Book: Waiting For Another War

[Pista]

@panzerfaust I too am curious to know what exactly got you banned from farcebook groups & "anywhere" else.

I was hoping to gently coax the review out of them, to see for ourselves what 'non-absolutely positive' translated as. 'The writer of this book needs shooting' or somesuch, at a guess. Reckon they've been put off now though. Ah well.

ah ok sorry. my bad. on the good side, if thats the case, its nice to know a straight-forward plainly-spoken threat still has some effect.

[panzerfaust]

haha very funny.

nope i learned my lesson that time and not gonna repeat it. but as seen, you can make it up yourself so please go ahead

so from that time i dont bother anyone online with my opinion of current lineup

only thing i recall is somebody asking which of the two books to buy.
i replied that one is america centered and has a lot of gossip and questionable lyrics interpretations.
somebody replied "are you talking about my husband"
to which i said nothin probably gave a thumbs up idk whos whos husband.

few months later i found im banned


and yes back in the days before release of all three books i complained about the postage to europe being excessive. that already prompted the author to refund me back my pre order and basically deny me to buy it off him. shoulda have taken notes. i didnt. i already got warning from the moderator for this act that i must not complain. so i didnt.

look where it got me.

[panzerfaust]

as said. i do not deny the authors right to deny his book to anyone he wants. its his full right no matter the reasons.
what i dont get is being kicked without a memo. but hey, im pretty sure theres a perspective where im just ungrateful and deserve it all, because i said somthing in the past

Sounds like a chain of misunderstandings to me somewhat based on say cultural differences ... ... hope you've received a copy by now ... ...

Thought I'd check in to HL and found this going on. Man, I love all you guys.

This guy's story is not accurate.

I edited this post so hopefully it won't derail the thread.

Thread derailment used to be almost compulsory here on HL.
A very Happy New Year to you, Caroline and the boys. XX

*Mod hat on*

If you & @bismarck have had a disagreement on an entirely different platform, then would you both please, for all our sakes, take it back there? Or, better still, kiss & make up.
Not having access to said farcebook group, I don't know what all this is about &, to be completely honest, I couldn't care less.
Either take it back there or somewhere else rather than squabbling on Heartland.
Thank you.

Long time no post on this thread....

What the current status of the book? I need to replace my copy (and I won't be lending it out this time) but the website looks like it hasn't had an update in forever. Anyone know if there are still copies of the third print run?

[bismarck]

This book is available from Rough Trade, eBay and directly from the website.

[dirtyassrocknroll]

Thought I would post in this thread as well just to see, but if you were the guy who told me at the 9/20 Brooklyn Paramount show that I looked like JG Thirlwell and gave me a copy of this book I am seeking you out to say thank you and that I did read it, finished reading it, and found it to be quite good.

[knightofthex]

On the insta of waitingforanotherwar there is a new teaser... Maybe bismarck can tell us more

[Andy W]

More. Soon. .... on the Facebook page.

[eastmidswhizzkid]

Trevor will let us know when something worth knowing is known. Hes's a very busy man! have you seen how fit his Mrs is??

That said, I felt really depressed when I'd finished it. Not the author's fault, of course! Just my bad luck in becoming a massive fan of The Sisters in 1990, when it was more or less all over bar the shouting. I really got into them in a big way - they meant so much to me as a teenager, and still do today. Emotionally and intellectually. We got some terrific songs out of it, which I'll always love. But whenever I think seriously about the criminal waste of talent it all was...About the three or four albums we could have had by now...The book really brought home how it was doomed from the start, pretty much, by Eldritch's personality.

This is virtually a word for word description of how i felt reading 'Paint My Name....' I was a few years too young to experience the 80-83 sisters, started buying their music in the FALAA years, but was still on the young side to see them live, and by the time I was, it was all in decline, and these classic lineups long gone.

I'd say Vision Thing is a much better album than the first one. I don't buy this it was better in the old days thing, even if it's all old days now I suppose. Floodland was a great album and many of the unreleased songs are excellent. didn't want to stay still and he didn't.

That's absolutely fair enough, - i think this will always depends on the type of music you're really into. I love it all, and listen to my least favourite (VT) more than any album by any other band, but the 80-85 will always be more my type of music, so will be my favourite, and the version i would have loved to have seen live.

If we're talking from a technical standpoint, then yes, of course VT, and FL are better, cleaner records. But i'd (personally) rather listen to Body Electric than anything off of either of those albums.

As I age I move closer and closer towards the early stuff, up to and including FALAA. I feel that the later stuff is more shine than substance. Their still stonking songs but they fail to give me that underlying emotion (whatever that means). I find myself becoming quite distanced from them.

Strange, but the opposite is true for my love of the Nephilm... I cant seem to get enough of them. Anyone else experience the same?
