Don't give up on Skam because of two poor eps (Wonder Stevie and Bola). Hopefully, Skam will come back around to the quality I know they're capable of. Also, I definitely agree with you about Lily of the Valley. I can't stop listening to this comp. Such hauntingly sublime melodies throughout the disc. I think Lily is even better than Ishcemic Folks, and I like that comp a lot. Now I'm trying to track down the vinyl of Lily. -- S H A D O W D W E L L E R S clever mc-noahdeeakili-jamal amin-shep P S A L M 9 1 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
