U CAN UNLEARN GUITAR No Strings (Yelpco/Sunship Records/Little Mafia Records/Breathmint) $10 "Best of" CD by U Can Unlearn Guitar a.k.a. Andrew Marshall Alper. Acoustic (mostly) "folk" songs of absurdist views and wiseguy humor mixed with tracks of noise, loops, etc. You get 21 cuts from nine albums released since '96.

THE UNKNOWN CASES & PHEW (Funfundvierzig; Germany) CD EP $9 Japanese singer Phew did a kinda classic self-titled album in 1981 with Hoger Czukay, Jaki Liebezeit, and Conny Plank. Twenty years later, this short disc (17:19) finds her working with a current German "club" band called the Unknown Cases. The music is dreamy post-Krautrock techno/trance, with Phew's vocal interjections and statements weaving in and out. The first mix of "Mishiho" has a nice Yoko-dub-techno thang goin' on.

VARIOUS ARTISTS Black To Comm #25 fanzine + Imants Krumins Golden Jubilee Commemorative CD $15 CD with Simply Saucer, The Battleship Ethel with David Nelson Byers, The Coachmen, Ruby & The Rednecks. There are two unreleased 1974 live tracks by Simply Saucer ("Clearly Invisible" and "Ring-a-Ling Oh My"), four things by J.D. King's current incarnation of the Coachmen, two songs by Ruby & the Rednecks from their 2002 reunion at CBGB, a lengthy bit of free-rock sprawl from the Battleship Ethel with David Nelson Byers, and a bonus-track radio ad for Von LMO at Max's Kansas City. The zine is 164 pages, published late 2003. Chris Stigliano's long-running zine dedicated to obscuro 70s/60s rock, pre-80s fanzines, 50s TV culture, etc. He keeps his "anarcho-capitalist"/right-wing political blather to a minimum this time. What you get in this issue is 70s rock writer Scott Fischer's recollections of recording noise with the Screamin' Mee-Mees in '72/'73; the outside areas of 70s NY rock (Von LMO, Ruby & the Rednecks, journalist Fred Kirby, Max's booker Peter Crowley, Dictators, no wave, etc.); interview with comix artist J.D. King; gig listing and photos of Simply Saucer; a long letter from Lester Bangs to Miriam Linna; 70s fanzine stuff; lots of reviews of 60s garage, 70s punk, Krautrock, free jazz, and even some modern improv/free-rock stuff.

VARIOUS ARTISTS Cottage Industrial Volume 2 (Humbug; Norway) CDR $8 With Pal Asle Petterson, the Cherry Point, United Bible Studies featuring Vinny Dermondy and Colleen, NOL, Edward Ruchalski, Anders Gjerde, Shifts, Peter Wright, Ivar Grydeland & Oyvind Torvund, Murmansk, Agitated Radio Pilot, Uton, and the Magickal Folk of the Faraway Tree.

VARIOUS ARTISTS The Gaiety Records Story (Pacemaker; Canada) $12 Canadian garage-rockers from the 1960s. The Checkerlads' five cuts are cool Mersey-influenced pop tunes played in a fairly tough straight-ahead style, with moments that also flash on Byrds/Dylan. The white-suited, bleach-blond White Knights seem like lounge goons giving the new moptop thing a whirl. With a name change to Tomorrow's Keepsake, their music became more, um, "psychedelic." Fuzzy guitar and California harmonies lead them to the inevitable conclusion that "our love is so groovy!" Which then leads to the more improbable "Eat Your Hotdog Boy," as they name-check their favorite fatty foods. The Plague do four snarling, slightly druggy tunes that nicely combine early psychedelic urges with real fuzz-punk stomp. Their version of "High Flyin' Bird" makes the West Coast acid connection clear. After changing their name to Lexington Avenue, they made the jump into "serious" late-60s rock, although the results sound closer to the Monkees than Jefferson Airplane. NRG do a Bee Gees-imitation pop tune, and then turn it up for a sweet toke of fuzz. Solid Reputation contribute two mild pop-psych tunes.

VARIOUS ARTISTS Kick Off the Jams (Captain Trip Records; Japan) $12 Captain Trip catalog: "Live album recorded in Korea/Japan independent label Festival 2001. Including 19 tracks by 5 Korean groups (Kopchangjeongol, Oh! Brothers, Eunhee's Noul, My Aunt Mary, Cocore) and 2 Japanese groups (Mama Guitar, Marble Sheep). All unreleased tracks. Special poster cover. Japan only release."

VARIOUS ARTISTS Love, Peace & Poetry: Asian Psychedelic Music (Q.D.K. Media; Germany) $14 Solid collection of 60s and 70s psychedelia from Asia and the Middle East. Best of all are the tracks by Turkish heavies Mogollar, Erkin Koray, Baris Manco, and 3 Hürel. Also of drop quality: "Simla Beat Theme" by the Fentones, from India; a wild anonymous rocker from Cambodia; and good for the gigglin' comedown is a fuzzy cover of "26 Miles" by the Quest (Singapore). Plus cool stuff by Teddy Robin & the Playboys (Hong Kong), San Ul Lim (Korea), Justin Heathcliff (Japan), the Mops (Japan), the Confusions (India), Jung Hyun & the Men (Korea), and Yuya Uchida & the Flowers (Japan) covering Jefferson Airplane's "Greasy Heart."

VARIOUS ARTISTS Love, Peace & Poetry: Latin American Psychedelic Music (Q.D.K. Media; Germany) $14 18 tracks of super-rare Latin-American psych, 1967-1972. Featuring these artists: Almendra (Argentina), Laghonia (Peru), Traffic Sound (Peru), Kaleidoscope (Mexico), We All Together (Peru), Los Gatos (Argentina), Kissing Spell (Chile), Los Mac's (Chile), Los Vidrios Quebrados (Chile), Som Imaginario (Brazil), Ladies W.C.

VARIOUS ARTISTS Psychosis from the Thirteenth Dimension: Sixteen Eccentric Heavy Psych Songs from 1967-1973 (Sound Stories) $12 The title kinda says it all, huh? Except you might want to replace "eccentric" with "dumb" for quite a bit of this. But it's "good" dumb! Fun! My faves: George Romanos' Greek-language "Life Is a Dream," with intro lifted from "Eight Miles High" and a wild-ass guitar solo; the haunted-house organ-groovin' "In a Castle" by Crazy Elephant (the Kasenetz-Katz bubblegum group?);  Carolyn Hester's "Rise Like a Phoenix," Fricso-style folk-rock with lots of fuzzed-out guitar; the apocalyptic jazz-rock of Osmosis ("Of War and Peace)"; ridiculous heavy version of "California Dreamin'" by Calliope; Phil Osophy's (ha-ha) fuzzy instrumental version of Jimi's "Voodoo Child"; and the Queens Nectarine Machine's silly, overly arranged "Mysterious Martha" ("she's only 23"). Also includes tracks by Surprize, Savage Grace ("All Along the Watchtower"), Sugar Creek, Ecology, the Yankee Dollar, the Nickel Bag, Freak Scene, Snow, and Uge.

VARIOUS ARTISTS Rare Surf Volume 6: The Capitol Masters 2 (ATM Records; Germany) $14 This hodge-podge of "surf era rarities, hot rod music, and Brian Wilson productions" features 33 tracks from the Capitol Records vault. Hottest are the Brian Wilson productions: four songs by Sharon Marie, the brilliant "Guess I'm Dumb" by future country-pop star Glen Campbell, and two from the Survivors. There are also some non-Brian Beach Boys-related items: two tunes by Hot Rod Rog (a.k.a. Roger Christian, DJ and sometime lyricist for the Beach Boys) and four by Shutdown Douglas (sax player Steve Douglas who played with Duane Eddy before doing sessions with Phil Spector and Brian Wilson). Susan Lynne's two tracks get nice Brian-like productions from songwriter Artie Kornfeld. Three of the best tracks here aren't really surf-style "hot rod music" at all: Johnny Bond's 1960 hit of "Hot Rod Lincoln," rockabilly legend Johnny Burnette doing "Sweet Suzie," and the Four Preps' 1957 recording of "26 Miles (to Santa Catalina)." Not to mention "Black Denim Trousers" and "Chicken," two novelty-style mid-50s tracks produced by Lieber and Stoller (featuring 70s TV game-show host Bert Convy as one of the three Cheers!). There are also instrumentals by Davie Allan & The Arrows and the Hollywood Vines (produced by Nick Venet); hot-rod vocal stuff by the Super Stocks and the Storytellers (Steve Barri and Carol Connors); etc.

VARIOUS ARTISTS The Rebirth of Fool Volume 2 (Dual Plover; Australia) $12 Noise, damaged pop, ravaged techno, cut'n'paste craziness, phone calls, found sounds, and other fugged-up stuff by these artistes: ViVi, Melt Banana, Funky Terrorist, Damian Gooley, New Waver, Sweden, Stacey Longbottom, Sister Gwen McKay, Spasmodics, Kitchen Poofter, Etahan Walls, SA3, Golden Device, Jobs Daughters, Delire, Mute Freak, Bradbury, Simon Abulafia, M.O., Spanky, Toydeath, Meat Paste, Vocabularinist, the Shit, and Burner.

VARIOUS ARTISTS Red Snerts (Gulcher Records) $11 Reissue of 1981 Gulcher Records LP compilation of Indiana punk and new wave. Most of the bands fall roughly into two categories. The first is post-Ramones punk: Dale Lawrence's Gizmos ("The Midwest Can Be Allright"), the Panics ("Drugs Are for Thugs"), the Zero Boys ("New Generation"), the Jetsons, the Defekts, and Post Raisin Band. The other "category" is art-damage new wave, mostly of the post-Devo sort: Mr. Science, A. Xax, Dow Jones & the Industrials (kinda punk too), Last Four (4) Digits, and Amoebas In Chaos. The Dancing Cigarettes fit in there too, but you can hear a lot more going on with them: Canterbury prog, free jazz, Captain Beefheart. On the other extreme, teenage Phil Hundley does an inspired 30-second garage-a-billy tune called "30 Second Affair." The duo of bay-root offers up an effective, no-bullshit take on English-inspired post-punk. These guys came from the "scene" in smalltown Vincennes, Indiana that exported the Lazy Cowgirls dudes to L.A. For this recording, future Cowgirls Pat Todd and Allen Clark were the rhythm section; vocalist Pat played bass, with Allen on drums. It's the first recording by both, and Slippy Town fans might want to note that Allen was also a founding member of Crawlspace. Finally, there's Freddy & the Fruitloops doing a dopey ska tune that may or may not be a "joke."

VARIOUS ARTISTS Simply Good Taste: The Sounds of Slippy Town (Gulcher Records) $11 Like a lot of things I like best in life, Slippy Town (the label) came about by accident. I had put together a bunch of cassette-only releases by Crawlspace in 1999, using the name Slippy Sound. When I bought a CD recorder the next year, I started doing the same with this new format, but using outsidetheanthill as the label name. After a few more of these, I released a Crawlspace CDR called Birds Of The Southern Regions using the Slippy Town name. Soon after, Tony "Fritz" Rettman asked if I'd be into releasing a CDR by Big Whiskey, the New Jersey improv group he had just joined with brother Don Rettman and Dave Bryson. I almost wrote back to tell him that Slippy Town was just another outlet for Crawlspace, not really a label. Instead, I said yeah. Almost immediately, I thought that Bruce Cole would probably let me release the cassette from 1973 of his duo, the legendary Screamin' Mee-Mees, jammin' with rock writer Scott Fischer. Bruce said yes, and I figured why not keep doing this! By the end of 2002, I had released 20 limited-edition CDRs, mostly as a result of people approaching me. "Accidents" keep it happening! Slippy Town has also released three CDRs featuring English improv outsider Phil Todd (Ashtray Navigations): Jarvis/Joincey/Todd, Blackthorne Stick, and since this Gulcher comp was finished, To Suckle The Pups. There was also early ('92) weirdness by English drone master Neil Campbell and erstwhile partner Stewart Walden; a great disc by Italian no-wave/noise gals Allun; early recordings from Scottish low-tech electronics dude Ian Middleton (a.k.a. Remora); a live set by Czech prog-punk band Lebedung; a short disc by Joe+N (a.k.a. Joe Tunis, who runs Carbon Records and plays in Pengo out of Rochester, New York); the debut by Swedish living-room psych-distortion "band" Joshua Jugband 5 (really Jakob Olausson doing everything on his 4-track); even earlier sounds by the Screamin' Mees-Mees & Scott Fischer (from '72!); reissues of the two Mee-Mees LPs from the 90s; Bruce Cole doing a kinda fill-in version of the Mee-Mees called Not A Sonata (from 1986); and more stuff by my band Crawlspace. Besides tracks from the various Slippy Town CDRs, this Gulcher comp CD includes a few unreleased things, including a couple groovy surprises. Allun mainwoman Stefania, boyfriend Bruno Dorella, and the rest of OvO contribute a wild slice of primo Italo-no-skronk; Joe+N clangs around for awhile on a new track recorded for the comp; and Crawlspace goes totally infantile on the pre-school rocker "Five." Adding to the timespacewarpage that always smells up Slippy Town real good are a couple unreleased 70s tracks from my personal past: the first take of the Gizmos' "Hey Beat Mon!" (with MX-80's Rich Stim on sax), and a no-fi crack-up of the Yardbirds' "Shapes of Things" done by Brooklyn's infamous O. Rex (Solomon and Jay Gruberger; Gizmos founder Kenne Highland; yours truly sittin' in on drums). Hope you enjoy 'em all as much as I do! Released April 2003.

VARIOUS ARTISTS Snow Robots Volume 1 (Suction Records; Canada) $8 Suction Records catalog: "Snow Robots Volume 1 is a retrospective compilation CD from Canada's premiere source of robot music, Suction Records. Suction Records was founded in early 1997 by likeminded robot music composers Lowfish (Gregory de Rocher), and Solvent (Jason Amm). This CD compiles Suction's out-of-print vinyl releases from 1997 in their entirety, and also features several exclusive goodies, both new and old. Suction Records' first 2 vinyl-only releases from 1997 highlight their 'distortion pedal new wave' beginnings. These tracks by Solvent, Lowfish and David Kristian are now available for the 1st time on CD. Originally brought out of the woodwork by Aphex Twin's Analogue Bubblebath material, the Suction robots joyously indulged in raw, distortion-pedal analog madness. But this was no Rephlex knock-off, for the Suction robots had already built up an impressive resume, with several years of bedroom-studio experience, and well-versed in the early works of Cabaret Voltaire, Human League, and Skinny Puppy. The results are dark and filthy, but with a reckless sense of enthusiasm that will charm. To compliment the chaos, Suction have rounded out Snow Robots Volume 1 with six variations on Suction's patented melodic electro-pop theme: Two pre-suction tracks by Gregory de Rocher -- soothing, melodic and timeless electronica recorded in 1996 under the pseudonym Pest(e); A remix of Solvent by Detroit's mutant techno-pop duo, Adult., who also run the seminal Ersatz Audio label; A remix of Lowfish by Germany's Lali Puna -- moody electronic pop with paranoid female vocals (their debut LP was released on Morr Music / Darla); And a brand new, exclusive track each from Solvent and Lowfish -- two melodic electro tracks that are definitive Suction."

VARIOUS ARTISTS Snow Robots Volume 2 (Suction Records; Canada) $8 Suction Records catalog: "Snow Robots Volume 2 is a retrospective compilation CD from Canada's premiere source of robot music, Suction Records. Suction Records was founded in early 1997 by likeminded robot music composers Lowfish (Gregory de Rocher), and Solvent (Jason Amm). This CD compiles Suction's out-of-print vinyl releases from 1999 in their entirety, and also features several new and exclusive goodies. Suction Records' 3 vinyl-only releases from 1999 chronicle suction's development from lo-fi electro mayhem to the melodic analog electro-pop sound that is now synonymous with Suction. This development was a reaction to changes in the bedroom-electronics scene, which was rapidly being overcrowded by computer geeks who treated music like code -- clicking their mouses furiously while already imagining the e-newsgroup fame that lay ahead. The Suction robots had had enough with all of this 'digital irony'; things just weren't sounding fresh anymore. And so, past masters were pulled from the record crates and re-evaluated with new ears; Depeche Mode, Roedelius, and OMD sounded warmer, and more vital than ever before, and this made a great impression. On Snow Robots Volume  2, you will still hear Suction's affinity for lo-fi weirdness, but you will also discover a noticeable refinement in these crucial robot-composer skills: melody, composition, and synthesis. In 1999, Suction Records sourced the globe for robot-composers whose music demonstrated an affinity for these musical ideals -- and found some: D'Arcangelo, from Rome, who have recorded for Rephlex, Nature and too many others to mention; Pluxus, naive electronic pop from Sweden; Tinfoil Teakettle, who were easy to find as they are in fact a Solvent and Lowfish collaboration; and Manchester's Brioche Kretzaal, a collaborator with UK labels Skam and V/Vm. The same traits were sought from our team of wonderful remixers: The UK's soothing electronica maestros ISAN (Darla, Static Caravan, Morr Muisc...); Rome's videogame-pop duo Mat-101; former Le Car member and current Detroit electro-pop subversive Perspects; and Suction's newest full-time robot, Berlin's Skanfrom, who's debut full-length CD will be released on Suction in 2001. Snow Robots Volume 2 also features a brand new, exclusive preview of Solvent's overseas collaboration with the highly-regarded Austrian vocalist and recording artist, G.D.Luxxe, whose last 12" on Interdimensional Transmissions left Solvent speechless. 'That,' he resolved, 'is the kind of vocalist I've always wanted to work with.' "

VARIOUS ARTISTS Xmas Snertz: Have a Very Gulcher Christmas! (Gulcher Records) $10 Gulcher press release: "Happenin' holiday music from 16 Gulcher artists including Thundertrain's MACH BELL; GIZMOS Kenne Highland (Vatican Sex Kittens), Eddie Flowers (Crawlspace), Ted Niemiec, and Phil Hundley (back for his second helping of Snerts); the MX-80 SOUND Family of Angel Corpus Christi, Rich Stim, and MX-80 themselves; UK Power Pop from the STIFFS, MONSTERPOP, and the AUTOMATICS; Bill McCarter's STALINGRAD SYMPHONY; Ken Kaiser's X-RAY TANGO and, from '78 with Highland, THE KORPS; Bloomington's WALKING RUINS; and from San Francisco everyone's favorite queers, PANSY DIVISION!! Sixteen Holiday Rockers!! Thirteen Previously Unreleased!! Twelve Original Songs!! You'll have a VERY GULCHER CHRISTMAS this year!!" And here's what Slippy Town (Eddie) has to add on the subject: The Crawlspace track, "Christmas Time Is Here Again," is a very loose arrangement based on a little thing from the Beatles' 1967 Fan Club record (I was a member at ages 10 and 11). Original Gizmo Ted Niemiece gives us his first new public recording since 1978. MX-80 does "(I Spent) Christmas With the Devil." The Korps track is an alternate take of "The Blizzard of '78" from their 1978 HELLO WORLD! LP. The Stalingrad Symphony track is a section edited from their epic STRUGGLE CD, with a holiday title that suggests something I've yet to hear (eh?). Released December 2003.

ESTHER VENROOY To Shape Volumes, Repeat (Robo Records; Belgium) $10 Robo Records catalog: "Esther Venrooy resides in a constant snakepit of modular movements and sonic acupuncture. An imaginary, almost filmic world where gameboys morph into howling wherewolves, ravening the shattered bits of saxophone sounds with vague buzzing and popping crackles. Anchored by the subtle use of harmony and dynamism, she opts for processed meditations in maze examples, combining more traditional electro-acoustic composer techniques with frigid, slightly harsher shots of deconstructed digital fuckery. She sure sharps some sonic pencils with swirling layers that are cut up, mangled and dragged into the present. Not your average run of the mill cocktail waitress becomes Hollywood coddle story but pretty goddamn addictive blackened ambience. Bathing in a selfconsciously dense atmosphere, loaded with contrasting metallic chunks of noise, she manipulates the rumbles with rich expression and acute arrangements that develop into a desolate electronic landscape. The balancing cord between audio and visual thundering she aspires towards. Her approach never wears out and diving into the realms of film fragments and striking field recordings, she pursues a journey where the source material is anything but traceable. All that megaton sonic alchemy weighs up and shows this is way more than an angry lady that turned her back on academic audio processing, the kind of sweaty dust that belongs in retirement homes. Next thing you know you are fragmented into a non-executable floorplan. The storm has spent itself."

KURT VILE Constant Hitmaker (Gulcher Records) $11 Gulcher catalog: "'kurt vile is the nom de plume of philadelphian kurt vile (!) whose shimmering home recordings reflect the artists admiration of everything from delta blues to the minimalist agro of suicide, the downer psyche of 39 clocks as well as the skiffle hum of strapping fieldhands. in other words, a real globe trotter. kurt has shared bills--as well as wiped the floor--with the likes of blues control, pink reason, clock cleaner, times new viking, magik markers, to name a few. this is his debut release. lend him your ears.' --tom lax, siltbreeze.

VIOLENT STUDENTS Violent Students (Parts Unknown Records) $11

VOTE ROBOT In Meorm NA (Scratch Recordings; Canada) $11 Vote Robot is two Canadian guys doing low-key electronic stuff that includes plenty of noisy glitchin', klangy grooves, spontaneous melodies, wheezy loops, and blissed-out floatscape. The 12 short tracks give the disc an odd, rock-like feel. Released 2001.
