rolling time travel thread 2013 -> 1987 -> 1836 -> 3954

Ok, that one doesn't either -- anyway, both are Behold...the Arctopus live from a couple weeks back playing new material that sounds Flying Luttenbachers-esque even though Weasel apparently didn't write any of it

haven't listened to it all yet, but sounding good so far and they're great live - the devil album's finally out (comprising James Sedwards from Nought, Ben Waller from the Country Teasers and Sophie from Wetdog - on bandcamp here.

was really enjoying this until 'Girls Want You' which is one of the worst fucking things I've heard in my entire life. YOU'RE SO FUCKING CONFRONTATIONAL & TRANSGRESSIVE

take some drugs, think you're the goddamn velvet underground, toss off that abomination. hey it got its reaction though! it WORKED!

just got to this. must admit I don't hear it like that. it's definitely a continuation of the country teasers schtick of using the reductive/vicious inane to create cold disgust, holding the listener up to the morally repellent. that makes it sound more virtuous than it is - there's nothing virtuous here, which I always assume is the point. how acceptable it is as a method is a different matter, and saying "if you're saying there's nothing virtuous here, in what sense can it be called good?" opens up areas of aesthetics/moral responsibility of art that I tend to fudge, and which is probably getting a bit abstract or academic anyway for something which could probably rightly be termed puerile.

think the music generally sounds great tho (including on that track). sparse, bleak, hard.

it's also now in my head you bastard, which regardless of the rights and wrongs of the track, isn't exactly what I need, especially as when songs get in my head I tend to murmur the lyrics to myself in places like the supermarket, rising to low-level bawling when cycling into work.

actual lol @ s.e.e hipton's outsider house, whats realer than reel-to-reel?

theres lots of good stuff itt though, thanx bros. contributions for time and space: danse noir EPs, that (old-ish?) pete swanson record on type which seems kind of completely rad and 'club of no regrets' on forced nostalgia.

Something like Kreibabe by Foetus achieves brilliance by placing its horrifying moral perversions in the mouth of a narrator who is thus able to give them vulnerability - to psychologise them. This track is the sexual equivalent of a Hitler rally recording and is too much for me. I guess it's impressively, gnostically unpleasant.

haven't been keeping up but I wholly endorse the devil (the band as well as the interdimensional being)

blanche blanche blanche now on tour w/ guerilla toss

and by "now on tour" I mean in december, no issue for time travelers natch

Guerilla Toss killing it w/ noise-vomit stomp (A+ skronk dirge).

Cellular Chaos - Smothering Instinct: http://youtu.be/sLKjwy0B2oc
Cellular Chaos - Repeat: http://youtu.be/f8E7p6a9Oyo

I just got that Cellular Chaos album and it is really awesome

guerrilla toss playing NYC 2x this week, tonight at death by audio and tomorrow at silent barn, highly suggest you leave the hellhouse hellhouse

the devil could be AOTY for me

xp

the last time I was at Silent Barn I saw USAISAMONSTER roughly twenty years ago so I may take yr suggestion

ed schrader's music beat also on that bill, they're always value

sarahell OTM re: Cellular Chaos rec

dunno if anyone else on here is/was a Luttenbachers fan, but there are definitely riffs, tones, flourishes on the Cellular Chaos record that are reminiscent of The Void/Cataclysm era Luttenbachers

saw a weasel group in NYC the other week, S, and it was excellent.

the devil could be AOTY for me

yeah, I think it's really good.

Okay imago I'm not 100% sold on Discontinuities yet, but Romanticism is Ultimately Fatal is a killer track. Astounding!

not saying this invalidates your reaction but it's probably worth noting that this is a Kool Keith cover

btw Discontinuities takes imo a bit of time to warm up but by the third track all it does is melt face. Good find imago.

recommend the first track, a manic Neu jam swallowed by a surging dronewave at the seven-minute mark f/ tandem kraut/kosmische excess.

also, the hypnotically bleak Monotonprodukt 07 has been remastered, so I’m gonna drop this here why b/c it’s goddamn great:

Tanzen + Singen - http://youtu.be/JxVHALEd2qc

showing those fake technos what for

we enjoy all the fake technos

not new, but posting this here as imago is unfamiliar with Diamanda Galas:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SXgFpJRC3g4

crude: latter period scott walker atom-smashed into the the, but female

very, very good

still listening to her other stuff on youtube

mother of satan this is calling to some fairly deep & dark parts of me (greek cypriot holla)

always nice to see Monotonprodukt mentioned! but I only bought the 30y reissue last year and now there is another remaster for me to spend money on? how does it sound?

(tbh I've only played the 30y++ vinyl once on my not very good record deck and then I put it on my shelf to look nice while listening to the mp3s I had already, so I can't really say how that one sounds)

also I like fake technos, bring on all the fake technos. maybe it's time to resuscitate the imaginary fake techno project I had in my head a few years ago before getting sidetracked with doomed cohabitation attempts...

idk this sound like redundancy, the reissued 07 sounds fine but konrad whatever gotta get his korn

if you're gonna post diamanda on halloween c'mon

shit fuck you mislabeled youtube videos

or this nsfw treat... you want time travel? jump cut to me + hellhouse circa 1987 rolling around middletown NJ jamming this in the autovoiture

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XDAiAdok-MA

litanies of satan is fucking mindmelting. such an incredible discovery, ty ilx

the first one I posted is "wild women with steak knives" - the litanies of satan b-side

yeah I'm listening to the second one :P

it's good for getting rid of pesky roommates

xxxp

n/m the Monotonprodukt vinyl is from last year’s reissue which I now see is the third version of the rec since ’03 (I’m sure he has a Blu-Ray version in the pipeline, let’s not besmirch his compulsion).

APS, if yr living situation goes down the shitter you can always turn to the dependable glowing void of a DAW f/ all yr companionship needs (p. sure ~fake techno~ is the official aesthetic of professional shut-ins + freaks, don’t ask how I know this).

(E3 OTM, lol at The Divine Punishment as creep nostalgia)

awww The Plague Mass CD was one of my first gifts to my now-ex. I think I reclaimed it after we broke up. So good!

Osasto, rolled a few times down an embankment:

Basic House - B.G. Feathers: http://youtu.be/ZVwlB3qv2qs

been digging this la machine record, they were one of the great bass-n-drum combos providence coughed up in the late 90s

castle face reissued one of their cassettes and it's like the dub album chrome never made

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DCIVeBpOAt0

in other ancient cassette reissue news, rumor has it that evil acidhead, john mcbain's unearthly collaboration w/ ugly american greg chapman, will finally be released after 20+ years in the phantom zone

Connan Mockasin is back! His new album Caramel on Spotify. Um...I don't know how to describe him beyond 'fucking incredible wrong-sounding psych beauty' and that you have to hear him. First track is probably even weirder than anything else he's done

New BLANCHE BLANCHE BLANCHE also on Spotify, it's gonna be a weird evening :D

Mockasin was ok. BLANCHE BLANCHE BLANCHE is fucking amazing amazing amazing music amazing

I think Wooden Ball shades the new one, Breaking Mirrors, but for a band to have released two albums this good inside a year is frankly astonishing
