JohnDuncan:I just heard this (youtube link) on Radcliffe and Maconie. Intriguing.
Sounds like the lovechild of Andy Bell and Tracy Chapman. But in a good way.

Not their best, but easily surpasses the derivative rubbish they're churning out these days.

Not a huge Slayer fan but I heard the new one, World Painted Blood, is supposed to be a return to form. Have you heard it Chris?

Not yet. My brother is one of these people that will buy any album a fave band of his churns out, so he bought 'Christ Illusion' and will most certainly buy 'W.P.B' too. I'll have a listen when I see him next and will probably be just as dissappointed.
The problem is (IMO of course) that Slayer just aren't particularly heavy any more. If you want speed and technicality, there are any number of death metal bands out there ('The Faceless' are my current favourites), and bands like Meshuggah have shown just how heavy you can go without playing at 1000 miles an hour.
Sadly Slayer and certain other bands of that ilk are like the Royal Family. An anachronism remembered for their deeds of years gone by.

Steve Reich and 'Triple Quartets' with the Kronos Quartet. Very relaxing, but you need peace and quiet to really appreciate the intricasy of the playing. In effect the music is numerous scales, up and down, round and round and I love the way it just washes over you. Then the master Philip Glass, with the Bournemouth Symphony orchestra, which gives huge power and intensity to the music. The Heroes Symphony is more recognisably David Bowie than the Low Symphony. As introduction to Reich and Glass' work they are excellent.

Terry Riley 'In C'. First performed in 1964 and way ahead of its time. Woodwind, horns and glockenspeil (?), which sounds like a primary school 'orchestra' warming up for their first 'performance' and producing a 'noise' only their mothers would like. Well I'm one of the mothers........

Quick review of The Big Pink please Dave. Saw they were supporting Muse the other night but I didn't make it in on time due to the secc "All bands must be off stage by 10:45" rule. Hate the place. Must have been about 30 times, only gigs I have really rated there have been Bob Dylan, Rolling Stones and Muse who were all awesome in their own way!
