Last week's show, this week's plan.

Here is the 'podcast'/mp3 of last week's show. It starts with an argument about just who's show it is now, and a track from Hollan. Special guest DJ Ross Brighton plays a lot of black metal, and some good songs as well. Technology fails us and I have to cover for it with something for our dolphin listeners. We get a caller and don't know what to do. Ross, Timmy, and I read some things that we wrote, and insist that we are worse than the other two. Duran Duran finish us off.

This week, we'll be re-educating my friend Danny who thinks that Health are a good example of avant garde noise rock, and not shitty tribal metal with occasional feedback. To be covered will be the fact that being noisy and loud doesn't make it 'noise'; that to be avant garde one must actually try something new; and that Health heard a bad experimental track being made, (while someone else was playing Slayer next door) and thought that that was the intended outcome of the experiment. Sometimes experiments go horribly wrong, and wen they do, it's a poor idea to base one's sound on that.

So there will be Dead C, Harry Pussy, Babar, and much more. Naturally there will be a few other things in there too, like Bowie, Burroughs, and less rocky noise.

Thanks to everyone who listened last night, it was a pretty good show. Especially thanks to Kevin for calling in, it was exciting and terrifying all at once.

There will be an MP3 of the show available on here soon, and a new poster will also be up.

Fun times.

Welcome again, to the atrocity exhibition. We are the curators and hosts of the show, and we hope to bend your mind.

Shock at the disregard for standard musical form.
Be subverted by the spoken word.
Revile the innovation in the radio show format.

Most of all, listen to the sounds of what could be.
