What a hoot! I heard they're playing now at the Edinburgh Festival for a week.Yeah, off to see them in Glasgow at King Tut's this Sunday. Well looking forward to it, like, loving the Volume 1 album. There's a long interview with Jason in the most recent Anti-Up magazine, too. Stonking stuph.Loving the Like Wow stuff, as well - Been on a mission to get as much Thomas Truax material since I saw him at Truck Fest.

Tav Posted August 20, 2004 Report Share Posted August 20, 2004 My purchases today in One Up:Jerry Cantrell: Boggy Depot (On just now... seems as good as Alice In Chains. No shock there then...).Boggy Depot is pretty good though I wouldn't say it's as good as anything AIC did. There are some really good tracks though. Have you heard Degredation Trip Volumes 1&2 Double CD? It's darker then Boggy Depot with out being overly heavy. A really great double album. I wouldn't bother with the single CD version as you'd be missing out on a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paulscoconutass Posted August 21, 2004 Report Share Posted August 21, 2004 You won't be dissapointed - gimme suicide rock n'roll!I've heard 'Rock 'n' Roll can rescue the world' and it's my new favourite song by a mile, also heard the BBC radio thing they did with 'Suicidal Rock 'n' Roll', topped off with a performance on wednesday they're fairly rocking up my love-list. The guitarist even gave me one of his beers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afro Droid Posted August 21, 2004 Report Share Posted August 21, 2004 THey are without a doubt one of the best bands I've seen. God bless Fuidge for bringing them to Aberdeen. They are honest, pure, rock music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.M Posted August 21, 2004 Report Share Posted August 21, 2004 Been ages since I last bought any cd's, but my last was possibly White2 by Sunn 0))Haven't had the chance to listen to it in full though because my mind goes off wondering within about five minutes of listening.

Guest Jake Wifebeater Posted August 21, 2004 Report Share Posted August 21, 2004 Most recent noise purchase was the Agathocles/Jan Ag and the Gajna split 7", and what a beaut it is. One Ag song from 1989, only recently unearthed and unavailable anywhere else, a raw as fuck rehearsal version of a song called "Busted". The Gajna amaze as always, 5 songs of insane, fuzzed-out distortion paying homage to classic mid-80's Japanese HC such as Coward, Swankys, Gai and Confuse. $4 postpaid from:Jan FrederickxAsberg 82400 MolBelgium.Fucking get it.

Guest Stripey Posted August 21, 2004 Report Share Posted August 21, 2004 Where's the box' date=' the booklet, the extras, the better quality and most of all where is the support for your favourite artists.[/quote']Yea man cuz when we buy a cd what we really want is a shitty box and a booklet Properly encoded high bitrate mp3's have no audible loss in quality. There are no quality issues when you download dvd iso's which you burn straight to a dvd-r and are exactly the same as the commercial release, sans packaging. I'd be happy to have all my film/audio stored in a computer, dvd's and cd's take up too much space as it is, without a box and an inlay.

I've paid for downloaded music and burnt it to CD and despite getting some quality music for my money I simply don't listen to it as much as I would a CD I bought. Maybe I've been preprogrammed by years of consumerism to only find packaged items desirable.I'm glad to say the tide is changing since I got an MP3 player in the car. Now all I need is some iPod/clone and it'll make my MP3s seem all the more appealing than CDs.(EDIT) I also must admit to being a sucker for packaging, it's all the Designer's Republics fault and their PWEI vinyl sleeves. I'm a pop art junky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, I do like the extra stuff you often get to read when you buy them, and I don't mean just the lyrics and the waste of space that is the "thanks" list. I get all my stuff from writing to bands, distros and the like and there's often some literature with the releases, a nice letter etc., gives it the personal touch, I reckon. Far better than walking into a shop, picking something up and handing over money at a counter. I do get some CD's and DVD's, but I will always love vinyl, I still say some styles of music sound better on that format. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was inconsolable for about a week and the dartboard had to go. Strange thing is, the dart made a big blister mark, but it's worn down over the years and the record is nearly back to normal now.
