My band Waxlimbs is playing our next gig on March 27th in Toronto! We'll be sharing the stage with Erin Corbett for her album release.
I'm sooo excited! Yesterday, I was fiddling with ways to improve the playlist engine of flowvi.be and had an absolute breakthrough that will cut the server costs by 90%. Not only it makes better playlists but I will be able to offer a one-time lifetime option 💸
This was also quite essential to keep the project sustainable and I want to eventually open source it. I'm also not very keen on making people have yet-another-sub if I can help it.

AFGHAN WHIGS
Congregation
2017 U.S. 2xLP reissue @ 45rpm
The only essential Whigs album I was missing, and I finally found it today!
I’ve never seen an original press, but this sounds so good on my system (cut at 45rpm), I don’t think I’ll ever need to bother.
Everybody calls Gentlemen the absolute Whigs masterpiece. They’re not wrong, as it is a stroke of #90s genius.
However, it always baffles me that few people hold Congregation in the same light.
It’s equally breathtaking, and the first REAL taste of how good the Whigs were.
Sub-Pop were on the brink of collapse when they made it, and the label couldn’t even pay the band’s studio bills.
Then NEVERMIND hit, & things were fine.
Didn’t matter.
The Whigs were off to Elektra after this.
I’m glad this reissue includes the hidden track “Miles Iz Ded” (it’s unlabelled), as it’s one of the great Whigs classics.

I've seen both bands enough times that it feels like home at their concerts.
I love Bishop Allen and Mates of State.

Mary Lattimore and Julianna Barwick made a record together #music https://juliannabarwick.bandcamp.com/album/tragic-magic
On this day in 2006 (20 years ago), I was watching Ok Go play the Night & Day Café in Manchester.
The following day I watched / photographed Bromheads Jacket. It was very common that I would go to multiple shows each week.
