A weekend of music inspired by Issue 2 of the Optical Sounds fanzine (which I wish I'd known about it in time to get the 1st issue - oh well).
Follakzoid - EP. There's a feature on the Chilean underground scene and this was the only record I found easily - you can buy it on MP3 at Boomkat and for under £3 it's a bargain. Two 10 minute krautrock tracks, nice Neu! vibe on the 1st track - should please folk who like Movements (Space Division) or Gnod etc.
Gnod - Ingnodwetrust. Still loving this.
Loop - various tracks from the reissues after reading the piece in Optical Sounds by Simon Price of The Heads. I'd not noticed Sunburst before, hidden away in the extras.
The Damned - Machine Gun Etiquette (after reading the article on Captain Sensible's guitar playing)
Also listened to Can (Ege Bayamsi) and some Echo and the Bunnymen and Teardrops.
