Huh, the opener was the weakest for me - thought the album "picked up" a lot more after it was done.
It'll all need more listening though.

Of course - you're still a kid yourself!

Stupid age.

It's the rules, and the truth, I don't make 'em

I think I finally decided that I prefer Angherr Shisspa to the debut, but they're both two of my favorite non-Magma Zeuhl albums.  I have Nivraym too (downloaded) and it's not quite as good but I need to give it more listens.  Can't wait to get Viva Koenji! which is apparently one of their best.  I have an improv/Angherr Shisspa DVD too, forget the name but it was recently released even though I got it earlier than the release date at NEARfest.

Makes me want to hear either VDGG or Zappa though.

Yes, "28th parallel" was indeed fantastic.

Another what due in March?

Congratulations, mate!

I have the three albums other than the debut and it's harder than hell choosing a favorite. I usually go with Nivraym (it does take some more listens), but it could easily go in the direction of any of them. I need to really get that debut. That DVD would be sweet! Hopefully I'll be able to go to NEARfest this year and by some miracle Koenji will play again.

What state are you at?  I guess you'll be getting your drivers license soon (that is, if you don't have it already or if you don't wait a long time to like I did), so if you're nearby, go.

I'm in the extreme northern part of Kentucky--about 5 minutes across the Ohio river from Cincinnati. Thus, it would be a 10 or 11 hour drive.

But, David (birdwithteeth) and I have been planning a road trip... so we might go to Philadelphia and use NEARfest as a good added bonus. Not sure yet, we still have to figure everything out.
