recently purchased

times new viking - dig yourself (lp)
times new viking - present the paisley reich (lp)
klaus schultze - cyborg (2lp)
windy weber - i hate people (lp)

i am completely in love with times new viking's pop cacophony. they've mastered the lo-fi art of short, distorted, overloaded boy-girl shout-alongs. i'm really annoyed with myself for not going to their dublin show. the two tnv records are on siltbreeze. i still haven't got the new one - well i have it but i don't own it. yet.

the schultze record just arrived this morning. i haven't listened to it yet because i don't have a record player in work. not yet anyway.

windy weber is half of windy & carl - one of my favourite dream/drone poppers. this is windy's first solo release. it's two long tracks. It's not something you'd sit back and relax with. It's edgy and unsettling. if you are a windy carl fanboy like me, then you'll probably want to pick it up. the vinyl comes in a choice of colours - i got the purple, green and blue on clear vinyl. it's nice and all, but i reckon the blod red on clear vinyl is actually nicer. I'm not enough of a fan boy to buy a second copy. I got a free CD when I bought this - "desperate times" by everyone. it's shit.

i ordered some other stuff but it hasn't arrived yet.
