Here's another fun blast from the past. More spooky post-punk from the 80's. I find the video and hairstyles rather comical now, but then I'm sure it was thought edgy… Music is still good though. 
Bauhaus - She's in Parties
And here is a dreamy beautiful instrumental verging on ambient from one of the most sublime supergroups and labels of the 80's (This Mortal Coil, 4AD).
This Mortal Coil - Ivy and Neet
And a wonderful emotionally dark and desperate song/vocal.
This Mortal Coil - I Want to Live
And this one, just gives me tingles. Not sure how to classify it. It has a very strong chorale part, and watery keyboards, and a heavy dry beat, plus strings of course.
This Mortal Coil - Strength of Strings
Also wonderfully heavenly and dark at the same time.
This Mortal Coil - Tarantula
And not to be forgotten…"he worships God with ashes"
This Mortal Coil - The Jeweler

Jeez. another the letter is furious. brilliant. and in defense to the audience… to me it would have taken days to even realize what i had just witnessedI saw them perform once. In around 1987 in Seattle a few years before the explosion of the grunge scene. It was a small club and the tight energy was beyond incredible. Thought the place was going to implode.![]()

Seems like new Wilson rec is finally listenable on tube:

Songs are really cool, but the sound, the sound is like the best ever.
Just check the solo at 4:00+ in the third track.

Listening to online radio: Radio Ton.
Fantastic station, they play rock&pop from the 60s - 90s. A lot of classics. Excellent easy-going listening that doesn't get on ones nerves as much as lots of modern radio music has a tendency to do.

A bit more poppy offering from 4AD circa 1989-1990. Shoegazing with a slight poppy moddish influence. Love the rich noise. Became more poppy later. Good but different. Still rather hypnotic. 
Ultra Vivid Scene - Mercy Street
Less noise, more driving pop / punk / new wave
Ultra Vivid Scene - Staring at the Sun
Plus some organ and Kim Deal on background vocals.
Ultra Vivid Scene - Special One
Ultra Vivid Scene - Lightning
Ultra Vivid Scene - Three Stars
more bluesy, even has a Led Zeppelin "When the Levee Breaks" sound in the instruments.
Ultra Vivid Scene - Blood and Thunder

been stuck on Cannibal Corpse lately…. Gallery of Suicide is their finest album.
A lot of people may laugh at this, but I'm telling you - they are a solid bunch of musicians! Their particular strain of death metal is technically impressive, with the outright speed / tempo changes in both guitar and drums is awesome. The thing I like about this vocalist (george "corpsegrinder" fisher) is that unlike most death metal vocalists, he actually is (somewhat) understandable and his pitch changes from a low gutteral rumble to an outright shriek. He sounds like a monster, a madman.
The lyrics of course are pretty hilarious, once you know them it enhances the experience. Strolling thru the office humming "Blood Drenched Execution" is a sublime experience.
Great album!

Dang it, do I want to spend bank for sold-out Sufjan Stevens tickets? Last time he came through town I was broke and I still regret it, but more than a hundred bucks?

Was listening to Mike & The Mechanics tonight. Cool stuff. They played songs that you might already know from the radion, but not realize that they made them … On top of the iceberg 2 Genesis songs.
Very cool show.
They played almost only hits - like the tour's name : http://mikeandthemechanics.com/live/
