This is their set from the Scion Rock Fest in Atlanta earlier this year. One of the best shows I've ever been to and their set was absolutely mind melting. My only complaint was that they didn't play Locust Star but that's okay. They could have sat on stage for an hour playing Uno and I would have loved every second of it.

A lapse in activity but what I got here is well worth it in my not so humble opinion.
One of the reasons I created this blog was to upload material not readily available; the other reason was to have a place to upload my various mixtapes. I love making mixes. Most of the time, if Winamp is open, I'm listening to all of my music on shuffle.

Anyhow, I wanted to make a mixtape based on a decade and I figured the 80s would be an absolutely perfect place to start. The 80s, to me, wasn't so much about synthpop, disco and cocaine parties. To me, the 80s was a wonderful period in time where different genres were really coming into their own and starting to mature. Shit like Industrial, hardcore, grind, hiphop: the 80s were a decade of experimenting in the rawest form of the word and as a result the music that came out of the underground was gritty, dirty, and best of all, fucking incredible. There was no Myspace, no Rhapsody or last.fm. It was music for music's sake and to be a fan of the music meant so much more those days than they do now in the AOL Generation.
This, of course, coming from someone who was born in the early 80s, so correct me if I am terribly off base.


If you get the reference, you've come to the right place my friend. Welcome



This mix is a collection of my personal favourites from the 80s and is by no means a comprehensive list of the best. I tried to focus on bands with which I have an emotional connection.

My only regret is that I wasn't able to put my favourite Bags song on here, although I was able to add a Fun Things song. The Fun Things EP is by far one of the best punk records to ever fucking exist and I mean that with all of my soul. Seriously, go download it (or ask me to upload it). It's up there with Lexicon Devil and Nervous Breakdown as far as personal favourite hardcore singles goes.

This truly was a labor of love. I spent more time than I should've on the ugly ass cover but I honestly think this comp is worth it. I haven't been this excited about a mix in years.
It's got something for everyone from industrial to hardcore to black metal to dark ambient to WEIRD AL YANKOVIC. I really think that anyone can find something they enjoy on this mix so please give these incredible artists a chance to be heard, even if its just once.

Enjoy

(don't give me shit about the Nirvana track. I know it wasn't released until 92 but it was recorded in 89 so THERE)

Audience recording of their live set at Royal Festival Hall - London
They perform "Ladies and Gentlemen we are floating in Space" in its entirety.
Recording quality is very good and the performance itself is excellent. Get into it

Much like Acid Mothers Temple, Sunburned Hand of the Man and every avant garde noise/freakfolk/weirdpunk band to ever exist, I have a hard time keeping up with their releases and find myself constantly playing catch up. On the bright side, there's a ton of material out there and mostly all of it is excellent.

This was recorded at Maximum Arousal in Oct. 08 and, like all micro releases, it was limited to 100 copies and sold out instantly. A great recording and one of my favourites from them. Highly recommended for fans of psych and Vermont.

If you don't download this you're laaameee
You know and love Thorr's Hammer and you've hopefully listened to Khlyst. This is her solo record released last year on Utech. A mix of drone, dark ambient and noise held together by vocals that fill you with a sense of dread. A truly organic record.
Mixed by Tore Ylvisaker of Ulver
