I am still a little shocked with myself. Last week I ordered some 40 albums over Amazon after a small bathtub of beer. I really don't recollect anything from the night - other than I listened to earth shatteringly loud music (I have something of a Captain Beefheart setting when I reach certain inebriated states, and they're always accompanied by a distinct nonchalance concerning neighbours and sound levels.). I woke up to a bill of 550 dollars though... 

I can't even begin to describe how much I'm looking forward to all these albums, but why oh why have I ordered so many albums that I have in the first place just because they're vinylConfused (The little man sitting in the ol skull cockpit obviously fails to remember the fact, that I currently am a student with zero dough and bills to pay)

I can't remember the lot, but these are a handful of my upcoming acquisitions:

Birds and Buildings - Bantam to Behemoth
Grails - Doomsdayer's Holiday
Future Sound Of London - Lifeforms
Elephant9 - Atlantis
Klaus Schulze - La Vie Electronique 6
NIL - Quarante Jours Sur Le Sinai
Tim Buckley - First 4 albums
PFM - Per Un Amico
COS - Viva Boma
Popol Vuh - Letzte Tage, Letzte Nachte
Phideaux - Snowtorch
Demon Fuzz - Afreaka!
Burial - Untrue
Porcupine Tree - Voyage 34
Herbie Hancock - Crossings
Dungen - 4

^ Classic, man! A beer in one hand, a credit card in the other hand = Big Trouble. Done this a few times. These days I keep my credit limit at $500 and it's always full so if I wan't to purchase something with my card, I have to make a payment first. No choice as I have no self-control.

Self-control is a meaningless word that somehow completely escapes me...

Looking back at this, I think the main problem is that I don't drink as often as I should. I'm out of training, which coincidentally also translates into prime time for poor decisions during spurts of alcohol.

The race is on!!! Let's see who can by more prog by the end of the year....The bearded Bard or the Gizzardian

Anyway. Dimensionaut by sound of contact came on the mail for me yesterday and I have to say that it's a really decent album. Great cross over prog with some heavier sequences some wise. I think a lot of you guys will be surprised by just how good Simon Collins (son of Phil Collins) is.
I can understand why Sound of Contact is nominated for an award this year. I haven't listed to life signs yet, but so far I think Collins 'sound of contact' will win the breakthrough artist award. ;)
