throbbing gristle in 2004

ok, i know we already have a thread about this

but i figured that not everyone who might be interested in the subject would have picked up on the thread title (sorry if i'm wrong). and more importantly, that thread doesn't mention that there's a full bootleg of the astoria gig on slsk! search for "throbbing astoria" and you'll find it. i'm only halfway through but it's amazing so far, maybe even better than tgnow (which is easily in my top 10 for the year so far, probably top 5).

so umm classic, i say, much better than they ever were before.

warning: you might have to have some err goth tendencies to really like this.

ok, maybe i was wrong about there being any demand for this thread.

just heard the astoria bootleg for the 2nd time - it's fantastic, apart perhaps from the versions of "what a day" and "discipline" at the end; i'm not convinced that the sped-up beats do them any favours. the other old stuff sounds amazing, though.

i guess tgnow is the album i've always wanted coil to make, really. "almost like this" is still blowing me away on every listen.

(I was so relieved when I clicked on this and there were no photos of Gen's boobs.)

Toby,

I'll add something when I get to listen to the Astoria bootleg - but slsk is still finding nothing on searches for me, so I'm having trouble getting hold of it (or TGNOW).

I am quietly paying attention.

I look so meditative!

I am stuffing a fist into my mouth and biting my knuckles to keep from giggling out loud or sharing gossip that I shouldn't.

How about Knobbing Thistle? I reckon they're about ten times better than the real thing.

But aren't thistles prickly?

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 7 June 2004 14:19 (twenty-one years ago)

Of course they are prickly. How else would they Fleece The Hand Of Chumps?

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAa

I had a dream the other night that Nick Cave was doing an arena tour with TG and Black Dice opening up for him. I blame ILX for this completely.

'almost like this' is my song of 2004 so far. still to hear the recording of the live show but TG in 2004 = classic x 1000.

is the soulseek bootleg a room or a board recording?

I liked the new 'what a day' myself.

audience, i'm pretty sure. but a very good one.

aldo - i'm afraid i had to burn and delete my copy cos my hard drive's so full, but ask in the ilm chatroom and i'm sure someone will search for you and pass on usernames - i will if no-one else will, anyway.

slsk seems to have started the morning working again. :-)

I have two versions queued at the moment, one with a quite short queue, so it shoud be down by the time I get back from work.

Joining chatrooms does funny things to slsk for me - or at least it did when I was running the previous version. I might try it again with this new one...
