Not dipped into it for a bit now either (so many other releases lately), looking forward to getting back to it again. And let's not all forget 'Video Club' either.

Not sure I'd say the tracks on this are samey, but they are all very distinctive.

And a over to the east as well please. Just my luck, there was no Skam when I used to live oop North.

I was just after the CD, but it came in stock at my local indie shop today so it's all cool.

Damn it, why can I not find this in Norwich? And why did I only just remember that it was already out? Want this album badly now.

Another ace record. I got that on your recommendation.

I love the two 'Tower' albums. Some of the most atmospheric music I've ever heard.

Same here with the last of your two posts, kaini. 'Dead Air' is indeed great (thanks for the recommendation ages ago). And as for GB, I will buy everything they release mindlessly and without checking my bank balance first, but I hope they ease off with these revised editions. Starting to seem just a tiny bit cynical.

Holy hell! Intense I'm no fan of Bjork but that was awesome (with or without the fire). And props to her for clearly appreciating Mark Bell and Plaid as much as she does.

Interesting, thanks for that. I assumed the title was something to do with the VHS age but I didn't know what. I've hardly checked out the samples. Just don't think I need to, this album seems like a no-brainer. And someone mentioned Neil Scriven as being VHS Head a while back, which makes more sense than BoC or Ae to me. Then again, maybe it's just some bloke noone's ever heard of. EDIT: Only just realised playbynumbers had posted in this thread. Cool.

So remind me again why he's not been arsed to release another LFO record with Warp...?

Before my life was boxed up during my Uni limbo, I actually did this, dispensing with my usual OCD artist alphabetisation. Didn't look at all impressive though, as there's no back cover on the original CDRs to show through the spine. Just plain old blank plastic. even one level of elitism further then: "it's not how it looks. it's how it makes me feel. it makes me feel complete." What it comes down to is, I knew they were there.

i'd say mark bell could comfortably retire off his bjork $$$ alone. What I was thinking kaini, and good on him too. and maybe cuddle aftar? (a reference to this, which is as old as the internet) in case it's lost on you. [/labours point] Thanks for reminding me of how internet-unsavvy I am .

sirch, I just don't think I was ready for 'Frequencies' at the time. I was wanting an album full of 'LFO' variations, which to their credit it wasn't. But it's definitely grown in stature for me as I've gotten older and broadened my horizons a bit from when I was in my early 20s. A great album, I just couldn't see it at then, although at the same time it did open my eyes to new things as well.

I remember the disappointment when 'We Are Back' came out, and 'Frequencies' for that matter. I felt underwhelmed by it at the time, but I think that's because 'LFO' was soooo fucking good. And the remix, with that ridiculously deep sub-bass. Awesome. Grown to love the whole shebang as time's gone on though. EDIT: Never seen much LFO WATMM love in my time here (probably missed it, being a n00b). There should be a sub-forum for LFO just out of respect.

Ghost Box is one of those labels that seems to have that effect.

Those silk-screened shirts were the best GB have put out, but I have a pathological-cum-lazy dislike of white t-shirts (i.e. I don't have many), just too much of a balache on washday. However, I would still love one of those blue Belbury Poly numbers.

For once the forum search worked, was about to post this. Where have I been for the past week (rhetorical question)? Pre-ordered the vinyl, naturally. Not going to bother with the t-shirts although they do look rather nice.

I don't imagine he's any need to money-wise, but I'd love to see Mark Bell come back with another LFO release. For me it could only ever be released on Warp though, I've got nostalgic memories of LFO. And Sheath just shades Advance for me.

Pale Saints, 'Half Life, Remembered'.

Solar Bears, 'Inner Sunshine'.

Frankie Goes To Hollywood, 'Relax' (16 minute Sex Mix). I have no shame.
