Jesus Lizard - Cold Water EP (Jetset)
Blue LP (Capitol)

Killing Joke - Killing Joke. (The one released in 2003 not the first one of 1980)

Wow - excited!! Entertainment! is one of my favourite albums of all time :-)

“I Told You I Was ill” is on Spike Milligan’s grave stone I think. “The Head…” is an interesting track name as well. So pleased to have some news, this is really good stuff!

Release in early 2009? That’s quite a gap between two records again.
But take your time to put together a “classic mix of intense instrumentation and dark pop” :-)

I hope this is a step in the right direction in terms of sound (IE: backwards). Hate to say it but their recent output hasn’t been too much to shout about.
Entertainment! is one of my favourite albums of all time. Stunning record. Getting Andy Gill on board HAS to be a good thing.

Glad we’ve had a bit of news, it had been awhile. A bit gutted its gonna be out in 09 but i’m just being greedy.

The longer it takes though could possibly mean better quality ? So good reason to be optomistic.

Do you think that with the album not coming out til 09 that there won’t be any gigs til then either? It has been over two years now since a UK , or did they do any last year? I can’t remember.

Charles Mingus was a really talented free jazz musician, also famous for being a bit of a mental. Sisyphus is a sexually transmitted disease. Put the two together and you get… Mingusisyphus :-s

The Head That Tried to Stangle Itself reminds of the sleeve artwork for Suicide Pact - the guy’s head wrapped round with rope or something

Sorry guys, but I’m going to close this discussion, as we now have two about the newly announced producer. While this is the first one, the other one started by Grant starts off more clearly about the subject and is titled as such. Sorry Gav, no offense meant, just trying to avoid confusion :-)
