Have you listened to the John Peel Session version of 'Horizontal Hold' yet?

Give it time man, I will.

What about the atmosphere on this? It really is something special.

Atmospheric indeed. Probably even more apocalyptic than 'Deceit' in that regard, despite the latter being constructed more or less around that exact concept. The four track run from 'Twilight Furniture' through 'Music Like Escaping Gas' is excellente.

Oh wow yes the Peel Sessions are awesome, loved that version + Makeshift Swahili + Saigon. Holy trinity.

Fuck yeah. I love that version of Swahili, but I love the one on 'Deceit', too. Its weird Frankenstein's monster reconstruction is intriguing in a way that kind of reinforces the album's themes of impending doom and looming, inexplicable eeriness. Plus the long lead-in from Radio Prague is nice.

Liking this more than Deceit on the first few spins. It's definitely more avant-garde but honestly it feels more cohesive and some of the textures here are just incredible. Haunting stuff.

This Heat wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't for the humidity.

'Yo this is cool'

YESSSS! There was me thinking you'd completely bypass my rec somehow, nice seeing you here Johnny.



'This Heat wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't for the humidity.'

They certainly make me wet and sticky.

Are you proud of me tect? I could've rec'd Johnny ANYTHING, I chose this. Passing on the love and hoping the great cycle continues.

Yes yes, I know you'd rather me rec Deceit (check that too Johnny). And the Peel Sessions are essential.
