"With Velvet Underground bandmate John Cale by her side, this motivation, teamed with Nico’s new beloved instrument—a harmonium chosen in part because of its portability and religious-sounding drones—paved the way for The Marble Index."

The Marble Index — How Nico captured the true heart of sorrow:
How Nico captured the true heart of sorrow
Produced by The Velvet Underground bandmate John Cale, Nico's 1978 album The Marble Index was never meant to be an easy listen. It's an avant-garde triumph.

"For Kurt this was a chance to prove he was more than just “the grunge guy”, more than screaming and volume and smelling like teen spirit; something that was important to him if he was to have a future in music. He was also, however, terrified."

Beauty. Pain. Catharsis. Whatever: Nirvana do MTV Unplugged | The Quietus
Thirty years after the release of the band's Unplugged in New York album, Marc Burrows explores the fraught session that saw Nirvana go acoustic before an audience of friends, peers, and, for some reason, Kate Moss

I love the Vivian Girls but never saw them play live. Plenty of great clips on YouTube but this film of a short set at the Whitney Museum is my favorite. Tell the World is such a jam.

ALBUM OF THE WEEK: 'Nobody Loves You More' by Kim Deal

Deal’s solo debut has been in the works for some years, but the wait has been worth it as she delivers an eclectic work balancing grief-themed numbers with adventurous indie rock.

The album contains an unusual version of "Lola" by the Kinks.

If anyone is starting to do end of year polls I strongly recommend considering Sealionwoman - Nothing will Grow in the Soil. Probably won't get too much coverage but it's one of the best of year if you ask me.

A post about Robbie Yeats’ drumming got me thinking of the Dead C. The first track from Repent is some kind of musical alchemy (sorry no Bandcamp so here’s the YouTube). First got into them in the late 90s then became obsessed with the Corpus Hermeticum label for years.
