CUT HANDS NEWS

The two beautiful new Cut Hands vinyl volumes are out! I've a few copies (can be signed ones too if you'd like) - $60 for both albums (Volume 3 and Volume 4) including free worldwide shipping (PayPal is to the usual susanlawly@gmail.com).

Also the original Afro Noise mix from 2008 is now up at Soundcloud. Where the whole Cut Hands project began. A few of the free 100 downloads they offer still available last time I checked.

Lots of exciting shows coming up and really looking forward to touring the USA with Godflesh next month. Next two shows are unmissable! March 29th 2014, Glasgow School Of Art with Florian Hecker and Konx-om-Pax, and then on April 4th 2014 there's a totally stacked line-up at the Downwards night at Corsica Studios, London.

ARTPOP

A conversation with Lisa Blanning about Lady Gaga's ARTPOP.

DAMBALLAH 58

The new Damballah 58 vinyls gently and safely landed!
BEB have once again done a fabulous job of making them look and sound so great, that attention to detail really makes such a difference. There's a full preview of the A-side at Soundcloud. I do have a few here for sale (US$20 Europe/US$25 ROW shipping included, PayPal to the usual susanlawly@gmail.com), and of course if you'd like a signed one please just feel free to ask.

A COLOURFUL STORM

This is a new mix I did for A Colourful Storm, hope you enjoy.

FILLMORE DISCOS 74

Helter-Skelter, 2012 (****)
like the contents of Sweet fashion magazine converted into a disturbing horror film, Japanese photographer-director Mika Ninagawa's eyes-wide-open dazzlingly explicit visual feast of an exquisite idol girl's dark descent to madness

Maniac, 2012 (*)
utterly pointless remake of Joe Spinell's sleaze horror: awkward dialogue, porn quality acting, and horribly self-conscious POV technology

Spring Breakers, 2012 (***)
nice audiovisual aesthetics, girls are great, it all promises so much... and then James fucking Franco appears

The Conjuring, 2013 (*)
the one scary thing about this laughably clichéed Amityville rip-off cum RC propaganda film is its box office success

L'Apollonide, 2011 (*****)
dispassionately dark and beautifully realised anthology of women's life experiences in a 1900s Parisian bordello
