are not for the weak-hearted
Touring for so long sometimes, do songs lose their personality and
become a sequence of things to do?
i try very very hard not to let this happen, but sometimes i do robot
through and that sucks
tell us about your new single burn
the song itself or the ep?
the song!!!!!!!!!
it's about brats and the ruthless pruning of them
what about its double meaning
all in good fun, of course
what is us brits don't get it man
it's a loaded word, to be sure
bum has three meanings in the states -- A) one's ass B) a homeless
person C) a loser and user
i am referring to the latter
C
we were just joking
we just couldn't believe the title
What is your favourite drink?
wine
water
cheese
Tanya- If we call our band Wine, will you jam with us ?
that depends -- where are you and are you any good
When will your new material be released in North America? And when do
you plan to tour over here? I'm especially hoping you visit Canada.
the e.p. will be on import in N.A. and the album comes out in March
Are your parents musical and did they have much influence on you and
Kristin's choice of "career"?
both of our fathers play guitar and her dad is a great songwriter on his
own...
Will you always be guitar orientated or can you see a time when you
experiment with other formats?
i think the fact that nothing was expected of us helped?
what was your nick name at skool?
i'm interested in getting into the "other side" more
t
Tanya-We live near cambridge and we are s*it
come to my cambridge (MA) and get better
when is your single and album due for release?
the single is Nov. 25 and the album is March

Cocteau Twins release a brand new song called "Touch Upon Touch" on the
forthcoming edition of the Volume CD/magazine. The song was played on
their last tour.
SLASH and Burn: London is gradually in the process of accquiring the
back catalogue of Slash, the pioneering California-based label that grew
out of a fanzine. Coming this month: popular reissues from the likes of
Violent Femmes (didja know that 2 million copies of their debut have
been sold worldwide so far, featuring that song that frat boys
everywhere like to shout along with), Faith No More, Dream Syndicate and
pioneer punkers like Fear, The Germs, The Misfits and X -- some of these
have never been on CD at all before...
The Cardigans keep breaking new ground with "Lovefool" - it features
prominently in Baz "Strictly Ballroom" Luhrmann's new adaptation of
"Romeo and Juliet"... While in "R&J" mode, check out a friend of mine's
Claire Danes page at http://web.idirect.com/~claire/index.html...
Keep an eye out for issue number 13 (Dec. 1996) of "Internet
Underground" as Kristin Hersh of Throwing Muses talks about the ultra
dedicated fan base "community" built around the Throwing Music site.
The site is well reviewed in the issue. The site is at
The Toronto Red House Painters and His Name Is Alive gig at Lee's Palace
on December 4th is selling really well, so don't wait too long to get
tix. There is an apparently very strict photo ID rule in effect, so be
ready for it. See you there!

Well, I got a postcard from Detox IN a package from 4AD Mailorder, listing
the 3 releases so far:
DTX 9601 TOUCAN 'Shine' CD
DTX 9602 STELLAR 'Stellar EP' CD
DTX 9603 AEROPLANE 'Signs Of Life' 12"/CD
then...
Ajax Disco Spanner EP
Bathers LP
Slab SP
Thrush Puppies EP
(...so Trush Puppies haven't signed to 4AD but to Detox.)
The address on the card is:
Detox Artifacts UK
PO Box 12419
London SW18 1FD

Which can get a little annoying if you don't happen to think they're all
that great. I think they're too self-consciously retro and trying too hard
to make "pure pop". They also look dorky and the one with the glasses and
the permanent five-o'clock shadow on the upper lip has the worst
nasal-sounding voice ever.
