Really great stuff????????????!!!! Like what? It's really easy to dismiss these albums after a decade, but when they came out they were the sound of the times. When I mentioned Cleopatra and Invisible, those were only two labels of that era with which I would also group Reconstriction and Fifth Column. In fact, I get them all confused and I don't remember what came out on what labels, but some good stuff from back then was- Vampire Rodents Mentallo and the Fixer Not Breathing Pigface Dead Voices on Air Front Line Assembly Foetus (didn't Cleo put out a few from Jim?) Leatherstrip Diatribe 16 Volt (the first album at least) Sister Machine Gun (ditto) I'm sure there's many others, like the ones who put out just one album and disappeared who I'll never remember off the top of my head.

Pigface is one of the suckiest projects I've ever heard. I think Diatribe & 16 Volt only had one decent song each. Not Breathing is the only artist that has done some interesting work. I don't think any of the FLA stuff that I like appeared on those labels --- "Albers, Brian" <BAlbers@premiereradio.com> wrote:

Actually, the live album "Boil" and the "Null"/"Void" dbl-EP came out on Cleopatra in the US.

Well... sort of. "Boil" wasn't released anywhere previously, and as for "Null"/"Void"...

This isn't completely correct. Columbia released "Null" in limited numbers, but "Void" was never available until the Cleopatra release. Not that it really changes the fact that 99% of what Cleopatra has released is crap. :) Greg :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Greg Clow ::: greg@stainedproductions.com ::::::::: concert & event promotions ::: http://www.stainedproductions.com :::::: electronic music radio & reviews ::: http://www.feedbackmonitor.com ::: electronic/experimental record label ::: http://www.pieheadrecords.com ::::::::: 158 Close Ave. 2nd Floor ::: Toronto, Ontario M6K 2V5 ::: Canada --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
