Oh, my.  In 2002, Oliver Lieb recorded an album for release under his L.S.G. alias.  Superstition Records, the label he'd been releasing all of his L.S.G. material on up to that point, went bankrupt.  He shelved the album and went on to other projects for five years.  In 2007, he gave away a 192k mp3, initially via MySpace.  It was one continuous track, which meant it was pretty much useless for DJing purposes.  Today he announced that the album will be released on his BandCamp page on the 28th.  Finally, there will be a proper release for this album.   :dance:

Austra - Olympia came out today.  You had me at electro-goth.    I :ian:Feel It Break, and Katie Stelmanis' vocals are great.

Just finishing up my 2nd listen this morning.  It's fantastic, and I have a whole new appreciation for what I'm hearing and the differences between the albums after reading that article. 

 

I :ian: the album, for sure.  It's pretty damn amazing.

Well this is interesting:

Hesitation Marks was mastered in two different ways - the standard, “loud” mastering (which is what you’ll find on the CD, on iTunes, and everywhere else), and also an alternate “audiophile” mastering, which we’re offering as a free download option for anyone who purchases the album through http://store.nin.com/ . For the majority of people, the standard version will be preferable and differences will be difficult to detect. Audiophiles with high-end equipment and an understanding of the mastering process might prefer the alternate version.

For a detailed explanation with quotes from Alan Moulder and Tom Baker, read our blog post at http://nineinchnails.tumblr.com/post/59587808317/hesitation-marks-was-mastered-in-two-different

NOTE: The standard mastered version is in no way inferior to the Audiophile Version - we wouldn’t release something inferior as the default. And vinyl purists rest assured, the vinyl edition was mastered to sound the very best for that format. The Audiophile Version is merely an alternate take on the mastering, which some people will appreciate. It’s meant to give a slightly different experience, not denigrate the standard version. Listen to each and come to your own conclusions.

3 releases today worth mentioning...

Sarah Jarosz - Build Me Up From Bones

CHVRCHES - The Bones if What You Believe

Frankie Rose - Herein Wild

I've been looking forward to two of them, and the third was a pleasant surprise to find out about yesterday.

Why doesn't Frankie Rose have the word "bones" in his album title?  Didn't he get the memo?

 

I noticed that when I was typing them out... And Frankie, oddly enough, is a she.

 

 

Au Revoir Simone's and Anneke's albums Move in Spectrums and Drive (respectively) both come out toda...yesterday as well.  And Oh Land's Wish Bone.

 

I really like Au Revoir Simone's stuff I heard on Spotify.  I'll have to dig a little deeper.  I'll be curious on what people think about Anneke's album.  Her stuff is usually pretty hot and cold for me.

Yeah, I realized Frankie was a she when I listened to the album, along with the rest of your list, plus Oh Land on Dusty's recco.  :D  I knew Sarah but not the others, and I enjoyed them.
