Hello! I'm good thanks, enjoying my break in summer, listening to some good old music and taking up violin playing again. How about you? Did you hear Gary from Cathedral's new band Lucifer? Not sure if they are considered his band but he contributes to it.

The 13th floor elevators are like... the best thing.

I think it's completely mindblowing. Such an underestimated band. Can't wait for it to be released on vinyl.

See, I can say which one is my favourite, but then again I absolutely love them all. And yeah, Scott fucking Reagers's got the most awesome voice.

Easy one here. Hollow's victim. Followed by the s/t from 1984. You?

Must have missed your message, no I havent yet but will do asap! How are you doing??

Blame it on last.fm Hawkwind radio. I'm not that cool.

Thergothon, yes. Now this is IT.

No. I haven't even heard the name I am afraid.

Any recommendations on Budgie? I have set my mind on checking them, but don't know where to start from. Just saw you've been listening to Captain Beefheart this week too and thought it was a cool coincidence but then it is so high in your overall charts, haha :)

:D http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ujRRU_bZNUE lovely, isn't it

Nooo, very high!

>> gong<<

Hehe, I'm never wrong about music. Do you like Hassles best? Stranded and Clown on rope are my other favourites.

Wow, that good? I must check for myself :D I agree that the new Moss is by far their best, the vocals are much more awesome. Have I recommended you Fresh Blueberry pancake? If not, I do.

Hah, I was actually wondering about Acid Mothers Temple, but now you convinced me. Moss are one of these bands whose recordings don't make me feel so enthusiastic, but I bet I will also enjoy them live. Yesterday I saw a Seremonia cd for 2 dollars, maybe I had to buy it!

Hey, Steve! Did you enjoy the Moss gig?

Hmm, maybe mate. Working in central that day so should be fairly easy to get to. Just need to work out if I can afford it!

Hell yeah! I just got into them and I can't stop listening! Also - I need Matt Berry's songs. I'm guessing you like Snuff Box?

Me too. Only without Black Magician and not in London. I don't like so much the new album, never was a big fan of Moss. But I got to admit, they have "improved" loads. Still, it would be very interesting to see them live. Wait. I forgot to tell you - I got a ticket for SAAAABATH in December and I am so terribly looking forward to it despite my stupid sitting position!!

Ehhh, I don't know. I really enjoy them sometimes but usually I can think of better things to listen to. Like if I want doom I'll listen to Sleep or Electric Wizard and if I want sort of "Eastern" inspired jazz I'll listen to Alice Coltrane or Anouar Brahem.

So I saw Caravan the other day, I thought they were really fantastic! They played in a church and it really worked (despite a bit of feedback!). Nine Feet Underground sounded incredible. Really glad I went!

Steve, what was the Caravan gig you went to like? Going to see them in Sandwich on this tour. What did you think of It's Kevin?

Sure buddy, I am never wrong about music! And it gets better.

Hehe yeah, I see you've listened to "Why don't you give it to me?" a lot of times, it's the best!! I was wondering why this album doesn't sound old at all and just checked on wiki and it says it's from 2007. I had something "missing" and it's obviously that.

UFO's first album sounds to me just like the kind of music that you would totally enjoy :D

Oh EP, did I say EP? I liked ''Legalise drugs and murder", "Murder and madness" is not bad either, but the tape that followed was pretty bad. Having too high expectations is never good, especially when it comes to just two songs in such a short time. I bet they already had these recorded somewhere in their garage, I mean "Our witchcult grows".

Oh my. Christmas has come earlier this year, that's just fantastic! I think something from the old spirit is needed to bring Electric wizard back to the right path, because that latest EP kinda sucked. *looks at Greening* And Mark is that kind of guy that seems totally unchanged, as if he's stayed in a vacume all these years. I really hope they get him back. I won't delude myself and think it will be like the old days, but it might work better than latest EW efforts.

It's so good I can cry, whenever I play it, it just sounds so damn awesome. It's so so so good and honest, absolutely mind blowing, but it seems you feel it too :)

I was considering the Newcastle or the Glasgow one, because I might be there to sort out some stuff with the universities. Still not sure, though. Maybe if I find decent airplane tickets.

Ah, I see. There's an option for me, fingers crossed :D

Do you think about going to any of the Vitus gigs?

Yeah, and it's a good spamming source as well ;d http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7E0dFbz72v4 I really, really love this song. Long live flutes!

Noooooooooo way! Growling is growling, good 'ol rock'n'roll is good old rock'n'roll ;d Plus. Stepen, I'm not very much into growling! My soulseek just spontaneously downloaded a great folder with all kinds of interesting underground bands from the 70s, a real treasure to explore :)

I bet you would appreciate that! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_8pcWvFbH7c

Heh, I remembered we talked about them some time ago and gave them another listen. Not very keen on the vocals (as you can imagine) but the music is pretty cool! I don't know how they're labeled, sound to me something like progressive pop ;D

Song within a song is a classic!!

Well, I've listened to only 2 of his albums and I find them pretty decent. I think I've become too critical of music these days. The guitar is really good, I love the sound, especially some solos are fantastic (Crazy, Grey life) but I don't like his voice that much - sounds a bit like sick Ozzy.

well, you're lucky. wouldn't mind joining you.)

I had not, but I did. The music is fairly good, but I'm not very keen on the vocals.

Why didn't you tell me about the aquarium :/

Oh well, I am in two minds about it. I like it, because it keeps you updated with bands you like and stuff like that, but at the same time I hate spending too much time on the computer... I guess you can't help it these days. Maybe it's kind of fun if you use it for music only.

Like a lunatic, I know. I think it will stay deactivated for some time.

Haha, believe it or not but it wasn't until I saw the video of Endless night that I decided the album would be cool. Before that I had a presentiment that it will suck (I'm not a big fan of Nuclear blast, you know) plus, the other single Goliath is the only song that I'm not totally diggin', it's too disco for my tastes, lol. Are Swans playing somewhere near you? I'd love to see them live, at least the experience would be something quite different. I was completely astounded by the number of concerts in Glasgow, I bet I wouldn't be bored ;D

Wtf.. poor man's Witchcraft.. whoever said that was and is very much far away from the truth. The only way in which I can really connect them comes from the fact that these guys used to play in the same band, then disbanded and formed Graveyard and Witchcraft. And while I really like Witchcraft's mixture of folk, blues and rock they are quite different from Graveyard's pure kicking ass rock'n'roll. Oh sorry if this is too long, I'm just huge on all of their records, especially their master skills can be heard on 'Hisingen blues' and 'Lights out'. For how I am, I am swallowed by tons of shit, having to meet tons of people I can't stand. I am really glad it's my last year in this town. You?

Oh and by the way, you should totally hear the new Graveyard album - Lights out, I've been spinning it all month crazily

Stranger.. ok, ok. Sure, I am familiar! But to be honest, I've not listened to it for quite a long time *starts playing* thanks for reminding me :)
