Monday bloody Monday, this morning, so far, this are a pleasing black with colourful spots and we’ve opened six or seven e.mails from artists and responded to art they wanted to submit (even though we have no Cultivate open calls or anything that requires artists to send anything in at the moment, beside maybe coverage here via this page). We just listened to some dreadfully generic indie-emo-hairspray pop from Texas that the band’s record company (do bands still have record companies?) insisted was the “best thing you will ever hear”, listened to maybe eight piece of music submitted via e.mail so far today (didn’t hear anything that interesting beside the new Fred Frith album).

It follows on from ‘Moonstruck’, released February 2014, which became the fastest sell-out in Too Pure Singles Club history, selling out on pre-orders a month before release. The Lucid Dream’s second album is scheduled for February 2015 release.
Sunday. Some blogging about blogs, some links to a couple of blogs writing about a performance artist we rather like and her performance at Spill, and band we just may have mentioned via the pages of Organ now and again over the last quarter of a century….
The Arresting Sound of Cardiacs “Cardiacs are a British band from Surbiton. They were active from the late 1970s through 2008 — a lengthy career that can be divided into at least two distinct phases — and in that time they produced several difficult-to-describe…..”
