Ziamaluch --- V8 (one-sided LP)

Two weeks ago, I spent five days in my small bedroom with the flu, not having enough will to even get out of bed to check my e-mail (the way my priorities are, I kinda place checking my e-mail over sleeping or eating, usually). So it was me in my room, surrounded by records and "The Tempest", which Sara graciously let me borrow for way longer than any other human should let any other human borrow a book.

I spent Wednesday night/Thursday morning listening to V8 and finishing The Tempest. There was something very nice about it. Twenty minutes of masterful cello drone accompanying Prospero and Miranda. Kinda like The Wall and The Wizard of Oz. Well, not really. But you get the idea. Great record. Lets all hope the next one doesn't take a year-and-a-half. (Flipped Out Records, P.O.
