Incidentally (speaking of the album cover in Hom's post, above *cough* 
) - did you notice that our fake album covers are no worse - and, in many instances, are actually *better* - than the real thing (as regularly seen in the "Currently Listening To" thread)? Interesting, innit?

& those "designers" get paid a fortune for that crap.

Floodland is certainly an abominable cover. But onto more pressing matters...
Fearless Japanoise pioneer and avant-garde fugitive Kasatuyama Tochigi returns with his 37th offering. It follows the ear-shredding "untitled" trilogy of 2006, which featured numbered CD's, released in reverse order starting with the 3rd, as an artistic protest against what Tochigi describes as "the restrictive numerical structures which govern the post-industrial society". Well quite, who among us has never been tormented by the irritation of two inevitably following one and so on. "I feel an intense compulsion to dismantle such dogmatic constructs", opines Tochigi from beneath his wide-brimmed hat, a tortured frown just visible.
This CD represents a return to the stark precussive sculptures that made him such an influential name, echoing the merciless brutality of Merzbow and the caustic introspection of the new Slavic utilitarian electro-scapes.
Lyrically (and the lyrics are, as usual, sparse - hypnotic murmurings and terror-inducing screams punctuate the record), Tochigi takes the listener on an intestine-twisting psycho-voyage into the mind of a man who murders his victims by dissolving their very brains with samples of pneumatic drills. Heaven knows where he got that idea from.
In short, if you like Far-Eastern dystopian sound-gasms, you'll love this. Tochigi is an aural terrorist that the FBI can't stop.

Made me cry
The descriptions/ reviews are really complimenting the covers.
I have laughed so much today in this thread alone.

Swedish New Wave upstarts, Unisound are back with a "bonk" with this, their 5th LP, "Doesn't Come From Inside".
Littered with innuendo & double entendres, this CD is the alternative music equivalent of a Carry On film.
Lyricist, Lars Larssossesson tells us (in between giggling fits worthy of Babara Windsor herself), "This is supposed to be taken as a very tongue in cheek (oooer) poke (oooer) at the fiddling (oooer) going on in the music industry.
We hope to allow people to download (ooer) this LP in return for a squizz at their erses (oooer)."
Well, we couldn't continue the interview for girly giggling & so all that remains to be said is:
Track to download (oooer) : How To Make it Stop......................................................(oooer)

Unisound isn't a bad name for a band actually....

I thought so too. It's actually a recording studio in Sweden, but there's virtually bugger all else on the wiki page for it.Hom_Corleone wrote:Unisound isn't a bad name for a band actually....
I kinda like "Polar Cyclone" as a band name from Michael yesterday. & I still giggle uncontrolably when I read the blurb underneath it.

Mixed reactions to Song Cycle's second album, To See The Good. Created in only three days, thanks to a near-fatal indulgence in LSD, Merlot, and reruns of My Little Pony, this supposed nine-track opus repeats track one as track four, and track nine is merely the sound of Rodney Hillfriegger (synth and vocals) retching. Song Cycle's approach can be roughly compared to Sigur Ros pumped full of nitrous oxide and attempting to cover Californian deathrock whilst strapped to the wing of a 747 cruising at 30,000 feet.
Widely celebrated amongst the faux-new wave-anachronists culture, To See The Good has not achieved recognition in the mainstream - and is unlikely to, as nearly all production copies have been bought by the US Military as part of it's Aural Warfare program, and the sixteen members of Song Cycle have all been incarcerated in The Hague for multiple violations of basic Human Rights and the Geneva convention.
Epic.

Actually, we don't. The Art Directors sub work out and we get a penneth of what they earn. Also fads come and go so stay current.Pista wrote:& those "designers" get paid a fortune for that crap.

With a quiet hissing sound, Oxydoras seep under the door with their 3rd double LP in as many months.
One of the most prolific, post-punk, prog-synth, ballad band the world has ever known have produced yet another soundscape for us that will eat it's way into your head, your fridge & possibly your bank account(s).
Starting with the title track, Side Of A Brimming Mind is a heady trip back to those good old days of 2007 when fcuk all mattered, except to old people.
Track 2 is a 45 minute journey through the seedy world of life in the midlands of England.
Entitled "Birmingham" it is not likly to get too much airplay, but deserves more than just that.
Track to download: Birmingham (if you have the bandwidth).

Prolly got to be on another thread, but how can you "direct" art?James Blast wrote:Actually, we don't. The Art Directors sub work out and we get a penneth of what they earn. Also fads come and go so stay current.Pista wrote:& those "designers" get paid a fortune for that crap.
Isn't it supposed to be about expression that comes from within?
That mean there is some "director" chappie who decides what he/she does or doesn't want to see?
No offence intended btw.

Yes. It's not about making art, it's about selling a commodity. It's purely marketing, sadly.Pista wrote:Prolly got to be on another thread, but how can you "direct" art?

I don't know really. My brother was a graphic designer for a few years & I suppose he was in the field of "marketing" (he was working for a big drugs company) rather than art.
I had a thought about this thread & that was to have t-shirts made of totally ficticious bands.

<----- lost in space
anyhoo, a new effort from Blast Products 2008â„¢
no titles on sleeve, that would ruin the pic, but here's the blurb~
This, Kusanagi's 1st album (Lives of Noisy Desperation), doesn't hint at the majesty of 'document and eyewitness' the follow up. Don't expect the oriental name to mean things made of bamboo and string, this is an occidental wide-on attack of fuzz metal and, praise the Lord of Prog - Mellotron. Julian Cope said "I came, like in my pants, and Dorian was in the States visiting her Mum first time I heard this". Need there be a better recommendation?
