Very Cool ! First i've heard of both !


The Unameables is quality Faaip. Worth tracking down on vinyl as it has a gorgeous textured gatefold sleeve with a truly enormous Magma symbol inside. Expect the usual printed on receipt paper reissue cd from Musea



The music is not gorgeous though - not bad, but not essential either.

Well, it's pretty good, but The Unnamables  is not really a match for full-blown Magma works such as .M.D.K., Wurdah Ïtah, K.A or Köhntarkösz. Or do you think it is?

Well, like I said: it ain't bad.

I think the connection issues are on your side... the pages load fast enough over here.

On another note, I just listened to The Unnamables again... I think I would give it 3 or 3,5 stars... I really like the last track, "Undia", though. I think that, on this album, it's the one most true to the Magma esthetic.

Great news ! The one Le*Silo album i have is heaven to my ears, So... Im excited !

Also, Live At Doors Arrived ! But i had to take my brother and his friends Trick Or Treating (got to sport my homemade Magma Medallion !)  So i didn't open it right away. Got home a few hours later, Opened her up, gazed at the beautiful package and all the pretty picture for a few minutes, Then Popped her in the machine, And watched/Listened brilliance in action ! Great stuff !

I don't know Nil or Nyl, but found this:

ARTIST:Nil (France - 2)
TITLE:Quarante Jours Sur Le Sina
MEDIA:CD
RELEASE COUNTRY:France
RELEASE DATE:2003
OTHER INFORMATION:Nil Is A French Progressive Rock Group Standing Among The Most Promising Ones Of The Current Scene. Its Music Can Remind So Well Of That Of The Scandinavian School That One Would Believe White Willow Is Playing Sometimes ! When You Pay Attention To It, Yo

Its obviously two different french bands. This one's defenatly not the one you're all looking for.

To my ears, this nightmarish french '76 album might as well be Zeuhl. But more important, its fantastic!



This is the info I found:

Horrific Child - L'étrange Monsieur Whinster - The Horrific Child album is, to me at least, the jewel embedded in the forehead of the golden idol that is the NWW List.  Part rock album, part experimental album, part imaginary horror soundtrack, L'étrange Monsieur Whinster is a psychedelic pop audio show, flowing naturally from one surprising sequence to the next.  Horrific Child was the creation of one Jean-Pierre Massiera, also the composer behind the Les Maledictus Sound project from 1968.  Les Maledictus Sound were an inventive, high-brow concoction of Easy Tempo-style instrumental mod big band music, with heavy brass, plucky bass and fuzzbeat guitar.  Horrific Child is certainly the logical stylistic next step from that record, evidence of the composer's having survived several years beyond the psychedelic era.  A section from side 2 of L'étrange Monsieur Whinster was released in 1999 as a bonus track on the CD reissue of the Les Maledictus Sound album.  Originally released on the Eurodisc label in 1976. WFMU's beware of the blog

Les Maledictus Sound was the creature of Jean-Pierre Massiera, the inventor of French progressive-rock. Les Maledictus Sound (Canusa, 1968 - Mucho Gusto, 2000) is a tour de force of stylitic metamorphoses

Massiera also composed Visitors (1974), another psychedelic nightmare that featured a supergroup of French veterans.

Massiera then moved to Canada and recorded another experimental work, L'Etrange Monsieur Whinster (1976), credited to Horrific Child, which includes four suites: two poems (Baudelaire and Lautreamont), a tribal "danse macabre" and a piece of musique concrete. Scaruffi.com

This is the very good current symphonic band Nil (which is linked to another French band named Thork).
 
The other Nyl was known as Nyl and for some reason, the reissue states is as being NIL, which complicates things.
And not to be mistaken with a Russian neo-prg band named Nyl.
The French Nyl released their s/y album in 1976 in Urus Records.
Here is what GEPR says:
 
"On Richard Pinhas' Urus label and featuring Magma's Janik Top in a supporting role, but it doesn't really live up to the high expectations. At least not what I heard of it, which didn't sound particularly progressive at all and went in one ear and straight out the other. -- Mike Ohman "
"Jannick Top from Magma plays on this one. More psychedelic than progressive. -- Jean-François Cousin"

I had all but given up looking for this jewel when this happened:

All irregularities will be handled by the forces controlling each dimension. Transuranic heavy elements may not be used where there is life. Medium atomic weights are available: Gold, Lead, Copper, Jet, Diamond, Radium, Sapphire, Silver, and Steel. Sapphire and Steel have been assigned.

Transpired that a Scandanavian folk-singer/artist friend of mine had a copy locked away in a 4D Hello Kitty vault somewhere inside his futuristic bachelor pad deep in the Norwegian fjords.

Fabulous! For fans of Brast Burn, NWW, Code III, Komintern, and exotica

The image “http://www.soundohm.com/jp/brastburn1.JPG” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.

Been looking for this on vinyl for an eternity. Another jewel from the Nurse With Wound list. Japanese psyche trance exotica

The above is from 1975. From the same Shamanistic Priests in 1985:

 

Karuna Khyal. Yet to hear this but I understand it is another underground jewel
