Not much time to whitter on this week due to other distractions so here is the list of what was played and a few comments
- Higher Elevation – The Diamond Mind – Pebbles Volume 3 – classic psychedelia
- Factory Star – New Chemical Light – Enter Castle Perilous – from the new album and as a promo for the launch at the Salutation in Hulme this friday. Album is available from Occultation Records.
- Saucer – Barney – These Are Testing Times – the first of four fumbles from Farley – and he says in response to my query about more info about this band “I know nowt more about them. That track appeared on a compilation and I’ve never managed to find anything else by them. I think they released a few other things -see discogs.com – but think they must have been pretty short-lived. The only clear thing is 555 Records, the label the compilation was released on. I like that track, even if it’s totally predictable as to what is going to happen.”
- Well Wisher – Babe Issues – Split with Polina – thanks to Ian Breen for drawing this fantastic pair of new tunes from this great band. Available from Bandcamp/
- Crash of Rhinos – Wide Awake – Distal – and thanks again to Ian Breen for drawing this rather fine band from Derby to my attention – check them out on Bandcamp.
- GlassHeads – Man In the Street – Pre-release single – out soon check out their new website
- Red House Painters – Mistress – Red House Painters – Farley’s second fumble of the evening.
- Young Widows – Future Heart – In and Out of Youth and Lightness – from the rather spiffing new album.
- Obits -You Gotta Lose – Moody, Standard and Poor – also from the rather spiffing new album.
- Well Wisher – Montel – Split with Polina – as above.
- Lush – Nothing Natural – Spooky – third Farley fumble of the evening.
- Factory Star – The Fall of GB – Enter Castle Perilous – another track from the great album and if you are tempted to ask – it is not about the band Martin co-founded in 1976!
