What's the last record you listened to?

The last album I listened to was Slovo's one (dunno what it's called but they were good at Glasters). The Electric Six one is great too by the way

 

Essential Logic - Fanfare in the Garden

New 2 CD compilation (on the Kill Rock Stars label) of top post-punk chick Lora Logic's group. (Lora was the sax player in X-Ray Spex.) Collects most of her recorded output, including all of the excellent "Beat Rhythm News" album, and the singles. Spiky, angular, funky, lo-fi, funny, passionate. A splendid record.

a large consignment just hit the doormat from amazon this morning. itcd at the moment is futureshock's phantom theory after hearing them on the radio (from glastonbury i think). not quite psy trance,too slow, but it's trippy in a banging kind of way nonetheless. electric six is up next and then some u-ziq and squarepusher after mo's suggestions.
cheers

It sounds like McAloon's approach to his latest album is quite unconventional and experimental, using snippets from the airwaves for spoken lyrics accompanied by a variety of instruments. While the sonic landscape may be intriguing initially, it seems to lack the punch or boldness you were hoping for. It's interesting how artists evolve and explore new territories, but sometimes it's the raw energy and intensity of classics like Albert Ayler's "Witches and Devils" that really resonate. Enjoy your dive into Ayler's work for that powerful contrast!
