Subject: Mojave 3 gig TODAY !??
A friend just told me that he had seen a gig ad in a London (UK)
paper today where it said that:
-------------------------------
Monday - March 16th
Soundtrack of Our Lives (SWE)
+ opening act:
MOJAVE 3
--------------------------------
Has anyone heard this - can anyone check it? Anyone in London
on the list?
Mojave 3 + SOOL is pretty mindblowing - they are so far apart
I wonder what the audience will be there for?

Well, I got my copy from Parasol, but i see it at Best Buy quiet frequently.
As far as I know, the only rare Lilys are some of the 7"s. I think all the
CDs are still easily obtained, including the EPs.
Love the Lilys.

Hello Justin,
Sorry for the English but I'm a Belgian and I only speak French and Dutch.
I was a great fan of Adorable but this group has SPLIT !!!
I've seen them live in 1994 and it was beautiful, the songs are ambient but
with a lot of energy and variation. The singer and the guitarist give the
show more electric/noisy.
They are comparable to CELL (if you know)/
They have made 2 album (latest in 1995) but I don't remember more because
I've not listened to them since I read that they' ve split.
For more INFOS, you can mail me or take a look to my site :
http://www.fucam.ac.be/~leclercq
(click on the link : "Liens musicaux" and then go down and look "POP/AMBIENT"
See you soon ...

Hello everyone! Mellow list lately, eh?
I wanted to know if these two bands were any good: Blueshift Signal and
Colfax Abbey, and maybe someone could give me a description of what they
sound like...just curious.
Thanks a lot.

Subject: Colfax Abbey Re: a couple of bands
I uploaded some MP3s to Erik recently of Colfax Abbey. Mind you, I don't
advocate music piracy so the sampling rate was 56kbps/22kHz (cassette
quality). Get in touch with Erik for more details. If you like it, go
buy the album!
Colfax Abbey's first album Drop is excellent particularly if you're
looking for Slowey-esque sounds. The last mini-album/EP Penetrate,
however, greatly contrasts the debut release. I'd recommend it if you
like drone akin to Bowery Electric or Labradford.
I'm unaware if the band is still together. I haven't seen releases other
than what I own.

Is the EP on the same label as the other? I'd be interested in hearing
what they did after the album...

n_penetrate_ is nothing like _drop_. it's a 45-minute ambient record. 4
songs. 45 boring minutes. mbefoire anyone jumps on me, i love ambient
wankery. _antarctica_ was one of my fav releases last year. but this
shit is just plain medicore. (wow, waan't that redundant.)
sorry about the spelling errors/ typos. god, i hate 2400 baud. can't
wait to get back to my t1 on sunday. :)

Yep, same label ... (c) 1996 TRG/Prospective Records. It shouldn't be
too difficult to find. Actually, I ordered Penetrate through CDNow
(don't shoot me!).

Uh, unless you sent tapes to two people then you were talking about me.
