• I HATE MUSIC

  • WHAT ARE YOU LISTENING TO AND WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO SAY ABOUT IT?

carrying over a few from the old forum and adding a couple:

Fruited Planes - "Introducing The Moth Eggs" - Fabulous Portland, OR band that is new to me and surprising! Loose, groovy, psych rocknroll jams from ex-Monoshock, Jackie O Motherfucker folks...would've been on my 2024 best of list - can't stop listening to this...

Donna Allen - Atom-ic Citizen of the Dying Empire - newest full length from Chronophage singer/songwriter. Really lovely alt-folk, alt-country.

Spleen - II - newest demo or cassette or whatever on Roachleg Records - members of Puffers - arty, post-punk, brings Wipers to mind.

Abwärts - Anon Koma - debut LP from 1980 from this amazing German punk/post-punk band. Don't know why these guys have alluded me for so long - top shelf stuff with future Einsturzende Neubauten folks.

Guiding Light - s/t - rather cool, high energy, brittle, wave/punk from Austin, TX - great stuff!

    TomDash Fruited Planes stuff sounds really great. Had not heard of before seeing the previous post. Scott Derr rules.

      Anyone check out the new Son of Dribble? just gave it a cursory listen this afternoon, no opining yet but will be back to it.

      ever/never Hunches - Exit Dreams // Sounds as good today as yesterday.

      man i haven't listened to the hunches in ages... i was obsessed with exit dreams, obsessed with that guitar tone.. really played it to death and scratched the record to shit haha. nice reminder to revisit them.. hobo sunrise & exit dreams at least

        TomDash Yeah thanks for hepping us to the Fruited Planes - I jammed it yesterday and really liked it. First thought was Bevis Frond but more...uhm, Pacific Northwest...🙂

        For chilling yesterday evening: The Invisible Hands - The Big Minute yesterday. It's Alan Bishop and some Egyptian guys. I seem to listen to/enjoy the post-SCC stuff more than the original group although I have had some out-there stoned listenings of SCC albums...

        Waking up with Bud Powell - The Amazing Bud Powell

            Listened to the new Lothario album, while doing laundry yesterday, followed by some Germs. Thought it went well with what I was doing.

              Sukebe_GG wish I could find actual Fruited Planes tapes. it is great stuff

              Today:
              Country Teasers - Pastoral 10"
              Toe Rag Sessions Lp
              Spending some time with early Teasers. Still great. Still unique.

              Urinals - Negative Capavility comp. : the studio disc rules so hard having all their stuff in one place

              Workers Comp - Lp definitely Chilton vives, but with a Ron House vocal sensibility. Really great.

              Pharaoh Sanders - Thembi : i love how this goes from meditative sounds shapes to free blowing/flowing from tracks mixed together.

                  Spinning some recent Neon Taste stuff (sick label)

                  Jug - ...Or Not 7" - sloppy (ish) mid tempo punk music

                  Closetalkers - Path To Peace 7" - cool Canadian d-beat type hardcore

                  I dunno. I'm a simple man when it comes to punk music.

                  I just heard a really shitty cover of We Didn't Start The Fire on my work radio...

                  THE PUKE from PA!

                  Also last night I suddenly wanted to hear some Luna. Hadn’t strongly felt that feeling before.

                    pre-arthur russell era. there needs to be a necessaries reissue campaign

                    The first Hunches album

                    Sukebe_GG Yeah, that Fruited Planes is special - I LOVE that Invisible Hands debut LP. They made it to the West Coast once, wish they would come East...

                        ever/never Alvarius B - That's How I Got To Memphis (& Other Egyptian Love Songs) // Alan Bishop does buncha covers running the gamut from Tom T. Hall to Cleaners From Venus and nails 'em all obviously, pretty straight and sincere, jerks a few tears if yr so inclined.

                        Would love to hear this. He seems to be championing the lost art of the troubadour a lot lately (least judging by his playlists on Stegi Radio) - nice to know he's walkin the walk too.

                        Thinking of this has me revisiting his bizarre shit talking sound collage transmission that came out on Nashazphone a few years back. GASP that was 8 years ago.

                          ExpKind Ha Ha, I went on an extened tirade when I saw the actual packaging. The real kicker is that there is still a stupid black border when you open the gatefold.

                          as for what I have been listening to:
                          The Sewerheads - Despair Is A Heaven
                          Lavender Flu - Tracing The Sand By The Pool
                          Son of Dribble - Poking A Hole In A Bag Of Tears
                          The Saints Box
                          The Flatlanders - All American Music
                          X - Beyond & Back anthology
                          Great Plains - pretty much everything
                          Thomas Jefferson Slave Apartments - pretty much everything
                          Retail Simp$ - Order of the Dirty Plates 7"

                              LACK OF INTEREST - split 7" w/ Spazz, Trapped Inside LP
                              Maybe the most pissed band ever. All tracks

                              anyone here holding the first two split 7" and wants to sell for non-Discogs prices, please get at me!

                              this new Seudo Youth 12" kinda rips, vox are a bit jarring at first, but they def work

                                Just spun a duo of newish comps by 90’s greats
                                Sentridoh - Really Insane
                                Bardo Pond - Melt Away

                                sicboy I was just talking about this record today and how I need to check it out. Glad to see Going Underground still kicking

                                    Randall The cover art is certainly a....decision haha
                                    But the songs are good!

                                      Hey just a question. Were you in The Whines?

                                      I'd so love to hear this lost LP.
                                      Any chance you'd send it to me? Won't drop it online. Won't send to anyone else. You have my absolute word. But I was a huge proponent for the Whines. Grabbed insane okay and Both hell to pay and that split with burning yellows . My ex gf and I were obsessed . Also why did the band end and the record not get released? Inquiring minds would like to know

                                      But Whines are some of my favorite music. Would be honored if you'd be cool with hooking me up knowing it's literally for my ears only

                                          should have sent this as a PM but i cant edit or delete those messages? i can on others but no option on those two

                                          I've been listening a lot some songs from the "Star Charms" comp on Inscrutable Records. Overall it's fine but what puts it apart for me are two of the Good Flying Birds songs "Pulling Hair" and "Last Straw" are amazing.

                                          This ZAMDANE song on repeat today :

                                          French cloud rap that everyone here seems to know about (except I who just came across it yesterday).

                                          Wine Punk!

                                          Tha ks for the tip. really digging this

                                              Guy Lombardont I am not a member of the band, just am a big fan too. Was fortunate to befriend Jessie Gandy, alias Jimmy Dean Sausage, (instagram) when we were both living in Eugene, OR. Let me know if you cannot message him on instagram (Im sure it would be great for him to hear from you) and I can. However, last I checked he is still unable to get the digital files-although has the tapes.

                                                  Clif I learned about this demo from DX substack-- recommended by @BARELY HUMAN -- I believe he is writing about wine a bit there. Must admit that glass looks nice ans cold. It's summer down there right?

                                                    paperhose I was pretty excited by that SMV song too. Looking forward to more 👍

                                                      Is this Gits reissue on Sub Pop worth it? I'm completely unfamiliar with the band. I've been seeing it mentioned a lot in various places.

                                                        Been having a blast going through all these extended Mick Hobbs projects, who I only learned of after he died few weeks back. Officer, the Lo Yo Yo, the Work to name a few... he also played in Half Japanese in the mid 2010s. Anyone else a fan? Similar territory as Slap Happy and the Red Crayola. Genius shit!
