SEAWEED
Spanaway
1995 U.S. pressing

I just got done looking at this year’s BLACK FRIDAY RSD list, and it’s one of the most awful and ghastly release lists in RSD history.

Other than Ween’s SHINOLA Vol. 2 and the colored vinyl anniversary of THIS (which I don’t need at all because of this original), it is the most barren wasteland of awful and unnecessary shit maybe ever.

It’s usually pretty bad, but this year they’ve truly outdone themselves.

This album is a monster, as was Seaweed in general. I’ve been a rabid fan of theirs since I was 13, and this album needed a reissue in the worst way, so kudos for THAT at least.

This is maybe one of my most listened to albums of the #90s , and I have unreal memories attached to it, and to Seaweed in general.
One scorcher after another here.
Incredible guitars by Werner and Neal, and incredible vocals by Aaron Stauffer.

THE DB’S
Repercussion
1982 UK pressing

A landmark album of the early #80s #janglepop sound gets last spin of the night.

Repercussion is the more polished second album from what I feel is one of the most underrated bands ever.

Twelve catchy and wonderfully melodic songs; six each written by Chris Stamey and Peter Holsapple, a bit of a Lennon/McCartney of #1980s #powerpop .

Shimmering guitars, great harmonies… it’s a great album that critics loved, but the general public pretty much ignored. It wasn’t successful at all, and shortly after, Chris Stamey was gone and off to a solo career.

There was a 2024 remaster of this done, which had a first EVER U.S. pressing, but in all honestly, I didn’t care for it. My ears are just too used to the original master, but I’m glad it gave people a chance to discover this great album.

“Neverland” is total perfection.

🇬🇧 The Cure "Concert" – 1984

The Cure's first live album and recorded during the 1984 World Top Tour, it presents the band with Andy Anderson on drums, Phil Thornalley on bass, Porl Thompson on guitar, Tolhurst on keyboards and Robert Smith on vocals and guitar that sit at the centre of a performance and feels raw, physical and considerably heavier than the studio recordings...

🇬🇧 Killing Joke "Killing Joke" – 1980

Essentially captured live in the studio, the album strips the music down to bass, drums, guitar, vocals and electronics, then pushes every element towards maximum tension. Killing Joke produced the record themselves. It reached No. 39 in the UK Albums Chart...

Originally appearing on "Sons and Fascination", the song was also issued as this four-track 12-inch. The extended 7:23 version stretches the groove into something darker and more hypnotic, while the B-side pairs two live recordings from the Hammersmith Odeon show of 25 September 1981...

🇬🇧 Goldfrapp "Train" – 2003

Released as the first single from Black Cherry, it reached No. 23 in the UK Singles Chart. It marked a clear step away from the delicate, cabaret-inflected world of "Felt Mountain" towards the sleeker electro-pop and dance-oriented sound that would become central to Goldfrapp’s identity...

🇺🇸 Boy Harsher "Burn It Down" – 2022

Originally developed from an old demo, the song was brought back to life specifically for David Gordon Green’s "Halloween Ends". Its nocturnal electronic textures proved a natural fit for the film, while the accompanying EP expanded the track into four versions, including a rework and two instrumentals...
