Goldie - Journeyman. First half has sounded worthwhile so far...

Gnod - Chapel Perilous. Wasn't that fussed

Ghostpoet - Some say I, so I say light. Was fussed.

Gary Lucas - Improve the shining Hour. Comp of his stuff. He being right hand man to Beefheart I think I'm right in saying? Some great collaborators on it too like Nick Cave and Pete Stampfel. Recommended to those that don't know o f it.

Funkadelic - S/T, Lets take it to the stage.

Killing Joke - S/T, What's this for?, Nighttime, MMXII.

Jesus and the Mary Chain - Darklands

Jungle Brothers - Raw Deluxe. Haven't listened to this much over the years, but glad I did on this occasion. Nice bit a 'conscious hip-hop' - you know, the intelligent and thoughtful side of it.

Edit. The 2nd half of Journeyman is too lounge jazzy. This is not a love song is a stinker.

Also listened to Invincible - S/T

Teeth Of The Sea – Wraith. I’ve never really clicked with these guys in the past, but on first listen, I’m quite liking this. More electronic than before, but not in a we’ve-gone-techno way

The Claypool Lennon Delirium – South Of Reality. Bloke from Primus and Sean Lennon get together, and make an album that’s like a 90s alt rock version of a late Beatles album, with a bit of nu-prog thrown in. I’m not sure I’d ever want to listen to this all the way through again, but it’s pretty good in small doses: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pyu89NHSniU

Günter Schickert – Nachtfalter. Never heard of this guy before, but he apparently released some kosmische guitar albums in the 70s/80s, and he’s comparable in style to players like Manuel Göttsching or Steve Hillage. New album updates the sound against an almost industrial backing at times: http://www.bureau-b.com/guenter_schickert.php

Matthew Shaw – Among The Never Setting Stars. Pretty nice drone album: https://blackestrainbowrecords.bandcamp.com/album/among-the-never-setting-stars

Twelfth Night – Sequences. My favourite band as a neo-prog teen return to the studio to record a new version of their epic WW1-themed track. Feels kind of strange listening to this in 2018, but it remains a passionate and ambitious piece. (here’s the version from the 1983 Reading Festival: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nl-J3fCQB1k)

Lorelle Meets The Obsolete – De Facto

Hedvig Mollestad Trio – Smells Funny

Amgala Temple – Invisible Airships

Caspar Brotzmann Massaker – The Tribe. Love a bit of Caspar, and there’s a CBM re-issue programme underway. This is their first album from 1988, and it’s actually less challenging than some of their later stuff, even pretty tuneful in places. Fans of Red-era King Crimson and fans of NY noise bands – Sonic Youth, Swans, Glenn Branca etc – should definitely investigate. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7iLbYIja4-s

Buzzcocks - I Don't Mind/Times Up
Cheapy CD comp from yoinks ago that has surprisingly good tracklist. Certainly most of my faves included, though still not a patch on Times Up! with Devoto.

Nurse With Wound - Rock'N'Roll Station
Title track of said album is deffo one of my fav' NWW tracks.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a4_jJ_Zi9eE

Bauhaus - Bela Sessions EP
Still loving this. Must have played Bela about a dozen times this week. Missed bloody Northampton show t'other week by not being on the ball and forgetting which blinkin' weekend the gig was. Still, mighty fine full performance some lovely person filmed from earlier in tour up on yutwat.....
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0NMtQLL64gs
Pretty flippin' tight show...if I closed me eyes it could be 1980 (well minus Pete's usually cutting intersong banter). His pipes sound better than ever! (Must be all the Meth).

Beastie Boys - Paul's Boutique
First album I ever bought by the BB, and still their finest in my opinion.

Anthroprophh - Omegaville
Great metally post punk sounds from guy from Heads and Big Naturals pals. Storming record, not a duffer on it. https://anthroprophh.bandcamp.com/album/omegaville

Moontribe - Moontribe
Stripped back percussive dubby sounds from Tel Aviv inna post punk, erm library psych stylee.... https://daily.bandcamp.com/tag/moontribe/

BEAK - >>>
This just gets better and better the more I play it. In fact this may just be my fav BEAK release to date. https://beak.bandcamp.com/album/-

Dumb - Seeing Green
Canadian angular indie inna catchy post punk stylee. Good stuff. Kinda reminds me of early Pavement crossed with one time Camden lurchers and Shellac wannabe's Elevate. I can even forgive em' nicking the classic SFA lyric "vortex covered in Goretex". https://dumbband.bandcamp.com/album/seeing-green

Magazine - Second Hand Daylight

Bowie - Low, Man Who....

Butthole Surfers - After the Astronaut
Never released late career bootleg album that isn't typical Buttholes at all, having a more indie sound, not half bad despite that. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJ_Tz1dbo0o&list=PL5sTi84a7QFD-8V6l_eiar2bIWc_Jv7Qd

Big Black - Rich Mans Eight Track

That's About it, have a better one!

I've a Claypool Delerium record store day covers thingy called 'Lime and Limpid Green EP' that ain't half bad...not sure I'd like a full album of em' though. have a listen here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wntHQz_YJG8
It's not gonna blow yer sox off, but well enough executed.

The only Günter Schickert album I have is Überfällig, which is all right in that repititional kinda psych/ kraut way. First track 'Puls' is my fav, but the rest are OK inna Amon Duul II meandering kinda way, esp. last track 'Wanderer', which is a lovely piece of music.

I am sure we are in the minority here but they really are an ace band aren't they? FEAR really is their best since Marbles! :)

Another Music In A Different Kitchen – Buzzcocks
Love Bites – Buzzcocks
I listened to these for obvious reasons. I switched the lights off and lay in the dark and listened to that classic debut album. These albums and those singles were so important and influential.

Shag Tobacco – Gavin Friday
I'm sure we all have albums like this. Albums that you really love but no-one else seems to! (I'm sure there must be other people to love this – I just haven't met them!) Definitely one of my fave 90's albums.

The Now Now – Gorillaz
I may be wrong but I seem to recall this getting mixed reviews. I really like. Just one of those really ENJOYABLE albums!

Double Negative – Low
Good to see this getting album of the year in one of the magazines (Mojo I think). Definitely repays repeated listening.

Also...
Dubbing It Studio One Style - The Aggrovators

The World Of... - David Bowie

Gris-Gris – Dr John

Negative Capability – Marianne Faithfull

Rhythms - Goatman

Shadow People – The Liminanas

Compulsion Songs - Lucid Dream

If You Can Believe Your Eyes & Ears – The Mama's & The Papa's

Dub Soundclash – Lee Perry Vs Bunny 'Striker' Lee

R Born - Sweet Nico

And Nothing Hurt – Spiritualized

Sub Pop - V/A
