Holy shit!!

Reverend Canaan Banana The book 'Remarkabilia' was a favourite of mine when I was a nipper. Crammed with great names. Philadelphia Bunnyface Humperdink Fangboner Verbal Funderburk Lucious Pea Comfort Bottom Satisfy Bottom Through-Trial-And-Tribulation-We-Come-At-Last-To-Heaven Slappe etc...

Had my best ever acid trip in the countryside a couple of months ago & listening to this was by far the most powerful musical experience. Completely sank into it & the music opened up incredibly. The psychedelic power had something to do with the richness & complexity of each discreet sound...

Hi Zhao, your blog looks amazing. I'd love to hear some of the Spectralist stuff you posted but the downloads links seem to have expired. Any chance you could re-up them? I've been listening to nothing but minimalist stuff for the past couple of months & this stuff seems right on my...

ANIL SHITOLE? LOL, etc!! I quite like 'Nitin Shitole' as well. I thought you only got them on your head?? 'Ram Shitole' is a classic too.

God, it does sound good. I like every movie he's made. Remember when we projected Showgirls all over the walls at that gay sex night after not sleeping for about three days?? I hallucinated kaleidoscoping titscapes for days afterwards. Still do. Every time I close my eyes ... :eek: PS...

(Revealing my age) I remember the Bitmap Brothers using a Bomb the Bass remix of John Carpenter's Assault on Precinct 13 for Xenon 2: Megablast on the ST in 1989, then using John Foxx to do the music for Gods a couple of years later. Flashback!! They were the first coders to try & brand...

The only thing remotely interesting about him is the fugliness and/or deformities of his wives. If he was a Godzilla monster he'd be a gigantic 500ft cunt that menaced cities by flailing at them with thousand-lobed tentacle cunts, each terminating in a malevolent toothed cunt singing Wonderful...

I think that's why I like it. & I think that's what makes it the opposite of 'dry'. It has a feverish quality, & for all its mental-illnessness, it has a weird super-paranoid deja vu-ish ring of truth about it ... feels like someone saying something that really needed to be said. Fuck me if I...

Agreed. House of Leaves is fantastic, & a real page-turner. Revolutions sits on my booksheft, unread except for a good thumbing when I first got it. I'll get round (ha!) to it sooner or later if I can still that part of me that can't really be arsed. & Valis is top Dick.

I'd forgotten that his last words in that interview with Paxman were, "I don't believe we were put here to be comfortable". God bless him!!

Yeah ... maybe that's what I was seeing in Dawkins' face. I think this was the interview: Dunno why it struck me so much, but there's something about the glibness of his monotone & the emptiness of his engagement that makes me want to run screaming & wringing my hands into the nearest church...

Dawkins used to be a creepy child-man, all bouncing energy & Johnny Ball-esque wide-eyed enthusiasm. Like a primary school teacher trying to show the kids how 'cool' nature is, & isn't it all FANTASTIC!!!! Patronising fucker with his laughable job as a professional talking head. Idiotically...

Well sniff it up then, there's a good sick boy :p

Good call on Jandek & 666Mafia. How about Nico? Some of her later live stuff with the harmonium is soul-shrivellingly creepy & desolate. The Microphones can really make your ears wilt too.

I may just have screwed up body chemistry, but a little bomb of speed usually does exactly that for me. Perks me up, lowers inhibition, increases attention, focus & sociability. How about coffee & a cigarette? :D

I haven't ... loved Valis though. In ideas, he definitely blows Asimov's pedestrian predictions out of the water, for sure. Actually you're probably right. It's not fair to compare Dylan's herky jerky eccentric style to Asimov's bland characterlessness. But I stand by my Jack Vance / Pixies...

Asimov is Bob Dylan. Great ideas, voice like a frog with throat cancer. Now, Jack Vance ... Jack Vance is The Pixies. Meaningless genius. Asimov never wrote a page as good as anything in Planet of Adventure.

Best TV series ever, along with the first series (& final episode) of Twin Peaks. Total babbling genius. & genuinely psychedelic. "A,B&C" is the best episode, I think. It's like 120 Days of Sodom in the mind of Prince Charles, as terrifying as that sounds. & it's as beautifully made &...
