Designer1 Posted June 26, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted June 26, 2019 Enjoying this a lot at the moment. Kind of experimental post-punk(ish) A Laughing Death in Meatspace by Tropical **** Storm 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bickster Posted June 26, 2019 Moderator Share Posted June 26, 2019 Freshly cleaned and sounding great, not a pop or crackle to be heard. It still has the original inner sleeve and no barcode on the cover so it's a first pressing. It's worth less than a tenner having said that I remember being so excited when it came out and it came out to luke warm reviews but I always liked it. It ranks fourth in my list of Bunnymen Albums.

Seat68 Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Echo and the Bunnymen are a band I am a fan of that I didn't think I was a fan of. I have a few albums, Porcupine amongst them as well as seeing them a few times and loving them. Inadvertently the first band I ever saw was a spin off. The Sex Gods were the Ramones support band. Every thought of EATB is a very good thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every thought of EATB is a very good thought. I have lost count of the number of times I’ve seen the Bunnymen, it’s somewhere around the hundred mark, maybe over maybe under. The Sex Gods were a short lived distraction for Pete de Freitas when he was losing the plot and the bands roadies, I still bump into Andy Eastwood from time to time, he’s a good bloke. I even did some work for Will Sergeant once when he was doing his Glide ambient project, I got a credit on the CD I think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bickster Posted June 27, 2019 Moderator Share Posted June 27, 2019 Suns out, it's hot, crank up the bass.

bickster Posted July 2, 2019 Moderator Share Posted July 2, 2019 I already owned their previous record but I heard this when it came out a few months back and thought it a bit of a departure and kind of put it to one side Then @theboyangelmentioned it to me a few weeks ago and I've given it a few more listens. I need to buy it now, I think it'll be in the end of year pile no doubt. You want a reference point, well its very Radiohead but not in a bad way EDIT: This record should be talked about more than it is. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
