The best Butthole Surfers album.

Ladies and Gentlemen.
After a long, some would say appropriate, period of consideration, the rock band known as future of the left have decided to raise funds to record and release
their new/next/imminent/best/worst/career-defining/career-destroying album via pledgemusic. I KNOW, RIGHT? It seems almost inappropriate to ask, especially
for us, but it turns out that the people of the internet are far more likely to invest in the birth and possibility of a thing rather than a finished product
so, y?know, here we are. We?ve had enough of labels (and they, to be fair (1), have probably had enough of us) and not being independently wealthy our
tiny pockets have their limits ? hell, you know, first world economy / goods and services and all that shit. Think of it as a fancy pre-order with added,
unnecessary bits if you like ? or don?t.
A summary of our activities follows with key words in CAPITALS for NO GOOD REASON BUT AFFECTATION.
Here?s the STORY. It?s pretty much WRITTEN (although we?re writing more). The writing has gone VERY WELL INDEED (2). We?re recording it in MONNOW VALLEY
studios in Monmouth where both ?Curses? and ?Travels with Myself with Another? were recorded (we?ve booked in some days this summer, whether you bastards
give us the money or not ? we?ll finance the thing with loans if we must). We?re recording it with our friend CHARLIE FRANCIS. He?s really good, like a
wizard who supports Tottenham (3). We?ll probably mix it IN HIS HOUSE most likely DRUNK or PRETENDING TO BE IN CASE SOMEBODY IS MAKING A DOCUMENTARY ABOUT
THE WHOLE THING. Which, they may be (4).
A new EP is to be released on July 1st 2013 on our own label, PRESCRIPTIONS, and will be called ?LOVE SONGS FOR OUR HUSBANDS?. All pledgers/starters/funderers
will get a download of this (on the release date. note ? not a hardcopy ? that?ll be available seperately). The track listing is thus ? 1. the male gaze
2. perpetual motives 3. the bisexuality of distance 4. an idiot?s idea of Ireland. It is about TEN MINUTES in length. It is GOOD. If you don?t like it
you can FUCK OFF.
Got it? July 1st. Available on 7 inch, (very limited) cd, download and torrents sites worldwide. Free yardarm with the first 100 copies (5). Pre-order available
from
www.prescriptionsmusic.com
Anyway, the album thing. General release is October 14th but all ?pledgers? (such a fruitily-named demographic) will receive digital downloads of the record
ahead of release, basically, as soon as it?s ready. We hope, of course, to tour, but we?re not asking for money for that. At this stage the amount we?re
asking for simply covers the costs of recording and manufacturing the thing ? (although Julia and I need £90 to shave a cat. Really. We don?t have room
for cat shaving in our household budget). We?re recording MANY songs some of which will be SHIT (so we won?t trouble anyone with them) and some of which
will be AESTHETICALLY UNSUITED to the album. These songs, generally the weirder, skankier and sprawling ones, will be compiled onto a separate EP, which
will be titled ?Human Death?. It?ll be ? different, but probably won?t sound like Daft Punk or The Libertines.
In addition to the album we?re going to trouble you with a (limited) screen printed poster from our friends at Aesthetic Apparatus (designers of the ?travels
with myself and another? cover and screen printers to the stars). Also, there?ll be a similarly limited t-shirt designed by our newly found friend and
illustrator extraordinaire, Krent Able. which?ll be suitable to wear to a Maths exam or satanic orgy ? we crave flexibility from our garments and are sure
you do too.
Note ? if you want your records spoiled with people?s writing we will sign anything we can upon request, although if some items are sent from other locations
that may prove impossible. Feel free to message us if the precise package you require isn?t offered.

(5) nb. yardarm may be invisible.

play you (if I have the time).

I heard one song on the radio and it sounds like every other pop song on the radio right now.
This is the first time I've ever heard Daft Punk. First thought was that i wish it had more guitars and it's not really my thing. Second though was that one of the songs sounded like Steely Dan and that my wife would like that one song.

In the studio mixing RAM….

i think it is a nice album and pretty incredible, and it shows talent as an artist to change so drastically when your fans demand the same, all while pulling it off. i feel in ten years from now, that will be one of two album from daft punk that people can remember.
It's been 16 years since Homework and 12 years since Discovery and people remember those pretty damn well. Doubting Random Access Memories will bump either of those two out of the top spots.
Future of the Left already hit their Pledgemusic goal in one day!

Random Access Memories is completely boring.
The new QOTSA does very little for me.
The new Disclosure, however, has been getting a lot of play the past couple days.

This immediately came to mind when I heard him.
Just swap it for 'Any song'.
His quotes are better and more memorable than any song he's ever written.

Liam is one of the luckiest people ever… … he's gotten so far on so little…two good albums of rather pedestrian recycled rock with some great moments… due to fortuitous timing, attitude (fawned or not), the English press, and an actually talented older brother he became a "rock'n'roll star"..
I have to say Liam's performing pose is beyond boring..I picture him now at the Patriot Center with his arms crossed glaring at the audience pretty much the entire time (disclaimer: I went because I got a free ticket)… but Noel did write some great tunes and they went awfully far on that… one only needs to compare to the infinitely more talented Ride- from whom Oasis eventually "poached" Andy Bell- to realize life ain't fair…. I'll take Going Blank Again over anything Oasis ever put out.
Nowhere is also better than anything Oasis ever put out.
