bodychoke - completion

released 2004

and now back to our regularly scheduled program

the title of this album is pretty fitting as now all of the band's albums can be found on SGM here (a link to the MINDSHAFT album can be found in the comments section) and here

this is a compilation of unreleased stuff and alternate versions of songs found on their previously released albums

and for those unfamiliar...i've brought in some bands to help sway you:

big black
swans
godflesh

eh?

DL: completion

bodychoke - five prostitutes

released in 1996


"criminally underrated rock band from the early 90s, for fans of swans, the god machine, my bloody valentine, sonic youth, dicks" -some guy

the album is named after jack the ripper's victims...and could very well be what goes on inside the head of any serial killer

and with the help of steve albini...these five lads from the UK lay it all out for you to see

this is what would happen if neurosis and the birthday party and the jesus lizard invited roger waters over to their house for a jam session

the band was together for only a short time (1993-1998...a side project of the "power electronics noise" band whitehouse...though this is at the other end of the spectrum...they released only two albums and a compilation of unreleased material

DL: five prostitutes

bodychoke - cold river songs

released in 1998

the band's final release...the title is very fitting

if you like your depression and anxiety with a little more piss and vinegar rather than "if a double-decker bus crashes into us/to die by your side/is such a heavenly way to die"...this is for you (that's right...i went the smiths all over yer asses)

this album would be driving said double-decker bus

if you'd like to give the band's second album a listen (five prostitutes)...you can find it here as well

this is what would happen if neurosis and the birthday party and the jesus lizard invited roger waters over to their house for a jam session

this would turn steve albini into morrisey
