Not sure anyone needs Some Need It Lonely on vinyl.

Two new LPs though - live at CH (probably a recording of that performance a few years ago that was streamed from someone's phone, with the CH Tapes line up) and Is It The Clouds - something recorded at CH perhaps?

Good Cicatriz here from last night with a nice Can breakdown in the middle. Some ambient stuff cut from the middle sadly, but gosh they jamming huh.

Yeah, I think Philo Tsungui especially deserves a record. More than Elitch ever did. She's got a groove to her playing that I really like, even if she's a very different player to Jon (not that I'm making reductive comparisons). I don't feel the same way about tour bassist Josh Moreau. I've listened...

Oooh. Exciting and curious to see where they're taking things, how the sound is evolving, and if the current live band is the record band.

Really good Cicatriz.

I've watched a fair few of the recent bootlegs and I'm just not feeling Josh Moreau's basslines at all.

Too many slow jams for my liking. They could play one of Shore Story, Televators or The Widow and that'd be enough. Gutted that Viscera still isn't back on the setlist, or that they're not playing anything from Bedlam. Still not sold on Inertiatic being a good closer, either. I'm seeing them next mo...

Dude they're the same songs with different instrumentation.

Needs trumpet. And to be a 5-7 track EP.
