Okay, I've only heard of two of these.

I, for one, am glad I don't have an Aquarius in my backyard. Whenever I visit their stores, I leave my wallet in the car and take cash (due to previous troublesome overspending). I swear, if they had one in Portland (home of 31 Knots!) I would be bankrupt or an employee or both.

BTW how is the Nurse With Wound?

I'll let you know when I've listened to it. I have the other two Angry Eelectric Finger albums (w/ Jim O'Rourke and irr.app.(ext)), and they're both excellent.

We eagerly look forward to Radio Kenko, the Aquarius Edition.

Yes, that was an imperial 'we'. I'm indulging my inner queen today.

(Stop smirking, amberglow.)

That Nurse With Wound is one of those albums that I appreciate, yet rarely listen to. Well, to be honest, that's all of my NWW.
What's the theme of the Ethiopiques?
You'll give mini-reviews of all of 'em, right?

Oooh. Was I responsible for the Ethiopiques? :)

It was a contributing factor.

Yeah, well, I've only got 120-odd unlistened-to albums, so...
