Thee Silver Mount Zion Memorial Orchestra & Tra-La-La Band 13 Blues For Thirteen Moons

Necessary, child of our times. Honestly, it’s really ripped my tortelli apart and I had to stop halfway through. Sorry, but I think I have some sort of allergy to what is usually called post-rock (GYBE, Sigur Ros, Mogwai, Explosions, etc...) even if, looking closely, this goes a bit further. Instead, I'm rambling about Louisville from Spiderland onward.

Tonight's listening strongly recalls the expansive guitar style of Colour Haze. It's a Los Sounds De Krauts (bowing) in a more experimental and jammy version than it already was. Promoted.

I’m downloading it. As always, thanks for the heads up.

A record that's a bit of a blow of experimentalism and noises in the bolas, but it’s been a while since I listened to it. I have the edition with the first two discs together (which, by the way, I think are both out of print), and I remember very little apart from a killer track that I think was called ruckzuk or something like that, I don't feel like checking. Trans Europe Expresso cold? I think it's exciting.

I say: down with Candlemass, long live Trouble (and Saint Vitus, Pentagram, etc. etc.).

I had missed this one. A beautifully raw little disc without any affectations. I didn’t think you were into the so-called stoner revival as well. By the way, quick tip: Radio Moscow's self-titled album, released last year; it's like Cream and Blue Cheer with a killer sound and groove.

I can't stomach this stuff (same goes for the Incredible String Band). I mean, it's not that I don't like it, but after 10 minutes, I start yawning non-stop. I don't know, folk-prog or whatever you want to call it just isn't for me. For fans of the genre, I think it's a can't-miss gem. Ole, do the folks at Repertoire pay you?

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds Dig, Lazarus, Dig!!!

You can tell he has been through Grinderman, but it's not as raw and straightforward (the Bad Seeds are a well-oiled machine). A couple of tracks are really catchy (Today's Lesson being my favorite), the single is quite ugly.

I have heard the double "Turn" (it's wave) and the collaboration with Tortoise (beautiful), they seem very different from how you describe them here. They have done a ton of stuff.
