Nice to hear some love for that last Absu album - I thought it was totally tits but others I've encountered on this crazy mixed up internet thought it was shite.......

Your number 1 is great.

I'm really excited about the new one too, apparently the s/t album was the first in a trilogy of some sort with a linked theme running through it......

my rock n' noisy

sonic youth - daydream nation
velvet underground - white light white heat
dna - dna on dna
doo doettes - free rock
pussy galore - groovy hate fuck
butthole surfers - Psychic... Powerless... Another Man's Sac
melt banana - bambi's dilemma
unwound - leaves turn inside you
dead c - Harsh 70s Realitys
big black - songs about fucking

sigh.
