Tipsy, do you have much familiarity with the earl(y/ier) Siltbreeze catalog? If you like the pretty moments of the U.S. Girls LP, which I love, you may also be interested in things like the UN LP and the early Charalambides LPs on Siltbreeze.
I will make ANYONE a 'best of siltbreeze' tape.

I'm going out to see Pigeons in a few minutes, who would be a perfect fit on a bill including U.S. Girls & UN.Pigeons LP is one of my favorite LPs of uh, 2008? or was it 09? Great record.
― ian, Friday, 26 March 2010 02:22 (fourteen years ago) link
i would love that tbh. i have one charalambides album, but i'm not sure if it's earlier or later. but yeah i'm a big fan of this latter-day siltbreeze stuff, would like to hear more of the older stuff.

the c&b 7" (cat & bells club) on siltbreeze is nice. essential for shadow ring completists, or wannabe completists like me who can't afford a copy of "city lights."
― John Disk & The Fetus People (GOTT PUNCH II HAWKWINDZ), Friday, 26 March 2010 03:06 (fourteen years ago) link
City Lights isn't even THAT expensive, you know. Do you need a tape of it?The Shadow Ring material I can't afford: CD on Corpus Hermeticum, picture disc 7"
will put together something for you, tipsy.
― ian, Friday, 26 March 2010 15:18 (fourteen years ago) link
Well, I gave up on City Lights when I started seeing copies going for $60 plus, I just don't think there are many records worth that... I've already got MP3s of it, though. Oh, and I forgot about "Wax Work Echoes," that one's impossible to find.

$60 seems high. Got my copy for $40, but.. you know, i'll tape it for you if you want.
ilx user 'ilxor' i got your e-mail and i will assemble a tape & send copies to both you & tipsy. give me time, cuz i am a lazy person.

i've won a couple records from gr@h@am l@mbkin on ebay, can't even remember which ones they were at this point, but I've kept the handwritten "thanks, rob!" notes that he wrote and included in the package

― Stormy Davis, Saturday, 27 March 2010 06:11 (fourteen years ago) link
Dude, I bought records from him and I still have the emails in my hotmail. Also, the hair I found in the package, though that might've been Adris Hoyos'.

Can anyone here tell me if Fabulous Diamonds' Los Angeles show is still going ahead? Echo Curio (where it is supposed to be) got shut down by LAPD.
― ralph NAGLer (admrl), Wednesday, 17 November 2010 20:58 (thirteen years ago) link
i don't know, but if you go, please check out my friends Pigeons! They are doing the whole tour with fab diamonds.
― not everything is a campfire (ian), Wednesday, 17 November 2010 21:27 (thirteen years ago) link
Yes, I read about Pigeons. I want to go.

Both bands will be performing down here at UCI on Friday as well...

Protest. Point out this is more important.

Anyway an e-mail went out from Metal Rouge saying the Echo Curio show is in fact on -- so go!

just discovered siltbreeze through shadow ring
dead c and charalambides, very fine music.

Hey ian, got a hold of Pigeons/Fabulous Diamonds earlier -- Clark's a friendly guy!
― Ned Raggett, Friday, 19 November 2010 21:57 (thirteen years ago) link
And I can further report that both bands are all great folks, and put on good live shows too. Do what I did and give 'em a place to stay when they pass through your town. (In fact, anyone in Phoenix reading this thread? They're heading there now.)
― Ned Raggett, Saturday, 20 November 2010 18:45 (thirteen years ago) link
Clark & Wednesday are super sweet folks. I might start playing drums for that band when they get back. </braggin>

Ha I've only heard a few of those as well. I've got that Radio Free Europe single but that's about it. Would like to hear that mix, is it live or can you download it?
― The Eyeball Of Hull (Colonel Poo), Saturday, 24 September 2011 00:36 (twelve years ago) link
punk, sheesh. imo siltbreeze was a better label before the re-boot, when they released more abstract and psychedelic music. but srsly i have no room for complaint--put out records by pretty much all my fave bands of the nineties.
― one dis leads to another (ian), Saturday, 24 September 2011 02:05 (twelve years ago) link

Also there's a new Mount Carmel?
