Mostly Other People Do The Killing - Slippery Rock David Grubbs - The Plain Where The Palace Stood I love MOPDTK and Grubbs too, I'll have to check those out, didnt know either even had new albums. 'Slippery Rock!' was late 2012, I think, but MOPDTK do have a new (even newer) album out: 'Red Hot'. ...

Actually the name is not 'Earache' but 'Earrach', which is, quite innocently, Irish/Gaelic for 'spring' (the season):
http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/earrach

Original title: 日本春歌考 (Nihon Shunka-Kō)

Nihon = Japan
Shun = spring, literally, but also used for erotic things
Ka = song
Kō = think

--> 'reflections on Japanese erotic songs', more or less

I made a top 100 but will stick to, I dunno, 30 titles here. The order, as usual, hardly means anything at all. If you can't find your record here, it's because it happened to be no. 31: sorry. Compilations not included (but shout out to the Wandelweiser box, of course). - Keith Rowe – Erstlive 011 ...

and now once more with metal included please.

If I had allowed multiple discs, it would have been in mine, as would Good Morning Good Night and Erstlive 005.
Just didn't seem fair to the rest...

Reverorum Ib Malacht "Urkaos" on Ajna .. A long-winded note on this one: I'm still digesting this, but without hyperbole, I have to say that this album (like the Negative Plane) seems to sum up everything I'm interested in about black metal -- it's distant, muffled, cold, and filled with outsider b...

That list will be a great inspiration in 2012, thanks Dan. Anyone want to take a crack at a top-whatever of films released in 2011? (realizing of course that this is much more difficult at this date, and that by the time one gets to see a new film it is often already 1 year or more old, technically....

Here's my list (putting them in any kind of sensible order is of course impossible, so no real attempt at that has been made and from about no. 11 on the order is probably best disregarded completely). I only received 'E.E. Tension and Circumstance' on 30 Dec (listening to it for the 4th time as we ...

No CD release in the works?

Fie upon me, I should have known that Being anal about such things, I'll clarify that the Greek pronunciation of the letter is 'fee'. I don't know what the official Erstwhile pronunciation is, but I'll be sticking with the original in any case. actually in classical Greek, it really is ph, with an ...

I have read them all and enjoyed them all (and wondering what the Wachowski Brothers - or is it brother and sister now - will do to 'Cloud Atlas'), will just point out that the new one 'The Thousand Autumns of Jacob de Zoet' is very different from all the previous ones, more like a classic historica...

anyone know of a very cheap, not too smelly youth hostel in the vicinity? cheers!

great film, hardly an early Ozu though.
