Morphe':

efd (and all who missed it) efd - that was a great article ya sent in last week to Pseu's show Re: Mark Edwards = My DAD IS DEAD ..
Fav quote: " I’ve always thought the people of Cleveland had a remarkable resilience in the face of national jokes, declining industry and job base, dilapidated housing stock, losing sports teams, you get the picture. It definitely contributed to the yeah-but-we’re-still-here mentality, but also a constant background noise of, “What’s the next bad thing that’s going to happen?” I grew up in a poor neighborhood and lived inside the city limits most of my life there, until my thirties. So nighttime automatic-weapons fire, street fights, and break-ins were not uncommon. When I was a kid, I had my bike stolen from our garage. When I was a teenager, my car was stolen from the grocery-store parking lot where I worked. When I was 10, I was bitten severely by a German shepherd on my newspaper route, requiring months of wound care and rehab once it became infected. My mom was sick throughout my early teens and passed away when I was 17. I was hit by a car, walking home from work when I was 16, and nearly had to have my leg amputated; it ended up being an inch shorter than the other one, and I’ve had a limp ever since. So you could say I had a typical Cleveland upbringing...."

DaDa is terrifying. so is ZCS. just unsettling. Armed Forces is also weird, but has "Skeletons in the Closet" which rules.

Flush the Fashion had a new-wavish cover of the Music Machine's "Talk Talk". It wasn't bad, but it's no Music Machine.

It's the only Alice Cooper record I have. Clones was one of teenage me's favorite songs that year.

The album very quickly went into cutouts. Side A is a great listen, because you get the payoff of the songs Clones. I'm not sure I've listened to side B more than once or twice.

efd, we tried to get tix to see Lulu Lewis at Mercury Lounge, but they no longer deliver tickets except via an app. No box office anymore. So I guess we'll head down there the day of the show and see if they will let us exchange money for goods and services and let us in the damn door without an app.

I know a couple of people comment after I posted the Record Store Day list and I couldn't respond because I was writing stories about the list for work.
