within?

There's been some discussion about the Cocteau Twins' last full-length
offering, and being the opinionated sort, I thought I'd put in my two cents'
worth.
I totally agree with Jens Alfke on this one...

Many people will recommend "Shimmering, Warm & Bright" but I found it
disappointing and never did listen to it as much as the first two albums. I
*HIGHLY* recommend "White-Out Conditions", their first album. I think it's
on the same par as "Birds of Passage". It's even more brilliant when you
realise just how young Anneli was when she wrote these songs (exact age,
someone might know, but I'm pretty sure she was still a teenager). If you just
can't get enough, find a copy of an album by Tsunematsu Matsui. The title
is something like "Yorokobi no uta" ?? and it features vocals by Anneli
Drecker. "White-Out Conditions" should still be available from Nettwerk
(someone out there can probably supply their email address...)

EoST certainly started out "shoe-gaze-y" (ahem, at least you didn't say
"etherial"!). I would characterize their first album "Sussurate" as being
half way between "Isn't Anything" MBV and Slowdive's first album. About
the only other thing I can think of to say is they are from the old
Czechoslovakia.

Seefeel's first EP "More Like Space" was by far the most shoegazy; it's
really a fusion of the more ambient MBV stuff with ambient techno. They've
gradually moved away from that. I do believe they still produce most of their
sound with guitar/bass/drums -- just more heavily processed.
Which tracks were on the comp? If you want any more Seefeel, you should get
the "Polyfusia" comp, which has their earlier stuff. "Quique" is great but
has a few weak tracks and is much more ambient. They pull off some very
interesting tricks with out-of-phase loops. "Starethrough" is an excellent
EP, particularly the title track which has some amazing low bass sounds.
EOST's first EP was much more shoegazery, but also rather boring. A pretty
straightforward MBV ripoff. Someone described it as "put on some guitar
effects, play a riff for a while, put on some different effects, play for a
while..." Free-D is a much more interesting album but less guitarry and more
ambient.
So tell _me_ more about Disco Inferno ... there's a track by them on the
"Isolationism" comp that didn't impress me; weird noodling that reminded me a
lot of the various Wire solo projects, like Gilbert & Newman's stuff. Which
is fine if you enjoy that stuff but it don't do much for me.
[On now: Horizon222 "Through The Round Window". Excellent chilled-out trance
techno. Dare I compare it to the first two Orb albums??]

Well, actually, they haven't released anything this year - or even last year!
Their last CD was "Shimmering Warm & Bright", which came out in fall of '92.
It's a great album, but may be hard to find since the company that released
it - Dali, a subsidiary of Chameleon - went under about a year ago.
"Birds of Passage" preceded it; I think it came out in 1990. It was their
last as a trio, as Geir Jenssen (I think that's his name) left the band; he
now creates ambient techno under the name Biosphere. And isn't "Intravenous"
a great song? Wow...
Their first album, "White-Out Conditions", came out one or two years before
that. I've never heard it, so I can't really comment on it. I've heard it's
good, but Bel Canto fans tend to be somewhat worshipful, so it might not be
too "honest" of an opinion.

Rob, I thought I was nuts, but I noticed it too! In fact,
I brought the disc back to the store for an exchange, and the
"dropouts" were still there. I know from the old analog days
(sigh) that a whole batch sent to a store will probably be in
error if you discover your copy has trouble, so I'm probably out
of luck in that case. If anyone else has this trouble (although
I can't verify the times reported), please let us know!

those problems are also on the advance release digipak CD.
all this reminds me of the Propaganda album "A Secret Wish"
where there at least they listed all of the audio glitches
on the back of the CD case! but those problems were far less
noticeable than the DCD ones.

I would imagine that the sound edit would be different for the video, since
there is a lot of extra noise and periods when Lisa and Brendan are talking.
These things were edited out for the CD.

agreed. BoP was the first one I bought on a similar whim a few
years back. I think I went out and bought WOC the same week
along with the few singles I could find. Wonderful stuff. I
like all three albums but think that WOC is my favorite..
absolutely creepy music- I was reading Lovecraft's At the
Mountains of MAdness when I first listened to it. It sounds
like music to listen to trudging through Arctic/Antarctic snow
and ice fields- very eerie and lonely I think.
go get the other albums.. asap.
