This Bob Bell has been bending my mind quite a bite. Did Greg Ginn somehow have this private press LP on high rotation at the SST offices?

Yes, really more interesting than you first think - bits of free jazz floating around there -

Haikai No Ku can be a bummer - most of their tracks are a bit more, uh, uplifting???

@Martha - bummer vibes = good listening to my ears. Flipper, Drunks With Guns, et al. I dug it.

Ken From Hyde Park:

My low-budget research reveals that Kvelertak is a Norwegian band whose name translates to "stranglehold" or "chokehold." And "Ordsmedar av Rang" equates to "Wordsmith of Rank."
  1:24pm
Martha:

Kverlertak = ominous amount of self-indulgence on my part
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:26pm
fred:

I got enough uplifting things today: first, a notification from the post office that swagmas should fall on Friday. Second, a box of CDs from Houston, with the post office slip signed by one Sterling Smith

Does Nugent sing "Got you in a kvelertak, baby" when he plays Norway?

Very cool, fred! I've always wanted to do that.

I wear progressive lenses too. I usually tell people that I have transgressive lenses.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:37pm
fred:

@sphere: I saw Jandek earlier this year, and not only did was the show great (unlike the first time I saw him, which sucked) I later saw him dancing during another band's set, in the back of the room. I love it when people show up for other acts instead of staying backstage
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:40pm

The main dude in the Long Ryders has a really good chapter in John Doe's new book.

Evidently, that Membranes song is from the band of the same name led by John Robb. Who knows who is in there now. <shrug>
  2:08pm
Martha:

@sphere - interesting, thanks for info - I think I have some ancient 12" EP from them which doesn't seem v. similar but then I haven't listened to it in at least 20 years...
Avatar 2:10pm
sphere:

@ Martha - i was interested because i am a huge fan of their 80s tune "Wounded Bull in Victorian England."
  2:10pm
Martha:

And thanks all for the good words - hope you enjoy this long track - not trying to be terribly self-indulgent but I hate cutting things off...tho' it will be nec. here - bad timing on my part -

This Abysmal Growls of Despair elicits nothing of the sort for me: clicky-star!
Rough translation of the title: Feeling the weight of mountains and finding peace in darkness
  2:14pm
Martha:

@Fred: thanks for the translation; I'll add it to the comments section (which I have never used before, actually).

the obvious solution here is to get your 12-3am program back, so you have time to play everything you want...and when the fcc isn't so strict about the station id being right on time.

Marc15:

Is there a transmitter problem?
  2:20pm
Martha:

@Marc15: why do you ask?
  2:21pm
Marc15:

All I am hearing is static?
  2:21pm
Martha:

Was it distorting - that may have been my fault - I've adjusted the levels - this is mastered (unsurprisingly) v. hot
  2:22pm
Martha:

@coelacanth: I would love to but right now my schedule is really erratic and I can't commit to being here the % of time that is required
  2:23pm
Martha:

@sphere: Maybe I have the Membranes mixed up with another band. The one I was obsessed with from that period was The Creepers -
Avatar 2:25pm
sphere:

@ Martha: Who knows? The Membranes sound a lot different to me too.
  2:25pm
Marc15:

I hear the song on 91.1 but on the App is static
  2:25pm

a) is it better?
b) how are you listening?

i, for one, say, indulge thyself, Martha. this is great.

maybe try lowering the bass on the "app"? i had to lower the bass AND the overall level because my room was rumbling too much!

remember when itunes canada accidentally (?) released 8 seconds of white noise as the latest Taylor Swift single?
and some silly people, like myself, who knew nothing about Taylor Swift entertained the idea that she might embrace it and gravitate toward "noise" in her art...
