Ok, now that I've listened to a few tracks and had my fucking mind blown...I can say that yes this is the goddamn masterpiece everyone says it is. Really, I can't begin to gush over this enough. Words just fail me. Thank you for turning me on to this.
Very glad you liked it so much. It's a damn shame this album's been out of print for so long, so it's my responsibility to make it available heheh thanks for your support, it means a lot.
I managed to see this band twice, at the 1996 Reading Festival and a few months later in Baltimore when they were on tour opening for the Red Aunts. The Reading set was by far superior, they played at like 3 p.m. on a side stage and managed to captivate the crowd. I can't believe this record is as old as it is.
belated reply, i seen them @ reading 96 too. Took so much speed that weekend i thought my eyes were gonna melt out the sockets by end of weekend. After New Kingdom of course, couldn't miss that.
yessss.
ReplyDeletewell that review sure makes it sound like the shit...so I'm gonna have to check it out. Thanks again.
