What are you listening to..ATM?

Enchanted by this when I first heard it in the winter of ‘76 and still enthralled with its atmospherics- also love the subtle high hat work-

 
So for something a little different- the past four days I’ve been moving from one storage unit to another owing to the former’s being demolished for a highway expansion (they knew about it in July but only told me a week ago). So after a long day in Gulf Coast Texas heat and humidity I found comfort in these two songs from, of all people, The Clash!




You know Paul Simonon regretted the destruction of that white P-bass in the iconic photo-

Personally, I think the male obsession with female looks has benefited Ms. Wilkenfeld. I don't think she would be getting near as much attention were it not for her pleasing aesthetics. In my honest opinion, there are quite a few better bassists that receive much less positive attention. I do not mean to detract from her abilities at all, she can definitely play, and in the music industry, which is all about entertainment, it is not unexpected. So, good for her and I hope she goes very far in her career.

I am not sure what to say about this, we could say the same things about MR Palladino for example who gets a lot of attention, without being exactly Vic Wooten. Not a hottie either.
It takes a lot to be in that league, and it is not about how spectacular you are as bass player, very little about the looks, and a lot about work ethics, and how willing you are to do a lot of sacrifices. I am pretty sure her spot is well deserved. And she is a great bassist anyway.
 
This is a friend's band, he plays the bass. I think after a while of playing they have finally found their self and their sound as a band. Production is big (what's with all new productions, they sound HUGE). Guest solo guitar by Thiago Oliveira and some very cool bass playing and tone from my friend Stavros.

I 've been maniacally listening to Enthrone Darkness Triumphant for the past three months. It's the soundtrack of my life. I think it's their best work by far, and I don't appreciate their other work much. I also happen to think that Nagash has done a marvellous job with the bass here. Going back to this record after something like 15 years, it's a completely different experience with much more detail.

Gateways had a few good moments, but nothing compared to In Sorte Diaboli and albums past. Cracker of an album.
 
Feeling a little nostalgic.......



Man they put on a great show!
 
I stumbled upon this interesting, and timely, video by a band called Fellow Robot and thought I would share it:
