Subject: England good music....hmmmm

I am not replying to THE argument.....but why do people keep saying the music
scene is so good in England!!! Fair enough, there are some good bands, but I
can asure you, it is the worst it has been for ages. Check out the lastest
releases every week.....I can guarantee the majority of these will be releases
comprising of:

4 or 5 blokes wearing duffle coats/cagoules
Retro sound
99pence coloured vinyl (big wow)
2*CD release
Unimaginative sound/effects/song/cover art/live sound

I understand that some people like this kind of music and the supply/demand
factor that is involved. However, I feel that there are far more interesting
bands coming from the `underground` US scene.  Don`t get me wrong....I do buy
British, but its getting harder to find decent bands....
Give me current lofi avarnt-garde US/Spanish/Australian bands or even modern
composers any day. In fact I would rather listen to the music people produce
on this list with their 4-tracks than the majority of the CDs that are
released here in the UK each week.

We do have good second hand record shops and CD fairs though.

Does anyone have a State of Grace discog?

I know they have a load of EPs out, of which
some are compiled onto a CD called Pacific Motion.
Is this still available?

As for sound comparisons, they are sort of One Dove
meets the Cocteau Twins, soundwise.

Subject: cd recommendation

After listening to Pale Saints slow buildings, and knowing State 
of Grace's sound, people on the list might want to definetly check 
out the Catchers album mute.  
It's just an opinion though.   But really good stuff..

Re:  implementing a free-text search for the archives

Hold on Erik!

The Avalyn archives can be searched efficiently simply by using your
preferred search engine!  I've been quite successful using Alta Vista,
but I'm sure many will get the job done...

Here's how:  Simply enter the desired keyword along with "avalyn",
and you're done!   Eg:  "Jamboreebop Avalyn"  (without quotes)
If you know the keyword in question occurs frequently within the
digests, adjust the date/month/year parameter in the search dialog
box (under "Advanced Search" w/Alta Vista) to constrain the search
for only the dates you suspect the desired info was discussed...

That's it!  Hope I'm not boring everyone, but a few people on this
list asked for the info, so...

Best Wishes!
Gary

i have to agree, the `ENGLISH` (sic) MUSIC SCENE IS REALLY CRAP.
we have REALLY annoying crap twee bands. and i am so sick of fake
indi, and OarseIS should just curl up and die in a corner, 

I AM REALLY LOSING ALL RESPECT FOR ANYTHING THAT ISNT ON WARP
RECORDS OR ELECTRONIC  BUT NOT DANCE.
