Procreation of the Wicked

Snagged Celtic Frost's "Morbid Tales" out of a pawn shop a couple weeks ago. Probably going to throw down something off that tonight. I'm on 9-midnight MST as usual. Have a request? Drop me a note here or call me at the station 406-994-4492. Not sure what else I'm going to dig up. I also picked up Cryptopsy-None So Vile at the pawn shop so something off that.......Hopefully, I can pull it together today. I have a lot to do before the show that is not music related. I need a robot to do that dumb shit for me. If not before the show, there is plenty at the station for me to pick from. I'm thinking about going a little more towards the metal. At least that is my mood right now. See how it goes at showtime.

Lou!

Lou Reed is the man.



It looks like Lou is going to release all sorts of goodies through his website.

Here is the deal straight from the source:

We have formed a recording unit Called BEST SEAT IN THE HOUSE. We intend to put out different types of my music - from industrial to meditative to songs and all subway stops in between. Our first release is a live recording of 2 great nights live at the REDCAT in L.A. THE CREATION OF THE UNIVERSE. You can download it at various qualities as per your download taste. We include some pics by me. We will be putting it out as A2X CD soon - CREATE!
--Lou Reed

The first release is an experimental piece. If it is anything like the one with John Zorn and Laurie Anderson then it is going to be killer. I just ordered my copy of this new one. It is available in digital and physical formats. Since I am old school I got the CD. That comes with digital too though. You have a choice of flac or high quality mp3. Hell yeah Lou! Keep em' coming!

Scream for me Christchurch!

One of my good friends is going to see Iron Maiden in Christchurch, NZ this month. I am f'n psyched for him. I've seen the Irons three times but not since 1999. I am one jealous bastard.

Live at Sun Flancisco!!!

Finally picked up this CD/DVD set. Boredoms-Live at Sun Flancisco. The damn thing runs for close to 60 bones. I found a listing on ebay for $27 including shipping and I jumped all over it. I went to this show at the Independent in San Francisco with my man Mark in PDX (now DUB) and his buddy. I had no idea it was being filmed for a release when I was there. What a great time and I am happy as a pig in shit to have it in the collection.

At the show I picked up this kick ass print made by Eye.



It hangs in my daughter's bedroom and it officially makes her the coolest kid in Montana.

To all Boredoms fans (especially Z in Ontario)-----GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fuck all the Dumb Shit

This is all I've got to say.



OK, I've got some more shit to say.

Check out this studio clip from Slayer----http://www.spin.com/articles/exclusive-video-slayer-studio

Best fucking metal band to have walked God's dead Earth.

SSS On Facebook

When it comes to these social networking sites I am basically clueless. I hate myspace because it is loaded with garbage and the pages load too slowly. So, I decided to make a Facebook page for the radio show just to see what it's all about. Link up with me at the Soothing Soul Suckers group or under my user name "Af Nk".

Next Year's Super Bowl Entertainment

There has to be some sort of antidote for the cheese doled out by the pseudo Springsteen last night. Help bring back real rock and roll to the festivities. Let's dig up the skeletal remains of G.G. Allin and let the Murder Junkies play while the fans molest the corpse.

Bring Out Your Dead!

______________________________________________________________
The guy in this picture will not be attending the Super Bowl today.

That's because he has been replaced by this dead-ass doppelganger.



Sure, some of the songs will bear a similarity to the first guy. But trust me, the guy in the second picture is the man performing them. A man who sold out his band, his fans and himself when he married some actress and moved to L.A. in the 80's. Sorry people, Bruce Springsteen died during the making of the Born in the U.S.A. album. Some of his songs made the album like "Darlington County" and "I'm On Fire". The doppelganger took over and gave us "Cover Me", "Dancing in the Dark" and every piece of shit album that came out after that.

Here's hoping his balls explode in front of a worldwide audience. If that happens make sure you are listening to this instead.

Lumpy Money Review

I got my copy of Lumpy Money earlier this week. Not a bad offering from the Evil Empire (aka the Zappa Family Trust).

The gems of this set are the orchestral Lumpy Money and "How did That Get in Here?", the extended piece which opens disc 3. I could do without Disc 2 however. It includes an unreleased mix of Lumpy Gravy from 1984 which includes the obligatory 80's drums and bass and the out of print but cheaply found remix of We're Only In It For the Money from the original Ryko issue of the CD. Maybe it will grow on me. The WOIIFTM does have better sound than the old disc so........we'll see. It's not horrible, it just isn't as good as the original. Also, included is a mono mix of WOIIFTM. I like it. Some people think mono sucks. I am not one of them.

The packaging is kind of cheap but unlike the Mofo Project set the package does not turn into a disc eater. I pray to Satan every time I try to remove a disc from the jaws of the Mofo set. Overall, I give the release a Pitchfork style rating of 8.2.

LS mf D!!!

Can't embed this one so here's the link--->LS mf D!!!

Life Sex & Death. An early 90's metal band who's schtick was having a homeless person named Stanley as the lead singer. Sure, Stanley was a bogus gimmick but he was a good front man and the band could rock. We saw these guys at the Phantasy Theater in Cleveland. Stanley may not have been a real homeless dude but he was still pretty gross.

Thanks to the guy who requested Metal Church. That song was a blast from the past to the old Z Rock days. To those who don't know, Z Rock was a syndicated metal station out of Dallas. We got it for a year or so in Cleveland in the mid-80's. It was tits. I don't know if I had heard that song more than one or two times since 1986 but I knew every word.

Comp is temporarily fucked

Need a new power cord (again). Will update with my playlist from the last show when I get a chance.

P.S. Igor, you bastard!

Radio Show Tonight

Heading out to Bozeman later to do the show. Probably going to play something off this....



One of the best rock albums of all time. Before they added the infernal "Railroad" to the name. Kicks ass all the way through.

If you are up for listening go to www.kglt.net and click on streaming audio. Soothing Soul Suckers will be on at 9 p.m. Mountain time until midnight. I'm digging through my personal vault so I've got a bunch of stuff I haven't heard in a while on tap.

Bob Dylan Isis Live 1975

The definitive version of Bob Dylan's "Isis" performed on the Rolling Thunder Revue. It makes the album version sound dead in comparison.

Ooo Hoo It's Halloween

Corpse Paint. Fucking ridiculous. This picture was taken by Peter Beste and is included in his coffee table book (ha ha ha wtf!) True Norwegian Black Metal. This picture cracks me up. The look on that woman's face is priceless. What an idiot that guy is. I think he is from the band Gorgoroth. They are cool and all but the schlock value is high with that stupid look.

If i'm going to be digging some corpse paint it's going to be this guy. King Motherfucking Diamond. I like black metal but blow me grim Norwegian douchebags.

America Fuck Yeah!

Watching this Triumph of the Will-esque inauguration. The theme song for this day is obvious.

Freedom with their exception

"Eye of the Beholder" by Metallica has been in my head today. To me, the lyrics of the song not only refer to how governments limit free speech but also how internet message boards often turn into a dictatorship with an army of sycophants guarding the gates. Generally boards deteriorate over time because of ego and cowardice. The argument for harsh speech regulations is that a board is private therefore free speech does not apply. O.K., I don't argue the legality of the issue but anyone with a little self-respect should be able to handle the opinion of others. Popular or otherwise. The only instances I ever interfere with speech is removing spam or deleting personal info that is posted without consent. Anything else is fair game unless I am directed by law to remove it.

A common version of the internet dictatorship is opening a board with a famous person as the draw. Too many boards ride the jock of a famous person to build a private cult of personality. These places should be smashed.
