The reason I ask is that new releases tend to retain around the £15 mark, and 30x15 isn't a massive amount of money, but it's still an amount of money.

yes, plus buying all the records that didn't make it in to the top 30, plus buying records that didn't come out this year

What, are you saying that people download music instead of buying it? WHAT THE FUCK!

[SuperCreep]

Top thirty? Er, I'd struggle enough to do a top ten.

I've liked all of these albums so far this year:

New Portishead
New Bar Kokhba
New Fall
New Sparks
New M83

After that, there's about twenty-some odd albums I've heard that I haven't particularly cared for. It's only June, though.

[batreleaser]

i forgot sensitive/lethal, the only solo thurston album ive ever really gotten into.

[atsonicpark]

didn't really dig new m83...

[atsonicpark]

SCISSOR SHOCK - "SYNONYM FOR THE WORD DECAY" I uploaded it here:

http://www.sendspace.com/file/3jppyp

12 songs, 40:40, about 36mb.

going to be released on nyc-based laser seizure records sometime this year in an edition of 50.

I sent it to a few people in PM's who I thought might really want it but I fiugred I'd post it here for other people who wanted it. Enjoy.. hope you all like music!

no neither did i, its total pants... french pants at that..... there is a band that started great and turned shite with every release.... musical erosion!

stereolab aint out til august but................................

It's even more annoying when people who don't buy all these records have the fucking cheek of pushing their shit, redundant, risible opinions about.

[ZEROpumpkins]

Autechre's latest was pretty trendy.

[batreleaser]

i never really much liked m83. certainly not a bad band just not my thing really.

[SuperCreep]

I'll say that the new M83 is a bit cheesy-sounding, which I can see putting off a lot of people. I personally can dig it. It's certainly not great or anything and it probably won't stay in my top five (or even top ten, maybe) when the year is done, but it's a good New Order/MBV-ish throwback that I'm enjoying as of this point.

[Derek]

The new Off Minor is good.

[atsonicpark]

So many people were trying to download the first link that it kept giving errors, and my friend in bubblegum octopus bitched about it being a rar so here's the .zip version: http://www.sendspace.com/file/nlur3a


if you can't figure out if it's worth the download, there's two new songs on myspace...

also, whoever downloads it, if you would please give me some comments, good or bad, so i can fill out the quotes thing on the myspace.

okay, back to the top 30 thread!

thanks,, the first download DID suck, im listening to this on my ipod now. its definitley scissor shock's most varied release. i can hear a lot of your influences in this one, omoide hatoba, fahey (fahey ghost), the residents, derek bailey, some autechre on the more electronic tracks. this is good shit. ill have to listen to it more before i decide how it matches up with your other releases though.

p.s.
the "folk" tracks definitley work, cheers

[atsonicpark]

thanks man, glad you like... the next release is definitely going to be more folky but with you know.. weird shit I guess.. haha.

[Derek]

I'll download tomorrow and tell you what I think Adam.

[Everyneurotic]

by the way, i think my favorite album of the year so far is suishou no fune's prayer for chibi, and that's incredibly odd because i seldom have absolute favorites in my life.

but yeah, the best most powerful album of the year to this date.

 

[SuperCreep]

^I'm getting that if only for the cover.
