...PinPink Anvil s formula appears to be to take some already existing horror / B movie theme and run it through some effects processors and add delay and noise. On top of these parts, there are lots of audio snippets from 1950s-sounding random instructional movies that you d have to watch in junior high school. EXPOSE

....Everybody does it. In the shower, in the car, around the campfire. At one time or another you, me and everyone's cousin have sung a capella. It doesn't always sound good -- believe me, you don't want to be share a long trip with a Barry Manilow fan and no car stereo -- but even when it does, as an art, as an expression deemed worthy for mass consumption, a capella music is fading away.POPMATTERS

PINK FLAG...Perhaps the most original debut album to come out of the first wave of British punk...
Pink Flag
's enduring influence pops up in hardcore, post-punk, alternative rock, and even Britpop, and it still remains a fresh, invigorating listen today: a fascinating, highly inventive rethinking of punk rock and its freedom to make up your own rules...

There are elements of prog, Archie Shepp, Frank Zappa's most "gremlin-jazz" moments, a little Moondog, a taste of Igor Stravinky, Soft Machine, Krautrock, Toru Takemitsu, Eric Dolphy, and the instrumentally Magic Banded side of Don Van Vleit all mixed in with found sounds, chaos and grace" [George Parson, Dream Magazine]

disc 1
disc 2


''The Tell Tale Signs of Earworm represents the first 3 or 4 years of the most innovative label in the UK. Over the years Earworm has been at the forfront of the bedroom indie scene and this double CD contains previously released tracks from long deleted 7"s alongside tracks that would have been put onto wax if there was more money available.

Of the tracks on the first disk, Avrocar stand out with their beautiful, epic, electro pop. Elsewhere Maps Of Jupiter brew up a fuzzy storm with 'Wait' whilst France's Tank travel the 70's rawk route.

Disk two's highlights are tracks from The Minders, Southall Riot and Magnetic North Pole.

All in all an excellent record''

Before and After Science is really a study of "studio composition" whereby recordings are created by deconstruction and elimination: tracks are recorded and assembled in layers, then selectively subtracted one after another, resulting in a composition and sound quite unlike that at the beginning of the process. Despite the album's pop format, the sound is unique and strays far from the mainstream. Eno also experiments with his lyrics, choosing a sound-over-sense approach. When mixed with the music, these lyrics create a new sense or meaning, or the feeling of meaning, a concept inspired by abstract sound poet Kurt Schwitters (epitomized on the track "Kurt's Rejoinder," on which you actually hear samples from Schwitters' "Ursonate"). Before and After Science opens with two bouncy, upbeat cuts: "No One Receiving," featuring the offbeat rhythm machine of Percy Jones and Phil Collins (Eno regulars during this period), and "Backwater." Jones' analog delay bass dominates on the following "Kurt's Rejoinder," and he and Collins return on the mysterious instrumental "Energy Fools the Magician." The last five tracks (the entire second side of the album format) display a serenity unlike anything in the pop music field. These compositions take on an occasional pastoral quality, pensive and atmospheric. Cluster joins Eno on the mood-evoking "By This River," but the album's apex is the final cut, "Spider and I." With its misty emotional intensity, the song seems at once sad yet hopeful. The music on Before and After Science at times resembles Another Green World ("No One Receiving") and Here Come the Warm Jets ("King's Lead Hat") and ranks alongside both as the most essential Eno material

blown away. the physical force of nature w/emotional aftermath. all the complexities. moved the stereo into the bathroom and locked myself with in there with some cheap ass beer and watched the cables snake across the floor, the speakers push themselves into the corners, shafts of light and leafy shadows breathing on the walls, shit falling off the sink, candle flames shaking. beautiful.

Green! was recorded using only an acoustic guitar, a melodica, a flute, some programming and Clem's sweet voice. This lo-fi folky approach was only hinted on his previous releases, and it's maybe because it's simplicity that it leaves you smiling, fulfilled and wanting more of this green love.

Space Is The Place

Category: By the bug

Even today, in an era of science and satellites, the mystery of the universe has lost
none of its magical appeal. We can close our eyes and dream of the future,
wondering whether a starlit planet might soon replace a tropical island, the Riviera,
or a distant mountain lodge as the ideal spot for a romantic holiday. Or, with the aid
of the music in this album, we can drift into the future's lovemist with Les Baxter
and make a spaceliner escapade by earthlight, tongue safely fastened in cheek.

Tub Ring's Drake Equation manages to come very close to creating something that is charting on undiscovered waters. Vaudeville punk rock with an industrial spin and a pop sense, with even a bit of hardcore to the mix, Tub Ring's crazed sound pays off big on this album. One listen to this album and your jaw will drop

The Vessel, second Broadway Project album, sees Berridge and vocalist Richard Palmer exploring further the bleak atmospheres of Compassion. While the first album was mostly instrumental, with occasional vocal contributions, The Vessel expands on Berridge’s original cinematic soundscapes, and Palmer’s contribution is nothing short of impressive.

lsd march

By the bug


Important Records have been doing an exemplary job of bringing the best in contemporary Japanese rock music to a wider audience of late - not just in the usual Acid Mothers/Kawabata Makoto vein, but with this week's one-two punch of Suishou No Fune and LSD March releases. Constellation Of Tragedy is, as its title suggests, not the most upbeat of albums, with the magical opener 'Aka I Yoru' making for an especially mournful way to start things off. It's simple combination of what sounds like a broken music box, gently strummed guitar and amplifier hiss serves as a humble backdrop for Shinsuke Michishita's world-weary voice. From here the album gradually builds itself (via the beautifully recorded, yet oddly cobbled together pop stylings of 'Musuu No Taiyo' and 'Kimi Wa Tengoku' up to a moment of unexpectedly bombastic psych-rock in the form of 'Moeru Pyramid' a primitive fuzz blast of bluesy guitar solos and hazy late '60s riffing that flails and flounders its way into the closing harmonium drone piece 'Kanashii Seiza'. Awesome(boomkat)

Data 80

Category: By the bug

"Force Tracks goes beyond what you've ever heard before by introducing the new pop-house project orchestrated by renown house producer Hakan Lidbo. Data 80 is a mainframe for the past, present and future. Man-machine meets the fire of 70's funk, 80's trash and classic house. Picture an icon that has built itself up from the elements of the finest performers of our time; Kraftwerk, Ziggy Stardust, Prince and Michael Jackson come to mind.

liquid photography

liquid
Imaginary soundtrack music has always been one of my favourite types of instrumental music and Joss' Liquid Photography plays to this temperament in the listener. Each section of Liquid Photography has its own personal narrative structure: start, conflict, climax and resolution. These songs are self-contained emotional roller coasters: once you’re on, you ride it all the way. Any other way just short-changes the experience. Intriguing.

The seven songs here are a strong, smart combination of pummelling riffage and carefully-planned changes, something like a Ruins' 45 played at 33 – or a more complex updating of Godflesh.
