Pardon my ignorance, but I've tried figuring out what MFM-related magic is (sans coming across any porographic sites ), but I've not figured it out. Also, I'll have to check this album out.
- Jonny Nash - Point of Entry [my god, I can't get enough of the MFM-related magic
MFM is Music From Memory, my favorite esoteric label. Specializes in forgotten ambient/baelric/synth music (from around the world).MFM-related magic
I've been waiting patiently for Romy's debut album and I think I listened to it 846 times today. Also discovered the xx from this. Not sure how I missed them.
It's a really good albumI got this physical on Friday and I love it!!!
RBF ALERT
Just discovered this band Sprain today and their new album The Lamb As Effigy or Three Hundred And Fifty XOXOXOS For A Spark Union With My Darling Divine (which dropped on Sept 1st). The eight tracks on this album span a 96-minute run time, with half of the tracks being over 10 minutes (and two tracks approaching 25 minutes). This album is experimental, it's noise rock, post-hardcore,.poat-punk, and slowcore? I'm not sure if I've listed every deserving genre tag (I'm still recovering from and running this album through my mind..). What a first listen and initial experience! It's terrifying and gorgeous, complicated and intelligent, unpleasant and jaw-dropping. This surely won't be for everyone (honestly, this is probably for hardly anyone, lol), but it definitely scratched at itch for me and checked many boxes for me.
FFO: the only two I can think of right right now are Swans and Squid, but I feel there are a few more.
Glad you enjoyed it! And, yes, definitely hear some Xiu Xiu and Scott Walker here.Just finished in full for the first time this morning. Absolutely in my top50 right now.
To amend your recommendation list, I would cross out Squid and instead:
RIYL: Swans, Glenn Branca, Scott Walker, D*****ers, This Heat, Xiu Xiu
Glad to see my two recs hitting well for you
- Sprain - The Lamb as Effigy [the major knock I have against this is that some of the spoken word segments can become a bit too indulgent. Other than that, it brings the house down. N-A-S-T-Y. Claustrophobic, uncomfortable, cataclysmic, totalistic, and bludgeoning]
- Dying Fetus - Make Them Beg for Death [@musicjunkiegreg coming in the clutch with a solid death metal rec. Thanks again ]
Nation of Language, Explosions in the Sky, Mitski, Vagabon, and probably some others I’m forgetting

I've got the new Alan Palomo (Neon Indian) on the radar today too.
