wait, what? Big D did a split with melt banana? i've got to get my hands on that. what label did that?
past days selections for blazing, reading and writing my column: DILLINGER ESCAPE PLAN-miss machine cd MIKA MIKO-c.y.s.l.a.b.f. LP CHARLES BRONSON-youth attack! 10" TUESDAY-bright light 7" GET DESTROYED!- s/t 7" PROPAGANDHI- less talk, more rock LP
Akercocke - Choronzon Leather Nun - Slow Death 7'' Steve Reich - Music for 18 Musicians The Gerogerigegege / Bastard Noise - Split 7'' Agata - Spike and *cough* Scorpions - Rock You Like a Hurricane.
Aussie female pop-rock goodness from the 90s - The Clouds. Just been looking online - two of the bandmembers have gotten back together as "The girls from the clouds". Of course, being indie it's going to be hard to find a mp3 purchase.
Hip Hop fix? Someone recommended Greydon Square a few weeks back. Intelligent hip hop. Outside of his music, he's an Atheist who has served in Iraq and done a undergraduate field of study in Physics.
SL is distributed in the UK by Monotreme Records, whose 'Kim' is always really nice n helpful: http://www.monotremerecords.com/ I encountered them via 65DaysofStatic, a beat combo Mr Ellis turned me on to (at a distance).
