Section 25 - Nature + Degree: top new album

Bob Dylan - "Masters of War" from The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan: seems particularly resonant at the moment

Durutti Column - "Lockdown" from Love In The Time of Recession;
"The Missing Boy" from LC; "Otis" from Vini Reilly: to make up for missing the MCR gigs this week

The Primitives - "Thru The Flowers": no particular reason, just a top tune.

Kate Bush - "Army Dreamers": "Our little army boy/Is coming home from B.F.P.O." Quite.

I'm out all tomorrow, and I'm in tonight, so:

Half Man Half Biscuit- Back in the DHSS. I don't think I've listened to this for nearly 20 years, but it was brilliant to stick it on again. I was right back in the 5th form at school again. Too many great lines to quote (and oh, how me and my mates quoted them as schoolboys), but what's overlooked is how musically appealing and distinctive this record is, too.

HX2- Pent Up. Sole self-released LP from local band who briefly, in about 1991, seemed like they could be contenders. Now just a period piece at best, but still has a punky charm for those of us who were there and is shot through with a self-depracating nihilism that is pure Halifax. If they'd been around 15 years later, would probably have been quickly signed and just as quickly dropped in the post-Arctic Monkeys tykeophile rush.

The Verve- A Northern Soul.

Astrolabe- Welcome to the Universe. Solid instrumental spacerock stuff.

Iggy Pop- New Values. 75% pure gold- I'm Bored, The Endless Sea, Girls, the title track, five foot one... but then can anyone listen to African Man without cringing? Ouch!

Gang of Four- Songs for the Free.

Rose of Avalanche- Always There.

Marc and the Mambas- Torments and Toreros. Now this is an overlooiked classic for sure. Loving Marc's version of Peter Hammill's 'Visions' amongst this weird hybrid of 80s goth rock, chanson, Scott Walker and latin-flavoured showtunes.

Mark Vidler- The Future, The Past and the Present Tension. I enjoyed this. The vocals are a bit contrived and it never really gets beyond the level of pastiche, but still...a very comfortable listen.

A Place To Bury Strangers- S/T. Looking forward to seeing them tomorrow.

Eno: Apollo.
Eno: Compact Forest Proposal.

Boomtown Rats: Tonic for the Troops.
Boomtown Rats: The Fine Art of Surfacing.

Talking Heads: Remain In Light.

Disciplin A Kitschme: Kada Kažeš Muzika, Na Šta Tačno Misliš, Reci Mi?
(When you say music, what exactly do you mean?)

Brian Jonestown Massacre (5 albums on shuffle)

And a couple of U2 albums (going to see them tomorrow in Dublin and I'm really looking forward to it. Bono may well be an arse, but attending a U2 gig is a lot like taking a trip to Cape Canaveral to watch the space shuttle lift off. It'll be a spectacular experience whatever you may think of the band)

Bat For Lashes - Two Suns

The Verve - Forth. Well, it was £3 and a deluxe pack thing. Anyhoo, a few songs that might be good enough to go on "A Northern Soul" and it does go to show how Nick McCabe adds such sparkle to Ashcroft's more mundane dawbings. Makes you wonder why Nick M doesn't go off and make a space-rock epic album and leave Ashcroft to the dad rock. I like a lot of Verve songs, but it's painfully obvious that Richard Ashcroft would desperately like to be some shamanic type (TM Julian Cope) and he just isn't.

Secret Machines - S/T. After a few plays I'm really liking this more and more. Better than the last album IMO

Dandy Warhols - Earth To The Dandy Warhols. Not reinventing the DW wheel, but I likes.

Julian Cope - The Unruly Imagination.

Korpiklanni - Korven Kuningas

Pink Floyd - Piper at the Gates of Dawn (mono & stereo versions)

Cascada -Evacuate The Dancefloor. Not got it, just been in my head for ages.

Stanley Clarke, Marcus Miller, Victor Wooten - Thunder. Low and 3 bass funk fusion madness. Tis Great

Arch Enemy - The Wages of Sin. Woooaaaargh!

Underworld - Beacoup Fish. Marvelous

Think that's mostly it

Have a nice week Eye Pods
