try the link again, i fixed it.

i havn't had a problem with their mailorder, but then again, i don't live in mexico

of potential (but less likely) interest is a CD availble for order from blau faeturing Steve Moore Agency (a Steeve Moore/Don McGreevy/Karl Blau trio): http://kelplunacy.com/issues.html#kelp18 Not sure if this is before, during, or after their involvement in Earth...

Muchas Gracias! In the interview he said they have the summer booked for a US tour. I'm stoked...

You guys are welcome.

Mike Ziegler also taped Earth's set at Tractor Tavern in Seattle last night.

EARTH - 2011/03/03 Tractor Tavern, Seattle, WA - MASTER

dylan interview on this podcast thing from the guardian UK, mixed in w/ reviews of other stuff, starts about 21 minutes into the show...

http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/musi...-carlson-audio

got the LP in the mail the other day, SOOO good, beautiful red vinyl w/ laser etched 4th side. last track is so epic like being cast adrift in huge waves that never quite break...

So if I wanted to get started on Earth, where's a good place to do that?

hard to say, as Earth has taken a few different directions.

Earth 2
Pentestar
Hex

My favorite three.

hex
bees

intervie w/ adrienne in side bar!

looking forward to hearing from Rappard after the 6th

no other european tapers?

get "radio earth"
its a live album but its superb! thats what got me into them
im not into their droney period
super boring imo

Brugge is not in Holland I'm afraid....so no recording from me this time.

Alas and alack...

cheers in any case, hopefully hear some european shows eventually, will try to record them on west coast tour, not dates yet though

I'm uploading a recording of Earth's show in Gothenburg, Sweden on April 18, 2011 (source: Church Audio Microphones (CA-14 Cardioid) -> Soundprofessionals Batterybox (SP-SPSB-10) -> Edirol Digital Recorder (R-05) @ 24bit/48khz) to Megaupload. I'd like to hear some other recordings from the current tour. At the moment i only have the few that have been seeded to dimeadozen.

I was bummed that Earth cancelled their show in Mexico City due to some tragic circumstances the Melvins were involved in. It has been (unofficially) mentioned that they'll come to play in October. I recently acquired a Sony PCM M-10 handheld recorder, and if they actually visit my neck of the narco-woods, i would be very glad to record them. Guess i have time to save for some decent microphones, despite the fact that these are tough times.

I just posted this in the rare/oop thread, but I'll double up here too:

Earth: Live Europe 2006 (Southern Lord, limited run, out of print):

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=ZQCV8BF6

According to a taper friend the internal mics on the M10 are better than his CSB's, so not sure if you actually need to buy mics.

The only show i have a ticket for at the moment is Warpaint's at Voilá Antara in Mexico City on September 9. I hope some other acts that could instigate my interest to make the travel to the capital would be announced soon, so that i have the chance to test the recorder a bit further before hitting the Warpaint show and also Earth's performance (If it materializes).

I recently taped the Melvins' first ever show in Mexico City, and the Sony actually did a decent job, even though i'm not very familiar with the settings and i would bet there were possibilities of better results with more knowledge. Sadly, though, there was a girl at my right side whose excitement about the show resulted in her yelling and howling for the whole duration of the show, and her obnoxious noise is very present in the recording, to the point that i can't, for the life of me, consider it worthy of even a casual listen.

Michael Nyman will be in Mexico City next month, i'll probably attend. I'm not sure, though.

new west coast dates announced, I will attend LA, and am tempted to go to
San Diego as well, but we'll see...

No official dates have been announced for Mexico City, but i just came across this on Earth's facemook page:

 

Roman Tamayo

(innerview)

oh shit, just found these videos of Earth playing Blackwaterside (Traditional song popularizedd by Anne Briggs, Bert Jansch, Jimmy Page in Yardbirds & Zep), and I could not be more stoked!!!

Okay, I apologise for this in advance. I recorded the Earth show on 2011/07/23 at the Echoplex, Los Angeles, CA. However, I am having computer problems. So far, the only way I have been able to transfer my recordings to my computer is in 8 minute chunks. I made it so that there was a few seconds of overlap between tracks so no music is lost. The last track has a significantly more overlap. The recording quality is not the best, but not the worst ever either. I will attempt to resolve the editing issues soon. The performance was, in my humble opinion, extraordinary. So, as a preliminary teaser, here are the files as they stand now. There are some instances where the repetitive nature of the music masks the overlap, and other instances where it does not. I hope to post a better version of this soon.

Earth, 2011/07/23
Echoplex, Los Angeles, CA

Blackwaterside
Old Black
The Bees Made Honey in the Lion's Skull (for Jerry)
Coda Maestoso in F Flat Minor
Descent to the Zenith
Father Midnight (for Fred)
Ouroboros is Broken (for Greg)
Angels Of Darkness, Demons of Light (version, for Amy & Kim)

final song features a lot of improvisation, detuning, tremelo, and is extremely awesome!!!

hirsute biped, thank you so much for recording Earth. I'm still hoping they officially announce a date in Mexico City. I enjoy the "Angels Of Darkness, Demons Of Light" material immensely.

Earth have posted to their faceboob page that they'll be playing in Mexico City on October 8th. Psyched.

another interview, some gear talk. Angels of darkness part 2 supposed to come this fall?

http://consequenceofsound.net/2011/0...lson-of-earth/

when i saw them in July he was playing a Squier (!) telecaster w/ greatful dead and pinup girl stickers through a new-looking fender deluxe reverb. cello through a deluxe reverb too, I thought it could have benefitted from a bassier amp. I tried to look at his pedals, could only clearly see an aquapuss delay.

A recording of Earth's performance last weekend at the ATP festival is available for downloading or streaming on NPR:

https://www.npr.org/2011/10/05/14092...-festival-2011

I saw Earth last night in Mexico City, great show but very poor attendance. I don't think they will come back again and that kind of pisses me off but I'm thankful I had the chance to see them. Scored a copy of the "Earth Radio Live" LP at the merch table and got it signed by all current members of the band even though Lori Goldston and Angelina Baldoz didn't participate on that one. I recorded the show, and it sounds decent. I'll share my recording and some pictures I took just as soon as i'm able to.

EDIT:
Forgot to mention that Dylan said that "Angels Of Darkness, Demons Of Light II" will be out by the end of February of next year.

acidjack's recording of Earth's performance at ATP New York curated by Portishead is up at nyctaper:
