If you like the gloomy atmospheric end of things , Kode 9 and Spaceape's " Memories of the Future" is an amazing album.....recommended on here if I remember.

Pinch's " Underwater Dancehall" is very popular too. A bit too jolly for me.

Burial " Untrue ". Good for rainy evenings.

Mogwai - Batcat EP

One of leading, we-do-not-fear-experiments-but-we-love-postrock bands, this is it´s new three song ep, ´devil rides´ sounds like slow, more poppy joy division, beautiful haunting tragedy of a song.


The Bug - London ZOO

Pure fucking dubstep meets angry political ragga vocalists and sounds experiments by the man who made his first album with DJ Vadim called ´Tapping the Conversation´ as unnoficial soundtrack for Scorseese´s ´The Conversation´ early masterpiece starring Gene Hackman.


Venetian Snares - Huge Chrome Cylinder Unfolding

Idm at it´s best, breakcore headbanger. Very refreshing, very short.


Colleen - Everyone Alive Wants Answers

Beautiful, soft, melancholic and playful ambient heavily using looped samples. Very talented woman.


Current 93 - Birth Canal Blues

Apocalyptic folk. Scary and beautiful as the corpse Baudelaire fell into one morning. Listen enough and you´ll feel absinthe, dead children, lost love stories and total poverty bursting out of your eyes.


Have not enough time to write all down,
so the rest will come down quickly.

The Flashbulb - Binedump EP (IDM, Breakcore)
Face to Face - Best Of (Punk Rock, very poppy)
Patrick Wolf - Lycantrophy (Very talented, highly reccomended - wolves, folk, heart, experimental, great songwriter)
Antony and the Johnstons - I am a Bird Now (you probably know)
M83 - Before the Dawn Heals Us (listen to ´don´t save us from the flames´ and ´teenage angst´ on youtube. shoegaze at it´s best)
Mochipet - Microphonepet (sick hiphop with very dubstep oriented feeling. highly entertaining and witty, straight from one of best breakcore/idm producers)

Slightly, only slightly off-topic: Part 1 is a deserved classic, although not interviewing Fear -- or at least not including it in the final cut -- was a huge mistake. Their live performance is by far the most memorable: "Why do women have two holes so close to each other? So you can carry them like a six-pack!"

Part 3 was somewhat disappointing. Penelope Spheeris was so enamored with the gutterpunk community, she hardly connects with the music side of the "scene" at all. No amount of clever editing could hide the fact that these kids had very little to do with any music scene, mostly sticking to candy-colored, glue-propped hairstyles for purely aesthetic reasons. She also could have given more time to the obvious problems between the wheelchair bound punk with an apartment, and the homeless gutterpunks who ham up their relationship with him for the camera. Only a single shot of the poor man's disgusted reaction belies what had to be a much more complex relationship than Spheeris felt inclined to depict in the editing room.

To take it back on topic: I'm listening to Fear, Black Flag, and Negative Approach for the first time in awhile.]]> The Weekly Listening Thread (25 Aug 08) http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=3403&Focus=78838#Comment_78838 2008-08-26T11:57:44-07:00 2013-05-24T06:36:43-07:00 joe.distort http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/account.php?u=1173 Negative Approach word! they are playing FUCK YEAH FEST in los angeles this weekend with like 20 other bands of varying genre and around 10 comedians...i want to go so badly.

The thing about Bingham is that he's lived a hard life for real - that gives his songs a genuine truth that you don't find in a lot of "recording artists." His voice falls somewhere between middle period Dylan and Hiatt and his backup musicians are as kickass as they need to be. Chugging banjo, tasty peddle steel, the occasional snarly guitar cutting through and the wailing fiddle all complement Bingham's voice in ways that feel completely natural and right. And the rhythm section is as good as anything from Memphis or Nashville [or Motown, for that matter].

I'm also really enjoying all things The Mars Volta [think a hybrid of Devo and Captain Beefheart, filtered through The Grateful Dead].]]> The Weekly Listening Thread (25 Aug 08) http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=3403&Focus=78882#Comment_78882 2008-08-26T13:34:26-07:00 2013-05-24T06:36:43-07:00 ybm http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/account.php?u=3705 The Angels of Light - Entire Catalog I have been on a big Michael Gira kick the last several weeks.
