I ended up buying that Jessica Williams record on wax.

Unrelated, but this album has proven to be a grower in recent days:



Ignore if you haven't got patience for ambient type stuff.

Also, I'll probably be picking up this new cumbria adjacent thing later, which I've only heard bits and pieces of:

For all the shoegaze fans I’ve been really enjoying Slow Crush, Thirst. Borders on post-metal in spots, but if dreamy female vocals and walls of guitars is your thing you’ll probably enjoy.

Yeah, so I just squeezed a test drive of the new Mint Mile LP in and that is some proper shit. The most Crazy Horse type stuff T. Midge & Co. (in any iteration) have gotten up to, mostly on account of the bass and guitar sound, which almost feels like it's dipped in a bar room atmosphere (complimentary). Was around for a good deal of the eighties and got whiffs of the seventies then and the new one has that vague sort of patina with also a footing in the contemporary. I almost detected a little Bowie influence in the first track's vox. Second-to-last Albizi is a high note! Well done. Also, I've test run a few records in the past few weeks and this pressing was the very quietest LP of all of them. Like, NO surface noise. Woo-haa!

Also, that Money Chicha record mentioned upthread turned out to be swell. Has some deft colorful stuff on it. Not on-brand for PRF but way too good for a band I'd never even heard before.

And the new expanded and remastered The Return of the Durutti Column reissue is FUCKIN' ACE, if you weren't aware!
