I haven't heard that cover. I'd like to check it out as well.

So I checked out All The Pretty Horses, Of Ruine Or Some Blazing Starre, Crooked Crosses For The Nodding God, and Hypnagogue. Essentially everything I could get my hands on. Also Who Can I Turn To Stereo and Large Ladies With Cake in the Oven by Nurse With Wound, along with a whole bunch of Coil albums that I already had. Wow. I really like this music. The combination of ironic/apocalyptic lyrics with experimental and sacreligious mentalities and good instrumental and producing talent, makes some really great music, in my opinion. Any suggestions for further Nurse With Wound pursuits? I'm still trying to track down Thunder Perfect Mind. No luck, yet.

PM on the way.

"The Sylvie and Babs Hi-Fi Companion" is probably the best of their early-ish stuff, a strange pastiche of easy-listening music, that works better than it has any right to. The debut "Chance Meeting..." is well worth checking out, if just to see where all the insanity started.

Of their recent albums, check out the beautiful, sombre "Acts of Senseless Beauty", long violin pieces with atmospherics laid on thick, or "An Awkward Pause", which was Stapleton's attempt at krautrock. "An Awkward Pause" also contain's David Tibet's most barking mad vocal line ever, it's worth buying just for that.

Some others would be A Sucked Orange, Large Ladies with Cake in the Oven and Sugar Fish Drink.

The last two are singles comps.

Awesome. Thanks for the suggestions, guys. I'll see what I can find.

I'm currently listening to All the Pretty Horsies (downloaded) and it sounds great! Insane, something to scare people away with, which is nice

they're sort of like 'goth folk' music. the 'singer' is struggling constantly with staying in tune. some may call anything 'off kilter' as avant-garde, but i wouldn't classify them as such.

and the term "experimental" music has a different meaning for many. if we're talking literally, then any music that is not 'corporately manufactured' would be experimental. but if we're talking the actual definition of the genre experimental music (which would of course, consist of artists using experimental techniques - as opposed to just trying shit out with no idea what they're doing), then 'current 93' would not be classified under experimental and certainly not avant-garde (which means using 'breakthrough' techniques, typically consisting of some kind of eastern flair). john cage, philip glass, steve reich, wendy carlos, etc. all those would be prime examples of artists who fall into the avant-garde category. mr. bungle, yes, king crimson, the residents, michael nyman, cope, etc. would fall into experimental.

but 'current 93' have a fairly interesting style, but unless your some kind of anglo-phobe (which i'm not, even though i'm from brixton, heh) there's not a great attraction to this one ... in my opinion.

yes, i do like them so much. even yet, i just own 3 of their albums, i downloaded them some time ago, i didnt know that there are so many more out there

im gonna check what i can get..

..i dont know what you guys think of Dead Can Dance,
the music is a bit different as you know, current 93 is
incomparable to everything i know, but i enjoy listening to them
both and in some way i think there is a connection...
