Granted some of the songs are not good, but overall one of the best ''feel good'' albums so far this year.

uhler · 10.09.2008, 01:34 AM

i'm going to wait until i get the hospitals record and a few others to make a list. it won't be top thirty just top ten.

atsonicpark · 10.09.2008, 09:39 AM

one of my favorites.

Derek · 10.09.2008, 10:12 AM

I've always been put off by James Blackshaw for some reason. I know I'd like him but uhhh I dunno, I'll get round to him one day.

atsonicpark · 10.09.2008, 10:20 AM

I like that one, too, but it falls into the next 10 best albums for me. Their pinnacle of achievement thus far was that Description of the Harbor LP that was available on vinyl for the blink of an eye on Awesome Vistas. That came out late in 2007, though.

It actually got comped onto that Long Way Round to a Short Cut CD which includes all of their 7" material and an otherwise unavailable track in addition to that album. That's definitely worth picking up.

Not sure if any copies are still lingering anywhere, but another cool thing the Sic Alps did this year was a one-sided 7" with a cover of "United" by Throbbing Gristle. It came out on Important in a buncha different colors. Blank label, no sleeve...destined to become a cool little mystery record in decades to come. It's a pretty blissful cover of that song.

batreleaser · 10.10.2008, 03:07 PM

sic alps have a very hard to pin down sound. sometimes thier abrasive enough to be considered some sort of noise rock band, but thier songs generally coil up into well done arrangements, melodies, and hooks. noise pop i guess, but for some reason they sound like something more. they were destined to release something on siltbreeze.

Holy Smokes! Back in April, Tzadik released a live benefit show for The Stone in NYC.
The Stone: Issue Three is an improvisational set by Lou Reed, Laurie Anderson and John Zorn.

Listening to it now! It's a Free Jazz Frenzy!

Album of the year!

Derek · 10.12.2008, 03:18 PM

Saint_Huck · 10.13.2008, 03:23 AM
