but I don't think there's much of replay value most of the songs sound too "radio-friendly" and that song hardly sounds like "Stairway", IMHO |

Phallus Dei, A Day In The Life Of Brian Wilson. Atmospheric experimental psychedustrial. That's the pretentious genre I'm going to put on this album. Whatever it is, it's great stuff. Thanks Bob! It's hard to tell from that tiny picture I found, but that is The Old New Thing, a free jazz anthology selected by Wu Ming I, an author and founder of the Wu Ming Foundation, a writer collective. He's mixed in clips from speeches and songs in the Civil Rights movement, and clipped the songs so that they merge almost seamlessly into one another. I am really freaking excited about this. A double LP that comes with a booklet that details the history of free jazz, along with several photos. All for $8.00. Hoorah. Found this box set used, also for $8.00. Thought to myself, "Damn, that's on awesome deal. Yoink!" Just now realized that it's a three disk set, not a two disk set. I only have the first two. Damn. Oh well. Sex Pistols, All The Hits. This is just a generic compilation disk of... The Sex Pistols. Shocking, I know. According to the internet, it's Dutch. There's a version of Search And Destroy on here by Sid Vicious. That's all I can say about it, really. Don't usually buy "best of" CDs like this one, but it was only four bucks, and was unopened.

As promised to Bob.
Swans - The Seer Thought it started off a bit slow, and maybe found Lunacy leaning towards tackiness, thought it was a little patchy until the title track, which was an easy sell to me, and it improved by loads after that. Disc 2 is pure ****ing gold. I'm not great with double albums. I usually find them patchy, unnecessarily long, and full of filler, but I'm pleased with this. I am really surprised though, by how fast it's shot into the top 1000 on RYM. I wouldn't personally call it an instant classic, but it's got a lot of greatness to it. |

As much as I love this record, I was always a little disappointed by the flat production, but I grew accustomed to it over time. I always heard they had an American mix in the can somewhere, and was always curious to hear the difference. Well, here it is. I wish the didn't release it as an expensive double cd, but it's worth it. The production is much fuller, and a lot livelier.
