Uncle Acid & The Deadbeats - Blood Lust (One of the best rock albums this year)

I bought the CD for $12 (10 euros) from Svart.
It has been on steady rotation in my car since I got it a few months ago. Early November?

it is way early LBI; one of the things that makes me happy about Blood Lust making top 10 is that as far as token rock/metal albums go, it really is a super-hip choice. Outside of some timy doom/stoner blogs and boards, and ILX, their exposure is nil, and any blip they make in the larger culture (Quietus end of year wrap-up, a few stray votes in the P&J) can be traced back to this board...

Yeah, that's definitely true Drugs A. Do you agree they have the potential to be this decade's QOTSA? It really feels like they can put a festival audience under their spell like that band. Love ILM for bringing attention to this band. WE WERE FIRST! <3

DFFD was before ILM, and DFFD was unlikely to be the first.

love this, wish i'd heard it before i voted. would have been top 3 for me!

I tried to sign up for an account with DFFD; they never got back with me!

You aren't kvlt enough I guess.

you probably are better off!

i think i have a DFFD login from around whenever the SL board went down. haven't used it in years though.

any blip they make in the larger culture (Quietus end of year wrap-up, a few stray votes in the P&J) can be traced back to this board...

Classic Rock magazine put them on a covermount CD in 2010

As far as I'm aware that was on my recommendation... so ILX's pride remains intact!

people on what.cd were going nuts over this long before this thread was made

good for people on what.cd

as i said earlier other boards and blogs were going nuts before i created this thread in the hope i could bring it to the wider attention of ilx

You've been into Uncle A since 2010 Doran?

Hmmmm. I wouldn't like to bet money on it. Maybe, maybe not...

Now that I've written it down it suddenly seems implausible.

I'm just glad I'm into them now.

Regardless of who discovered them firstn my main point is that for a representative metal album, Blood Lust is just a really fresh & ahead-of-the-curve choice.

Pitchfork haven't even bothered to cover them.

Of course not. It's not on Southern Lord, or a Waka Flocka mixtape.

Been really liking this album lately. It's just the right combination of heavy & catchy at points.

got any copies in the shop?

cd that is, obv you want have the rise above lps

*wont

Sold out right now because I played it and people bought it without ever having even heard of it before! Back in next week though.

Always the best feeling that...

"I will now sell five copies of The Three EPs by The Beta Band..."

hah it's nuts when people do that. Didn't think it happened in this day and age. How much you selling it for?

It wasn't cheap; £12.99 if I remember rightly. Yeah, that kind of thing still happens about once a week or so.

do you guys take orders over the phone?

We certainly do. Post things out 6 days a week.

ahh cool. I must remember that. If you still have any of the cds at the end of the month I'll buy one

avowed uncle acid hater ez snappin voted for something else despite being in the wrong country to listen to 6music

yep.

hehe you must really dislike them

Not at all, actually. As I've said what seems like a million times, they're decent and I think they have a good shot going forward to be much more than decent. Just not there yet, based on this album.

And I voted for Death Grips who honestly excite me.

who won?

nyan cat

sold out already??

nvm

"Ths edition will go sale Tuesday 26th June at 4pm UK time"

How much longer are they going to milk these limited runs? Tbh, kind of fed up with all the bullshit surrounding this band. Give people a proper chance to pay for your music, eh?

change the 405 in the link above to 404 for the ultralimited clear vinyl edition

that was farcical. bet i get an email saying im too late for clear. site was slow as shite

lol i ordered the clear version but my shipping region didn't process to the US correctly, which means the order will be canceled. i did get in an order for the black vinyl.
