I've listened to this about 2 times per day since Breakself put it up.Just wanted to reiterate that this is probably the best psych LP i've heard to date.I'll buy a copy if anybody wants to pay their rent.Weather Girl & Falling Asleep are my favs, but the whole thing is a mindbloodpoopshiter.

    Super cosign!!! This album is absolutely ridiculous. My favorite is Forge Your Own Chains.

    Apparently he has another album. Anyone have that?

    That's what I'm saying. Every fucking track is a bowl mover.
  • nrichnrich 932 Posts
    true, it is 'that heat'
    and not to be confused with Dr. Hooker, which might be a different album altogether.
    Ask some old psych heads on this board, I'm sure someone knows someone with a copy.

    Seriously... I might convert to Xian on the strength of this LP alone

    Yes, their was a re-ish in the 80's I think. Also hard to find and not cheap.

    Weather Girl & Falling Asleep are my favs, but the whole thing is a mindbloodpoopshiter.

    I know of a copy for sale $1000

    Right, but not terrible. By contrast, I snagged the Agape reissue for $7.99.

    Again: What is said in the backmasked outro of this album? I MUST KNOW.

    Agape is a killer too and shant be slept on. Can be had for less than $100 easily
  • nrichnrich 932 Posts
    on second thought, maybe not so easily

    FUCK!

    One went for $600 (VG) or so three weeks ago in one of those private e-mail auctions. I actually put down $1,000 on another psych lp in the same auction and lost ;( There is a reissue of the Dr Hooker in Montreal if you want it.

    tell ness to post more.

    The bonus tracks are the songs from the other lp/comp he had. The one with the black spiral thing on the front. You can get an OG of the second lp for $49 from some dood in France on Gemm I think. I found it back when the first lp was posted on SS but I didn't bother buying it.

    No shit. I buy records from this psych guy who has almost every thing raer on CD,
    Laghonia, Bent Wind, etc. He was not particularly fond of this and said that even 20 bucks for a CD was a waste. He described it as almost a field recording and that the sound quality was bad. I may have to try it out though.

    This is better, IMO, than Laghonia. Sound quality is a bit unfortunate, but - hey - it's a private press.
  • Rod_TorfulsonRod_Torfulson 464 Posts
    Dude, which Laghonia? Because not much I've heard is better than Etcetera. I like Glue too, but Etcetera floors me every time. I have to hear this shit now. He made it sound all amateurish. He didn't like Corpus either, has anyone heard that?
  • luckluck 4,077 Posts
    Etcetera



    I don't know why I do. Maybe it's my ultra-religious past that I can resonate with (in the sickest, most self-depricating manner possible). You might not. Give it a listen.

    Have you heard Fraction? Private psych from California. Some of it is somewhat lame in that its unabashed Morrison-biting from the lead singer. However, the track Come Out of Her is fucking fire. I mention it because the lyrics are esoteric/occult and vaguely Christian in parts. Worth checking out.

    Thanks for the good word. I'll try to track it down.

    Does the title reference Revelation 18?
