Jad Fair - The Zombies Of Mora-Tau

A real high point of cracked noisy insanity in the extensive discography of Mr. Fair, this 1982 EP was his solo debut.

Happy Day Of The Dead!

ZOMBIES

Legendary Pink Dots - Traumstadt 3

One of several pieces from this 5-tape series that have yet to see reissues, so here ya go. This lovely tape-only artifact contains ten songs from their mid-to-late 80's period, three of which are unavailable elsewhere. All tracks recorded live at various locations in Europe.

Maddeningly for us completists, there are a few tracks from both Traumstadt 1 and 2 that are not on the CD reissues. MIA from Vol. 1 (on Beta-Lactam) are "Close Your Eyes You Can Be A Space Captain" and "I Dream Of Jeannie".

From Traumstadt 2 (most of which is scattered across Stained Glass Soma Fountains and Under Triple Moons) the missing list includes versions of "Vigil-Anti", "Apocalypse Soon", "Suicide Pact", and "Violence", as well as the unknown-to-me "World War Six" and "Visitor To The Machine".

If anyone has the tapes, I'd love to put those tracks up here.

And now, the live tape:

LPDT3

No Trend - Too Many Humans

Great Flipperesque hate sludge from these DC misfits. Their 1st album, unfortunately not available anywhere. There are 9 early demos on a Teenbeat CD but I don't think they are the same versions, and certainly don't include a lot of the tracks here.

YOU BREED LIKE RATS

Annie Anxiety - live tape

Another true rarity here, not listed anywhere I can find. Four songs ranging from weird tape loop tracks to punk ragers. I think I hear Steve Ignorant in there on one track as well. Any information on this would be appreciated. More rare Annie Anxiety can be found HERE and her superb 1st LP Soul Possession is out there on the interweb.

AA LIVE TAPE

Christine Baczewska - two tapes

Ms. Baczewska does have a Discogs entry, but these two C15 tapes aren't in it. Fascinating songs built out of nothing but vocals and loops. Looks like the B-side of the first tape was featured on a 1990 CD compilation, and she was also in an earlier band called Care Of The Cow, who had one 1981 LP. Anyone got that?

Seriously recommended stuff here!

The Brain Itself Feels No Pain C15

I Am I C15

UPDATE: The album by Care Of The Cow and some comments from Ms. Baczweska herself are available over at Mutantsounds.

In Be Tween Noise

Steve Roden used to work under this name, and released two really great CDs in the late 90's. Not really ambient, but quiet for the most part and very beautiful. He has a lot of more recent work available under his own name, as far as I know these are long out of print. Released on his own New Plastic Music label.

So Delicate And Strangely Made

Humming Endlessly In The Hush

And hey, if anyone out there has a good rip of the "Archival" 10" that Anomalous put out, I'd really appreciate it.

New Boredoms uploads back HERE, at my very first post. These were requested and I am glad to present them.
