    Oh OK, I thought Catalog lived near South Emsall for some reason. What kind of (non-Japanese) bar serves sake but NOT rum??

    Catalog's Yorkshire, though, isn't he?

    Great, he just deleted his post saying I was cool for remembering Jilly's Rockworld.

    Bothered? I offered to come before! I've been to Manchester before, you know. Saw a soca band in Band On The Wall and went to Jilly's Rockworld, even.

    CENTRE LABELS

    The only disco LP my mum owned was Nightflight To Venus - the first 11 minutes is one of the greatest openings to any album ever. I only had Kings Of The Wild Frontier to compare it to, but the electric drums on this are incredible - they hit you right in the gut, on vinyl, and I still love the...

    UNCUT (UK) - The 200 Greatest Goth Albums (2025)

    Wouldn't expect anything from Uncut, and can't be arsed to argue about which ones patently aren't 'goth', but producing a 200-list without any mention of Blood & Roses or The Drowning Craze takes some chutzpah.

    Owls

    In the King James version of the Bible, Isaiah 34.14 informs us: “The wild beasts of the desert shall also meet with the wild beasts of the island, and the satyr shall cry to his fellow; the screech owl also shall find for herself a place of rest”. The Amplified Bible is more explicit...

    RATE: characters/plot/style/ideas in novels & plays

    Style higher for me. Examples that come to mind are Jim Thompson and Chester Himes; you can get the same plots from most crime pulp of the time (and similar characters) but they blew it over the rooftops. Imagine Cormac Mc Carthy writing The Getaway, it would have been garbage.

    Intoxication log

    Train doors slammed shut, disabled child's scarf was trapped in the door, women screaming in panic, useless idiot commuters sitting there gawping, train started moving...you had to punch a hole in the glass of the door to stop it. Or just say "Bike accident" and change the subject. No coming...

    LED ZEP

    Immigrant Song for me too - probably the only one I like. There's a brilliant, fucked-up cover version of IS by an Aussie band called Slub, with misheard/improved lyrics, but I don't think it's online - female singer keening like a wronged valkyrie. The only ones I know are Kenneth Anger...

    OK, no bullshit, just entered another Mill Hill pub, the Adam & Eve...having a pint of Orchard Thieves (cider, nothing special) Bit of a gastro pub so will be off after this one (who wants to smell gravy when you're drinking?) but saw a table marked 23 and thought "nah, no chance" so sat at...

    Tempted but I feel ordering lager top here will be like clinking my glass and asking everyone to join me in a chorus of "Chase me Charlie"
