The Virgin Prunes, If I Die I Die. Gavin Friday's archetypal early-80s glam-industrial group, Mute have just reissued their back catalogue, nicely remastered. I haven't heard this for nigh-on 20 years, and it's still pretty good.

zorn the bribe - just arrived from the states it's a bit silly really.

John Lord & the Hoochie Coochie Men, initial spin is proving to be rather pleasing

 

[Mr.C]

Nile - In Their Darkened Shrines. Sublimely good, ancient-egypt themed death metal. Very good recording, the blast beats would provide a hefty challenge to any system. 'Brutal' I think is the word commonly used to describe this stuff...brutal indeed! :slayer:

 

[My name is Ron]

Kraftwerk, Electric Cafe (of course, that should be a sophisticated coffee- and-ciabatta European 'cafey' and not a British egg-and-chips caff, but I can't seem to get the accent on the e).

Far from their best, but still better than most. Boing tschak boom indeed.

The Virgin Prunes, If I Die I Die.

I always used to be asked to play "Dave-Id is dead" when I was a dj (many years ago!)..
After that I put it on every week as it completely emptied the floor apart from one complete crazed loon leaping about In A Dark Way..

Anyway, today was rock-ish:
PiL - Metal Box
Magazine - Correct Use of Soap
AC/DC - If you want blood (still a peculiarly shrill recording, with only some very deep bass..)
AudioSlave - whatever it's called, but it's a darned sight better recorded than If You Want Blood!
Albert Collins - The Ice Man Cometh
Porcupine Tree - can't remember the name either..

I find bad weather means much more music!

ATM it's Sonic Youth, Sonic Nurse. I have an irrational dislike of Thurston Moore, have never been that convinced by SY, and wish Kim Gordon would STFU and stop trying to sing, but this has some nice intricate layered guitar on it.

Radio 1, for the first time in years. An evening devoted to John Peel. The Damned's "New Rose" is on at the moment, f*cking ace.

-- Ian

And now they're playing "Borstal Breakout". Almost making me feel young again.
