Anderson PSI Division by David Roach 91 ...had loads of 2000AD comics, collected them religiously from issue 1 to the late 300's but one day decided to get shot of them all in 94 (regrettably) - all that great Bolland / Mike McMahon artwork and classic Judge Dredd storyline gone gone gone...

I’m in love with this track Dream Alone from Lace Heart It trembles like a star filled sky or like an evening sun that melts into a petrol rainbow. The more you look the more intriguing it becomes. Its lack of substance is a definition of substance flickering on your retina in scratchy super 8

@ the Cube, Bristol - Thurs 6th July 2006 Pumajaw were bloody superb, coming at the genre of folk music sideways - with a kind of aesthetic that pulsed vitality, the combination of Pinkie’s undeniable operatics (boy her vocal range was just bewildering) and John’s foot tapping series of tight guitar loops and textures really throbbed with life dispelling [...]

I’d like to introduce the Noisejihad net label. (thanks to Rafael for bringing it to my attention) Not the blistering assault on the senses you may at first think, as a lot of the free dwlds here are very drone based which makes a refreshing change from the expected extreme end of the noise scene. I can never get enough of both camps, but on a lovely sunny day like today where even the necessity of breathing is too much effort a slowly built structure that [...]

The vocals really make this release, throwing words as potent conveyors to a structure supported by skeletal electronics that erupt along a frighteningly pleasing and spacious melody. In same places glitchy, the tunes are fractured enough to evade predictability with their continuity cut sharply into focus - trimmed to the bone. The vocals evaporate towards the end of the album replaced by technogical debris that washes over you in an itchy broken pulse of a beat. Only faint echoes of 'Come On' can be heard slipping under the [...]

Desperate Straights - Slapp Happy / Henry Cow (1975) The rich lithographic artwork and spidery handwriting hints of the strangeness waiting within. Devastate to Liberate - Various (1985) A bit of a diversion for Stapleton's general artwork sensibilities opting for a simple typographic list of the bands involved. The ‘camo’ colours forming an Anarchy symbol slap bang in the centre - a mission of intent for this animal liberation benefit album. [...]

...don't know son by Cloudboy Junior

Roots nagging my steps ...tree speech in plastic bags â€" a murmuring narration twisting, insinuating into consciousness like a syrupy dagger - Slow slow slowly does it. Sparkling reflective with palm stretched as if offering something vaguely familiar, yet the body is all sluggish fireworks that melt in the outline of shadow... Like tightening circles, jittery prose or faint whispers scratched into bark. An essence of something but nothing comes to mind... [...]

A little bit of car boot magic for yer... and not a scratch in sight (best quid I've ever spent)

Beatismurder have a new release from Sepia Hours , who has been populating a lot of other netlabels with his particular brand of post-rock / indietronica for the best part of 3 years now. Sepia Hours is such a great description for his late night / rainy day sobriety. His blurry low key vocals wander through some interesting soundscapes created from gently slipping amalgams of guitar lines, splintered minimalism and the odd unexpected sonic detour. Beautiful stuff, like a rain soaked window reflecting a fragile half emptiness... where bruised feelings and defeat make us more human, [...]

With a HNAS sensibility for chopped up sound it's my pleasure to introduce Zoogoo Inside a mouth.mp3

It might be a load of made-up bunk (a excuse to sell us even more crap) but Father’s Day has come early in my household. Leaving a tear or two drying on my cheek... Apparently I didn’t cut the mustard as a superhero... but this free Guardian (inspired) assemblage by my trouble [...]

(or was that poundland) oh and this chap was from Reading Thristle Tongue - Shock Headed Peters a 'green fingered' track to accompany some summer planting...

Joni Mitchell - Song to a Seagull (1968) A dreamy hand drawn delight and a teeny fish eye view of Joni sporting a pink plastic umbrella. Herbie Hancock - Headhunters (1973) Iconic tribalism in acid sharp colours. The Underneath - The Lunatic Dawn of the Dismantler (1987) Spanners and home cooked typography from one of Karl Blake’s side projects. [...]
