Got mine from 'Burning Shed' at £105 and delivered 48 hours laterSilver_Owl wrote: ↑02 Oct 2020, 11:41 @Big Si That looks awesome. Bit pricey though!
Have you read Stephen Morris's book (part 1)?
I've not got round to it yet.
Now Sold Out and all the other Websites i've seen were selling it for a lot more. £148 from them if I'd wanted the 4x (remastered) 12" singles thrown in as well.Rather impressed with the 'Extras' CD ("Cheetham Hill Rehearsal Rooms" Recordings, John Peel Session, New York and Blue Monday Demos), i've listened to it about 8 times today
I've got and read all 3 of Hooky's Books and my Elder(ly) Sisters copy of Barney's Book, which I found rather disappointing. Will need to get round to it, but cautious in case it's just "Bernard Mk II"....
I flippin' love this band to bits

Damn, that’s all kinds of good.

The most successful tyranny is not the one that uses force to assure uniformity but the one that removes the awareness of other possibilities, that makes it seem inconceivable that other ways are viable, that removes the sense that there is an outside.

I now right? It's practically impossible to buy their records though. No bandcamp, website's store is bare. Just itunes downloads which are rubbish quality.

Yeah, I just bought the singles available via iTunes. Looks like they are still around though. Thanks for posting this - I really like it.

Kinda wish I'd known about it in advance. Would have been tempted at that price.Big Si wrote: ↑02 Oct 2020, 19:41Got mine from 'Burning Shed' at £105 and delivered 48 hours laterSilver_Owl wrote: ↑02 Oct 2020, 11:41 @Big Si That looks awesome. Bit pricey though!

Yeah, loved all of Hooky's memoirs - he pulls no punches.
Bernard's is...well...insipid at best innit?
Just came upon this by chance, on The Sacred Bones label...Says they were inspired by NMA and Southern Death Cult.
It seems to be a grower. They certainly do what they do with conviction.

Been rediscovering shoegaze & dream pop of late.
I think this could be my favourite song so far this year

Great name for a band - one of those "I really wish I'd thought of it" things. It's Kid Congo Powers (who I assume needs no introduction), Mick Collins (Dirtbombs), and Bob Bert (Sonic Youth/Chrome Cranks). It sounds exactly like a band with these three should sound. I like it.
