How long til he announces he's taking control of the stock markets so that he can just set the prices he wants and have the money sent directly to him instead of having to repeatedly go through these shock-and-awe manipulations for an extra billion here and there.

Cabaret Voltaire - Listen Up With Cabaret Voltaire 2xLP
(Mute, 1990)

I was introduced to CV during the Crackdown/Microphonies/Drinking Gasoline glory years and steadily losing interest in the rest of their 80s output. Buying this comp was a hail mary that paid off.

There's no way medbeds exist and Trump still looks like that.

Automatic - Is It Now? LP
(Stones Throw, 2025)

They're back with a renewed vitality. You always hope an anticipated release doesn't suck, and that expectation is more than met here. Great stuff.

I'm strongly in favor of a Sirhan Sirhan Jr. willing to rep the family franchise.

Juniore - Un Deux Trois LP
(Le Phonographe, 2020)

I know that during the past several years, for my son's cohort of late teens and twentynothings, if it didn't happen in a game chat, it's as irrelevant as the network news.

I mean, the album is more or less phenomenal.

However, I'm coming out of the cave with not yet widespread big #softcellnews!
Cold Spring Records announced gorgeous vinyl and digital reissue of #MarcAndTheMambas live album Three Black Night Of Little Black Bites.
Coming in August 2025.

Rise In Power

Jason Leach - Death To Vinyl One 12"
(Death To Vinyl, 2006)

JL's just an exemplar of what do with things that make noise. I'd never not listen to literally any idea he had. This one, comprising 4 live recordings, is for those who think a dancefloor deserves danger.

Tubeway Army - Replicas LP
(Beggars Banquet, 1979)

This here and the GN albums up thru Telekon changed popular music irreversibly. Many chased the sound, but nobody could catch him in those glory years.

YouTube video by Coil - Topic Backwards

Here's the original

youtu.be/HGmSWdp9vbg?...

icymi, yours is in fact from 'The New Backwards', a 2008 remixed re-assembly of the then-unreleased original. Lots of confusion about the album bc versions of most of these tracks appeared on releases (Ape of Naples, etc) prior to Backwards using the original mixes.

Coil - Backwards 2xLP
(Cold Spring, 2015)

For years it was Coil's 'lost album' bridging the span btwn LSD & MTPITD, and I prefer it to both. Interrupted in '93 & finished in '96, it was shelved and the original, unremixed tracks not released till this 2015 edition.

The Creatures - Wild Things double 7"
(Polydor, 1981;)

I found The Creatures in between the release of their first two albums and got kind of emotional bc I was never the Banshees' #1 fan and now I had a suitable way to change the subject.

YouTube video by Treasure Trove The Auteurs - "Government Bookstore" : BBC Radio 1 session 02.01.93. / January 2nd 1993.

Well they closed down the whole main building
Boarded up and the main gates staying locked
No calls, no messages
Just a vacant lot

Tenor Saw - Ring The Alarm 12"
(VP, 2000)

Fifteen years after it first ripped a hole in the dancehall, Tenor Saw's monster 1985 track got the official 12" treatment (w/ a Nardo Ranks flip) from VP. Thanks, VP.

Dang..Population II also has a new one called Maintenant Jamais.

Is that f-kkn Richard Ayoade on the vox? 😂

Phwooar!
When I hear the words "underground techno," I'm usually thinking of something like this.

The Creatures - Boomerang
(Polydor/Wonderland, 1989)

My big confession is my loving The Creatures way more than the Banshees.

Police are not workers.

TFW you're trying not to re-shoot the back jacket artwork, so it credits everyone including the photographer but not the remix artist. And that's how capitalism invented stickers.
