Elsewhere

Until I find something that sufficiently interests and/or annoys me to write a real post (give it a day or two), there's the following:

More Schadenfreude chez the supposedly new novel-writing Impostume, who is also entirely correct about the fantastic new Tricky single;

The Institute for Conjunctural Research on Italian Communist Prog Rock, which hopefully is only the preamble to a future book on this subject, maybe taking in the non-Italian likes of Henry Cow, Matching Mole, Scritti Politti etc...Note also the mention at the end of a record with perhaps the greatest title in musical history;

New blog New Plastic Ideas, very promising so far, posts spanning from Bogdanov to Wal-Mart.
