"I feel electricity to be the energy of the universe. The electric guitar is the only tool that can converse with this energy. Feedback is the ecstatic orgasm that comes from this conversation between humans and the electric blood of matter" Michael Gibbons, guitarist, Bardo Pond...
Time to get back to the Bardo ritual.....on vinyl too :) Have you ever heard of these Jad?
Being an Audio Fidelity subscriber you end up with CDs you'd never otherwise have in your collection (Phil Collins being a classic point in question) however I have to admit to enjoying this.

Start with the last one and work your way up....fabulous sound especially the feedback drenched guitars from the Gibbons brothers :) Not too gone on Isobel vocals, though they're easily tuned out with all the racket!

I played that one to death at one stage.Kevin Shields,amazing but a total nut.They nearly bankrupt creation records
recording the follow up(which never came).Would you believe he played in a band with Liam O Maonlai from the hot house flowers
called The Complex.

Heard those stories alright but I didn't know he played with Mr. Hothouse himself! Couldn't believe that the album came out 6 years before Bardo Ponds! He was way ahead of the pack.....
By the way, there's an important anniversary coming up next Monday....watch this space :)
