My Bloody Valentine's deeply destabilizing queasiness, amplified here to a frightening degree, has always struck me: There's a rush of feeling inside their music so intense it creates a kind of paralysis. Music swirls and moves in and out of phase, voices float by, half memory and half anticipation, and you're never quite sure how all the parts fit together. You get lost in it, and if you're wired a certain way that mixture of desire and confusion is easy to map on to the wider world. For 22 years, the only way to get there was through Loveless and its associated EPs; now there's another path, one many of us never expected to find. That it's this successful in spite of it all is something we never had a right to expect.
Nero tweeted that they return with a new album in 2013. Cloud Cult "Love" out next month but got my pre-order yesterday. Fairly decent album. Favorite lyric "some days you give thanks, some days you give the finger" Album won't break their Cult status. Also Benjamin Francis Leftwich will be out with a new album later this year and played a new song at his show the other night. Same old same old.
Shearwater begins recording for the upcoming album tentatively titled Fellow Travelers tomorrow, according to Jonathan Meiburg. I prefer their earlier stuff, but am looking forward to this record which is the first of two projects that Meiburg intends to release for Shearwater in 2013.

In the chorus to Chelsea Light Moving's "Heavenmetal," Sonic Youth's Thurston Moore offers a moment of uplift to set the tone for his new band's self-titled debut: "Be a warrior — love life." But from there, Moore and his new bandmates set out to pulverize and polarize.
Loose but jagged, playful but menacing, the music of Chelsea Light Moving (named, incidentally, for an actual moving company run by Philip Glass and Steve Reich) still finds room for glimmers of beauty. And, even when a given song devolves into an absolute shambles — heck, especially when a given song devolves into an absolute shambles — Chelsea Light Moving (out March 5) maintains Moore's enviable capacity to charm as he confuses.
Thurston killed at Sled Island with this new band.
