Their debut is their best fer sher ...

Just picked up Jimi Hendrix "Valleys Of Neptune" which is at least on a par with The Jimi Hendrix Concerts in being basically a studio document of a live band with a few obscure tunes and overdubs ... very cool

Long Distance Calling - Avoid the light (post-rock)

Swallow the Sun - New Moon (death doom metal)

These two bands will play with Katatonia on tour so I wanted to check their music. Good.

DEATH YELL – Morbid Rites DLP
(released by Nuclear War Now! Productions)

A compilation of Chilean extreme metallers Death Yell’s sole demo ‘Vengeance From Darkness’ (originally put out in 1989) as well as a previously unreleased live recording.
I've had the songs from the demo in mp3 format for quite a while now though it’s nice to finally be able to have a release with the actual thing.

Musically this is a mixture of old-school black/death/thrash which though as barbaric as can be occasionally contains bits which could be described as downright melodic.
Fans of very old Sepultura (Morbid Visions, Bestial Devastation EP), Holocausto, Order From Chaos, Blasphemy and the like, even anyone with an interest in the foundations of extreme metal in general should enjoy this.

My Morning Jacket - Z
Needed to see what all the hype is about. I haven't listened to it yet, but I'm looking forward to it

Wilco - the album
Needed to see what all of the hype is about. I'm thoroughly unimpressed. It's definitely a down turn from Sky Blue Sky. Admittedly it is somewhat of a return to the AM and Jeff Tweedy's Uncle Tupelo days, but I see it as an abrupt break in a progression that was leading them toward a new and brilliant sound.

Joe Purdy -Julie Blue
Folkish Singer/songwriter form Arkansas. Really beautiful, honest, and eclectic stuff

Elvis Costello - Trust
Thank you Mr. Bulldog for your support of my ever increasing interest Costello's work this album was an excellent 2nd step from My Aim is True.

No probs my good man - twas my pleasure

Natalie Merchant - Motherland

A few descriptions on wikipedia and varying blogs aside, I have no idea what this'll sound like. I just heard David Bowie namedrop this album in an interview, had never heard of it before, so thought I may as well check it out.

Texas - Greatest Hits

My girlfriend wanted me to download this for her and, frankly the sooner she takes it off my hands the better.

Have you heard of any of Natalie's other solo stuff, or her work with 10,000 Maniacs for that matter?

Haven't heard a squeak of it (except the name 10,000 Maniacs - that rings a bell or two). I might give the album a first go a bit later tonight. I like getting into new albums this way, even more so when that album turns out to be fantastic (which I've heard this one is). I remember when I bought Thievery Corporation's the Mirror Conspiracy all those years ago and had absolutely no idea what to expect of it - it's good fun when musical gambles like that pay off.
