4080Peru

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Now that is a WOW!

I listen to more JR than Mr.E these days and I'm fortunate enough to have witnessed a 4080 Peru performance.

Is this a live performance or just the film ?
The soundtrack I've heard is just an ambient yawn fest a million miles removed from his earlier brilliance.

He was up onstage then at the bar next to me when I saw it.

Late to the party again, but I'm glad someone else said this. I listened to the 4 downloadable 4080 Peru tracks on James Ray's website and quite simply don't get it. Yawnfest doesn't even begin to cover it. Have I missed something or is there something that is supposed to make these 57-bleeding-minute long pieces approach relevance?!?

Played the Dios Esta album on the way to work this morning and was reminded of just how much I love what the Gangwar and Performance used to do.

What happened?

These tracks here @4080peru ? The video seems to be on YouTube, clearly not a piece for fast consumption ...

Oh yeah. All that stuff is fortunately still (or again, rather) available at James Ray's Official Site... plus all the MK Ultra and Longfolk stuff ... ;D ;D ;D ...

Manhattan Smile and Justice for Judass are epic, unlike Mr.E Eric still has it.

He does and at least he is still active creatively unlike Baldy with his non-singing and fed up guitarists. Even his MacBook worker has pissed off.

Thanks. Those are indeed the 4080 MP3s I've got. I tried the film as well, and again, simply don't get it.

What are the Manhatten Smile and Justice for Judass tracks James Blast refers to? If they are the same "not the good Eno"(!) style I'll pass. If they are epic in the Rev Rev Lowrider sense count me in.

Will give that piece on the JR website (where I got the majority of his music from, although found a bunch of the old EPs for £3 a pop in Edinburgh recently) a read later on (entirely off topic, but wife gave birth to our first baby yesterday, so Heartland access even more sporadic than usual). :D

They're excellent, that's all you need to know.

I got a 12inch of James Ray Gangwar - Without Conscience / Destination Assassination for 50p in the Music & Video Exchange in a Birmingham yesterday.
They had 2 copies - so 1 left at 50p if any is in the area and fancies a bargain!
