This Week In Music Geek

In recent weeks Umlaut has been on one of his 7" single binges... Music Geeks know what I'm talkin' about. Anywho, here are the results:

Black Sabbath - Turn Up The Night (Phonogram 1981)
Picture disc

Grinderman - Get It On (Mute 2007)
Numbered #236 / 1000


Grinderman - No Pussy Blues (Mute 2007)
Numbered #128 / 2500 with poster

Krokus - American Woman (Arista 1982)
B-side = Long Stick Goes Boom

Lords Of The New Church - When The Blood Runs Cold (I.R.S. 1985)
European Tour single

UFO - Doctor Doctor (Crysalis 1979)
Clear vinyl + live shot with Schenker

Besides all that vinyl geekdom, a new song by Heaven And Hell titled 'The Devil Cried' has been posted 21st Century style HERE. I guarantee you this will be the only song released on a major label this year that begins with the line "One fine day in Hell..." DIO!

On a final note, this pic of horrible MTV mallrat favorites Fall Out Boy is in the latest issue of Entertainment Weekly wherein the guitarist is wearing..... a Carcass - Heartwork shirt???


For the newbies, Heartwork has just about the most perfect guitar tone of any Metal album in the history of mankind... Was that a bit too fanboy? Anyway, how this influences a crap emo band like Fall Out Boy is something my tiny mind can't comprehend.
