Blacking out vs English Professors

Next couple of posts I've got new additions to musical acts I've already posted.

This may or may not be a good thing. I like to imagine it is.

But this is my collection and I tend to quite enjoy my purchases.

Blackouts - Lost Soul's Club (1985)

So if you've been following along at home, you may vaguely remember a post from a while back of  the first two singles by Blackouts. If not you can head on over to that and have a look. I'll wait....


So here's their 1985 swan song on Wax Trax! Half the band would end up joining Ministry around this time and Mr. Al Jourgenson himself took the producer's chair for this release.

I don't know. I'm a bit distracted. The tv is on and I'm barely paying attention to my own typing.

Just listen to it. I was a bit taken aback when I first threw it on the turntable. I would have absolutely hated it in 1985, but I would have been completely off base in my assessment.

So suck it, past me! You pompous music snobby little shit.

I Feel So Weird (1996)

This is the Black Watch. This is what happens when an English Professor forms an indie pop band.

My wife likes them.  They have a lot of releases. She has some of the cds and I'll probably pick up more of it as I come across it. Make of that as you wish.
