Battles - Mirrored
Dinosaur Jr - Beyond
Liars - Liars
Deerhoof - Friend Opporunity
Grinderman

syf 1 request
I desperately would like Steven Wright - I Still Have A Pony if anyone has picked up his new 2007 comedy album. Norm MacDonald's Ridiculous would be okay too, I suppose.
I'd also like to hear the new Foetus - Vein. Just let me know if there's anything you would like in return.

Overall it's been a great year - a lot better than the last couple IMO

Favourites:
Neurosis - Given To The Rising
Ulver - Shadows In The Light
Grails - Burning Off Impurities
Angels of Light - We Are Him
Six Organs Of Admittance
High On Fire - Death Is Our Communion
New Deathspell Omega
New Blut Aus Nord
Shining - V
The Hidden Hand - Resurrection Of Whiskey-Foot (may have been 2006..)
Sun Ra - Strange Strings (not new of course - but the first time widely available)
Charles Mingus & Dolphy - Cornell 1964 (unreleased until this year)

Only true letdown was the new Smashing Pumpkins...Yuck!

atari 2600 10.24.2007 11:35 AM

Too bad they won't have it at Wal*Mart where you work, eh?

You're the victim of my bit of a foul mood today, haha.

nicfit 10.24.2007 11:37 AM

atari you have that one? I'm thinking about the group, you know ;) ...

atari 2600 10.24.2007 11:47 AM

Okay, done.

nicfit 10.24.2007 12:11 PM

Uh I expressed what I meant too "cryptically", I meant I could up it if you wanted :D ! but thanksssss for the effort anyway :) .

atari 2600 10.24.2007 12:11 PM

I'm having one of those days.

Hmm, we both have skulls for avatars and are writing about a "group." tesla69 must be getting pretty paranoid haha.

demonrail666 10.24.2007 12:15 PM

Probably Bruce Springsteen's Magic. At first I wasn't that sure but after a few plays have grown quite attached to it.

Yeah!
And my skull has a cape to boost!
Yours is really nice, great use of human body (ies).

atari 2600 10.24.2007 12:32 PM

Dali photograph...in rotation will be Richter's Skull and SY's Halloween II art...

demon, this reviewer regards Magic as the best since The River

"Radio Nowhere" starts things off with a bang, and if someone doesn't dig "Livin' In The Future," then something's amiss.

That new Einsturzende Neubauten is AMAZING !!!! Will definitely make it to my top list of 2007.

atari 2600 10.24.2007 02:11 PM

I haven't listened to it (new E.N.) just yet, or the Zu & N.T. either.
