is this still holding up for people? i dont really get the urge to listen to it anymmore.
― Michael B, Thursday, 25 August 2011 15:55 (twelve years ago) link
yeah I listening to it just last weekend, classic stuff imo
"guillotine" will forever sound great booming from a car stereo, those bass rolls increasing pressure as the song progresses and the stuttering needle noise at the end never fail to satisfy
― hello I love you but I've chosen darkness my old friend (Edward III), Thursday, 25 August 2011 16:02 (twelve years ago) link
i have been listening to this almost every day all summer
― strongo hulkington's ghost dad, Thursday, 25 August 2011 16:03 (twelve years ago) link
but then i've also been listening to big black and '82-'85 swans every day, so it's just been that kinda summer
― strongo hulkington's ghost dad, Thursday, 25 August 2011 16:04 (twelve years ago) link

― hello I love you but I've chosen darkness my old friend (Edward III), Thursday, 25 August 2011 16:16 (twelve years ago) link

well i mean to be honest e, i listen to "angry" shit when i'm in a good mood, too. and so.
― strongo hulkington's ghost dad, Thursday, 25 August 2011 16:17 (twelve years ago) link
they did a house show last weekend that apparently was totally killer, several of my jaded 30-something friends proclaimed it the best show they've seen all year, which i missed because i was sick.

― remembrance of schwings past (gbx), Thursday, 25 August 2011 16:37 (twelve years ago) link
yeah , it was really fun. Don't know about best I've seen, but definitely the hottest and sweatiest. Fire code probably took a beating too, an earthquake would have killed everyone in the room.

Absolutely loving this mixtape/record whatever. Easily my favorite thing in a long time.

Mark, I strongly suspect my liking for both acts (and Dalek, for that matter) is far from a coincidence.
