I got my order from Shaolin Temple in today -- including the His Name is
Alive/Little Princess 7". Surprised I got it on one piece -- 3 7"s, and
all they were packed in was one of those flimsy bubble mailers. Here's my
stupid question: is the 7" 45 or 33? I didn't see anything on the disc,
and when I played the HNIA side at 33, then switched to 45... I really
couldn't tell which was right.

or don't care about unsubbing info. ,
Includes Mr. Jones Address (was: Sytem help, please?)
i have a similar problem that i've been trying to solve!
(i'm posting this because the message asks me to)
recently my e-mail address changed from "[email protected]" to
"[email protected]." this
happened involuntarily, but i was forewarned and was told to unsub from
all listservers before the change occurred... of course i didn't. i was
subbed onto about 5 lists. i successfully unsubbed from four but wasn't
able to get a hold of anyone at 4ad-l who could help...
i'm still getting forwarded mail from my is2 account, but the forwarding
system will eventually stop and i don't want to cause a big flood of
returned mail to the 4ad list... i've tried reaching the listowner, and of
course i've tried unsubbing from my is4 account. unfortunately there is
no way to get back into my is2 account.
so here's a similar problem...what do i do?

For those of you (like myself) who live in the seattle area & do not
have direct access to a copy of the promo for dcd's spiritchaser, there
is a way to hear it!
I was wandering around tower in Bellevue the other day when I noticed a
photocopy of the cover of the new album pasted to the cd rack. I
reached out to pull it down when I noticed it was connected to one of
those listening station thingies. Imagine my surprise! In Bellevue!
Get over there & put those unsanitary headphones on & take a listen!
The station is sneakily placed in Rock CD's above the M's.

Is the split 7" the same as the HNIA 7" that is supposed to be coming
around soon (now that the art work is done)? Or are they two seperate 7"s??

It might be worth assuming they have e-mail problems of some sort, but it
would be wise to call them if possible. If that doesn't work, contact
their postmaster; I hope you saved all your correspondence. No provider
will allow businesses to commit fraud using their disc space, and a good
yell from the postmaster always gets someone's attention. Realistically,
someone's probably just had a hard week and flaked out a bit. e-mail is a
weird way to do things and I've had some people fuck up my order and not
get back to me, only to totally come through and be cool later on. It's
an odd dynamic and probably a bad idea to burn a bridge you don't know is
rotten. EAR/Rational once failed to respond to me for two weeks, and they
are the best record store I've ever done business with.

got some fresh news about radio performances in the US. they will be
playing 3-4 songs on these listed (but not totally confirmed) radio
stations. also a chance that the contest will allow winners to attend
radio performance.
Hadn't spoken to Robin in a while, so his accent kinda threw me off with
some of these call letters. please correct me if i get some of these call
letters a little mixed up (before i post it on the website).

This isn't really a 4AD question, but it seemed like the best place to
ask. I recently heard that Clockwork Orange was "still banned in the UK".
Could someone tell me what this might mean? The book or the movie? Either
way, it sounds strange, since the UK is hardly known for censorship.
This was brought up in reference to the "The Universal" video by Blur
(sorry!), which supposedly based its style on the film.

Its 45 rpm: listen to the vocals in the second part of the HNIA track.
I have to admit though that the first part of the track sounds better when
you play it at 33 rpm.

It's the same.

A Clockwork Orange isn't actually *banned* in the UK by 'the powers that
be'. Stanley Kubrick himself withdrew the film in Britain because of the
outcry the film's sexual violence caused at the time. I believe he had
death threats. So blame the director - or those who threatened him...
still, I suppose you could argue that the threats amount to censorship,
if by a circuitous route. But the film was granted a certificate for
theatrical release in Britain.
BTW, the much missed Scala cinema in London closed largely as a result of
showing the film without permission...

okay, here goes nothing.
I heard 1 song, "scream", by a band called "nut" and I really want
to know more about them. more to the point, I really want to listen to
more of their music. I have already tried all of my usual resources
so you listies are my only hope. ( except puting "have you seen this band"
posters on milk bags. do they REALLY do that in the states?)
anyway. if one of you experts with great connections ( hey, there's
no harm in a little buttering when you ask a favour from someone)
could track down this band, you won't be dissappointed. it's beautiful.
at least, the one song I heard was.

I've now recompiled the mam(m)oth ps eyesore 4AD discography. It's
an 8Mb gzipped PostScript file; 30Mb unpacked and 150 pages long.
It doesn't take that long to print it -- most of those 30Mbs are

recently I heard a band called "the make up" and I understand
that they represent a trend of alternative christian music
called gospel yeh, yeh which is spreading from washington D.C.
can anyone shed some light on this? what is the music like?
what's the dogma? (if different from "normal" christianity)
what bands fit in the category ? (other then make up)
listies from the D.C area should know all about this.
thanks

I am certainly not interested in starting a theology debate

Admittedly I've only listened to my copy of the Make-Up album a coupla times, an
even at that, those listens were cursory at best, which might explain the fact t
at
I have yet to pick up on this "gospel yeh yeh" thing even if the Second Coming w
re
to have happened in the middle of Side Two. That said, large parts of the album
did remind me of an odd hybrid of good ole-fashioned punk rawk with a goodly amo
nt
of revivalist James Brown whoopin'n'yellin', but again, the gospel element has y
t
to hit me full on.
Groovy hairdo's nonetheless, don't you think?
Anyway, isn't there an indie band called Soul Coughing whose schtick is doing ol
gospel numbers Jon Spencer style?
On a more thislisty angle, has any lucky soul out there picked up the new album
y
Trembling Blue Stars (the new "project" of Bobby Wratten of Field Mice and North
rn
Picture Library fame)? Reviews, recommendations, discouragements, raves, or
slander, anyone? :)
Cheers,

On http://www.imusic.com/reviews/scheer.html you will find this:
Scheer Infliction (4AD) by: Miss Molly
Inflict Me With Your Artwork
Okay, so even if the gruesome, stitched up, bunched up, pocky-looking flesh
on the cover leaves something to be desired - like maybe a big fat bandage
to cover it up - the music inside's not bad. Vocally, singer Audrey
Gallagher manages a Sundays-Juliana Hatfield-Bjorkesque sound. Combine that
with music that is guitar-driven, heavy and melodic, and it becomes clear
why the term "pop metal" has been bandied about so much when talking about
this band.
Produced by Head (PJ Harvey's "Dry") and mixed by Spike Drake (Pet Shop
Boys, New Order) the tracks on Infliction range from hard-driving, thrusting
numbers like "Shea," "Howling Boy" and "Wish You Were Dead," to slower,
flowing tunes like "Sad Loved Girl," "Goodbye" and the remarkably
Sundays-ish "Babysize." And, as seems to be the fashion these days, there is
even an eleventh "secret" track - a stripped down "Demon" that makes for an
interesting contrast to the earlier metalized version.
Apparently the band members have described their sound as "Pantera in
bedroom slippers." As for me? I'd say they're more like White Zombie in a
silk robe.
----- yeah right...
Secret eleventh track???? I've got the UK cd, or is she talking about the
vinyl version?
