yes! long time no hear. i’d assumed the buggers were in semi-retirement. but! new material from my favourite concrètists / typeset fetishists. this is kinda playful, kinda pretty. just a shame there’s nothing to untangle, unwrap, uncork with aac’s…

blaze foley: clay pigeons (secret seven)

Leave a Comment Posted by on 28/11/2011

in terms of song as summation, of man / myth, lucinda williams’ drunken angel nails it. buncha verses that get to the core of blaze foley and his fucked cosmology (but hell could have been written about van zandt or hank williams, steve earle or johnny cash in the depths of their respective artistic highs/personal [...]

on a related note, the new haunted house record on northern spy is something special.

mattin: exquisite corpse

Leave a Comment Posted by on 21/11/2011

detourn yourself! this shrieks. debord’s like a fucking spectre hanging over me just now. letterists got a fist in my ass working me like a ventriloquists dummy. yup mattins’ back. reductionally, indulging the destructive/restrictive rockist impulses of billy bao with a spewy fervour not seen since… okay not the last billy bao record (urban disease) [...]

2 Comments Posted by on 20/11/2011

jesus this is messy. three chords and a 4/4 beat taken apart with a claw hammer and left to scab itself back together. sneers of empty postgrunge acoustic and new wave rock und roll battling through a fucked a.m. radio miasma. a howl of backwards masked guitar, thrift store keyboard presets and overdriven machine klank [...]

wolf eyes / pbk: rabid

Leave a Comment Posted by on 18/11/2011

lost (kinda) wolf eyes / pbk collaboration based around david cronenberg’s film. not really *wet* enough to work in that context but a crack(l)ing listen nonetheless. get it here

Leave a Comment Posted by on 16/11/2011

got sent this video after making reference to catherine christer hennix (both involved in last years instal festival). by an odd coincidence i appear towards the end demanding the fucker sing a song or do something other than read off a piece of bloody paper. a rum affair all in all and i recall being [...]

wounded knee: house music (gerry loves records)

1 Comment Posted by on 15/11/2011

i’ve become fascinated by the voice again recently. dylan nyoukis dragged out of foosty shelves, mattin’s new rockist record pieced together starting with vocals, the fuss over lou reed croakling on lulu, my ever-present love for tim eriksen. so i guess now’s as good a time as any to barely mention drew wright again. s’weird given the [...]

metallica and lou reed: lulu (vertigo)

1 Comment Posted by on 11/11/2011

a convergence of masquerading annoyances this week: dead copy/filler as journalism, cut ‘n’ paste press releases as reviews, composite thinking as discussion, prewritten reviews as criticism… feel like i’m trapped in the belly of metacritic and the aggregator is bleeding to death… criticism by consensus? meh. mashing a buncha stuff together into one amorphous nonopinion.

first listen: chewy, pleasant, airy, hollow. a liminal taste somewhere between the artificial handbag tang of irn bru and the unknowable umami. hearing: moist finger tips rubbing euclidean shapes on crystal glass rims. hiccups of insects. somewhere / something green and dewy to throw slow geometric shapes at / to. after a while you realise [...]
