I'm curious as to why you think Seely is the housing for all that is cliched.
Boy girl sharing vox, underlying song structure somewhat reminscent of sped
up Luna or earlier nervous rock Pale Saints...so, I suppose that's where I
hear the references - they could do much worse, but they haven't :)
Don't count your Seely's before they hatch.

The work is entitled _Space_ and up to this point had only heard that it was
the work of jimi cauty of the KLF. Here's how the availability story goes
(file under - compendium: irritation)
There was supposedly 1000 initial copies printed back in '90 or so (not sure
of the label) and these subsequently all sold and thusly went out of print (I
am really starting to hate those three strung together words) and as a
result it was bootlegged. I'm not sure how many copies of the bootleg exist,
but I'm sure that the number changes daily :) I've read where the boot was
coupled with the KLF's _Chill out_ and that one or the other had material
chopped off to allow for time's sake *and* I've heard of there being a boot
of just _Space_ itself. If you do track it down, expect to pay in upwards of
$30 for it (and that of course could be the original...or not). Me? I have
a dubbed copy from last year courtesy of BiZ (thanks) that has endured many
repeat listens and ensuing frustration due to the absence of it on ANY cd in
my collection. Anybody want to give a compensated Christmas present :)

hi all...
last night, low performed in omaha at this place called the cog
factory, a place that normally hosts punk bands. simply put, this was
one great concert. they played "anon," "over the ocean", and "the
plan" from their new album and "words" from "i could live in hope." i
assume the other songs they played are on "long division" or
"transmission", which i don't have. they closed the set with a lovely
Christmas song, which was interesting to hear in light of the recent
discussion about Christian artists. all in all, low played 9 songs.
only about 15 people showed up, but low still played an amazing set.
the vocal harmonies translated perfectly to a live setting, and alan's
guitar made some lovely drones. they just stood there, basically
motionless as they played, putting out beautifully sparse music.
afterwards, we talked to alan. they're all pretty amicable people,
joking about the size of the crowd and touring.
basically, what i'm trying to say is, if low comes to your
area, go see them. you won't be disappointed. i don't see too many
shows, but this one was amazing!
the opening band played some really good spinanes-ish pop, with
just a drumset and bass guitar. they used to be called donnybrook,
but they changed their name.
i also picked up "prazision" by labradford. i haven't had a
chance to listen to it, but i'm looking forward to having one. maybe
at work tomorrow, or as something to chill out to after finals.

p.s. all of you should check out projekt records' "excelsis" album.
your favorite Christmas carols given the lovely projekt
treatment. love spirals downwards' version of "welcome
Christmas" is really good, as is thanatos' cover of "the firs
noel".

Anybody out ther eheard the new compilation that came out recently called
"Northern Exposure"? It purports to have tracks from folks like
Underworld, FSOL and their ilk... anybody know what tracks are on it?
Date: Sun, 15 Dec 1996 13:19:15 EST
Got the Stellar ep on Detox (9602). It's pleasant, if unremarkable,
gentle guitar pop - kind of Field Mice meet Dubstar. The singer's voice seems a
little weedy, though. Not tracked down 9601 - Toucan as yet.
Gus Gus (or three of them) are interviewed in December / January's Jocke
Slut magazine (might be difficult to track down outside the UK)

I just read that Frank Black is name of the main character in Chris
Carter's new TV-production 'Millennium'. Where did he get that name?
The series will be shown over here sometime next year.. is it any good?
