Salamander
 

it is my happy joy to make thread start most best musical happening.

please to discuss them favorite sound below. I'll start:

Birds of Appetite is the best album ever to be created by human beings. it has everything. between the ritualistic blood-letting ceremony of The Vessel is Vacant, Leonard Nimoy samples and the 20:15 minute opus that is Trench of Fire, this album alone will assure mankind's place in the stars.

had this record been more easily available, they would certainly have placed a copy of it (along with the stiffened leather pants seldom removed by the band's guiterrorist) on the V'ger probe so as to be appreciated by distant cultures past.

this album is SO FUCKING GOOD it makes me want to illegally download the rest. makes me. download. illegally.

When I'm in the mood for a bit of Salamander I just click on the Youtube Mix grab me a bottle of Crantonberg, sit back and put my fingers in my ears.

that sounds very goth.

black lace curtains: open to the night or drawn tightly shut?

I'll tell you my answer if you tell me yours.

Let's not let this thread lose momentum.

Salamander are the shits.

I like to listen to them in the garden while the "music" is playing in the drawing room.

I'm going to start a Wikipedia page right now.

Um, thanks.
Flotz, unless you want to wait a couple of months, go ahead and illegallize the download action. I have "staged' my house for sale, and as such am trying to make it look like people with no interests or passions live there. MY record collection is packed up and I can't upload anything at the moment.

My awesome formerly-orange living room is not a very safe shade of.....beige.

Sigh.

PM links to flotz. He will love you. I don't mind.

I didn't see the responses to this thread past pookzilla.

please dear god HALP me unfundso. you are my only hope.

this saddens me terribly.

And as of this morning, after 20+ hours of floor refinishing and an incredibly sore body, considering I do manual labor for a living and should be used to such things....General Audience Clone Home:

I have Nerds of Appetite but that's it.

I'm desperately desperate for more.

in all seriousness, Salamader are the most crucial spacerock psyfolk musical ascension device ever created by the hands of man.

in my heart, in a seat of honor next to sonic youth, they sit, holding court in the golden chambers of a room I call favorite band.

I listen to them, on repeat, constantly. there's not a single song that receives fast-forwarding....

how can this be???

45 years from now, as you tell your granddaughter Sally about the time you "posted on a messageboard" with a member of Salamander, she'll ask you (quite innocently) what a "messageboard" is, but won't need to ask about Salamander; all the kids in 2056 know their name.

me? I'll still be upon my throne of bat wings and skeleton fingers, ritualistically chanting the coda that induces my aural augmentation device to playback. I smile and nod, waving my mechanical replacements for meat parts along in time, content in knowing that I'm still more goth than Pookie's waifu.

You can currently order BoA on double LP from a Belgian retailer for a mere 99.99 Euro!
What a steal.
Still a better deal than the price asked by the ridiculously-insane Mpls retailer Shuga, but not as cheap as the perennially-available Musicstack retailer in Australia who lists it at $48.00.
