@Johnny – Let’s see if it is indeed on a new album Neigh!, as listed on the Small Boats cover. If not, email me at jyotipunj at hotmail dot com
[SPOILER ALERT]
@otherdemon – after a longish almost Hawkwind-like atmospheric intro it leaps into a solid driving psychedelic, motorik-like rhythm with psych Snah vocals and a mid-song instrumental section. 5 min 39 sec. It sounds like it could have fit on Yay! or any one of a half dozen other albums. I love it!Aside from Psycholab, I listened to the first CD of Small Boats this morning. Not only a great choice of songs, but they flow excellently.
I just got home from Rough Trade (West London). I queued for about half an hour to get in. They had received only two copies of the CD, one of which had already been sold, and the other had the barcode scratched through and someone’s name wrtten on the cover. I was offered the vandalised one for free, which I obvioulsy accepted. I love the new track, Psycholab. And the tracklist is excellent – well done to English Psychonaut Simon Keeler for compiling it. Also, the cover artwork is brilliant, very humorous.
@Krist – I knew in advance that the shop, Rough Trade, were being strict with their Record Store Day one-copy-only policy, but you should be able to order at their online store. Good luck.@punknotyet – YES! Fragments and HMB2 would also definitely be very welcome additions.
I’m very pleased with this development. Having been a relative latecomer, there are numerous releases I was unable to purchase. Admittedly, I managed to acquire a few through less legitimate channels, but it has always been my hope that the band would use their Bandcamp account to make some of the less easily accessible material available for download. Now I can start buying this stuff, add it to my collection, and put a few more pennies in the band’s bank account.
The one re-release I would really like to see is Child of the Future. I don’t generally buy vinyl, unless it comes with a CD or downloads. So, as well as the singles and EPs getting released, I’m hoping this great album will also be rereleased on Bandcamp.
Many thanks to Wulf and all the other tapers, as well as those who do post-production work. And many thanks to Bernie, too.
As I’ve had to pull out of four of the last six MP shows I’ve had tickets for, and on top of that had two UK shows cancelled, I am deeply grateful for the oportunity to at least hear some of those shows and others.
@ThorEgil – thanks!
@suntripper – the news (via an interview in Italy) is that they’ll be heading into the studio in November with Olaf and January with Ingvald. Add to that another trip to India in January, and I think it’s fair to say they’re not slowing down at all! Apparently, the drummer situation, as I understand it based on what Bent said in the interview, is that there is no permanent drummer – only hired guns. Sadly, I can’t find the interview now. Maybe someone else can post it.
@ bernie. As always, many many thanks for your hard work and dedication to recording, collecting, preparing and publishing these videos – yours and others.
Hi folks,
I still have a ticket for Tilburg and one for Utrecht that I can’t use. Anybody want one or both? I’ve just listed them on Ticketswap, but if anyone here wants one, let me know and I’ll email it.Hi all. Sadly I’m not going to be able to make the tour this time around. I had tickets for all three NL dates (Tilburg, Utrecht, Zwolle), as well as Eurostar and rooms booked. But we’re moving home and I can no longer make it. Thankfully, I’ve been able to postpone my train ticket at no cost and cancel the rooms, also at no cost. This leaves me with tickets. I’ve already passed on the Zwolle ticket, which leaves me with one for Utrecht and one for Tilburg.
So … anybody interested in a ticket for Utrecht and/or Tilburg? If so, DM me at jyotipunj at hotmail dot com. Pay what you can, or pay it forwards.
Fantastic new album from British band The Fierce and the Dead. Having formerly only released intrumental albums (angular, King Crimson-ish, tricksy, layered), the band take a left turn and release a bunch of songs with vocals! And what vocals! Goodness knows where Kevin Feazey has been hiding his voice all these years, but this new sound is a triumph. Plus, TFATD are great bunch of blokes!
