I got both the new Husky Rescue and Royksopp. I really liked the new Royksopp but sold Husky Rescue.

I hear you on the video thing. I just have a little TV now. But I did like the Dead Can Dance, - TTW video. I am due to get some Bjork as well. I saw some snippets of one of her live performances on DirectV that I really enjoyed and want to acquire.

I found the Husky Rescue to sound American Indy: a sound that is small. Just my opinion, - but that Indy-rock-college-radio minimal, "I'm a super cool young art poet" is tired and over for me. Meat Puppets, Galaxie 500, Guided by Voices, - all of those Americans thinking small and sounding small. A big difference between bands like Nirvana, Husker Du, and even huge Brit bands that started in small clubs, - but never intended to be small, always, they sounded HUGE and wanted to be huge, = Simple Minds, Iggy, Gang of Four, U2 etc, etc. etc.

REM/Lets Active etc. are other small bands, where their best songs are covers. Peter Buck's greatest contribution to music history was working in a record store and finding the song Superman to cover, goodness knows he can't play a guitar to save his life....

OOh ouch... sorry for the rant... just don't like US bands....
Sorry, can't get into Husky, - complete with steel guitar, second only to the banjo for the world's most annoying instrument....

Anyways, - I did appreciate the tips though.

I don't know if the Kraftwerk will be releasing a DVD to coincide with the SACD release of Minimum Maximum. I heard snippets of Minimum Maximum and I'm waiting for the SACD before I get it. But, - I really liked what I heard....

Cheers,

There's no point in direction, we cannot even choose, a side
