Not really worth pointing out, but... it's Arthur Russell, not Arthur Russel

Since there was a three way tie, let's vote again for these three options: Nuclear Rabbit, Hermann Nitsch or Konstantin Raudive.

I'd like to suggest:

Quote:
Art Zoyd - Berlin



Strange very beautiful album by the fiercely underrated, and overlooked chamber-prog outfit Art Zoyd. This is the last album they've ever written that wasn't a silent movie soundtrack, and probably their last album as a 'band' rather than a 20, or so member mini-orchestra.(they're quite as big at this point but not as). This is the point where they really really were starting to invest in electronics, and this is pretty much an industrial album. Yet, a very melodic industrial album, and in 1989 probably one of the first few of it's kind.

Only three of us voted, but yes, Berlin did win. I will open the thread next Monday.

This album is wonderful, I hope people give it a good chance. (Albeit, probably not technically 'industrial' but still wonderful.)

I can supply a link for any who need it.

Right now, me and JackPat are looking into the concept of using mumu for album clubs, and opening an alternate mumu for full albums for club purposes, and in general.

Like an interactive album club radio.

... That's because there are only three of us.

^I've listened to 4 Art Zoyd albums so far, but not that one. I think I've heard one track from it and it was very different from their early work.

Anyway, the voting is over. I arrived to another tie and it was on me to untie it. Konstantin Raudive interests me more, tbh, but I decided to vote for Nuclear Rabbit, because it's in the poll for too long, being one of the first suggestions.

So, this week we're listening to Nuclear Rabbit - Vicuna

I want to nominate something more recent, sort of.

At first I wanted to nominate a Mr. Bungle or some other Mike Patton project right off, but I do feel we'll head that way someday naturally.

I want to nominate something overlooked.

I think this will be the time and place to nominate Nuclear Rabbit's first release Vicuna. It's available in all the usual internet places and on their website/the bassist's website (jeanbaudin) so despite being generally unheard of, they're not nobodies. They left a noticeable mark on California, at least, as well as attaining a worldwide audience (ya know, here and there).

I think it would be best described as a red-headed stepchild of Mr. Bungle. A kind of experimental thing. Really great lyrics when you catch them. The band knows what they're doing with their instruments. Their range of sounds is impressive. Hear it to understand. They are unique. Lyrics, photos, etc. at nuclearrabbit.co.uk as well (fansite)

Hmmm... wonder where Mr.D00d has been. Hopefully his interest didn't just fizzle out, and he left.

Anyway, I'd like to be first in line for the link registries.
