Ferric Archaeology: The Apostles - 2nd Dark Age Demo (1982) C60
http://noisewinkle.blogspot.com/2015/08/the-apostles-2nd-dark-age-demo-1982-c60.html
Rummaging around in the underpants of musical history, then sniffing our fingers while no-one's looking. Monday, 3 August 2015. The Apostles - 2nd Dark Age Demo (1982) C60. One of the first tape labels I ever wrote to was Cause for Concern, run by one Larry Peterson. I'd been hammering Flowmotion for their reissued Throbbing Gristle live cassettes for a couple of months, and now my curiosity had been drawn by Larry's Sudden Surge of Power. I ended up in. As utter rubbish, his exact words being:. Anyway, ...

An Englishman in Texas: Arse
http://englishmanintx.blogspot.com/2015/07/arse.html
An Englishman in Texas. Friday, 31 July 2015. It was Monday evening and I'd been struggling with a pain in my lower gut for most of the day. To be specific, pain. What do you think? I don't know,' my wife told me. Man, this be some good shit right here,' I told Bess without any of the irony which would ordinarily have underlined such an observation. I knew the morphine and the drip meant there was a possibility of my being in serious trouble, but for the moment I didn't really mind too much. Into the tap...

Ferric Archaeology: The Post-War Busconductors - The Nightmare Begins... (1981) C60
http://noisewinkle.blogspot.com/2015/08/the-post-war-busconductors-nightmare.html
Rummaging around in the underpants of musical history, then sniffing our fingers while no-one's looking. Monday, 10 August 2015. The Post-War Busconductors - The Nightmare Begins. (1981) C60. Less obviously stupid. I was already recording solo tapes as the Post-War Busconductors, and so that's where this came from. The Nightmare Begins. Was never my first album, but it was the first one without bum jokes. By Terrance Dicks. I would have been about eight, and I still have no idea whether this tune was...

Wednesday, 4 March 2015. There's another installment of my Raffy the Psychiatric Labrador. Strip in the new issue of Southwark Mental Health News. CD of mostly exclusive stuff by Alternative TV, Ceramic Hobs, UNIT, Mex, the Astronauts and others - and it's a proper CD with a case and a cover and everything too, not some hokey CDR shit.

Pamphlets of Destiny: August 2015
http://gnomeship.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 26 August 2015. Star Wars: A Long Time Ago. Archie Goodwin, Carmine Infantino and many, many others. Star Wars: A Long Time Ago. I was twelve when Star Wars. Came out, and naturally I was excited about the whole thing before I'd even seen it. I'd read the two giant-sized Marvel specials - weird collectors editions the size of tabloid newspapers - and I'd read that first issue of Starburst. And a couple of those other tie-in making of. Didn't disappoint when it arrived, although on close inspec...

An Englishman in Texas: August 2015
http://englishmanintx.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
An Englishman in Texas. Friday, 28 August 2015. In June, 2004, I finally went mad; not mad as in drinking quite a lot, having a curry, then climbing atop a bus shelter with my trousers worn upon my head, nor mad meaning I walked through the village one Sunday wearing a rather unusual hat. Like one of those tediously middle-class fuckers who used to write in to John Peel's Home Truths. Radio show; no - my madness took the form of serious clinical depression. Music wasn't really an option, because it was t...

Ce Acatl: June 2015
http://onereed.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Monday, 29 June 2015. Is the new Faction Paradox. Novel for which I painted the cover. The eBook is already available, and the paperback will be available very soon from Obverse Books, the website of which is to be found by following this link. By hovering the little arrow over the underlined word link. When it came out in paperback, somehow missing the point that it was the feckin' paperback to which I was referring. Anyway, Head of State. So once again, as this is apparently quite difficult:. Wax Cylin...

Ce Acatl: Their Darkest Hour
http://onereed.blogspot.com/2014/12/their-darkest-hour.html
Tuesday, 16 December 2014. A few years ago I was in a band called Konstruktivitsts, famously or semi-famously instigated by Glenn Wallis, one time Whitehouse ivory tickler and Throbbing Gristle bag carrier. We recorded one album whilst I was in the band, although my favourite stuff emerged from sessions prior to that, just Glenn and myself at his house in Norwich hammering out a few ideas directly onto his portastudio. Happily Monsieur Y. Ooh ooh - I also play on Housewife's Choice. Wax Cylinders of Exci...

An Englishman in Texas: March 2015
http://englishmanintx.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
An Englishman in Texas. Friday, 27 March 2015. The issue was, I guess, not specifically that Tim was hilariously square, socially awkward, and conspicuously in the thrall of a seemingly domineering mother, but that he was all of these in conjunction with being loud and sometimes quite pushy. He was an abrasive personality and didn't seem to realise it. He had about him the quality of a manic schoolboy and people found it unsettling. I liked Tim, or at least I didn't actively dislike. The trouble was that...
