# On The CD Player Today (take 6)

[stavros]

DJ Shadow - Endtroducing

 

[killer b]

Amorphous Androgenous - Tales of an Ephidrena

 

[stavros]

Blanck Mass - World Eater

It's not perfect from start to finish, but it may well be his best solo album so far. It'll be vying for number 1 spot in my end of year list.

 

[hash tag]

Rammstein (it has gone 8 )

 

[SpookyFrank]

New Order - Music Complete

It's not bad, but the songs all sound like they're waiting for Hooky's part to come in. Iggy Pop's track is the best bit.

 

[stavros]

The Fall - New Facts Emerge

After a short break from its first few listens, this seems slightly better, but is still shite in the wider pantheon of Fall albums.

 

[stavros]

Disco D - Straight Out Tha Trunk

 

[stavros]

Venera 4 - Eidôlon

There's just over two years left for someone to edge this out for my album of the decade. Quite, quite gorgeous, especially when turned up to 11.

 

[stavros]

Carter USM - This is the Sound of an Electric Guitar
Stars of the Lid - and their Refinement of the Decline

 

[stethoscope]

Lou Reed - Transformer
Beck - The Information
Raincoats - Odyshape

 

[flypanam]

Esmerine - Mechanics of dominion

 

[stavros]

Hüsker Dü - New Day Rising

This is one of those albums which I really like, but is marred by having one track which is phenomenally good (Celebrated Summer).

Hannah Peel - Mary Casio: Journey to Cassiopeia

Most excellently recommended by killer b it really is a bloody good listen. I should have listened to it earlier, she played here a couple of weeks ago

Yeah, she's touring it next month as well though I think - but nowhere near me...

 

[killer b]

(actually she's touring supporting Alison Moyet. This show in Hull looks good tho)

Richard Thompson - Acoustic Rarities

 

[flypanam]

Streamed this yesterday and bought it today. It's excellent.

The Soft Pink Truth - Why Pay More?

Fucking filthy and you know your mum would hate it, so obviously it's great.

 

[catinthehat]

As a Grandmother who was just this afternoon muttering 'Do they owe us a living' I take issue!

Turns out my bro is reviewing the Nottingham show, so I can go to that for nowt. Which is good value.

 

[flypanam]

The flying medallions - we love everybody and everything's great.

 

[stavros]

Diplo - Florida

 

[Voley]

Kurt Vile - B'lieve I'm Goin Down
Courtney Barnett And Kurt Vile - Lotta Sea Lice

Really into both of these albums.

 

[killer b]

I got this tape this week and it is amazing. Get on it (There's a vinyl edition too if you can't get with the format of the future)

 

[stavros]

Ludacris - Ludaversal

 

[stavros]

Mogwai - Every Country's Sun

Bits of this are top Mogwai, but it lacks a bit of consistency to be near the top of their back catalogue.

 

[stavros]

Charli XCX - Number 1 Angel

 

[stavros]

Mogwai - Atomic

 

[ManchesterBeth]

Michael Czajkowski - people the sky.

Been caning this for the past few months — really amazing stuff ... bucla synth album from 69 that has similar kind of nocturnal dissonances to some of the sahko stuff from the 90s in particular Vainio's O releases. very much like that there are rifflike pulses as a counterpoint to the free-form tones.

Led Zeppelin - Presence
