some said sputnik would die would die with a bang; some knew all along that the end times would come in a feeble trickle of tectactoe rankings reposted with minimal alterations from two pages back

Lmao (1) you're not wrong but (2) any Sput-goings-on—including my own—are immediately wiped from memory the moment the page breaks.

Good to see that 'Real Love' has been gaining some traction, though, apparently.

Damn this shit rules

Sounds kind of like proto-Godflesh and tbh I wouldn't be surprised if Swans on the whole had a sizeable influence

I think definitely



"Half Life" off of Cop is always the one that exemplifies that uh comparison to the Godflesh sound for me... as a whole I feel like this one, while still heavy, got a little less heavy from the earlier stuff so I never thought of it that way but now that you mention it

no idea what the quality was or how much of an effect any remastering had on the sound but still regretting not getting my hands on a copy since the repress that dropped a few years back
