The new KM album is finished and is called HAPPY HOUR. Not sure when
it is scheduled for release but it's probably not going to be too
long since I managed to latch on to an advance cassette recently.

Regarding This Mortal Coil, Spin Magazine (I think) interviewed Ivo
Watts-Russell about a year or so ago, and in the interview he announced that
"Blood" would be the last TMC project.  He said he didn't want to take the
project any further.  

Also, if anyone's interested, 4AD will be releasing a TMC box set in February
(in the UK) which will supposedly contain a fourth CD of all the original
recordings of the songs that TMC covered.  (From the 4AD newsgroup).

The only other lp they have is a self-titled lp also on Homestead.
It was released in '85, but it's still in print (colored vinyl
re-issues came out last year). But, if you've got the 'Skag Heaven'
cd, you already have this.

Squirrel Bait is no more - they broke up so that they could go to
college. How lame.

:)

But - they're almost all in other bands now.

Bastro: Two Bait-ers in here. First ep and lp have a very Big Blackish
sound, but a bit more kinetic and jumpy. Their latest lp, 'Sing The
Troubled Beast' has them in their own sound - very, very good. Not
as abrasive, and their songwriting is excellent! (All on Homestead).

Bitch Magnet: One in this combo. Has that North Carolina sound to em.
Really good - but a "musician's band", if you know what I mean.
Everything on either Skyclad or Tupelo. The first two lps come on
on CD (Starbooty and Umber) - and those two are my personal faves.

Slint: Now departed. Really really slow. Drrraaaaaagggggggggggggsssss.
Really cool, though. Imagine the Melvins gone pop.

Big Wheel: The singer for SB is in this one. Very lame 70's AOR-ish
stuff. Avoid! Lyrics are kinda okay though.

Seam: Ocassionally has members of Bastro fill in for its members, usually
at live shows.

My Dad Is Dead: Same deal.

Anything I'm leaving out? Feel free to email for better worded opinions!

The remix compilation you've seen is probably The Ambient Collection,
which really isn't that remixed.  It is more just environmental sounds
layered over the regular versions of the tracks, with some extended
(although pointless) links, and a 'new' track called Art Of Love which
is a Soul II Soul style shuffly beat hodgepodge of sampled bits from
songs on In No Sense? Nonsense!

>I think Anne and JJ parted company after Below the Waste.

True.  But they are back together now *with Gary Langan* recording a
new album as the good old 3-member Art of Noise.  They admit that they
did their best work when it was the 3 of them.  JJ and Gary have been
travelling around gathering new sounds and rhythms, last I heard.

You might be interested in getting on the Art Of Noise mailing list
(aon-request@polyslo.csc.calpoly.edu) which has very low traffic right
now.  Also you can email Ian Peel, who writes the ZTT fanzine Outside
World and will have the latest scoop on AoN and other past and present
ZTT bands, at s04588@prime-a.plymouth.ac.uk.

I think Anne and JJ parted company after Below the Waste. Anne and some other

music was about pyramids, or it had pyramids on the cover (could be both, *who*
*knows*???)

Anyway. Read a review of it, apparently it's quite good.

And that, I'm afraid, is the limit of my helpfulness :-)

This is from memory, so I've not got release dates or cataolgue no.s.
I think it's more or less complete though and in chronological order
(roughly).


12" Walking With Jesus b/w Rollercoaster 
LP The Sound of Confusioon
12" Transparent Radiation b/w Things Won't Be The Same & Starshp
LP The Perfect Prescription
LP Performance (Live)
LP Playing With Fire 
12" Revolution
LP Recurring
12" Big City (Various releases with different mixes)
LP Taking Drugs to Make Music to Takke Drugs To (Early Demos) [On
Forced Exposure Records]


Also:

Sonic Boom 

LP Spectrum 


The S3 records really divide into three types. Lound grungey drone
rock, quiet trance-like drone rock, synthy ravely drone rock. What
you buy depends on what your'e looking for. My personal fave is
the Transparent Radiation 12" (whic clocks in at abut 40 mins anyway)
as you get both the noise and the trance. If that should prove hard
to get The Perfect Prescription is pretty good, but then they're all
good.  The Sonic Boom rec ain't bad either.

Sonic Boom now has a band called Spectrum (not to be confused with
the title of his solo record) and Jason is recording under the 
Spiritualized moniker, but I know nothing about either bands work.
