Here's some good ol' Welsh psychobilly. Let's give it up for the microphone stand, the unsung hero, for keeping Sparky upright.

FMD, 2014-09-12

I'm trying out two new albums this week:
1. Cymbals Eat Guitars, Lose. Based on several folk's recommendation. Or maybe just Zack over 3 platforms. I'm not fully into it yet, but it definitely seems like something Zack and Nibbish would be into. One song always makes me think it's by Jane's Addiction.
2. The Bug, Angels & Devils. Based on the awesomeness that is Kevin Martin (The Bug, half of Techno Animal, part of Ice), and in particular the singles from the prior album from the Bug, London Zoo. The new album's highs aren't quite as high as the prior album's highs, and it's lows are so low. Gonjasufi's vocals on "Save Me" might be the worst thing from Martin, until three tracks later when the Death Grips are featured on "F--- a B----". Now I've never listened to Death Grips, and they've got good press, so maybe there's some schtick I'm missing. But their vox here make the vocal versions from Two Fingers (a similar project from Amon Tobin) sound good. I can't even tell if Martin's beat is any good. It's too bad, because "This One" ft. Flowdan is pretty great (though it sounds less like Martin and more like Two Fingers), and some of the other tracks are intriguing, with featured vox from Liz Harris (Grouper) and Warrior Queen. I just need to delete this Death Grips collab from my iPod.

OK, share your list... now.
