he forgot to mention the review on EvilSponge: http://www.evilsponge.org/albums/Gel-sol__MusicMadeFor.htm sigh. PJK please don't hate me because i can't type..... --- All the cool kids are doing it: HTTP://www.EvilSponge.org -- gel-sol(a)gel-sol.com wrote: Yo Homies! A big shoutout to my homie ODB, who proved a healthy diet of fast food and crack can get you far in life... So yeah...I got back from seattle...had a great time...only problem is I lost all the sets i recorded (plus other valuable stuff) in a freak external hard drive failure. Be vary cautious when buying any devices from Lacie. I am very pissed off. Fortunately, I still have the recording from my last show, and it was hands down my best show of the lot... Anyways, Gel-Sol 1104 (formerly music made for you...) will be available on december 6th in europe and the usa. I will post links for purchase in the next week with my new website. The site is a little more minimal looking than the current one, but there will be more pictures and audio downloads, including the sole seattle show I have. Gel-Sol 1104 is the first solo release from the newly resurrected em:t label, and has received extremely positive reviews! Check out the press release here: http://www.emit.cc/news/6131#6133 Staticbeats review: http://www.staticbeats.com/reviews.php?id=55 Freestyle Grooves review: http://www.freestylegrooves.com/asp/rev.asp?id=357 Even if you don't like Gel-Sol music, or me personally for that matter, think of buying this album as an investment. As a part of the em:t collectors series, the value of Gel-Sol 1104 will rise over time. Check out "em:t" on ebay...I shit you not! Plus, I just want you buy the album...it makes me feel warm and fuzzy on the inside. The artwork for 1104 is also quite awesome. bit of a departure from some of the older em:t albums, but hey, this is the new em:t, and they're better than ever! Stay tuned for the website update, and buy the gift of Gel-Sol for this holiday season, and pick up a copy for yourself!

<< I miss Dead Can Dance - >> well miss them no longer -- the European tour for Spring 05 is already on sale, and there have been strong hints of a US tour next fall... and supposedly they are recording together again, which is good because without her, Brendan Perry tended to do crappy folk music.... news on this is very hard to find though. check the lisa gerrard site, in the forums. dates have been listed, and i know some people who already have tickets.... DCD are playing the Barbican in London, and tickets are still available. where are you located Gavin? since i live in Atlanta, i figure i will have to drive somewhere far to see them. hopefully they'll play DC -- that's only 9 hours away..... however, to see DCD, it'll be worth it....

chick singers
by Alan Evil 17 Nov '04

I sent Bbroo the suggestion of Lori Carson fronting the band Golden Palominos on the album Pure and the song Little Suicides. But as I read your posts I thought, "Yeah. Cocteau Twins." I love their stuff and they're one of my favorite live shows ever. Then I thought, "Dead Can Dance. Yeah." Never saw them but generally love the Celtic influenced sounds. And then I thought, "Fuck yeah! Curve rules." Curve has been one of my favorite bands since the first time I heard that blue ep WAY back in tha day. They were pretty excellent live though the vocals were much too buried in the wall of guitars. And yeah, that Budded on Earth song is killer. Sarah McLachlan is another favorite of mine. That whole Fumbling Towards Ecstacy album is too fine for words. I'm not so sure how great the singer is but I really love that first Single Gun Theory album. She kind of sings monotone but it sits nicely in themusic. And let's not forget Blondie. Debbie Harry'll kick all of your asses any day. Joni Mitchell made some good records. ____________________ www.psychicreform.com ____________________ "Be who you are... not what's cool." --Chef.

Coil
by Matt SchIeffer 16 Nov '04

That does suck gavin. I've only just heard about Coil for the first time today, incidentally. I just happened to be reading about some old gig they did with Mouse on Mars and Plaid wherin the bands played to video game graphics. Sucks I just discovered them and the guy dies. Also went to a hip-hop show last night, Cali Comm, and they broke the news to me that ODB aka Baby Jesus died too. ... these things happen in threes you know. The good news is I got to see Al Frankin walking round when I was dining. I was surprised he's actually a bit of a load ass in person, but great guy. He knewearly on that Ohio was gonna make or break election hopes.. if anyone listens to Air America radio ever. http://hydrallus.blogspot.com

Ok. What about Kate Bush. Hounds of Love is one of my fav vocal albums of all time. I think both Sarah Mclachlan and Tori Amos are both good, but owe a lot to Kate Bush. Whos the chick singer in My Bloody Valentine? More good stuff. Hooverphonic is another example of decent female vocalage. gg NP: Jon Wayne/Texas Funeral - Mr. Egyptian -----Original Message----- From: Tim C [mailto:timc_orb@charter.net] Sent: Monday, November 15, 2004 10:18 PM To: 'What were the skies like when you were young?'

T PS - the above not tongue in cheek - I like Blondie reasonably well, but then there's _Beauty and the Beat_ ("Automatic" particularly nice) and then _I Love Rock 'n' Roll_ is just wall to wall awesomeness. Second record I ever bought (behind Queen's _Flash Gordon_) and "Crimson and Clover" still gives chills. _______________________________________________ Orb mailing list Orb(a)mailman.xmission.com http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/orb Report list abuse to list-abuse at studio-nibble.com
