Don't you just love that special feeling you get from
whipping out an old favorite you haven't heard in a long
time? Currenly jamming to Photek - Modus Operandi

depends.

sometimes yes, sometimes no... some albums get older better
than others.

not really, no. when i listen to an album that i used to
like 4 or 5 years ago it sounds pretty different now. i hear
things in it i didnt hear before, other things i dont hear
in it anymore. so it's like listening to a new album.

Fuck. I love Jungle but I never really got into that Photek
album. It seems like everything I should love: cold hard
breaks. Time to give it another try.

I know - it´s great. The future sound of London´s
"Accelerator" is that kind of record for me... reminds me of
having it on full blast on my fathers hi-fi in the summer
92`... Great music.

Oh, good choice, that album gets better and better over the
years, to my ears.

Speaking of FSOL, the Androgonous Amorpheus album is fuckin
fantastic. B12's silicon garden, Prodigies Firestarter,
fuckin DREXCIYA.

B12's silicon garden... B12's silicon garden.... B12's
silicon garden.... and Drexciya. That's music, in my books,
proper, quality music.

Nacmat, please, as a personal favour, somehow get hold of
the "Isn't Anything" as it is better than "Loveless", and
I'm not lying to you.

Man it doesn't touch loveless, liar.

Loveless is just out there. fucking SOON best choon ever.

Wooooah, wooooah Mr Isn't Anything avatar, WOOOAH. "Soon"
granted, is best choon ever but it is clumsily tacked on the
end of "Loveless" and was intended for the unfinished
"Glider" album.

Loveless is teh GREATNESS, of that there's no doubt, the
b-sides of "To here knows when" as well are just holy friar
fuck, but I think "Isn't Anything", which sets the
blueprint for Loveless, gets overlooked and I can never,
ever, pass up an opportunity to plug it, I am sorry.

Oh yes I had forgotten my av. Hmmhm.

I haven't heard those b-sides I will track them down. Their
Wire cover has been blowing me away recently, goodness me if
there ever was a band who should have made more music.

I don't think I've ever listened to Isn't Anything all the
way through at once, which is something I can do with
Loveless no problem. 'No More Sorry' & 'All I need' get me
off.

I love leaving an album alone for a year or two and then
going back. The other day, I listened to the entire Black
Sabbath discography and it blew me away, they haven't fallen
out of favor with me at all. I can't believe people don't
like Technical Ecstacy.

I'd take Isn't Anything AND Ecstacy and Wine over Loveless.
For some reason that album hasn't aged well with me at all,
it's weird. It was all about the sound but now the sound
doesn't sound so special anymore and I just don't dig the
songs. Cupid Come and Strawberry Wine are just so smokin'.

"Cupid Come"... what can one say, the slackest, stickiest
guitar sound, the drums lazily coming in just not quite too
late, and then building up to the finale which combines
antipathy and malevolance and a bag of nails falling down
the stairs. HOLY FUCK.

"All I need"...

The Chameleons "What does anything mean basically" is
another great album that I like to dust off and never fails
to deliver.

The Chameleons... outside of my circle unfortunately.

i'd probably name "strange times" as my classic chameleons
album.

and i'd take "glider" and "tremolo" together over
"loveless."

wasn't that box set with tracks from the unreleased album
supposed to come out this spring?

an album that probably won't be too familiar but is one of
my all time favorites is "mouth by mouth" by his name is
alive. if uzim comes through maybe he'll second that...

I agree with your words, all of them. I read they were
getting back together to finish Glider, maybe for that box
set. Where is the damn box set anyway?

My favourite His Name is Alive album is "Home is in your
head". I don't think I ever heard much past the first two
albums though. I heard a bit of "my blues" something
something, but I lost the way. I need to get back on track.

his name is alive switched styles to quirky/smooth r'n'b
(?!) after "fort lake" when the original primary singer
quit.

if you liked "home is in your head," try "mouth by mouth."
it has a similarly schizophrenic vibe and idiosyncratic
production but mixed with more developed and even poppy
songs. if you check just one track, check "baby fish
mouth," the first track...

i never leave albums i like sitting on a shelf. i mean if i
buy a cd and hate it instantly i would try to forget about
it, but there are no 'classics' in my collection. it doesnt
matter if the cd is brand new or if its one of the first 10
i ever bought, i will listen to it just as often. i never
get bored of songs/styles, i just temporarily get out of the
mood for them (and back in the mood again within a week or
so).
