i heard the clips 2 weeks ago and was impressed. im
thinking of ordering it. is it really limited to 1000
copies??

yeah, like most of the Merck records.

I hate the fact that they only accept paypal. Although I'm
going to place an order tomorrow I could't resist to
download it already.
It's very calm and less beats than Negative, but it's that
nice Proem sound again :)

btw: what does socially inept mean exactly

it means like socially foolish

like not just having no social skills but more or less
making a fool of yourself.

what does the voice say at the end of Carpark Kittens?

"If kittens could talk, they would whisper soft riddles into
my ear, tickling me with their ..?..?.., making me laugh,
unlike you, who just makes me wants to ....?...?....."

Yeah, "Socially Inept" is excellent, dripping off my ears
like organic graham cracker honey treats. The vocal
playfulness on "i don't know how to tell", "when frailty
fails" and "carpark kittens", the sighing electric guitar on
"deep like airline failure", the crunchy rocker "little_a",
it's all just so good. Other tracks like the beautiful
"da.vironmint" and "socially inept" are sweet ambient
flirtations...

Please, Mr. Proem man, may I have another?

BTW, the "lyrics" are printed in the liner notes. Give
Merck a few bucks for your own copy :) (or if you prefer
cheapy downloads, at least PayPal some money to Merck in
thanks - the info to do so is on their front page)

I really want to give Merck a few bucks, even more than a
few because I also want a T-shirt and Esem - Serial Human,
but as like Xltronic they only accept PayPal and not
creditcard, and that is f*****g annoying! because I have to
make an account at a company I do not trust.

I'm forced to do it soon before Proem is out of stock

Great little album, I love the melodic structure. The album
title just seals the deal for me, he had me at hello.

if you like Bola - Fyuti then you definitely should check
out Proem - Socially Inept

Phob: when does Merck records will be added to the discogs?
this label deserves more attention

even if they are just pressed 1000

When Frailty Fails
when frailty pales in comparison
and your bones feel like breaking
when your empty head caves in
you can tear off my arms and take me
I will not complain or fight with you
to save you from live
when frailty fails to save you
when frailty fails to save you
from me

man, i only wish this was being released on cd,
because...well. my record player thinger is buried in some
box at my parent's house. a shame, really, as this sounds
well worth purchasing.

dammit, i can't find his cd, negativ, for sale anywhere. i
imagine it's probably been sold out by now, as it's been so
long, but...still. i'm upset by this. oh well.

if you are a lucky man Warp still have it in stock,
my copy which I ordered at Warpmart arrived saturday

I also looked everywhere, I even asked merck if they knew
where I could get it, but they didn´t know...
and 2 weeks ago when I was bored I was browsing through the
warpmart list and suddenly... WHAAAT! real??, no way #"!'!,
and ordered it right away :D
