I had been intrigued by the track(s) on the (still great) Hey Drag City comp.  This was probably the first New Zealand record I ever owned and the first inkling I had of something crazy going on on that faraway island.  The two secret fantasies I harbored throughout an entire trip I made to NZ back in early '99 were 1) that I'd somehow get a chance to catch Alastair playing somewhere and 2) that I'd find more records by Thela.  Neither happened, but in the end I was more than willing to settle for having seen Roy Montgomery, Bruce Russell/Kim Pieters/Peter Stapleton, The Clean, Peter Jefferies, Bailter Space, and a whole slew of lesser known though still amazing bands.  Wow.  If I could revisit any single month from my past......  With money for records though this time, of course.  But that's neither here nor there.  My point being that this record serves as a great "intro version" to both Galbraith's solo output and the wider '90's New Zealand singles scene.  It's all here- bedroom production, guitar scuzz/violin scree,  and fragmented suggestions of pop brilliance.  Fans of Stefan Neville's Pumice records in particular should take notice.  Last track also features Chris Heazlewood on guitar.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://sharebee.com/83987b52"&gt;Intro Version&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8422918066554039981-5792843905853554699?l=7inchoftheday.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://7inchoftheday.blogspot.com/feeds/5792843905853554699/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8422918066554039981&amp;postID=5792843905853554699' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8422918066554039981/posts/default/5792843905853554699'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8422918066554039981/posts/default/5792843905853554699'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://7inchoftheday.blogspot.com/2009/11/alastair-galbraith-intro-version.html' title='Alastair Galbraith- Intro Version'/><author><name>cain</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16990205997346362064</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_WIPCx-DJUn8/SdmlcYtROxI/AAAAAAAAAF8/S0L9xdGEa0o/S220/Bottom+of+the+World.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_WIPCx-DJUn8/SvS6glkE30I/AAAAAAAAAHU/TYi7-a3huhw/s72-c/385975.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8422918066554039981.post-2411602660219250155</id><published>2009-11-02T20:51:00.004-05:00</published><updated>2009-11-03T10:39:28.660-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Thalia Zedek'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Chris Brokaw'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Matador'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Come'/><title type='text'>Come- Fast Piss Blues</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_WIPCx-DJUn8/Su-NGATUtlI/AAAAAAAAAHM/4GmPEnHOLCc/s1600-h/Come.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left;

&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;There are plenty of naysayers out there who write off everything the band did after Sister, or Daydream, or Evol, or after they signed to Geffen, or whatever.  Bollocks I say.  The band has managed  the highwire act of growing without losing what made them great to begin with.  The more nihilistic noise tendencies of their earlier work have morphed into emphasis on songwriting and drawn out pastoral soundscapes, but overall, the major components of the Sonic Youth sound have changed little over the years.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Few bands have been able to maintain a sound for so long without becoming a boring caricature of themselves.  Hell, 28 years in, even the Stones were starting to lose it.  The Fall, maybe, But overall Mark E. Smith's output hasn't been anywhere near as consistent over the years.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;These two tracks come from the Rather Ripped sessions and are quite a bit rawer than anything that showed up on that album.  A lot of people found the record to be a bit too mellow and there was talk in some circles that they  where getting old, going soft, or getting boring.  I can't help but wonder if the  simultaneous release of this single wasn't meant as a reminder, to anyone who might doubt it, that the Youth ain't lost shit over the years.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a

style="font-size:small;"&gt;I just recently pulled out Tortoise's first album and was reminded of how amazing this band was back in the day.  This is their very first record, released on (if I remember right) Jesus Lizard bassist David Sims' Torsion Music in 1993.  These guys get an unfair shake from a lot of folks these days.  But they deserve, in the words of John Fahey, neither "the credit nor the blame" for the deluge to tepid "post-rock" that followed in their wake.  Fact is, when these first couple of records showed up there was nothing else like it going on.  I mean, there were touchstones for sure- Faust, Liquid Liquid, fIREHOSE, African Head Charge, CAN, etc.- but from the beginning they were able to incorporate a wide range of influences without being beholden to any set style or paradigm.  At this point though, they're still a band finding their voice and, as such, this record, upbeat and almost outright funky, is unlike anything else in their catalog.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:13px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align:

progressed light years from the debut ep released the previous year.  Whereas that album relied heavily on more pedestrian distortion pedal off/distortion pedal on dynamics, the writing here offers a subtle complexity that takes into account time, space, volume, and timbre.  A nice prelude to their follow up LP German Water- their strongest effort which I highly suggest seeking out, and Modern Gang Reader in fact resurfaces there.  These sorts of bands always worked better in small doses I always thought, and this is a great example of how the single can still be a great format.  A simple but effective package and two songs that serve as a perfect distillation of what it is a band does.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div

the Shipp and Connors cuts, the record features 5 lock grooves from sculptor and furniture designer Harry Bertoia's Sonambient LPs.  Bertoia created huge sound sculptures in a barn in rural Pennsylvania and self-released a series of 10 beautiful LPs in the '70's that with their homemade sounds and stark black &amp;amp; white cover art fall somewhere between Partch's Gate 5 and Jandek's Corwood Industries.  Overall, a beautiful reminder that by the end of the 20th century, American folk/sound art was still very much alive and well.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align:

left;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Two titans of the modern Avant-Garde.  This record coincided with a 1995 series of concerts put on by Table of the Elements.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Gastr del Sol wasn't the first or only band to employ methods and techniques taken from the world of modern avant-garde composition, but few other bands sought so explicitly, at their core, to create music based in that tradition.  While O'Rourke claims to cringe at the more abstract for abstracts sake aspect of those records, the fact is that they remain as some of the most singularly unique records not only of that particular time, but of the whole history of Experimental/Art rock.  I was always a particular fan of David Grubbs' piano playing.  His voicings and use of space at times recall the proto-minimalism of Satie or the later, sparer works of Feldman.  Here we have a fragment of song that floats in and out of a haze of subtle electronics and tape manipulation that perfectly exemplifies the Gastr del Sol modus operandi.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Tony Conrad does what Tony Conrad does.  Qualitative judgements can be hard to make with this sort of stuff, but perhaps this is at least an easier to digest portion for folks who find an albums worth (or a 4 cd boxsets worth) daunting.  Over the years Conrad's searing violin drone has rubbed shoulders with folks like La Monte Young, the Velvet Underground, and Faust.  But it's been in the last decade or so that his reputation has been rescued from obscurity and he's returned to somewhat regular performance.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;The first 500 copies of this record also included a second record with an excerpted performance of a Conrad composition, &lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Ten Years Alive on the Infinite Plane&lt;/span&gt;,  performed with Grubbs and O'Rourke.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:13px;"&gt;&lt;br

style="font-size:13px;"&gt;Most people that care about such things consider the early 90's Majora releases to represent something of a high water mark in this band's long and storied career. It was also a particularly productive period- this is one of four singles released that year.  The music here works well as an addendum to the amazing albums of the era (Torch of the Mystics, Bright Surroundings, etc).  None of this stuff turned up on the fairly recent singles compilation,  but I suppose future releases of that nature will be forthcoming.  The brothers Bishop played a mere hour down the road last week and I didn't go.  No excuse.  But I'm seeking solace in the Girls' back catalog.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:13px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://sharebee.com/44910081"&gt;Eye Mohini&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8422918066554039981-7565311365355035266?l=7inchoftheday.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://7inchoftheday.blogspot.com/feeds/7565311365355035266/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8422918066554039981&amp;postID=7565311365355035266' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8422918066554039981/posts/default/7565311365355035266'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8422918066554039981/posts/default/7565311365355035266'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://7inchoftheday.blogspot.com/2008/06/sun-city-girls-eye-mohini.html' title='Sun City Girls- Eye Mohini'/><author><name>cain</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16990205997346362064</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_WIPCx-DJUn8/SdmlcYtROxI/AAAAAAAAAF8/S0L9xdGEa0o/S220/Bottom+of+the+World.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_WIPCx-DJUn8/SGfXYIEk_aI/AAAAAAAAADQ/sWscD7s2tTA/s72-c/Sun+City+Girls.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8422918066554039981.post-7584249174173257651</id><published>2008-06-26T01:31:00.008-04:00</published><updated>2008-06-26T02:04:45.896-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Indie'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Drag City'/><title type='text'>Mantis- Drüler</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_WIPCx-DJUn8/SGMqH2XZlzI/AAAAAAAAADI/ZCZ84y7yOFE/s1600-h/Mantis-Druler.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left;

label) the sound owes a serious debt to the pioneering German electronic musicians of the 1970's- Ash Ra Temple, Popul Vuh, Klaus Schulze, Kraftwerk (Their 2nd album in particular) and Cluster.  Other folks at the time though were starting to sniff out those old Krautrock albums and as such Labradford was banded together with a disparate group of artists- usually Stereolab, Tortoise, Cul de Sac, Ui, and Trans Am- and thus the concept of "Post-Rock" was introduced.  While the term is often met with derision now, at the time it referred to bands who were genuinely pushing music into new territory.  Being the least "Rock" of the fold spared Labradford the hordes of cheap imitations that plagued some of the other groups and their records remain unburdened by over saturation.  Both of these tracks were added to the recent reissue of Prazision.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:13px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://sharebee.com/270aa24c"&gt;Everlast&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8422918066554039981-3785974140295669203?l=7inchoftheday.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://7inchoftheday.blogspot.com/feeds/3785974140295669203/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8422918066554039981&amp;postID=3785974140295669203' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8422918066554039981/posts/default/3785974140295669203'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8422918066554039981/posts/default/3785974140295669203'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://7inchoftheday.blogspot.com/2008/06/labradford-everlast.html' title='Labradford- Everlast'/><author><name>cain</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16990205997346362064</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_WIPCx-DJUn8/SdmlcYtROxI/AAAAAAAAAF8/S0L9xdGEa0o/S220/Bottom+of+the+World.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_WIPCx-DJUn8/SGG1QY9lpXI/AAAAAAAAADA/7QeexEJC9BY/s72-c/Labradford+7' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8422918066554039981.post-6167263260152327771</id><published>2008-06-22T21:11:00.014-04:00</published><updated>2008-06-23T02:58:25.007-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Lo-Fi'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Post-Punk'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Punk'/><title type='text'>Tyvek/Cheveu Split</title><content type='html'>&lt;img style="float:left;

Most notably was probably the Harmony of the Spheres triple LP set, but the whole roster was pretty solid.  lots of gems from the noisier fringes of the indi world of the time.  One of these guys was born again and left the group to start the christian-themed Soul Junk.  Now that's something you don't hear about everyday.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:13px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://sharebee.com/da0619d2"&gt;Hey Fish&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8422918066554039981-6357846314673449666?l=7inchoftheday.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://7inchoftheday.blogspot.com/feeds/6357846314673449666/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8422918066554039981&amp;postID=6357846314673449666' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8422918066554039981/posts/default/6357846314673449666'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8422918066554039981/posts/default/6357846314673449666'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://7inchoftheday.blogspot.com/2008/06/trumans-water-hey-fish.html' title='Trumans Water- Hey Fish'/><author><name>cain</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16990205997346362064</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_WIPCx-DJUn8/SdmlcYtROxI/AAAAAAAAAF8/S0L9xdGEa0o/S220/Bottom+of+the+World.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_WIPCx-DJUn8/SEjB8fcWyZI/AAAAAAAAAB4/nJU85oJo8KE/s72-c/Truman%27s+Water.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8422918066554039981.post-4322876442881622294</id><published>2008-06-03T03:42:00.008-04:00</published><updated>2009-04-07T01:28:43.696-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Lo-Fi'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Dadamah'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Psych'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Noise Rock'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Majora'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='New Zealand'/><title type='text'>Dadamah- Scratch Sun</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_WIPCx-DJUn8/SDPb0nqNPgI/AAAAAAAAABw/XRiXJ-iIbWY/s1600-h/Dadamah.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left;

&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;As far as the pantheon of Kiwi Rock goes, Dadamah is a near perfect example of a particularly virulent strain of NZ noise weaned on equal parts White Light era Velvets, Kill Yr Idols era Sonic Youth and the darker corners of UK Post-Punk a la Joy Division, Wire, and the Fall.  They didn't last long, but what they left behind still resonates pretty strongly.  This record along with everything else they ever recorded (a scant 2 singles, an LP and a single comp track in all) were compiled on a CD collection by &lt;a href="http://www.kranky.net/"&gt;Kranky&lt;/a&gt; back in the mid-90's.  Amazing.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://sharebee.com/4d7a1e7d"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;Scratch Sun&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"&gt;

&lt;/span&gt;Monade was at this point a solo project of Laetitia Sadier. Her main group, Stereolab, is a pretty adequate point of reference, but the music here is a bit more stripped down and looser in structure.  uh, you know, like a solo project.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:13px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://sharebee.com/b57b2271"&gt;M/Monade&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:13px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8422918066554039981-7578436280409184528?l=7inchoftheday.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://7inchoftheday.blogspot.com/feeds/7578436280409184528/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8422918066554039981&amp;postID=7578436280409184528' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8422918066554039981/posts/default/7578436280409184528'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8422918066554039981/posts/default/7578436280409184528'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://7inchoftheday.blogspot.com/2008/05/mmonade.html' title='M/Monade'/><author><name>cain</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16990205997346362064</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_WIPCx-DJUn8/SdmlcYtROxI/AAAAAAAAAF8/S0L9xdGEa0o/S220/Bottom+of+the+World.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_WIPCx-DJUn8/SDIohnqNPeI/AAAAAAAAABg/J9NHT6acPmg/s72-c/M.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8422918066554039981.post-6847570326141018855</id><published>2008-05-11T23:39:00.009-04:00</published><updated>2008-05-16T02:18:39.710-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Folk'/><title type='text'>Michael Hurley- National Weed Growers Assoc.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_WIPCx-DJUn8/SCe9W3qNPdI/AAAAAAAAABY/DNemLxjMrB0/s1600-h/Michael+Hurley.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left;

Some of Table's obscurity no doubt though lies in the fact that, well, they never really did much. They apparently existed for around a year, played, maybe,  a dozen shows around Chicago, and did two recording sessions before the bassist split town (apparently under shifty circumstances) and the band fell apart.  This record comes from the first sessions done with Albini in January of '92.  A second 7" appeared in '93 on Homestead by which point I think they might have already been kaput.  After that, these guys pretty much disappeared and that was that.  Though I recently found out that the bassist, Warren Fischer, popped up a few years back as one half of the electro-pop duo Fischerspooner.  hmmm...  At some point in the mid-90's, there was a posthumously released CD collection released on Humble that contained both records as well the remaining tracks from the two sessions done with Steve Albini and Brad Wood.  If you can find a copy, the CD is amazing and well worth taking the effort to track down.  I haven't seen it in years, but i still come across the records from time to time.  Cheap usually too.  In the meantime, dig on this gem here:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:13px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://sharebee.com/9d224193"&gt;Gag Box/Unwind&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8422918066554039981-3968143209994529908?l=7inchoftheday.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://7inchoftheday.blogspot.com/feeds/3968143209994529908/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8422918066554039981&amp;postID=3968143209994529908' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8422918066554039981/posts/default/3968143209994529908'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8422918066554039981/posts/default/3968143209994529908'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://7inchoftheday.blogspot.com/2008/04/table-gag-box.html' title='Table- Gag Box'/><author><name>cain</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16990205997346362064</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_WIPCx-DJUn8/SdmlcYtROxI/AAAAAAAAAF8/S0L9xdGEa0o/S220/Bottom+of+the+World.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_WIPCx-DJUn8/SCIDL-K7ZrI/AAAAAAAAAAw/GXtVIus0mqY/s72-c/Table.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8422918066554039981.post-1909011511008677555</id><published>2008-04-15T01:26:00.024-04:00</published><updated>2008-05-07T15:35:46.583-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Noise'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Hardcore'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Grindcore'/><title type='text'>BLLLEEEEAAAUUURRRRGGHHH!

I got ahold of my first record player at the ass end of 1992 pretty much for the sole purpose of tracking down the near deluge of music that at the time was coming out on 7". Upon turning 16 and getting my drivers license, the first thing I did was drive to Raven Records in Knoxville to buy the first records I'd bought since being a young child. I've since fallen into that shadowy world of record collecting/scavenging/hoarding, but it was the 7" single that started me down that slippery slope and it remains to this day a format that I'm particularly fond of.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style=" "&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:'trebuchet ms';"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;First up we have BLLLEEEEAAUUURRRRGGHH!!!
