Comment: this bunch of 15 tracks is dedicated to a Brisbane, Australian indie juggernauts The Go-Betweens, a conditional Australian counterpart to The Smiths which probably foretold such groups as Belle and Sebastian, The Concretes. From artsy, keyboards-driven progressions and chamber pop alike expressions to jangly guitar pop to serene indie pop to powerful reverberations by obsessively exploring noise and shoegaze numbers. There are represented such artists as Sinking, Corrections, Leisure Walks, Undone, Waving Blue, Poëtka, Vida Eterna, Soft Layers, Teething Veils, The Vividels, All Sparks Burn Out, Echodrone, Electric LO FI Seresta, Flowers Must Die, and Mevius. This great tribute is issued by The Blog That Celebrates Itself Records. And the compilation is dedicated to Grant McLennan (1958-2006), a founder member of the combo.

Comment: I can remember for those days approximately 20 years ago when I had been listening to Britpop. I would like to prefer to buy the tapes and actually these mediums used to be more dear than the compact discs today as well. Inside the bunch of guitar music there were represented a couple of albums of trip-hop to create a special feeling for certain moments. I did have Portishead's Dummy (1994), and Tricks Pre-Millenium Tension (1996). Actually something like that I experienced by listening to this 4-track record under Dusted Wax Kingdom. At least I could rehash the aforementioned memories. More detailedly, oneiric female singing by Marquee Gibb, smoky scratches, orchestrated panning, dusty reed organs. And all of that is adeptly backed up by fatty, almost tectonic beats. And the most important aspect to be added – the artist (Mr. Moods, and Marquee Gibb) obviously succeeded to get synergistic essence from it. I think today it could be tagged as art/sophisti-pop. Yeah, I love it.

Comment: this bunch of 22 tracks provides a good overview about the intention and music of such a cutting-edge imprint as cassette-only Bob Chaos (based on Muncie, Indiana, USA) due to a music label from the Netherlands, WM Recordings. Actually it was released in 2004, at the time home recording activities and the New Weird movement started appear in a dizzy way. Actually by such artists as Latent Chaos, Modern Exteriors, The Suadetones, Atomic Butterfly, MCRB, Disposable Air Sickness Band, Sonic Clams, Band-O-Fun, and Soul Celtics the listener can find out many those characteristics which started appear two decades later. Knee-deep psychedelia, at times being deliberately buffoonish and provoking by subverting the so-called established pop narratives. For instance, there is up a slippery version of Goldfinger by The Suadestones, there is also a song being obviously aroused by the Broadway aesthetics as a main sign of Western Capitalism and decadence. At times there are up themes being obsessive in their absurdity and madness being imbued with faint odours coming from the glistening aesthetic of Joe Meek, kitchen sink, space age music, radiophonic art, exploitation genres, and free jazz. I have always adored such sort of bands who dared to provide absurdity as a refreshing colour to the embodiment of music. And the most important thing is that we all are the apes in spite of bearing clothes and by using smart talk. By the way, our closer relatives used to do it as well. In a word, it is fun to partake in that decorous, spiky madness. Would you cut off your dick for art?
