@slaw Covet is fantastic. 3 virtuosos playing highly melodic math rock. Progressive rock with a certain tone using a lot of notes. One of my other favorite math rock artists is Plini, whom I’ve posted about many times here.
Covet’s guitarist is a Japanese American woman music professor who decided she wanted to record and tour instead. Extremely talented and beautiful melodic tunes. No vocal (a plus!).
unfortunately, the sq on the record is not very good. It it’s great music. Check it out.

@slaw, thanks!
Mostly dug out of my moving experience, trying to squeeze more fun stuff every day.
For the last couple of months @tomic601 @spiritofradio @nicks25 @bkeske have been the only ones subjected to my rants on another venue. Thanks for keeping me sane, guys!

Arrived today. I had the cassette (with high miles) back in the day but not the LP. A mention from @loomisjohnson reminded me I needed the LP. Have never heard of Fire Records, this double LP is really quiet with decent SQ.

Radiohead - Hail To The Thief
2003/2016 XL Records 45 RPM Reissue
I picked up the LP recently after having the CD for many years and am glad I did. The LP sounds great and is far more listenable than the CD. I don't always find that to be the case and am sometimes disappointed when the LP doesn't sound very much different than the CD version but that's not the case here. XL did a nice job on this reissue.

Thanks James. I guess that must mean Sturgill's voice is healing?

@slaw
How do you like Sound & Fury? Never streamed it but it intrigues me.
Hey Steve, apologies - just saw this. Hope you’re doing ok.
I like it but I can’t play it when my wife is home. Although it has some elements of country it’s also very angry hard rock - which is uniquely done sound wise (it’s kinda all about the sound and not the songs really). So, it’s pretty different from both the Sailor record (horrible SQ on that one) and the Meta Modern Sounds record (better sq).
my younger Daughter is friendly with Paco, the guy who helped SS mix Sound & Fury. She told me recently that SS plans to front a band and make another loud rock album but under the band’s name and not under his own.

It's actually pretty good James. Lively. Actually only my second listen, and got side tracked with my AC condenser acting up, so was trouble shooting that last night. 😡

I see Emerson and Fripp while quite different taking their music to the outer limits with Greg Lake being the calming force bringing them back down to earth.

@tgilb
Difficult to think what path King Crimson would have taken had Greg Lake not left for ELP but I’m glad he did as I enjoy the journey that both bands took.
Really interesting speculation
