Bratmobile - The Real Janelle + Peel Sessions
I thought their foul mouthed cheerleader, Martian surf guitar, and levitating drum thing was the best in the business when I first heard them, and I still do!

The Tower Recordings - Furniture Music for Evening Shuttles
The first I bought by them. I heard the name in reviews on the Aquarius newsletter and I had a policy then of buying everything I saw that was released on Siltbreeze. Thus discovered a woozy and spacey gem.

Dry Socket - The First Five Years
Don’t track much punk nowadays…especially of the hardcore variant, but occasionally a band catches my attention. Local band that shows that chugging guitars and ranting and unhinged screaming vocals is still a winning formula.

To the mild annoyance of Gareth whenever we play family games I put on the Cozy Synth channel and it led me to this project Trollslottet. I think considered dungeon synth, a genre I should enjoy more but it sounds like Vangelis doing one final concert in a freezing cave.

Grouper - Way Their Crept
Kranky has reissued Liz’s great first album. Hopefully more of this period gets unearthed as it’s as excellent as anything she’s done but with a distinct flavor of the dank basement noise scene we had on the west coast then.
