Maybe that can be my review. "Not sure about this MAlkmus record yet..."
I can't seem to type the name MAlkmus without capitalising the second letter.

I heard nothing about this in 2013. The conjunction of "Hamid Drake" and "Balochistan" would have definitely gotten my attention.

The title track to that nick cave song feels like it's been with me for my entire life, even though I think I first heard it (I think) a few months ago. Seriously it feels like I've always known the song. Such a beautiful melody

― Burt Stuntin (Hurting 2), Friday, 14 February 2014 05:05 (ten years ago) link
that album seems pretty amazing but i got to the song about how he's not going to be able to live when his mom dies and i just really couldn't go on, gonna have to wait until summer to try again
― sXe & the banshees (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 14 February 2014 17:55 (ten years ago) link
yeah that one is a little weird inasmuch as he seems oddly close to his mom for a middle-aged man. But it's still a pretty sweet song. And the song about his dad is awesome.
― Burt Stuntin (Hurting 2), Friday, 14 February 2014 18:07 (ten years ago) link
no it's a great song it's just his lyrics on this are so kind of matter of fact and raw that it made me think of my mom dying and i got all sad
― sXe & the banshees (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 14 February 2014 18:13 (ten years ago) link
Yeah those songs are definitely honest and sweet. He said in an interview his mother thought the song about her was the best gift she'd ever received.

oh yeah I know what you mean. I tried to listen to a couple songs from it at work today and when I got to the line in Song Remains the Same about the friend dying in the moped accident and the girl who sat in front of him who died and was forgotten I just had to shut it off so I didn't break down in my office. My grandma is also about to go into hospice.

Still loving skronk-funkateers Guerilla Toss 2013 debut album Gay Disco, and they've got a couple '14 EPs streaming: Smack The Brick, out later this month: https://soundcloud.com/nnatapes/01-smack-the-brick?in=nnatapes/sets/guerilla-toss-smack-the-brick-cassette Current fave: "Billy Blood Idol."Even better maybe (a little faster, more momentum overall, though they've spoiled me): last summer's 367 Equalizer, ltd. ed., maybe OOP, but still here for now:https://soundcloud.com/infinity-cat/cookie-guerilla-toss?in=infinity-cat/sets/infinity-cat-cassette-series-guerilla-toss Can't pick one!Both sets are 4 tracks each, but those are enough to keep the homefries burning while waiting for next alb (get the first)

Also, as mentioned at some length on Robert Wyatt thread, letting the 2-disc comp w same title as new bio, Different Every Time carry meee away. As mentioned at some length on Richard Thompson thread, big news for me re The Thompson Family Album is how good Linda sounds, despite long-reported vocal problems, she's the one on here projecting charisma. RT and others contribute some good songs and playing: no masterpieces, but at least half are keepers, whole thing might be a sleeper.Both albums still streaming on npr 'til their 11-18 release(better get started on the Wyatt):http://www.npr.org/2014/11/09/361384516/first-listen-robert-wyatt-different-every-timehttp://www.npr.org/2014/11/09/361384683/first-listen-thompson-family

it's not just a historical curiosity, being written years before in C. it's actually perfect. put it on and listen to it throughout a quiet afternoon. i've always appreciated In C as a historical document and as an idea. November explores the ramifications of In C before it was even written
