Text of the page (random words):
ss is a hymn to the blunted ar kane generation stumbling bass euphoric loops and dreamlike sighs which should end up on an advert for perfume or something robert wyatt s wino moan is coupled with slowed down frog croaks and time stretched mud pool bubbles a lover s whispers turns into a furious curse in your wax clogged ear paranoid repetition and pop culture signifiers are all warped and tested measured up for sparkle and then giving a good seeing to through a lo fi hiss to keep things sub underground it might the image of beatle paul that s dredging this up but i ve heard tell of some unreleased post fab four efforts from macca that effortlessly bridge the gap between improv chops and popstar solo album weirdness so until the erect thumbed scouse needs another couple of million i think we can count joincey as the 5 th one and this wasteroid as an apple platter that didn t yeah yeah yeah yeah total vermin 80 jointhee and thee acrid lactations toe c43 album of real songs 7 on each side words by joincey arrangements by susan and me joincey takes most of the lead vocals while the ac lac team kicks up a variety of ruckuses with dictaphone horns voices percussion strings keys recorded in the home on the south side of glasgow on successive joincey visits in december 12 and january 13 i believe that this is the first total vermin release to include a lyric sheet posset joe sindre bjerga look a like joincey adds a set of spiritualist hymns over the fruity babble created by backing band the acrid lactations like when chuck berry hires the local pub band to back him joincey in full pompadour effect sets off the acrid lactations and lets them play what they want as long as it s chugga chugga backing by now all readers must be familiar with the no audience underground no chord trick open the brain and let the magic drip from fingers and tonsils tin can rattle full throated mouth jazz semi improv rustling dictaphone tape strangle and pre jazz hornings but such a slippery beast as this makes reference points a challenge saying that there is an element of folk reinvention going on here i doubt joincey s words saw the inside of cecil sharp house but there is little to separate this from such backwoods yodel and holla you d expect on the folkways label jim nollman s duets with coyotes being the obvious place to start total vermin 81 posset the glistening fist c25 civil servant journalist dandy joe murray opens his journal and licks his nib the pages are hidden from your view by his majestic frame he reaches for the absinthe but finding the bottle empty politely excuses himself listening for the creak that will mark his return from the cellar you hasten to glimpse that diary in search of some clue to the soul of this most enigmatic behemoth only to find that every page is filled with strange hieroglyphs you reach for another volume but find the same as you frantically flick through the pages you feel a cold breeze rush through the thin cotton of your shirt quickly you turn round big joe is standing at the door watching you and laughing luckily for we asemics and lesser intellects joe also keeps a record of his affairs in the international language of magnetic tape here is the glimpse at those pages you so desired every detail of his thoughts dreams and essential functions expressed through the play and pause of his enchanted dictaphones total vermin 82 poormouth s t c33 this is the first solo album by ben knight of towering breaker helhesten marvo men etc taking the form of two extended binaural narratives an orchestra of household items backs the first tale sighs conspiratorial whispers playground chants multiple voices all the author s version the story of the second a singular kitchen sink realist tale heard through the refracting indeterminacy of aeroplanes posset joe a totally unclassifiable sing song stream of consciousness dream like encounter with poormouth blimey this is truly odd not so much the sounds but the intention what makes a man sit down with a scrap of paper and what i think is a young one s quote a few bits and pieces and crackle on in this jackanory style not sure if i can figure that one but i m so glad that the poormouth did at times i m taken back to the no audience underground classic lake by richard youngs simon wickham smith lake s otherness calmness space and reconstruction of everyday sounds fits perfectly with poormouth s world of tin foil scrunch and estuary speech the bell solo on side one tinkles like a thousand silver blades of grass on a frosty morning and divides the non story ramble delivered in naive bursts of chatter the subtle swish of traffic creates a wash of hush to stabilise the spoken patterns side two is a vocal piece that gently layers speech in a delightfully mitten fingered way the slight speech slips on the th ph sounds adds a gorgeous richness depth and character to the insect themed ramble like the way alvin lucier s i am sitting in a room would be nothing without the stutter a genius fadeout to traffic noise spare cough and water gulp is a breather held for just a second too long and then the babble starts up again the everyday psychedelic doesn t need phasers wah wah just two or three texts read aloud together creating a dense web of muuh brilliant non vermin a couple of bits hitherto unlisted winebox18 solo guitar volume ii 3 x c21 15 jon has sold out of these before i even listed my copies whoops i don t have many so act fast if you ve missed out thus far postage might be a bit pricy but it is a beautiful thing and worth the outlay jc s text below second volume of six sides of loosely defined solo guitar recordings following the first one from 2009 this one featuring fliss horrocks bridget hayden core of the coalman plum slate harappian night recordings and irma vep styles run from heavy sliding blues through phased cyclical picking to late night raga and scattered otherworldly tweaking boxed edition of 74 copies started out as a door a good one too the cassettes contained within come wrapped in fabric to prevent them shunting out the ends of the box in transit feel free to discard this on arrival singing knives no cat acrid lactations aura mirror come fickle anachronous law and manner c44 3 new studio sitting room album from the ac lac duo each piece recorded in two takes using stereo microphone attached to turntable pro dubbed singing knives got posset joe to write their description reprinted below it s two jammy cosmonauts that make up las lactancias acre susan fitzpatrick stuart arnot direct from jazzhole central glasgow making the swinging singing scene for a few years this couple of mcwitches claypoles engage in the bad touch just for you and so it begins hot pipes get browned off with mouth gas like the world s tootingest brass band for starters leading directly into a capuchin heimlich situation with soft brown dates shooting slowly out twin glossy throats the groans of a rust encrusted seal playing a brine swollen concertina are coupled with blustery backwards blowing raising a fair old foamy sea spiral the world of field recordings shouldn t go without mention as parts of this 17 mins in on side one sound like a secret taping of the art ensemble of chicago clocking off changing into baggy pants and dialling out for pizza hot potato daddio side two takes the recording deeper underground with a bassier offering of cloven coven dealings accompanied by dappy percussion from the sort of teapot you find in cheap seaside b bs then it all gets more knotted and complex a very male noise usually reserved for the solitary cubicle squirts around a more repetitive pattern of pre speech mouthings that sound strangely like kraftwerk without electricity bringing on a series of wet sips and slappings the jazz blowing continues like an overheated dog all raspy panting and jowly shudder stand well clear or get flecked with meaty spit but the lactations are not just about the sounds man any joker can make armpit farts and crack eggy noise guffs it s about the placement the balance and the context no wild skeeve or fasss or vooom is introduced without careful planning and consideration if you ever watched planet of the apes the 70 s original not the re make doofus you ll be prepared for this parallel universe sound of ram s horns discordant organs burning charcoal and lashings of mouth cavity reverb but who is responsible for bursting this particular acrid boil all over you why it s the singing knives records company of course vibrating with pleasure they are launching this particular disc to you with accuracy and love posted by total vermin at 18 56 no comments sunday 21 october 2012 new releases october 2012 hello again a big new batch is finally complete these are available for 2 50 each plus postage please email any orders to smearcampaign hotmail com total vermin 63 vampire blues epistemological relativism and the missionary s position c42 vampire blues is a duo of jons collin whole voyald serfs and marshall hunter gracchus roman nose on guitar and harmonium respectively one side of the cassette is electric the other acoustic each side is aglow with a transcendental fervour that augurs a non theistic or at least non partisan sublimation take me to the water joe posset has reviewed some of these releases in his 2012 review i recommend that you check it out on his myspace blog here side one is heavy on the underwater guitar wrestling with a drowning harmonium big splashy chords give way to spiralled soloing all salty and churning side two wrenches the asthmatic harmonium to the fore coughing and hawking with keys slapping nosily like some thick tongued county cousin for such a simple set up two blokes two instruments strings vs leathery lungs it somehow manages to sound like a hell s angel incredible string band soundclash where things get seriously shroomy in fact there s a whooshing rush across both sides of the tape like some oceanic loved up house track circa 1998 where s the vicks geezer total vermin 64 bolide jazz gulag c53 early cuts 2008 from brighton beatnik collective solzhenitsyn never told us about the forced consumption of the byg catalogue so perhaps bolide were sent elsewhere wherever they were or were not jazz asylum this is a heavy and wild document of the stay rugged and raggedy jams for fans of the devilish glint in the horn player s eye total vermin 65 core of the coalman stain c59 jorge boehringer american in europe has carved this monolith of a cassette this conundrum from materials unknown a loop possibly wrought from his viola morphs imperceptibly a mere nodding of one s head induces psycho acoustic paranoia the resultant catatonic sway exacerbates the
