Appearently they've been playing the same set-list in the same order every show so far. Must be disappointing for crazed fans following them all over Europe.

Nice surprise for me. Shellac very rarely release new albums and this one seems great so far. I also picked up re-released copies of 1000 hurts and my favourite of theirs, At Action Park.

Re: Genesis Tour

Meh, okay setlist. Can't believe they still play Invisible Shit, it's far worse than I Can't Dance imo. Though the latter is an embarrasing attempt at something a bit heavier that's just real lame.

lack: Thanks, I think I'll go for Scream next then (or perhaps I should save it for last?). I'm curious about those remasters, there are remasters of these four albums from 2006 and recent editions from 2007. Is it just Universal re-releasing them with their name on it? Tracklist and all seems to be...

Hooray! Nick Lowe is touring this year and I'm going to see him in October in Stockholm with his band (provided I'll get tickets). Rush are also playing Stockholm at the same day almost at the same time which is a shame since I could've gone to see both had one concert been a day or so early/later.

http://static.rateyourmusic.com/album_images/s9051.jpg My introduction to Siouxsie & The Banshees and a great introduction it is. Great, driving, gloomy post-punk rock with lovely vocals. Only downer is the lyrics. Siouxsie seems to go for cheap rhymes a bit too often, thankfully the charmingly...

I guess I should get the other one too. Seems there's only a bonus disc version available though. Currently listening to: http://static.rateyourmusic.com/album_images/s10128.jpg Previously I've heard Overnite Sensation which I like and Zoot Allures which I certainly did not.

Picked it up the other day since they're playing at Roskilde and I'd heard good things about it. Enjoyable, fun listening so far.

Head over to http://www.genesis-movement.com and go to the recording search. Search for Rockland and you'll find there's actually an incomplete recording of the show and photos too! Amazing database :)

2007 SACD/DVDA remaster. Sounds fantastic. Makes an already great album even better. I got the box including this, Wind & Wuthering, And Then There Were Three..., Duke and Abacab. Duke also sounds wonderful. The other remasters didn't make that big an impression on me, sadly not Abacab either, ...

Saw Built To Spill yesterday. Good show, somewhat spoiled by the fact that someone picked up a setlist lying on the stage and held it up right in front of me! It ruined the joy of being happily surprised by the encore, my favourite song of theirs, Broken Chairs. Tight band, and Doug Martsch seems li...

Bought it, haven't received it yet!

Or if you were referring to the Scary Monsters SACD only being in stereo, I feel it's not really worth its steep price. From what I've read it's not a particularly different experience from the normal cd.

Bought the CD/DVD issue of Bowie's Y.A following Otis' orders ;) . Quite cheap on Cd-Wow. I was certain there'd been previous S.E's with surround mixes and stuff like that but I couldn't find any now at first glance. The disc tray on my surround system malfunctioned today and when examining it close...

Busy summer: Going to see Built To Spill in May. Fun! Never thought they'd stop by here. Going to the Roskilde festival in early July. Plan to see at least Arcade Fire and Camera Obscura. Going to see EC & AT in late July. And possibly, just before EC, visiting the Stockholm Jazz Festival to see...

Brilliant, speed-driven incisive songwriting - absolutely classic. But what's with the awful, tinny production??? That is one of the things I really love about it. I don't think the production is bad or tinny at all except the opening track, which, imo, is really hurt by that sound. I like the demo...

I'm guessing the model Jordan (or whatever she is). I didn't know she was back, I've been happy not hearing about her for a while now.

New Order & Talking Heads give/tradeaways

I've got duplicates of Talking Heads' Speaking In Tongues & Little Creatures (old versions) as well as New Order's Brotherhood and Substance. I'll send them to who anyone who wants them (though the last two cd circle packages I sent to people in the US never got them). If there was was something...

I just bought the last reissue of YA, so I'm not going to be picking this up yet. Waiting for a price drop. Speaking of DTS Audio remasters.

Talked some friends into going with me to the Roskilde Festival again this year, so unless the Arcade Fire cancels for some reason, I guess I will get to see them this year after all!
