Spread the love for Ka-Spel and the boys. I've fallen completely in love with them, but it's overwhelming... dozens of album plus all his solo stuff and work with other artists... cEvin Key, Current 93, Nurse with Wound... such a tangled roadmap of music. But there's nothing so awkwardly beautiful as the Dots, am I right? Any Day Now and Crushed Velvet Apocalypse are great... Golden Age, Chemical Playschool 10, Ka-Spel's Tanith and the Lion Tree... too much music, too little time. I know Flea loved Tanith and the Lion Tree... and props to Cabbog for introducing me to them a while ago, but now they've really hooked me. Where can you get CDs from these guys online? |

The one, the only : http://www.strangefortune.com Look no further for all your Legendary Pink Dots needs. The prices are rediculously low and the service is (usually)excellent - Just make sure to ask him when he plans on sending your order out. |

Awesome, the future is looking bright now. And check out that Java Gameboy topic. |

i don't know them, but if they worked with NWW i'll try to check it out! |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
what stuff should i check out? |
||||||||

Good group. |
||||||||
|
|

excellent! i had the privilage of seeing them live in Vancouver B.C. a few years ago. It was at the starfish room, a tiny little club; a beautiful and intimate performance. cevin key was in the house that night. i didn't have the nerve to approach him though... |

check out the album, TO BE AN ANGEL BLIND, THE CRIPPLED SOUL DIVIDE thats a Tear Garden Release but it's still got ka-spel |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
best stuff, imho: tear garden: to be an angel blind... crystal mass lpd: from here you'll watch the world go by chemical playskool 8 & 9 malachai (shadow weaver 2) shadow weaver crushed velvet apocalypse i think malachai is their best work to date, so i also DO highly recommend checking out nurse with wound, as you mentioned... |
||||||||

I like Tear Garden better than LPD, personally. cEvin Key is a genius! I ordered some stuff from Strange Fortune, and I'm still waiting on my Hecate vs. Lustmord CD, and it's been a very long time... They billed me for it already so they better send it to me soon. |

My favourite is Under Triple Moons - a collection of earlier songs. Even though the songs aren't directly related (that I know of) they're mixed very, very well giving the album a story-like feel. It's impossible for me to just listen to one song and then quit, I always have to listen to all of them together. It might be my favourite album ever. |

ohhhhh man i gotta HEAR a band called 'the legendary PINK dots' i mean it sounds positively Power Puff Girlish.....and YET not.......ehhehe *wonders why cabbog didn't recommend to moi......brat!* |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm listening to them now, have been for hours. Deceptively dark music... Any Day Now has some pretty sick perverted imagery. Biting people's ears off during sex... not too Power Puff Girlish! Kinky. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Alright already. Try these two off of Crushed Velvet Apocalypse: - 'I Love You In Your Tragic Beauty' - 'Any Day Now' ... Then get 'Princess Coldheart'(dedicated to you!) if you like those two. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
And Ophecks, you need to get Comus's 'First Utterance' album. Wyrd-folk band that went under pretty quickly in the early 70s and one of my absolute favorites. Look for the song 'Diana'. Have you heard anything from 'The End' yet? I bet LeSnood would really like it too. Nico's presence is so strong I think she almost qualifies as my equal. I mean, in terms of me listening to what she has to say despite her being a woman. |
||||||||

Yeah, I downloaded the whole album... interesting experiement with Cale, but I dunno... a bit too avant garde until that hotass guitar and piano jam at the end. Her voice does make bad blood flow to my nether regions though. Ride the highway west! Baby... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

Peon. It was released almost 30 years ago. When will the avant gard of 1974 meet up with present day? |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
I didn't mean that.. I'm sowy Ophie. :( |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
It's OK. It's kind of hard to resist calling people ''peons'' sometimes, so I can forgive you. Very kewl werd. I'd also have to recommend ''Just a Lifetime'', that's what made me fall in love with this wonderful group of miracle workers. |

Where does he get those wonderful toys? You should start marketing your picture archives on cdrs. I bet you could make a fortune before you get gassed out of your house and thrown in prison. Down here whenever anyone gets in any legal trouble they go up there. Does it work the same way backwards up there? Do people even get in trouble in Canada? |

I saw them live in Atlanta in the fall... they were fantastic... they did an encore with their super long track from the end of All the King's Men Seriously fucking awesome... best stage energy i've seen in ages... and they make SO FUCKING MUCH MUSIC. Also, it was funny to watch Ed Ka Spel being taught what the Segway was by an old man before the show. |

its bands like this that will give me heart attack some day for releasing so much music (like coil, nww, current 93, swans (before they broke up), throbbing gristle etc). I would like to know a good introductory album to get into this band, ive had this band on my queue on soulseek for god knows how long but I havent heard any yet so, I'll just buy a cd and go from there. now i'll have to check out this Comus bussiness too. |

the slipperly lil cabbog has some good recommendations! and i agree.......it's kinda a bummer getting into groups who either have broken up, or never tour anymore, etc......it's like being shown some chocolate bars behind a glass case thats locked forever.........waaaaaaaaah |

Best introduction : Legendary Pink Dots - Crushed Velvet Apocalypse Try downloading the songs off the album I recommended her royal snotface a few posts up. LeSnood: Did you like 'Diana'? I don't remember hearing anything from you. |

1995's ''9 Lives to Wonder'' is my favorite album of the moment, really really really awesome. Really. Make haste! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what kind of music are we talking about?? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Very tough to describe- pop/psychedelia/classical/chamber music/fantasy hybrid... they've got dozens of albums and EPs, it's impossible to pin down their strange sound. Really a little bit of everything. A common thread is all the mythological and fantasy elements though, has a lot of imagination and quirky story telling. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I haven't heard that one yet. I'll get it along with 'Nemesis Online' and 'The Maria Dimension' next time I place an order. I'm slowly encroaching upon Joy Division and The Soft Boys.. Sloooowly. I'll have them soon. |

evil music ... just kidding. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
they have a large "goth" following. if that gives you any indication of their style of music. though, unlike many 'goth' bands, LPD and Tear Garden are actually quite good |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Really? All the fans I know are either weird gypsy boys or college professors.. or Ophecks. I guess I can see the attraction though. |

It's a 5 star classic, you have my Gypsy Boy word... that and Any Day Now, that one's got some psychosexual stuff in it. ''Casting the Runes'' from Any Day Now is so sad, boohoo! :_-( Right now I'm getting into All the King's Horses/All the King's Men dual 2002 releases. |

I trust you gypsy boy. I have no money at the moment though - I'm still looking for a job that's semi-worthy of the Cabbog. Electronics Boutique said they'd hire me as soon as someone gets fired or they need assistance. I practically work there already. I may have to pull a few shifts as a grocery boy at Wegmans, which is okay since it's at the top of the heirarchy. Nothing less will do. |
