Quote from: FreakAnimalFinland on March 26, 2012, 05:39:00 PMNORD I still prefer most of their tapes and the 1st LP.
How many tapes did Nord do? I've got a download of something simply called "Nord 1", mushy Industrial, the fourth, longest track called "Utopie" being the best.
Hard to say. LSD records appears to have done some ultra rare tapes long ago. Much more easier to get is "Live Materials 1980-1993" on Vanilla. It's good stuff. Could be compared to Electronic Initiation CD, which is very essential! Even if ltd 300 done back in 1999, you can find 2nd hand copies for cheap price. I strongly recommend that cd.
My recent playlist included for example:
SOL INVICTUS "Killing Tide" CD re-issue
the bonus stuff (live) is quite unnecessary, just adding more length to already long piece. Very good, some of their best?
SOL INVICTUS "Against Modern World" CD re-issue
uh, such a post-punk wank, I can't really get into it.
Death In June "The Rule Of Thirds" CD
uhh.. what a bore! I have this love-hate thing about DiJ. Something I'd kind of want to like, and end up buying some stuff, and then sell them away. There is very little DiJ what can really grab your attention and keep it. 2007 DiJ is lazy, lame and routine job. Same guitar sound, same vocal sound, same arrangement, same rhythms, same compositions, same chords,... Nice photos and poetry can work simply as book. Listening CD (or expensive 2x10") appears to be utterly useless.
V/A US BESTIAL FORCES 3xCD
Yesterday was assaulted by high fever, and was laying down on sofa, near 39*C with doing nothing but listening this comp. Not looking who was playing, just trying to approach it with pure mind, without pre-infected ideas about each performers works. I will have to give it more time. At this point mixed feelings. A lot of good things, but a lot of samey.
