    — I will 
    "Even with your fears, your doubts, would you come for me?"

    Anyone else finding themselves more frequently asking that pivotal question regarding vinyl purchases: "Is this something I'm likely going to NEED and keep forever?" Witness these pending PO's that formerly would already be locked in: 1. Helms Alee, 2. ERR (RC would have been a good timing to wait re: shipping, but RC is always a forever/need), 3. Alcest Box Set 4.True Widow, just to name a few biggies for me. I need to hear more of the music first!:(

      Yes, the Albini factor. He really has had the Midas touch on many peoples' ears, mine included. Esben And The Witch had him do their last album, which I listened to at least 15 times, but only the single really resonated with me. BTW: I caved on the Alcest 3xLP Magenta:Black marble box. Probably jinxed that one good now. Sargent House will have to wait...

      I missed that /100, but probably would have caved. I have a /100 Clear Circumambulation that was less than $50 on ebay, since the seller did a true auction. Hoping they have a box left at Relapse of that /100, but I still want to hear more first.

    Sheer - Monochrome / Song of the year, maybe the last 5 years

      drds89

      Thank you for taking time to listen and comment Charlie, Zach and Owen. It's a very personal thing, and a rarity. For those who listened and it was not your cuppa, and refrained from dissing, thank you as well. I try to do so unless asked point blank for an honest opinion. This music business is frighteningly subjective.

      Heavenly, Orion and several others are incredible; my least favorite ironically is the title track - they had someone else produce it. Would be nice done slow and acoustic I bet. I messaged Gina for the lyrics to Monochrome, which is exceedingly rare, because instrumental and shoegaze are so nice without that 'hassle' on my brain of decoding lyrics. She responded right back, very gracious, as I was wavering on whether to ask and if I really wanted them. They are simple and spot on.

      mirror image symmetry in the song structure is unconventional, but seems to have built it to last forever.

      soft Intro... Verse`... Chorus...interlude...Chorus... Verse`...soft Outro

      They don't repeat the passionate hooks of the Verse and Chorus into oblivion. Completely addictive, and I can't even decipher 1/2 the lyrics after 25 listens. And don't care. /gumbo

      Glad you are getting into them! So talented. Hozoji is just an incredible drummer (and multi-instrumentalist). If I were 20 years younger (and she was straight), I'd be stalking her haha ;) Night Terror is just an incredible album; Weatherhead has some great tracks, but not as strong all the way through

      Sorry I forgot the j/k font on the Jakob comment above - that's cool, are you referring to Sisters Of? And just maybe, since Jakob's long awaited album is finally getting pressed, TOOL will finally finish theirs and get the Kiwi's to come open for them in the US. Just thinking out loud :)
