Unreleased stuff
There’s almost an hour of unreleased stuff on the bandcamp site, including two of the earliest pre-Urthona demos left off I REFUTE IT THUS (one the companion track to Urthona Cannot be Destroyed) and a 30 minute + live rehearsal tape of a 2010 show. Go reeling like a light-headed infant this way.

Bandcamp
Our Bandcamp site is now open here where all the Urthona records can be streamed or downloaded (as high quality aiff files). Our CDs are for sale there too.

The Long Stone
The Long Stone at Mottistone (‘Moot Stone’), Isle of Wight. The stone(s) are the remains of a neolithic long barrow, and have been on our meg hit-list for yonks.

Teleportation Machine from the Fly
Apparently the Style Council were in one chamber and the Wurzels were in the other, and this was the horrible result…

Brownsea Island
Family scouting camp a few weeks ago on the extraordinary oasis of Brownsea Island, Poole Harbour, Dorset. Red squirrels, huge wood ants, swarms of goddam mossies yes. Glow worms no. Pesky glow worms!

Gee Vaucher
In case ya missed it, Gee Vaucher’s mindblowing CRASS ART AND OTHER PRE POSTMODERNIST MONSTERS 1961 – 1997 was reissued last month (on Gee Vaucher and Penny Rimbaud’s Exitstencil Press). And don’t those old Crass covers still look totally great – and (old fart alert) remind you how much yer missing with artwork/mythology-free downloads. Do you want to check it out here – course you fucking do!
-
Lido
Plymouth Hoe’s magic Art Deco Lido ‘Tinside’ showed up here last month so Janner props to Darren Hayman’s new Lido CD (on Clay Pipe Music who put out the very great Tyneham House CD last year) which has a track called Tinside. You can hear the whole thing here. Even better bag yourself the artfully packaged CD. Remember kids, it’s open air or saltwater else it’s nothing at all!

the Devil’s Quoits
The reconstruction of the Devil’s Quoits, a stone circle and henge at Stanton Harcourt, Oxfordshire. Improbably located between a landfill site, a lake formed by gravel extraction pit and a recycling centre (the rural idyll of middle England or wot?), the site is pretty damn vibey. Can’t remember ever seeing so many damselfies in one place either. Makes ya think prehistoric reconstructions are the way forward, yeah?
