Remains - Religious Knives (drone-devotional Double Leopards related ritual) Spooked Summer - Hototogisu (Bassett and Bower's sweet bliss noise thing, never bettered) Trees Outside the Academy - Thurston Moore (surprisingly pretty boy-girl folk insiderdom) Das Zerstoren, Zum Gerbaren - The New Blockaders (live noise-pain sesh from last year's ATP - it's got a German title, it must be HEAVY) Presents the Paisley Reich - Times New Viking (faux-shit on siltbreeze) Future Artists - The Dead C ("the AMM of punk rock") Beyond - Dinosaur Jr (nothing changes) Electric Dress - Merzbow/Carlos Giffoni/Jim O'Rourke (halfway to a headache) Early Works - C.C.C.C. (essential archival set of japache) Mortise and Tenon - Sapat (best hippy dippy dribble jam blat of 07)
You would like all the discs, Tom, I know you wld
Biggest let-down: the Animal Collective alb. Just horrible, and not in a good way.
