Beyond the Wall of Sleep 03-17-10

An hour of gothic and deathrock music including Christian Death, Clan of Xymox, The Damned, The Cramps and more. The first two weeks this was up it actually linked to the incorrect file. This error has been fixed. Mix yourself a snakebite and black, turn up the volume and turn down the lights; we'll wake the dead and dance tonight.

Ride is one of my favorite bands (Nowhere rarely leaves my car) and it's nice to hear a band cover them eloquently and with fidelity. Check out this video from Dulce Sky, performing the "Vapour Trail" b-side "Unfamiliar":

Upload Issues

So, a problem I've encountered over the last month is an inexplicable inability to upload the podcast properly to archive.org, who graciously host each episode. Uploading from the KISU station computer seems to work fine while my work and home computers upload only blank space. The punchline of all this is that the podcasts will probably have to be posted on Sundays rather than Thursdays. I don't know if that actually effects anyone, but I thought I'd mention it.


In the meantime, here's one of my favorite songs, "Mercy Seat" by Ultra Vivid Scene:

New Jatun out March 9

Streaming tracks from Jatun's new album Blanket of Ash at Other Electricities. Harder edged than Ulrich Schnauss or M83 with crashing waves of electronic distortion and reverb. The album will be out next Tuesday.
