it's friday night, it's top of the pops!

down 8 at #12 is the sundowner 7". embassy/amber inn styled
emo/screamo from switzerland. (4 copies = £3 each)

then at #11, it's back again, it's the portrait 7". final recordings
from these guys - new songs, previously unreleased. saetia / i robot
styled emo/screamo. (5 copies = £2.50 each)

in it #10, it's cometbus issue 48! 'back to the land'. an issue with
some interviews by aaron. (2 copies = £1.50 each)

a non-mover at #9, we have some copies of issue #12 of the assassin
and the whiner zine - it has comics and words! it is quite cheap
because the copies are slightly water damaged - (4 copies = 50p each)

this weeks #8, the ever popular burn collector! issue #10 here. al
burian writes more cool stuff. cool. (4 copies = £1.25 each)

back in at #7, i have copies of issue #2 of walkie talkie back in
stock. nate 'soophie nun squad' powell drawing surreal emo-comic (2
copies = £2 each)

a new entry at 6, a singular copy of a split 7" between the necktie
party and the plot to blow up the eiffel tower. necktie party is
screamy-emo like saetia, vida blue & embassy. will i ever tire of
this style? not yet! fantastic. their split-mates here are a little
more spastic, rocking out like harriet the spy at times. (1 copy =
£2.50)

5? well it's a 7 track cd of explosive hardcore by 'black widows!',
coming on like dead inside, born against, some mike kirsch style
distortion and hail mary, except with a production budget. ex-
members of bands i have heard of but never listened to. (3 copies =
£5.50 each)

back in at #4 i have more black eyes 7". weird no/new wave whatever
type stuff. lord knows how to describe it. this is their label:
http://www.ruffianrecords.com - hope that helps. (2 copies = £3 each)

and at #3 it's a split 7" between londons emo-screamo rascals, soon
the darkness, and southampton thrash-niks, parade of enemies.
benefit release for Anthony Nolan Bone Marrow Trust in memory of
Jon 'Shoes' Kay. (6 copies = £2.25 each)

then at #2 it's a stunner - the unexpected new entry of the bright
calm blue 12"! i didn't even know this was due out. 8 tracks of emo
bastardry from this great band that is my favourite screamy-emo band
since saetia, i robot, portrait etc - good to know bands can still
make screamo this good! ... (3 copies = £6.50 each)

and at last, at #1, the long awaited 10" split between the khayembii
communique and the vida blue. i can't quite believe it's out either.
blue vinyl. mmm. apparently after this pressing, it will be changed
to be a split between KC and the 10 grand though! (3 copies = £6.50
each)

emo!

andy.
