Insulin was discovered in 1921. Surely it’s made its way to Germany by now.

Referring to 20-odd years of inconvenience and disappointment as a ”sudden burst” is rather peculiar, pronouns notwithstanding.

Double jabbed, as are most of my Swedish compatriots. Idiots gonna idiot, though, intensive wards filling up with morons. Let them pay.

instead of
"see the buildings crumble, see the empires fall"

”see”, both in my book, FWIW.

Just imagine what The Sisters could do with an actual bass player (really?) and an actual (gasp!) drummer.

Sweden represent. One of the worst band names ever possibly/likely has obscured one of the greatest sleaze pop/rock bands ever.

"Marianne" is noted in pencil by Ezra Pound alongside T S Eliot's original draft for "The Waste Land". Also note the familiar line "Mein Irisch Kind, wo weilest du?" in the same stanza.

... Vision Thing was released. So, how are you passing the time, waiting for the next one to arrive?

That said, I can't for the life of me think of why the guitarists can't be replaced as well. Should sound as ok as a the synth bass and drums have done all these years. Digitised guitars save money. Not that anyone would care, anyways.

Not live, he wasn't.

New songs? Count me in!

�Everything after Zoon� *is* Mourning Sun. At least it’s an album of actual, new music. Not too shoddy either, I might add.

I like Bethlehem, the band. Not afraid of change.

The notion that Kenny Giles walks on water is, also, I believe, not the truth, at least hitherto unproven. Wouldn’t put beyond him, though.

This is how the s**t works over here :( http://www.live-dma.eu/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Sound-regulations-Sweden.pdf I’ve had my sorry eardrums shattered by the likes of Motorhead and Swans in the past, but as of lately it’s a joke. If you attend a show on a weekend, with the usual party-reve...

Given Sweden’s draconian laws on sound volume, how was the...sound volume? The performing band being drowned by mindless chatter has put me off concerts altogether as of lately.

It’s a top-25 of a band who recorded about 30 songs, so unlikely to stir up any emotions. Nice omissions, though, with the notable exception of YCBtO, by all standards known as the band’s finest hour.

Btw, if i may ask for, please renew bass player and drumer also, these days they are even more nostalgia than the rest of the team. Of course both in bits and bytes is fine. Oh, yeah! Eldritch, Marx, Adams, and Dave Lombardo! Or just get that Cult drummer with a Sisters shirt in that G’nR vid. Ge...

OTOH, tickets are bleedin' €47.

As of the last few years, this is the only subject that's managed to excite me on these boards. Draw your own conclusions.

Ah, the caption says "Above: Sunday Morning Below: The Policeman's funeral". Not the sharpest of photos, agreed.

Does it say "The Policeman's funeral"?

I found The Seer tedious at best, but the new album sounds really good. Less funk.

Preview.

Two things need to change: 1. Get a drummer. A hairy, sweaty beast of a drummer. Well, any drummer, that is. Throw a bassplayer in, while you're at it. 2. Incorporate "You Could Be The One" in the set. Then, count me in again. I'll give you no. 2 and half of no. 1. I'll settle for that. T...
