On the record...

Been listening to this German instrumental post-rock band called 35007. Fantastic album that i procured from StonerRock.com and it's by far the best album I've heard this year. A lot of it reminds me of SubArachnoid Space or Kinski, but at other times it's more like The F'in Champs. It's not available domestically nor have i seen it for download anywhere. But it needs to be released here. Next on the playlist is Boris's new album "Pink." This band is fantastic and they get little to no play in the States (they are from Japan). This album is BEGGING for a proper stateside release though as its the most solid all around effort that I've heard from Boris. The first track is slab of showgazer noise that takes me back to 1992. Tracks 2 and 3 drop all sublties and go straight for your heart. Just crunching brutal riffs. I could go on and on but...well...I don't want to. Just check this album out. You can find it in San Fran at Aquarius Records or online at StonerRock.com Finally, i need to do a shout out to NoelM for introducing me to "Jesus's Blood Never Failed Me Yet." A homeless guy singing that line over and over again for 25 minutes? With orchestra over the top? And a little Tom Waits thrown in too? Fantastic!!! It made my fiancee sick to the stomach. I think that says it all. Phish rulez. Don't forget it.
