Yeah, I'm relly really loving this one. I couldn't put my finger on exactly why, but it is deffo pushing my buttons big time.

This is another I've dug out that I've been enjoying immenseley today.

Tarwater - Inside the Ships
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2-Q0TjdubyU&list=PLEA10EF038369E6D0

Mind you, don't trust me too much when it comes to Tarwater, bit of a musical blind spot, in that just about anything by them seems to go down a treat with me.

The Budos Band – Burnt Offering. This is, as they say, the freakin’ bomb. Militant psych funk heaviness, I strongly recommend you take a listen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-gOK9LjTtl8

Opeth – Pale Communion. Thought I’d check this out after some of last week’s posts… Whoa, Opeth truly are none more prog these days. After the excellent Storm Corrosion album that Michael Åkerfeldt did with Steven Wilson, this is very accomplished but sounds comparatively sixth-form in its arrangement and vision (ducks flying shoes). Very good in places though.

Matt Berry – Music For Insomniacs. I’ve found the bearded funnyman’s musical output pleasant but resistible up until now, but this Oldfield/Jarre homage is pretty great. Looking forward to repeat listens: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KNiYOcA6xpY

Rhyton – Kykeon. And a repeat play of this revealed a lot more fire in its belly than I’d first thought – driving instrumental psych rock with a Greco-Turkish influence, kind of Magic Lantern jamming with Erkin Koray: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qWErkpGaICw

Cian Nugent & The Cosmos – Born With The Caul

Seven That Spells – The Men From Dystopia

Poobah – ‘Mr Destroyer’. A YouTube search dropped me back into the seam of early 70s heavitude I spent a long time mining a few years ago, but I hadn’t heard this track before, a killer Hawkwind/Sabbath/Stooges mash-up: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bje4ErgDKnc

Iron Claw – ‘Skullcrusher’. Ditto. This is from 1970?? That guitar sound… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eSRZz13YiqI

Live:

Hedvig Mollestad Trio – Club Inégales, London. Oh wow, Hedvig & co were just amazing. Many moments of sublime jazz rock heaviness, Hedvig is my idea of a role model for the girls (whether they like it or not!), lots of stiletto/pedal board action… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YiIxltR4eV0
(I’ve never been to a proper jazz club before – I had to wait before I was allowed to enter so the house band could finish its jam!)

I like that Wake album a lot too - it's a great listen and has a nice introspective quality about it - especially the second and the title track.

Listened to Bish Bosch yesterday for the first time for a while. The new one sounds positively mainstream in comparison!

Yeah that's what they said on the Late Junction show last Thurs. Maybe he's softening in his old age. Great album though - especially the last track.
