The Mares Nest

It's on Manhoo CD single.

the middle bit of "food on the wall" is basically egg's "contrasong". just spotted that the other day.

I'm surprised this hasn't been spotted and posted before, a Cardiacs tribute called "Seething Eddies" (like it!) played in Scunthorpe back in April. Fortunately someone was on hand to film it and put on t'interweb. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KVpZp49xRXM (Arnald, In A City Lining, Gin...

great photo is all i can say!

I've just noticed that there appears to be a new release from 2012 on Tibet's Coptic Cat label, Out of the Coma . It consists of three new songs plus a lengthy song recorded live in 1972. I don't have this, though the reviews are mostly positive. 'Out of the coma' is worth getting, the new material...

Here's a link to Pictures by Island, a late 70s Swiss band who are often classed as Krautrock. Whether they should be classified as Krautrock doesn't really matter of course; the important thing is the quality of the music, which I think scores pretty highly: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GS5XP4-g...

great album, one of my italian faves.

I see that all the demos of Kavus' excellent early 90s metal band Die Laughing have been uploaded onto youtube, if anyone else was seeking them. A lot of the Celtic Frost worship of the time coming through with an added rush of Voivod-ian time/tempo changes and getting more "psychedelic" a...

OK, I can't believe I'm about to confess this being the extreme metal, darkened soul that I am, but I used to own the first two a-Ha albums, Hunting High and Low and Scoundrel Days . I think I was, er, experimenting or something. What was I thinking? :roll: Those albums are great! And I'm a metal g...

haha that's awesome

found this very edition in copenhagen only the other week actually. equivalent of £8. after all these years i think that's my first overseas cardiacs purchase...

A lot of nice things on that list, there is a lot of 80s RIO/zeuhl in there, most of the great 90s Japanese acts, it's a nice list, though it doesn't have the notoriety of the NWW list which has inspired obscurantists since 79. I believe one of the people in that band ran the Mutant Sounds blog whi...

Yes i've been charmed by that tour too, a while back; it's nice to see artists in their cribs, especially if they're not gangster rappers (or whatever they're called nowadays). :) The NWW list is a triumph of its kind: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nurse_with_Wound_list You'd literally never go hung...
