I will listen to/buy anything Aaron Turner does pretty much. Weirder the better.

So this.

Love knowing you're in this forum, dude.

Agreed! The next couple of months are going to be fantastic, musically. Melvins, OMG, Mamiffer, YOB, Earth, Pallbearer, Pink Floyd, Godflesh, Primus...

Good fucking point.

I listened to YOB on the way to work yesterday and nearly cried. So fucking powerful and crushing.

I'm not kidding, there's something about YOB that really gets me right in the feels. Incredible music.

For $500 you can hang out with Team Sleep while they record their new album.

Dear friends,

Please join us as we create our next record in Woodstock, New York. We’ll gather at Applehead studio, near the base of the Catskill mountains to eat, write, play and record. For a long time, business people, logistics, careers, adulthood, families and the House Republicans have thwarted us, but we’ve continued to make music. At the same time, the creative process has become increasingly fragmented and dehumanized. With that in mind, we’re very excited to get together with our dear friends, hang out, play music and have a unique experience in a beautiful place. We’d like you to be there, too. Your participation will be essential to the independent creation and release of the live performance and our forthcoming studio record; we look forward to seeing you. Check the link for more information.

YOU ALWAYS BEAT ME TO IT!!!!!!!

To mark the 20th anniversary of the release, in August 1994, of “Dummy”, Portishead will be re-issuing their landmark debut album on vinyl. “Dummy”, one of the most enduring and best loved records of the last 20 years, will be pressed on 180 gram heavyweight vinyl and presented in a gatefold sleeve.

There will be no additional material on the re-issue, with the songs remaining exactly as recorded on the original release.

I was going to throw up a little if it was a remaster, if there is one album that doesn't need it, it's this one (and a fuckton of others)

I also agree with this...

New video for Skeletonwitch's 'Unending, Everliving'

[Ravenpig]

^Good song good album

Steve Albini announced as keynote speaker for "Face The Music" in Melbourne November of this year. Fingers crossed he brings his band.

[not tyson]

Fingers crossed he skips Adelaide.

[liz]

Yeah good call. I always enjoy a weekend in Melbourne.

[hellboy]

I think it'll just be him as opposed to Shellac (I doubt he will bring them as well, doesn't seem to be his style), so I don't think I'd miss much. I'd certainly see him speak if he were in town, but no trip interstate is requirej for just a night with him slagging off record labels and pro-tools.

Steve is a really interesting character though, it would be a very entertaining key note I expect. People in Melbourne should go given the chance.

From Aaron Turner's blog:

Sumac is a new band, the core membership consisting of myself and Nick Yacyshyn (also of Baptists). We have completed our first record "The Deal" which will be released via Profound Lore (CD), and SIGE Records (LP) in Feb 2015. Bass on the album was done by Brian Cook (Russian Circles, Botch, etc), who will hopefully join us as an auxiliary/intermittent member for live performances when possible. We are pursuing this as a fully functional band rather than side project, with plans to play live in the coming year and continue with further writing/recording thereafter.

The album was recorded by Mell Dettmer at Litho and Aleph in Settle, with additional recording done at home. It was mixed by Kurt Ballou at God City, Salem, MA. Artwork is underway, a collaborative process between Faith Coloccia and myself - previews of that and audio clips to come in the next month or so.

Track titles are as follows:
1. Spectral Gold (03:26)
2. Thorn in the Lion's Paw (09:04)
3. Hollow King (12:26)
4. Blight's End Angel (10:19)
5. The Deal (13:34)
6. Radiance of Being (05:25)

my third post on the forum, and people already think i'm Mog, well, thanks

Take it as a compliment. Mog had a great knack for eliciting response which is a valuable skill on a forum.

Whilst I imagine Mog takes a look occasionally I doubt he spends much time doing it and posts like these will likely pass him by. The forum has lost from his departure. Like a band a forum is the sum of it's contributors. The cool thing about forums is it opens you up to communicating with people who are often quite different from those you encounter irl. I thought Mog was a dickhead when I first encountered him here. I still think that at times but like with many of you a deeper scratch reveals there is more to see. I had a high level of appreciation for him in the end, I enjoyed his forum company. Mog expressed himself well, was passionate about his music and principles, and provided me with many giggles. His banter with Tyson was great stuff.

Even the ugly is worth it's exposure. All we are is the sum of our experiences and an internet forum seems to me a fairly innocuous way of exploring our thoughts and human interactions in ways not as easily accessible in the real world. It's also a welcome thing to be able to tell someone to fuck off without reprisal. The words of war are also the words of peace and diplomacy.

[Kittaan]

Fuck off Liz!

Yeah, agreed.

[liz]

Fuck off Liz!

Yeah, agreed.

Did I say no reprisals? I lied!

[UndKeineZwEier]

God damn it!

This is neither the time nor the place!
