It is safe to say that an album I found located in Japan is going to come faster than the one I ordered from an artist on bandcamp. How's that possible? I guess one a being a store and the other is just not fulfilling orders.

I was thinking about Mr Bungle today. here's something to remedy that notion www.youtube.com/watch?v=mwRn...

The new Sally Wainwright series suspiciously sounds like
the band "The Dole Dossers" i joined that formed in hebden in the '00s. they played 1 Battle of the Bands, had no drummer, nor rhythm. i joined as an ad libber.

we folded/ fell out after playing the trades and 2 of us became poets.

finally made the jump to start a "band" to slow the words down, to say i still shout within reason, after me @ricardoautobahn.co.uk hooked up from a me tweeting about how interesting the cuban boys attended gigs in my hometown before X became a bin fire

revisited this comic earlier this year and my god, the whole comic is a treat for the eyes. This panel of the rock concert Scarecrow and Judge Death go to is so good.

Halifax is unique as its interesting to outsiders. lot of history follows the place but is currently awash with endless roadworks making it quite inaccesible. still if you dig archeiture and quirky pubs (i'm usually in those ones) its a fun day out.

Dated this very month in 1988, the very first issue of the splendidly idiosyncratic Deadline, with its cover featuring its soon-to-be-breakout-star Tank Girl by Jamie Hewlett.
