Freaky Trigger
Read post

Diamanda Galas reviews a bunch of singles
Read post

Diamanda Galas reviews a bunch of singles – a million times more entertaining than the notion of D.G. reviewing a bunch of singles suggests. I’d seen Galas doing the Invisible Jukebox thing in The Wire and while entertaining she was very […]

The Internet Museum of Flexi / Cardboard / Oddity Records: metal records, paper records, make-your-own records…..this is beautiful. In our MP3-driven times a little full-on FETISHISM is always welcome. (via Scrubbles).[…]
