middle cyclone, which is kind of a mess of a record but one of those endearing messes. it's really grown into me over the past two years, things have happened to me while it was on and i didn't even realize it was playing.

i don't think it's a mess at all, actually. i'm still partial to Furnace Room Lullaby, but Middle Cyclone was a triumph of a crossover IMHO.

as for those weird life things happening while listening to it - you're not the only one. neither am i, i don't think.

i just mean that it's a little long and haphazardly arranged.

Middle Cyclone is a fantastic record. the lyrics are really strong, as are most of the songs.

Couldn't agree more. Half a dozen of my favourite Neko tracks are on there. The Sparks cover always stuck out a bit for me, but the opening 1/2/3 is amazing, and The Pharaohs (a.k.a. The Blue Blue Baby song) is a family favourite here.

NP: Geronimo - s/t. "Caveman This Heat" (aQ)? Yes, please.

Ah, hadn't known "Never Turn Your Back On Mother Earth" was a Sparks cover. Didn't stick out for me, but not one of my favorites, either.

Entire Cities - Deep River

Which I must've found out about lurking around here a few years ago. Still a damn fine album.


Yes! I love that album.

And tinymixtapes decided this week that it was worth an "old releases" review.

This has been getting a lot of play recently. Pretentious as all hell but not totally over the top. Somehow they seem to successfully approach po-faced nonsense without ever quite crossing the line.

I seem to be listening to the first two Depeche Mode albums. What's more, I'm of the opinion that 80% of it is completely splendid.

It's all been about Demdike Stare recently. The fourth of their Elemental EPs just came out, completing a two-hour set that is a blisteringly magnificent follow-up to 2010's similarly sprawling Tryptych collection.

Ah! Jeff Porcaro on drums -- THAT's why it sounds so much like Steely Dan in parts. I think he drums on Silk Degrees and Middle Man, too.

Edit: Holy shit, dude has NINE pages of recording credits on AMG: http://allmusic.com/artist/jeff-porcaro-p112306/credits

hey, just read this! and ok, it meanders a bit, but your sentences are amazing. i can "see" the songs you're describing in a way that usually only happens with poems.

music is definitely yer muse, dewd.

Yeah, Porcaro is on everything. Those guys from Toto, they worked, I tells ya. I only have Silk Degrees, but maybe I'll branch out, one day.
