X, Los Angeles, 1980 on Slash

Debut LP from John Doe, Exene Cervenka, DJ Bonebrake and Billy Zoom. Produced (as were the next three X albums) by The Door’s keyboardist Ray Manzarek.

I was just mentioning Slash! records earlier this week – “Los Angeles” was a cut on the Slash! sampler Early Sessions and that was my intro to the band. Great LA punk band rooted in a kind of punk folk / Americana.

My copy—via Slipped Disc at a record fair at Mill No 5 in Lowell MA—is a 1983 speciality pressing with the Slash blood labels.

🇫🇷 🇩🇪 Kompromat "Traum und Existenz" – 2019

A dark blend of EBM, techno and coldwave, sung in German with raw urgency. The record pulses with industrial energy, mechanical beats and hypnotic atmospheres, both intimate and confrontational. A modern descent into shadowy electronic soundscapes.

🇬🇧 The Cure "Seventeen Seconds" – 1980

Minimal, haunting and drenched in atmosphere. This album defined the early gothic edge of post-punk. Sparse guitars, icy synths and Robert Smith’s distant vocals create a soundscape both fragile and unsettling. A cornerstone in The Cure’s evolution and a timeless dark classic...

Public Service Broadcasting - Live At Brixton - 2016

Different mushroom display…one piece broke when I was dusting so this cluster is usually on my right speaker. A worthy prompt to get the wood glue out and also fix a wooden lampshade I’ve been avoiding for months.

🇬🇧 New Order "Sat 20 Jun 1981 Funeral Party" – 2012

A rare live document capturing New Order in their raw, formative stage, only months after Joy Division’s end. The sound is stark, minimal, yet already pointing towards their evolving post-punk/electronic fusion. A historic performance etched in urgency and atmosphere...

🇩🇰 Kliché – "Aldrig mere / Militskvinder" – Generic cover — 1980

A bold 7" capturing Kliché’s uncompromising vision. “Aldrig mere” delivers sharp, urgent energy, while “Militskvinder” sets Chairman Mao’s words to cold, minimalist post-punk – a striking fusion of political text and mechanical sound...

Billy Bragg, Help Save The Youth of America (Live and Dubious), 1988 on Elektra

Billy Bragg live six song EP released to encourage US youth to vote in the 1988 presidential election. Includes “Chile, Your Waters Run Red Through Soweto” (written by Bernice Johnson Reagon of Sweet Honey in the Rock) and “There is Power In a Union.”

Remember, when you elect a President, you are electing President for all of us. Please be more careful this time.

My copy—via Slipped Disc at a record fair at Mill No. 5 in Lowell MA—is a US pressing on Elektra which is in great shape but is missing the original custom inner with info on voter registration.

🇩🇰 Kliché "Supertanker" – 1980

A landmark in Danish post-punk and new wave, merging icy minimalism with sharp political and technological commentary. Mechanical rhythms, deadpan vocals and a cold, industrial atmosphere make this debut a timeless statement of artistic rebellion.

Love this album...

🇬🇧 Jaz Coleman "Magna Invocatio" – 2020

A grand symphonic reimagining of Killing Joke’s music, conducted by Coleman himself with the St. Petersburg Philharmonic Orchestra. Majestic, ritualistic and deeply atmospheric – a “Gnostic Mass” that transforms post-punk tracks into orchestral splendour...

WILLIAM S. BURROUGHS
Break Through In Grey Room
2023 U.S. Ltd. Ed. Reissue
Clear vinyl
750 copies pressed

A weird one for last spin of the night.

Originally released in ‘86, a collection of Burroughs field recordings and rants that were part of his cut-up tape experimentation with Gysin and Sommerville.

It’s exactly what you think it is.

LEADBELLY
Leadbelly
Canada compilation reissue

It’s finally raining after a long stretch of brutal heat (thank god I wasn’t here), and it’s much needed.
There’s a lovely, gentle ambience outside, so I’ve got my windows open, and spinning THIS.

Kurt Cobain gave Huddie Ledbetter a remarkable second life some 45 years after his death. I know I myself wouldn’t be as well-schooled on his music without Nitvana’s rendition of “Where Did You Sleep Last Night?” from their legendary MTV Unplugged performance.

This is a killer compilation, with “Death Letter Blues”, “Black Snake Moan”, “Bull Cow”, and “Blind Lemon” on it (to name a few).

There is no better artist to drink Scotch to than Ledbelly.

RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE
The Battle Of Los Angeles
2018 U.S. reissue

As per the power of @derbadian ’s suggestion.

Rage Against The Machine lit my 15 year old soul up when that first album hit.
I was such an angry kid; a child of divorce, lonely, disillusioned. A magnificently raw, teenage nerve.

I still love and respect all three of their studio albums, and still can’t figure out how they pulled it off.
They were a band that used their music as a vehicle for their politics. The politics came FIRST. It was not the other way around. And somehow, they became HUGE with that blueprint. Quite an incredible thing.

They were a greater entity than the sum of their individual parts. Tom Morello’s crazy-ass guitar playing remains criminally underrated.

This will always be my favorite record of theirs.
Slayer after slayer.

LIGHTS OUT!
GUERILLA RADIO!
Turn that shit up!
