Fresh Roto rounds.
Also, Jrmy, how was Sleep? Did they completely melt your face into a slow, headbanging void of epic CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC Doomz?
Sleep was pretty damn awesome. It's funny, I forgot that Al handled all of the vox, so I was totally put off balance by that. And his cadence was really... weird. But the riffs were massive, and the whole front of the club was one seething mass of mosh (I avoided that part). It looked like Al was putting his 4001 through three Orange stacks, while Matt was going through thee Marshalls (he had one head that looked distinctly Matamp-ish, but it blew midway through the third song, and was replaced with a Marshall post-haste). Needless to say, when they broke into the opening riff of Dragonaut midway through the set, the whole place went apeshit. It was quite a time.
Yus, Al's live vocals are, uh, unique.
Anyway, stoked to hear you enjoyed it. Those riffs need to be heard in person.

BUT. i can NOT fucking remember who it was. i have 3 or 4 HUGE albums of cd's i don't want to go through, and then mebbe not find it.
the album i'm thinking about was mostly straight ahead, less inventive Aphex style IDM. but there was one song where there was a laugh, then a guy saying, "oooopsy dawwwwsy oopsy DAISY" at different speeds. ring a bell? anybody know what the fuck i'm looking for?
CHIEFY. I'M LOOKING AT YOU.
Hmm, that one's not ringing a bell. But then again, I didn't get a lot of the one-off guys, I mostly stuck to the big 'uns, like Aphex, Autechre, Mu-ziq, Plaid, FSOL, etc.
fucking fuck fuck fuck FUCK. this is going to bug me forever. DAMNIT.

sounds like stuff you don't use, you should probably get rid of it? I don't really understand having things that stay in a place that is inconvenient to access
