i'm definitely excited to hear more about these albums, but i have never heard data ambient... 

I do believe Virologic at least could be described as Data Ambient, as could Cordell Klier. Search for the MP3s on that Cold Spring page and see what you think. 

 

is bloody brilliant! 

Just stumbled upon some nice droning:

I was going through a ton of CD's from the 90's that I keep up in a closet and I noticed I'm missing three cd's from a particular group. I can't remember the name of the group, nor the names of particular songs though a few tunes are running in my head.

The lead singer sounds like David Byrne and the band takes a similar Afro-Caribbean approach to their sound as did The Talking Heads. I skimmed a few best of the 90's album lists to see if that would pump my memory, but nada.

Who the hell is this band? 

 

I'm pretty sure it isn't. Thanks, though.
It's more than the Mormons who came to my door this morning were willing to do. I'm trying to recall a band name, and they are all like, 'have you been saved?' Like they just didn't get it, or something. 

 

I remember their hit from the 80's. Sort of appealed to the inner persecuted homosexual in everyone, just as Stumbling Towards Ecstasy appealed to everyone's inner new age feminist, Bulls On Parade to everyone's inner leftest punkass, and Back and Black to everyone's inner badass.

Music is the Universal Language.
Still not the correct group though. 

 

Did anyone here (Kell) make it to the Fields of the Nephilim show?

I'd be interested to hear any accounts. 

...Jane's Addiction? 

what's funny about this is I have a good idea who has the CD's, but I can't call them on it until I remember.

'You have those cds of mine from, uhm, that group?'

"what group are you talking about?"

'you know, the one who did the song Universal -- the title escapes me'

"Not ringing a bell."

'you know, they did a ballad, Heaven '

"Lotta groups have songs titled that."

'They turned part of Ginsburg's Howl into an upbeat ditty.'

"I can't help you."

"This is killing me!" 

They might be giants? 

Reverend Horton Heat?
Cream?
The Jimi Hendrix Experience?

Not TMBG or the ones listed in #408, I'm starting to feel like there may be a glitch in the Matrix. 

Jazzy Jeff? 

Found a mention of them in a Ron Jarzombek interview so decided to check them out and found lots of stuff on youtube. Got kind of hooked on Panasonic Youth (downloadable from their MySpace page) from their Miss Machine album and ended up grabbing the album too.

Greg Puciato's screaming sometimes gets a bit much, but he can kind of sing too, and the guitar and drum work more than makes up for it when you can hear it.

rocks.

you might like converge, too, although that's more metalcore than mathcore.

Any fellow Shantel fans here? I just got his new album Disco Partizani and damn it's nice. More vocals than on the Bucovina albums (don't know his other works) but well down. I love music from the balkan.

Can't see how one can enjoy that screaming growl metal rattattadam mess of noise above. I am missing rhythm and melody there. :o
