[kj] transmission/nwobfg

[Alexander Smith]

Last few albums I've picked up:

A MATTER OF LIFE AND DEATH by Iron Maiden
NINETEENEIGHTIES by Grant Lee Philips
BEG TO DIFFER by Prong (to replace my old cassette copy)
THE GREATEST GIFT by Scratch Acid (to replace my old vinyl copy)
THE MODERN DANCE by Pere Ubu

and a friend from work gave me an advance copy of the new Melvins disc.

All good stuff. Dying to get my hands on the Transmission record.

Hate to say it, but that Prong album (pre-Raven) really hasn't aged  
as well as I was hoping.
