A collection of various reviews (mostly obscure music), collages, mail art, drawings, poems. My own, little slice of paradise if you will.

Shy Rights Movement - only the lost can find their way & Timo - I must be right (seven inches)
I got another package, courtesy of Mark Ritchie
(Hiroshima Yeah! Zine).I transferred
both seven inches on my hardrive so I can listen to them on my portable mp3
player. That`s when my problems started, my record player is toast. I managed
to do the transfer but the tempo is too slow (can`t make it faster).Which makes this a difficult listen. I might
as well make it short and sweet (my apologies Mark).`Shy Rights Movedments` (Mark`s band) has two
songs of emotionally brooding indie acoustic folk (good stuff). Recalls at
times, in no particular order: The Cure, Johnny Cash and dare I say a stripped
down, less gothic version of Sisters of Mercy. `Timo`s`next.
There`s three
songs in there, with basic instrumentations: guitar, bass and drums. The music
is dark (schizophrenic at times), somber indie pop with punk undertones thrown
in for good measure. The recording is low-fi, you can sense a feeling of delicate sensibility \ intimacy,
more introspective than in your face. I urge you to contact Mark before this is
sold out, yes it`s that damn good.
