Anyways check out my review for BLD, it's pretty bad, but I think I'm able to get a semi clear point as to why I rated the album how I did.


Rating too low = sucks no matter how good a review Wink
 
Why does this lowly three star believe he can talk to me this way?LOL

The seven I've liked so far. 1 & 2 are two has become two of my favorites of the 00's:

1 Kayo Dot - Blue Lambency Downward
2 Tartar Lamb - Sixty Metonymies
3 Kayo Dot - Dowsing Anemone With Copper Tongue
4 Kayo Dot - Choirs Of The Eye
5 Maudlin of the Well - Leaving Your Body Map & Maudlin of the Well - Bath
7 Toby Driver - In The L..L..Library Loft

I'm generally bored by Gregor Samsa, but Rest had some enjoyable moments. Haven't heard the first Maudlin album.
Over land and under ashes
In the sunlight, see - it flashes
Find a fly and eat his eye
But don't believe in me
Don't believe in me
Don't believe in me

I think I'll donate $20, just because I feel bad about not paying for the two mOTW albums, even though it was impossible for me to pay for them.

No, he was. The chat threads must have done some damage. ;-)

Donating will happen! Jesus, I cant even express how happy I am to hear this. Ironic considering I listened to all of MotW's albums last night.


That's not ironic, that's just good taste

Yes. If you all missed my comment in the blog (the one with the three-fingered blue hand pic), I will be donating as well.

At least 50 bucks and maybe up to 200. Because I'm a ridiculous, guilty fanboy.

I'd certainly appreciate these reports, and also maybe a link to the site where you...bought...these albums, if they are any good.

Just drop it by on last.fm, if you can

For the record, both Library Loft and Choirs of the Eye were released as part of the composer series on Zorn's Tzadik record label.

Some other great Tzadik Composer Series albums:



Charles Wuorinen - Lepton (electro-classical)
Christopher Adler - Epilogue for a Dark Day (world music/classical)
Bill Brovold - Childish Delusions (avant-rock weirdness)
Marc Ribot - Exercises in Futility (solo guitar neatness)
Fred Frith - Back to Life (minimalist classical, really beautiful)


And I just got a bunch of new ones (shh) that I'll be listening to over the course of the day and eventually reporting on.
