    Stoner Rock that I will like

    I'm so glad this thread exists, as I've gone down exactly the same rabbithole after finding I really like Sleep and Electric Wizard - and then struggling to find anything else that satisfies me in the same way. One band I don't think has been mentioned yet is Ufomammut. I thought some of their...

    music from the last 72 hours

    I had an album released last friday on neotantra, so in the spirit of shamelessly plugging my own material:

    hand to mouth

    I spend my life worrying about money. Even when there's enough of it around for the immediate future, I start fantasising about losing my job etc. I should probably seek therapy but I can't risk the outlay. I had to give up freelancing work and find a 9-to-5 because the stress of not knowing...

    Russia Surrounded

    Supposedly they have blown up two more, which rather undermines their argument that they didn't blow up the first one.

    Primal Scream

    Yeah, never liked that weasily little scrote. Just looked like he'd steal your nans purse the moment you turned your back on him. Seems gut instinct was right.

    have you got a hairy back and shoulders?

    Yes, very.

    is music too middle class?

    Amazing, it appears we all come from the same small part of ex-Berkshire now-Oxfordshire as well (although that was before my time). I flew my kite on the Clumps, and tobogganed down it at frightening speeds.

    is music too middle class?

    I should point out that I was only messing about, I don't feel insulted at all. In fact I agree with everything you have said, and feel that strange pull of hating the very system I am paying to support - all thanks to my selfish genes.

    is music too middle class?

    Loves it. He's only 5 though so his wider world view is pretty limited. Reasons for sending him are exactly as you described. Struggling local schools with classes of 30 kids and no budget. Selfishly; what else would you do? My own upbringing in the 80's involved a close-kit village school in...

    is music too middle class?

    As a lower-middle class Englishman I have just about scraped together the funds to send my boy to private school, it's noodles for dinner for the next year but I've done it. But now you have made me feel like a right cunt Rich, so thanks for that.

    Moving Shadow - the full-length single-artist albums

    Moving Shadow LPs sit in an awkward twilight zone in my own development as a listener. It's like finding that old Iron Maiden cassette you bought when you were 12. It shaped you completely at the time but is now just embarassing. I remember being entranced by Industry & Bodyshock at the time of...

    Bojo

    It was surely an intentional bit of noise to deflect from all his other problems. Isn't that his conscious game plan? Stir up headline-grabbing gaffes and crazy nuggets of drama. Keep doing it week-in, week-out so that both the news and the public are overwhelmed and exhausted. Would he want...

    Glitchcore? Cybergoth? Post-hardcore? Breakcore? Weirdcore?

    At least Ross From Friends is getting people out dancing. In a room. Together. The irony of bashing this modern house trend as 'decontextualised white boy vanity projects' is that is EXACTLY what Break/glitchcore was. Doormouse, Shitmat, Alec Empire, Venetian Snares, Enduser, Bong-Ra, even...
