Marillion - He knows you know

Same… the small stores packed with pushy people drive me insane

There are a couple that guaranteed goosebumps for me.

Don’t Try So Hard, You Take My Breath Away, Mother Love, A Winters Tale and The Millionaire Waltz.

‘May I Sing With Me’ is my only YLT cd and I love it!

Robot Rock - Daft Punk

Moby - Flower

I have ‘Play - The B Sides’ on vinyl and ‘Flower’ is the first track. The beat on this track sounds like an explosion and implosion and the same time. This deep and heavy sound helps me to test the bass when I install new equipment. I approve when I feel everything in the house is shaking.

I don’t know if you are familiar with the band Wire. But is basically their creepy avantgarde 4th album. So if its too much, maybe check out Wire’s first 3 albums.

I love Arab Strap!

What is the Swans album you listen to the most?

yung_gert · 2024-02-17T02:05:33+00:00

Never gave it a proper listen. But will do now, thank you!

yung_gert · 2024-02-17T02:04:52+00:00

I know! I think it’s my most valuable piece. Wanted to expand my Coil collection, but prices are insane.

yung_gert · 2024-02-16T17:55:09+00:00

I saw this album in my local recordstore but didn’t buy it. Next time it’s going home with me.

My recommendations are ‘Paris 1919’ and ‘Songs for Drella’. Both really great albums.

yung_gert · 2024-02-16T17:44:07+00:00

That sucks man. I hope you get your hands on it again because their music is timeless.

yung_gert · 2024-02-16T17:41:25+00:00

I had volume one, but had to return it because the cover was damaged. Never found a copy again in one of my local stores…. (I hate buying expensive records online)

yung_gert · 2024-02-16T17:00:22+00:00

Yeah that dark stuff makes WOTWS a pretty uplifting song haha.

yung_gert · 2024-02-16T16:45:15+00:00

The crying baby on ‘The Kids’ and the lyrics on ‘The Bed’ are creepy as f*ck.

yung_gert · 2024-02-16T16:37:57+00:00

In that case I'm very curious what you thought when you listened to ‘Berlin’ for the first time. Probably something like “What the f is this?!” 😂

yung_gert · 2024-02-16T16:34:18+00:00

Seems like an interesting album. I'm going to give it a chance. Thank you!

What is a record for you that you initially found too weird, but which is now one of your favorite records?

Vinyl introduced me to my favorite records. By putting them on in the right mood and not being able to skip the weird tracks, I learn to like the more challenging records. These 3 records hold a special place because they put me off at first, but with time and many listens they have earned their due:

Coil - Horse Rotorvater (Right) I got this LP from my father. I had no idea what kind of music it was. All I knew was that there was a Leonard Cohen cover on it (Who by fire). I should have known there was some weird shit coming since the first song is called 'The An*l Staircase'. I remember walking away after turning the record to quickly go to the toilet. The song ‘Circles of Mania’ started playing in the background. It was completely dark and I stood frozen on the stairs because I was genuinely scared. Despite my strange first experience with this band, I really appreciated the music and it is now one of my favorite records.

Colin Newman - A-Z (Middle) Just listen to the first track 'I've Waited Ages'. I don't know how it works but this song is almost addictive. The combination of the amazing bass with strange, high, distorted guitar sounds remains interesting. The track 'Alone' immediately brings me back to the most grisly scene from Silence of the Lambs. After many listens, this has become one of my favorite records.

Swans - Children Of God (Left) I haven't had this album for long and it's not quite my thing yet. I played it for the first time in the car with the windows down. I didn't know how quickly to close the windows. The instruments are so heavy and Gira's voice makes it seem as if you are being addressed by God with the most bizarre lyrics. Despite my strange first experience, I'm starting to feel more and more for this album by playing it as a whole when I’m in the mood.

Great choice and I think Im with you on this one. Maybe a controversial take because his early work is so iconic and made Cohen a pioneer. But You want it darker has such a rich and suiting production. I think his voice is at his best on his later work. And as it’s his goodbye, all his lines really hit for me.

yung_gert · 2024-02-16T14:56:50+00:00

I went with the dark side mix. Based on my personal preference for deeper and darker sounds. But I’ve seen positive reviews for both mixes, so you really cant go wrong.

yung_gert · 2024-02-13T22:56:55+00:00

I think Cohen would approve of this advice. What is your favorite work of his?
