CHECK THESE

Simon don't lie (does he ever?) Dripdropdrap is excellent.

(But that font size... It's preternaturally small. I have to whack it up to 200% to make it visible.)

Also: Beyond the Implode. I particularly enjoyed this post on Shaw Taylor's unlikely contribution to Industrial (he also featured in the shlocky but magnificent Richard Burton chiller The Medusa Touch I think) and this one on Coil's Love Secret Domain, which uses the tracks like rhorsach (sp?) blots, triggering skeins of autobiographical associations. (I'm particularly grateful for this post, as I luxuriate in the Coil CDR's the lovely Jon Dale was kind enough to send me).

Sadly it looks like I'm gonna be babied up at that point, which is a shame cos I've never seen 'em live. They're actually meant to be quite good. Which LPs did Dale send you Mark?
