He also played guitar in Comets on Fire.

Okay, now in the right mind. I can't believe I blanked on Ben Chasny. I would love to see these guys live.
― filthy dylan, Sunday, 11 April 2010 16:03 (fourteen years ago) link
fucking Barden's. what a bum choice.
― gnarly sceptre, Sunday, 11 April 2010 17:33 (fourteen years ago) link
this might be my record of the year so far! i haven't heard a lot of new records, I'll admit, but it is pretty awesome. They should just get together and record an album every couple of months.
― tylerw, Sunday, 11 April 2010 18:17 (fourteen years ago) link
otm, let's get to work ppl.
― Snop Snitchin, Sunday, 11 April 2010 20:57 (fourteen years ago) link
I want to hear this
― van smack, Thursday, 6 May 2010 15:00 (thirteen years ago) link
I got the promo this week!It's pretty damn good.Highlight is definitely the fifteen minute mellow closer, Plain of Jars. Kind of an Ex-Cocaine vibe on that song.I'll be looking for it on vinyl once it's out, for sure.Definitely had me thinking of Sun City Girls, but it has its own merits, for sure.
― Trip Maker, Thursday, 6 May 2010 15:04 (thirteen years ago) link
Yeah, got it as well and pretty much what Trip M sez.
― Ned Raggett, Thursday, 6 May 2010 15:20 (thirteen years ago) link
yeah, i think the closer is my fave as well, though some of the more abrasive/heavier stuff is great too. they really sound like they are abusing their amps on some of these! in a good way.
― tylerw, Thursday, 6 May 2010 15:21 (thirteen years ago) link
There is a healthy amount of feedback.This has "SEE IT LIVE" written all over it, imo.
― Trip Maker, Thursday, 6 May 2010 15:26 (thirteen years ago) link
yeah no doubt. press release says they have US dates booked, but there aren't any listed on Drag City's site last time i looked.
― tylerw, Thursday, 6 May 2010 15:30 (thirteen years ago) link
They are playing in a hella cute wooden church in my locale in a bit less than a month and I have active expectations of it ruling

i wanna hear this so bad
― rizzx, Thursday, 6 May 2010 15:46 (thirteen years ago) link
I'm majorly pumped that this 3'o got together. They're all amazing intuitive musicians with the capability to blow minds. Corsano's work w/ Flaherty, Flaherty/Yeh, David Grubbs, Flower, Jandek, and others is mostly all unfuckwithable.
― ImprovSpirit, Thursday, 6 May 2010 16:12 (thirteen years ago) link
I missed the first time they played here. Hopefully they announce a tour in the US soon.
― van smack, Thursday, 6 May 2010 16:17 (thirteen years ago) link
i hope they do a euro tour too. on a sidenote, anyone heard the new album on esp corsano did with paul dunmall?
― sonderangerbot, Thursday, 6 May 2010 16:21 (thirteen years ago) link
euro tour dates here: http://www.dragcity.com/artists/rangda
― tylerw, Thursday, 6 May 2010 16:22 (thirteen years ago) link
What did Corsano work with Grubbs on? Just curious.
― International Harvester Of Eyes (Jon Lewis), Thursday, 6 May 2010 17:50 (thirteen years ago) link
one song
― jaybabcock, Thursday, 6 May 2010 18:04 (thirteen years ago) link
Well... I was really sure thay had done at least one release together, but I'm having one hell of a time finding it. My bad.
― ImprovSpirit, Thursday, 6 May 2010 20:26 (thirteen years ago) link
ha, no, that's a link to a Rangda song. but i can't find anything on corsano's (immense!) discography page about it: http://www.cor-sano.com/hateddiscog.html

Son of a bitch! Knitting Factory Brooklyn just announced them for August 27th and I think I'm gonna be in Minnesota visiting my mom that week. God dammit!!!
― Felix Frankfurter, Man Of Justice (Jon Lewis), Thursday, 13 May 2010 15:16 (thirteen years ago) link
Tell your mom she needs to visit you for some fine modern music.
― Ned Raggett, Thursday, 13 May 2010 15:19 (thirteen years ago) link
My wife will murder me if we don't go to MN that week bcuz she needs her State Fair fix. I can only hope they announce a Turf Club date that week as well...
― Felix Frankfurter, Man Of Justice (Jon Lewis), Thursday, 13 May 2010 15:21 (thirteen years ago) link
think they're playing the MN state fair too.
― tylerw, Thursday, 13 May 2010 15:25 (thirteen years ago) link
Oh tyler why u braek hart, that is such a beautiful vision.
And at 3pm at the Miracle Of Birth Pavilion-- Zeni Geva!

Just picked up the vinyl + cd today. Just how I envisioned it to be - pure heavy chaotic bliss.

Out today, huh?

I'm guessing as a solid Six Organs fan and someone consistently getting into Sun City Girls as I come across their ridiculously OOP albums, I would be doing myself an immense disservice to not pick this up immediately?
― I just wish he hadn't adopted the "ilxor" moniker (ilxor), Tuesday, 18 May 2010 13:24 (thirteen years ago) link
correct.
really sucks that Touch & Go is gone, Drag City has shitty distribution now. My local store has been trying to get this into stock for the last week or so, unsuccessfully.
― bug holocaust (sleeve), Tuesday, 18 May 2010 13:38 (thirteen years ago) link
It wasn't "available" before today, though.
― Trip Maker, Tuesday, 18 May 2010 13:44 (thirteen years ago) link
Yeah, I've noticed it takes an extra week or two, sometimes, for Drag City stuff to show up on local shelves.
xp
― I just wish he hadn't adopted the "ilxor" moniker (ilxor), Tuesday, 18 May 2010 13:47 (thirteen years ago) link
Although I did see the Joanna Newsom album on shelves *before* release day... so maybe their distribution model is just fucked?
― I just wish he hadn't adopted the "ilxor" moniker (ilxor), Tuesday, 18 May 2010 13:48 (thirteen years ago) link
Looking forward to grabbing this gem!
― ImprovSpirit, Tuesday, 18 May 2010 15:03 (thirteen years ago) link
can anyone recommend any other good jams from the dragcity store since i'm already ordering?
― sonderangerbot, Tuesday, 18 May 2010 15:17 (thirteen years ago) link
the new Cave 12-inch is pretty killer
― tylerw, Tuesday, 18 May 2010 15:19 (thirteen years ago) link
A few excellent releases from last year:
Om - God Is GoodJim O'Rourke - The VisitorSix Organs - Luminous Night
― I just wish he hadn't adopted the "ilxor" moniker (ilxor), Tuesday, 18 May 2010 15:33 (thirteen years ago) link
the Helena Espvall & Masaki Batoh records are both excellent

Richard Bishop- The Freak Of Araby
would go nicely with the Rangda album
― Felix Frankfurter, Man Of Justice (Jon Lewis), Tuesday, 18 May 2010 15:57 (thirteen years ago) link
thanks guys! think i'm going with latest six organs, looks sweet
― sonderangerbot, Tuesday, 18 May 2010 16:18 (thirteen years ago) link
If it's not too late I fully recommend http://www.dragcity.com/products/empty-the-sun - Chasny in really schweeet acoustic mode (mostly [iirc]) and the novel that comes with it is kind of a blast too

Disagree. I love Rick Bishop to death... but this is, for lack of a better term, his "dinner party" album.

this record comes together for me more than the others but i'm not really sure why yet
― adam, Monday, March 14, 2016 9:57 AM (six months ago)
yeah I finally got Heretic's Bargain on LP and it is fantastic, but it's hard for me to articulate just what it is that made the previous one more disappointing - no wild parts? out of all the long epics I like "Hermetic Museum" the most, lots of variation and texture.
― sleeve, Friday, 16 September 2016 00:27 (seven years ago) link
has anyone heard the live 10"? are the versions different enough that it's worth getting?
― sleeve, Friday, 16 September 2016 00:28 (seven years ago) link
Man I haven't even heard the actual release/album yet, need to get on that.
― grandavis, Friday, 16 September 2016 13:32 (seven years ago) link
I know, I felt like I was totally late to it as well! A lot more surf guitar bouncy action and there's a pretty awesome 8-minute freakout with a long fadeout ending ("Hard Times Befall The Door-To-Door Glass Shard Salesman")
― sleeve, Friday, 16 September 2016 13:57 (seven years ago) link
yeah, it's good! especially love the long closer. was just listening to david grubbs' new one and there are actually some pretty rangda-y moments on the tracks with drummer eli keszler
― tylerw, Friday, 16 September 2016 14:10 (seven years ago) link
I haven't checked in on a Grubbs thing in forrrever. Mirror Repair remains one of my favorite records of the 90s.
