re: yesterday... brianwood.com underwent a redesign and is now white, minimal + stylish as we like it. and i had me some quality time with those vinyl-on-demand releases, especially the frieder butzmann release, and - i´m sorry to have to turn around 180 degrees here but i now officially like avantgarde/noise music. one hell of a record. |

the top three of autobiographical comics/zines: 3. john porcellino bittersweet, punk-spirited, naive-but-in-a-good-way, contemplative and all around lovable little stories. the king of mini-comics. beautiful. 2. jeff zenick his books are basically just diaries with drawings. jeff put all his belongings into storage and travels around, riding his bike, working the odd job, all the time writing and drawing. the people he meets, the landscape. simple yet introspective. it´s been some time since i got a new book by him, so i guess i have no way of knowing, if he still does them. i hope he does. 1. harvey pekar you´ve seen the movie now read the book. if you haven´t seen the movie, do so (harvey sure needs the money). then read the book. honest, sometimes painfully so, two-fisted autobio from a man from the streets. |

my second vinyl-on-demand membership shipment arrived + the product design is - again - top notch. i like my vinyl a bit less heavy, but that´s just me i guess (remember me to one day explain why i prefer softcover books over hardcover ones). musicwise i could live with the label catalog being not that fixated on "die tödliche doris" and i still have to learn to love so-called "avantgarde" and/or noise music. nevertheless, there are some records one just should not miss, namely potenzstörung (vod03) & weltklang/exil system (vod09). and the upcoming releases look pretty neat too. |

enfant terrible is a new label from holland. first release is cfx vs. xndl. dark neofolk electro. which we like a lot. and what we like even more is the fucked up elektro cover the kommando6 folks did of danzig´s "mother". |

gotta admit i´ve been kinda avoiding updating this here blog. but i had myself a nice + relaxing holiday in italy. up a hill + far away from people. and then came back home to a shitload of work that had piled up while i was gone. "you always wind up paying a price for getting away" to quote a wise man... |
