www.youtube.com/watch?v=3s4m... Was this slept on? Sound system pressure. Mimi from Low Accapella. Wobble bass injections. 15 years old or something but if it came out today it would still sound like something from tomorrow.

Time to break out this again though I really have no interest in the tournament this time. Ask me again in three weeks when I’m staying up til 3am blowing a Trump branded vuvuzela m.youtube.com/watch?v=m6I8...

Mine and Craig’s farewell speech after our last ever Hood gig. Supporting Mogwai in Dijon I think!

Wrote a thing for Normans about this excellent album …….

*Restocks* Found a few previously presumed sold out things recently. The ‘lakes and light’ 7” has gone but there’s a handful of the others up on our Bandcamp page. thedecliningwinter.bandcamp.com/merch

My new album 'Red Fire In The Open' is out today on Sound in Silence Records soundinsilencerecords.bandcamp.com/album/red-fi... From the press release: Red Fire In The Open is Death-Static’s second full-length album, following last year’s debut Time Is Ignorance. More drone-based than his (1/3)

Enjoyed listening to this again….

The Hood recording from the Empty Bottle in Chicago is here if anyone is interested archive.org/details/ajc0...

anewlinerelated.bandcamp.com/album/ill-ta... Just FYI. 5 brand new longish tracks of textured reflection that possibly sound like someone attempting to rip Deepchord off but doing the entire recording session on a very breezy Lancastrian moor. 1 RT = 1 Prayer. Jah Bless.

We’re making some replica 2005 style Hood shirts. Go here if you want one hoodband.bandcamp.com/merch/hood-b...

newnorthwales.bandcamp.com/album/too-lo... Hey you! Yeah you. Do you like impossibly fragile, bleak, melancholy acoustic meanderings by a couple of the OGs of the scene. Nicola and Chris formerly of Empress have new songs.

Myself, Chris and Richard sat upstairs in their parent’s loft painting the labels and then hand writing the titles on these 7”s. Every second track had to have a different song title. The first record I was ever on. This copy currently lives in Osaka.

The packaging and contents of this new issue of @thedecliningwinter.bsky.social’s: Recordings of Weird Air are really a thing of beauty:

Very limited lathe cut edition of our ‘recordings of weird air‘ album. Out yesterday already gone. Might make some more one day,

Heads up for anyone who likes that kind of thing.

From a year ago: Wrote about records from The Declining Winter, Charlie Kaplan, The Smashing Times, and Market:

Ross Parfitt & Tirath Singh Nirmala - Stones and Fences Vol 1 - some prime murk n gloam from these two Hood-alums (please clap) that kicks up a bit of dust but remains fairly pleasant throughout. Reminds me of Stephan Micus in spots.

real special gear from A New Line (Related) aka Andrew Johnson - erstwhile member of Hood and The Remote Viewer - with 30 minutes of mostly drum-less gear in the spirit of Dave Moufang's Reagenz, via Pub and Rhythm & Sound boomkat.com/products/cre...

also, massive and eternal props to The Remote Viewer, one of the great forgotten bands of our time - if you've any interest in Hood, Talk Talk, Pole, Bark Psychosis or even the contemporary Escho+related scene - we strongly recommend spending some time boomkat.com/products/you...

Mobeer record label.

ALBUM OF THE WEEK: 'Not On The Radar (The Demos)' by Mark Fry This demos collection of the cult psychedelic folk songwriter’s latest album features stripped-down tracks made up of mostly just acoustic guitar and vocals. www.normanrecords.com/features/bes...

ALBUM OF THE WEEK: ‘I Wonder When They’re Going To Destroy Your Face’ by Prolapse Prolapse deliver one of the finest comeback records in recent memory, marrying noisy post-punk grit with motorik drive, sharp lyricism, and smart vocal trade-offs. www.normanrecords.com/features/bes...

Found a couple of these previously sold out tour CDs.. put them up on the Bandcamp if anyone wants one thedecliningwinter.bandcamp.com/album/buried...

Wetherby field yesterday.

A couple of years since this absolute beauty by ROCK on @homeassembly.bsky.social with MALK and Chris Adams homeassemblymusic.bandcamp.com/album/rock

In case anyone at all is wondering what I’m doing with this account I’m just putting up a random pic a day as a form of ‘entertainment’. I’ll run out soon so I’m sure it won’t go on much longer.

anewlinerelated.bandcamp.com/album/crewe-... 4 tracks of new music. Understand that it’s a really crowded market and people are constantly skint so you can just have a listen with a cup of tea for free as well as having the option to buy. Any shares massively appreciated!
