Alright, time for some discussion on what yr all listening too. My iTunes inventory is getting a little stale so I'm up for some inspiration.

Currently loving The Drones' album "Havilah".. incredible songwriting and some of the best recorded guitars and drum I've heard in a long time. I'm a little late to the party with this album but it's on high rotation at the moment and will probably stay there a while. I've seen these guys live once (Fowlers, Adelaide) and fortunately they're incredible on stage too. Can't wait to see them again.

@TBB
Thanks for the pitstop and service. After listening to all the crazy music you posted I am starting to feel my music is less odd than I thought. :)

fark @Goldie tbb has some tricks.. and the private armies addition.. (not to mention the pirates), based on the private armies sounds, some hump-day mellow fun:

for the phaser (listen to the snare tone cycle gradually):


for the post punk phaser ambient bass driven:

for the left-of-main post-nico scando vowels:

(that top one @surf.rat, susumu yokota (rip), the master,
i'd go, um.. 'operatic found-sound ambient pastiche'
for the albums of his below.. damon albarn's wet dream..

if you have a beanbag and a mellow headspace handy sometime, give these a listen, sakura (2000), and and the boy and the tree (2002).. full albums:

Great stuff basesix...New Age Steppers had some magic tricks alright
tbb chanced the LP on the epic bone pointing > Fade Away single...have LP/Single set.
Scored that Private Armies as a Reward for respecting the message.
Crew should check Vid / LP + Love Forever...but tbb has no say in the matter...

Ari Up's intervention overrides Goldie Punkz tripout devotion
2009 Feral Slits dedication wins the Gold Mushie Award for earthy Hippie Chix cred...
Fuckin' stoked to dig up this Feral Hippie Chix Yard Punk Gold Mushie Rummage
Go fetch the Pot...sip on this brew crew...feel better now!
This is about as real as the Up You / FU message can get...
Aint not steppin' around this Mother Earth Anthem.
Recapping > 30 years on the Slits reunite to dig up New Age Steppers {World Ultimatum}
Point the bone at all us less than worthy Punkz & Hippies...for the cause of course!

this episode of spick n specks shows Ari Up having a very, very nice time during the Slits' March 2007 Oz tour. Even Weird Al is relaxed and non-acerbic (though the exchange between him and Ari at 10:40 is a crack up.. more sardonic than acerbic). Good episode. Yankovic palindrome song to finish.
