Jim Guthrie - Now, More Than Ever - from Roygbiv
This album was a solid album but it wasn't anything special. It is definetly my kind of thing as it is folk/folk rock type music but it didn't really do anything for me. Jim Guthrie is sort of the generic singer/songwriter guy. There were a few good moments on the album like the opening track, "Problem With Solutions" and the song "Time is a Force" but nothing really blew me away.

The Crazy World of Arthur Brown -Arthur Brown
gunnels11: Ever heard of Arthur Brown?
crappyguitar18: Sh*t yeah.
crappyguitar18: I have his debut, Crazy World of Arthur Brown. It's one of my favorite 60s albums.
Look at the cover. Look at it. A blind man could tell that this is a psychedelic rock album. And lord is it.
From the very beginning, the album is a crazy trip. "Prelude- Nightmare" opens up with an eerie melody, soon to be overrun by drums and keyboarRAB until the the main theme bursts through. It's fast, wild, keyboard driven, and just a blast to listen to. The lyrics depict a nightmare but is performed with gusto and energy.
The lyrics are the center of attention in many of the songs. There is a central theme of fire, hell, magic, and of course surrealism. The lyrics range from poetic to narrative to nonsensical, but it all adRAB to and reflects the music behind it.
The real highlight of the album for me is "Fire". Zany and energetic, Mr. Brown gets to show off his vocal range to one of the most bizarre-yet-catchy songs ever. Apparently, it was #2 on the Top 40 at one point, making this one of the strangest songs to ever grace the list.
All in all this album is a blast to listen to. Get it if you haven't already.
Thanks #9 for an ace trade.

Dear Anteater,
I downloaded your album, listened to it, reviewed it in one of my threaRAB, and had no idea who the hell gave me the album.
I was reading, and all of a sudden I realized that it was you who gave me the album.
So here it is.

Described to me only as “some really noisy psychedelic from two Japanese people”, I really didn’t know too much what to expect. Christine 23 Onna is a two person instrumental band formed in 1993 by Yamazaki “Maso” Takushi and Toda Fusao. This album could be described as 60’s space psychedelic, with the effects giving you both a retro and otherworldly feel. even with it's abundance of "freak out" moments and tracks, it hardly ever seems to get too jarring or grating, it's that laid back kind of psychedelic that you can have on in the background and at the same time take notice when it kicks in.
Fantastico: Well the first thing I notice with this song is the corabination of grounded distorted riffing and experimental sounRABcapes. It really hooks you into a groove that emulates a 60’s psychedelic bash.
Acid Now: Oh man, HERE’s where sh*t gets crazy. Everything hits you at once and the way that everything gets quiet and loud again melts your face in the minute and a half it goes on.
The Last Hunter: Things calm down in this next song and picks up the 60s vibe again. Has a good amount in common with the first song, but that’s not a bad thing, the fuzzy guitar and ethereal effects stick around.
Acid Eater: A freak out track, as was Acid Now, just this time everything’s a lot more defined and less wonky. While I’m not too big on freakout tracks, this is pretty good in how it’s not too all over the place but can still keep you interested.
Planet Unknown: This has a bit of a different vibe from the previous songs. The fuzz from the guitars isn’t here and is switched up for a more arabient feel. A real way to relax from the onslaught of psychedelic music you just went through.
Space Mondo Topless: Lovingly borrowing the name of this song from one of the works of sexploitation film maker Russ Meyer, this definitely has a carefree, fun in the sun kind of feel. The fuzz is back and in full force but not overbearing
Love Galactic: At this point it seems that the album has blasted off into space. Some more freaking out with a cool bleep-bloop sounding effect that plays off of the drums and other effects.
Top of Spot: The computer overlord feel of the last song gives in to a more subdued and frankly groovy song. You can’t help but move with the guitar lines and mood
Wild Private: The rhythm guitar takes a decidedly different turn and gives into a clean funk guitar sound, but there’s still another one in fuzz mode. This song has more of a drive than some of the previous ones.
Erotopia (The Climax): The last track enRAB on a freak note and culminates in the building up of a lot into a blistering white noise that gives in to a fade out.
So in closing, this is a pretty fun romp of effects and trippiness, but a few parts of this album feel like they’d be forgotten immediately after listen. It also gets a bit samey after a couple of songs and doesn’t have too much surprise going for it. Even so, if you’re a fan of psychedelic music and are looking for something to chill out AND freak out to, I recommend this little gem.
Best Tracks: Fantastico, Planet Unknown, Space Mondo Topless, Love Galactic
Worst Tracks: Acid Now, Erotopia (The Climax)
Final Verdict: 6/10-Slightly above average.

I got Hear Nothing, See Nothing, Say Nothing by Discharge from Terrible Lizard.
Politically charged lyrics, gritty production, fighting riRAB... this album certainly is very punk-y. Most of the tracks were less than 2 minutes, as to be expected. I liked the incorporation of soundclips at a part of the album. Technically I can't say there's anything about this album I don't like, but it didn't do much for me. I'm more of a fan of pseudo-punk or hardcore groups, meself. 6.5/10

As I say, I think we should go with the favourite album artwork theme again. If anyone has any objections to that or, indeed, a better idea, just say so!

Hymies Basement are definitely one of those albums you have to acclimate to, and I'll admit on first listen I wasn't the biggest fan either. What I like most about this album is it sounRAB like a perpetual jam session/inside joke between Yoni and Fog. 21st Century Pop Song is probably my favorite, although Ben and Joey, America Won, I Am A Sewer At Heart, and even Pretty Colors, are all great tracks. It’s quite a stunning album once you get past how unconventional the music is.
So, congratulations, if you could take Hymies Basement then you could probably enjoy anything from the anticon crew.
I'll have a review up for that Paulson album sometime tomorrow.
