Birds chirping, railways humming, construction sites constructing, water falling... Ground Fault Series I, Dave Phillips, Aube...

I don't really have any big post idea conjured up here, just listening to Aube's Millennium [sic] and thinking out loud.

What's good?

Current 93 - If a City is Set Upon a Hill. A little more mellow than The Light is Leaving US All but beautiful and melancholic, as expected. I've only given it the once over so far, but definitely like it more than The Light... , which left a bit to be desired. I still think the last great Current ...

I fully intended on going this time but the ticket prices kept me away. I was shocked by them, actually.

Agreed. Beautiful art!

Will any US distro be carrying these?

I'll have some in Canada (Media Mail shipping rates to USA).

When international shipping rates often prohibit single-tape orders (i.e. ordering 1 tape costs the same as ordering 2-5, or more), batching is the logical answer.

I think it’s coming.

That's excellent news! Do you happen to know who might be putting it out?

Aurora Central

Lots of spam activity lately. Just enabled some better countermeasures, let's see if they work.

So many great Dead Kennedys gigs, one of the most documented punk bands of the era. https://youtu.be/Bp50gSJPFpE A recent favourite is one of their last shows. Someone keeps throwing beer cans at the band and eventually Jello dives off of stage to rough the guy up and extract him from the venue. D.H...

I am probably the only person who did not like Throw A Stone that much :) I found it a bit underwhelming in a way that every time I felt like now it is gonna get great it just stagnated. No fulfilment, kind of edging :) I am biased because I released the damn thing, but I will say that compared to ...

Painting anti-tapes, cutting inserts and flyers, gluing covers, making copies... full production mode over here. New releases next week!

Bonus points if literally every local project is put on the gig as an opener and there's like 12 acts on the flyer. I don't understand who on this earth wants shows with endless lineups, but it seems to be a consistent thing across many genres and has been for... as long as I can remember and it's ...

You're the curator, but if you ever decide to carry the "beat shit" releases on Phage Tapes, I'll sometimes buy them. Feel free to drop me a line here or via email or the "requests" area of the webshop for which ones you're after, more than happy to bring in specific titles for ...

Aqua Necromancer is literally just around the corner from yours truly.

Perhaps the forum can help me with a long term thing I've been trying to find with no luck. I read on some forum years ago of a documentary centred around the autistic/OCD bassist (I think) and leader of a prog metal band who drives trucks to earn a living, convinced his band are on the tip of maki...

Greg is on a fucking tear with this one. White-hot fury if there ever was any! This tape annihilates most others. Unrelenting.
