What I bought in Melbourne

So for the last 5 days I've been staying at my aunt and uncles house in Richmond, Melbourne. It's a great place, right next to the MCG, shame there wasn't anything on. Anyway, seeing as Hobart is a rubbish place to live for any music enthusiast, I decided to spend most of my times in record stores in Chapel street. Everyplace I went into I got the dirtiest looks, I can't blame them though. I'm sure that a 15 year old with long hair hanging around in record stores on a weekday isn't exactly commonplace.

Anyway, I picked up a couple of books, a Cure t-shirt, new shoes and 5 new CD's, which I'm quite happy with to be honest. The CD's I bought were the remastered version of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band by the Beatles, a special edition of Goo by Sonic Youth, featuring 20 outtakes and demo tracks, Kicking Against the Pricks by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds which I bought for $6.00, the Stones Roses self titled and Since I Left You by the Avalanches. Since I'm amazing I'll be posting all these in FLAC and maybe AAC, except for Sgt. Pepper's. I mean if you guys really want it I'll upload but I doubt I'll ever post it, it'll get taken down way to fast.

Anyway, I was bored and figured I'd make a post.

P.S. Eliot - The Bike Wreck Demo (2008)

Catchy fuzz-pop from Alabama. This would include their kinda new full length but I'm lazy, I'll post it tomorrow probably. Also I'm going to Melbourne in a couple of weeks so expect many many more FLAC rips of some great albums.

Arthur & Yu - In Camera (2007)

Swans - Children of God and the Great Annihilator (1987 & 1995)

Sorry I haven't posted in like a month and a half, I had to deal with more real life stuff.

Anyway, Swans is a band everyone knows but still, I want to post these two albums. I was browsing through my old mediafire account the other day and saw that these two albums were the highest downloaded albums on there, with like a combined total of 1200. I was like cool.

And from now on I'm going to try and post relatively underground bands with the odd favourite album. I mean there's no point posting something that's been on just about every other blog out there. Anyway, enjoy the albums.

Hatred Surge - Deconstruct (2009)

Amon Düül II - Yeti (1970, Liberty Records)

Old Mayor - Old Mayor (2009, Paradigms Recordings)

I'm on a huge sludge/doom binge at the moment, can't get enough of the stuff, expect more sludge posts in the near future. Anyway 6 tracks and 32 minutes of crushingly heavy sludge from Brighton in the UK. They've played with the likes of Boris, Russian Circles and Orange Goblin, pretty good for a virtually unknown band.

Black Pyramid - Black Pyramid 7" (2008, Electric Earth Records)

Black Sabbath worship.
