Kylesa - everything up to the past two albums, and those are next - good video (interview then show):
http://www.wdr.de/tv/rockpalast/extra/videos/2008/0216/kylesa.jspPeter, Paul & Mary - s/t 1962 - came for "Early in the Morning", but stayed - beautiful folk album.
Faust 2009-2010 official studio bootleg - collection of oddities, like any Faust album - "An english woman's dream" is a really nice track I hope to hear again many times; a successful track of thoughtful atmosphere with tribal/Native American spiritual spinnings in both flute and percussion - "Fresh Air" is a typical, enjoyable krautrock cruiser of a song with good energy and notable momentum.
Burned Up Bled Dry - Cloned Slaves for Slaves 1998 - forgot how much I like this band - has that hefty His Hero is Gone leanings - had me grabbing for the other 7" (which I realized I do not have) and the Rash of Beatings 7"; trying to relive one of the best HC shows I've ever experienced.
BG - The Congratulations 2002 - post-Burned Up Bled Dry - always liked it, but also found it difficult in ways - enjoy it more now than I have in the past.
Running for Cover - Dark Well 2008 - smoking power-violence album with a [sometimes] annoying outro; I dug it this listen - holding down the roots to power-violence with fury and might, but progressively so.
Altercation - demo 1987 - raw, classic NYHC.
Roedelius - Offene Turen 1982 - love it and hate it; depends on when you play it - can't listen to one song or wish it was twice as long - oddball synth pop that sounds like a lot of it is a track taken out of a song and isolated - also sounds like edits for song ideas; like a notebook entry for songs yet constructed - playful and very 80s - engaging and infectious at times - not quite as good as some of the Moebius albums with similar reactions, but good overall.
ABC Diabolo - Give Rise to Doubts 1995 - talk about something possibly ahead of its time. crossover prog HC. still has that crossover thrash feel of their 1st album, but the songs are like an advanced His Hero is Gone or Result insofar as songwriting. smart album.
Roedelius - Wenn Der Sudwind Weht 1996 - more of the great same - another recommended album (if in the appropriate mood).
Spacecraft - Paradoxe (1978) - French krautrock - guitar and synth duo with a drum machine (used sparingly) - good floating and cosmic guitar ala Manuel Gottsching - warm, sci-fi synth sound like you'd find with the greats Klaus Schulze and Tangerine Dream with a slight hint at what would come with Moebius and Roedelius in the next couple of years - like this album a lot.
*Skull - demo 2012 - Swedish death metal with a simple crust approach (I hear Skitsystem type ideas).
*Kaos SS - Life-Ill 2012 "Bringing chaos and k-beats into norwegian hardcore" - silly, but accurate enough.
*Katechon - demo 2012 - good death metal - like the way the cymbals sound on this recording.
*Katechon - Rehearsal 2011 - not good.
*Sexy Police - unreleased EP 2011 - good death metal with that rich Swedish sound and heavy riffs and a solid dose of grind - not many get the death/grind thing right, and they did here.
*all free downloads on Bandcamp
