xp rushomancy: The most fun Chicago street name to guess you once lived on in terms of how Grubbs sings them IMO would be
"DREXXXXXELLLLLL"

(^ also, that Lula Cortes is great)

Been listening to a lot of XCX leading up to her new album coming out
Watching her P4K set led me to then rinse this song of hers

was just arguing w/ my 5yo boy bout whether lego ninjago gigurines wear gloves or have black hands
"keep your black hands out of my mouth"
best hnia for me love it

Ha!
"In Every Ford" was the first HNIA I heard, since it actually got a bit of airplay/playlisting on CFNY, the commercial alternative radio station here in Toronto, back in '93--I still have my cassette of it taped off the radio somewhere

Just listened to the new Oranssi Pazuzu earlier and now Kairon; IRSE! Ruination

Finnish hard rock from 1973 with a really piercing guitar tone.
Pretty fantastic.
NOt sure what has picked up directly from this. Think it could be a handy influence.
Hadn't listened to this in way too long. Rockadrome reissued this about 7 years ago and i had bee hoping to get a copy for a while before taht.One of several great semi obscure hard rock/heavy lps from taht era that are pretty necessary.

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/7ef5f4a9648c09062c5f23184369a2f9/2318060
Gal Costa's 3rd solo lp , not as out as the previous one Gal but pretty cool. Starts off pretty hard hitting goes a few other places including a cover of Caetano veloso's london , London recorded in solidarity with him being in exile at teh time.
I think Gal had a run of pretty great lps including the 2 before thas and the next couple including a live lp from late 71.

//e.snmc.io/i/300/s/9da4338297e28ad9539bc4aeee9c9fea/8157207
Various artists cover Nick cave and a couple of songs he covered that he did rathe individual versions of.
Some good stuff here and i think it hangs together as a compilation ok

i love that Icecross record so much.

that icecross record record is great great great, from the song shit-talking jesus freaks to the song about a nightmare santa claus who talks like a dalek. i'm iffy on early '70s hard rock as a whole but that one is an absolute winner.

i used to have all those dead c albums on cd, can't believe i got rid of those

lately it's been fabric mixes -- surgeon, call super, midland

the surgeon mix is "not great" but idk it bangs, i like the vibe, it sounds like he doesn't care about proving anything anymore. sort of middling progressive techno with some half-tempo dubstep things with dodgy vocals thrown in there. i don't care, it bangs, great for a run.

call super mix is really quite brilliant though you can tell it's made by a "young ambitious artist" or w/e. extremely well executed though. deep stonery vibes.

midland mix sounds like boards of canada in places, i like it, it's good "tasteful" techno/house with a lot of variety, never got into it as deep as the ones above, though it has "city lights" on it which is z best.

i need new things to go gaga over. i thought it would be the edits compilations danny krivit is putting up on bandcamp but a lot of them just loop way too much for my taste.

have to check the call super mix, he is just so great imo. the 2017 2xLP was a favorite.

oh and beatrice dillon - workaround which will probably be my favorite album of 2020

https://f4.bcbits.com/img/a3649766278_10.jpg

xp call super is just the best, yeah! you are in for a treat

he also did ... i think it's a bbc essential mix? *checks* yeah here it is: https://soundcloud.com/call-super/the-essential-mix-for-bbc-radio-1

that had me screaming. SO GOOD

xxxxp no, budo, the orange one! Is that Gate too?
