I'll check JJ out too. Been playing that album by The Acid on Spotify the last hour. Brilliant stuff. Sounds like Thurston Moore embracing dance.

Ha! i know exactly what you mean. 936 is one of my all time favourite albums. When I heard this one I was shocked. I think you're being harsh on her vocals. She can sing OK. The lyrics are hilariously bad but they always were. No different from New Order when Bernard Sumner took the helm. Or The...

I don't think Kozelek gives a shit about what happenend on stage. He's just seen an oppportunity and he knows it will get him some publicity like that Guardian article. Fair point though, the reviewer's comment wasn't childish but a bit silly. Does it really debase Kozelek's album? As for the...

Fantastic album. Been playing it alongside the new Peaking Lights effort which is also astounding (they've gone all Fever Ray). Even the short experimental ones like Dive and Julia Brightly work really well. Buzzer I'll check out Liminal by The Acid. Sounds right up my alley.

Kozelek is the only one laughing. he's got the publicity he wanted. Anyone whose watched him play over the years knows what he's about and this is another classic. What surprises me is how many people fall into the trap. Comments like "it tarnishes the lustre of Benji" and the like are much more...

And the new Raveonettes album is insanely good. Number two on my list for the year now.

Finally got round to getting this album. It's really good although he does actually say that he was returning to a pre-EBTG sound in his own mind. I actually loved his Buzzin' Fly DJ stuff but this is excellent in its genre. Reminiscent of Roddy Woomble and Mike Scott in their more acoustic solo...

It seems to tire late on but can't argue with the first three quarters. As you say Goshen 97 is brilliant as much for the lyrics too.

Has an album called Heal by Strand of Oaks been mentioned yet? Just stumbled across it and its ****ing amazing.

Hey you *******s is one of his best. That Desertshore album is quality. Hard to even list his recent work in order. It's that good. But what he does best for me is create something that's special. That ability to understand what it is to have people around you and appreciate them for what they...

The Sun Kil Moon album is just the latest of a slew of work from Mark Kozelek. He's been in the form of his life but has lately settled on reminiscing about his childhood and what he he has learned. It's uncomfortable at times, but brilliant. The Richard Ramirez song is amazing. And the song...

Agree absolutely. I'm struggling with St Vincent. I'm sure it's great but it does seem a bit up its arse.
