The later 'proper' album on Chrysalis just doesn't do it. It sounds flat lifeless and very drab. Such a shame.<BR/>If you're going to own one disc, aWttW is the one.music obsessivehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16191742084494035205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36560867.post-17383799132635708232007-10-31T20:10:00.000+01:002007-10-31T20:10:00.000+01:00Wonderful blog.Wonderful blog.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36560867.post-33519003856944129122007-10-31T19:42:00.000+01:002007-10-31T19:42:00.000+01:00FfFr82 Magnific!FfFr82 Magnific!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36560867.post-56134902161951966472007-10-27T21:22:00.000+02:002007-10-27T21:22:00.000+02:00Hello all!Hello all!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36560867.post-40847329596978647012007-10-17T00:03:00.000+02:002007-10-17T00:03:00.000+02:00Demos posted:www.fritzdiesspinne.blogspot.comDemos posted:<BR/><BR/>www.fritzdiesspinne.blogspot.comFritz die Spinnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08044000069564518324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36560867.post-59792560906990439362007-10-16T12:47:00.000+02:002007-10-16T12:47:00.000+02:00Very interested in the demos Fritz.

However, if anyone is interested I could rip the LP and singles from the discs.<BR/><BR/>I have the earlier stuff on vinyl, and a live gig that has some cool covers.

However, the band suceeded in sounding on their own with small influence of previous bands.<BR/>What is worth mentioning also is strange deviation in their releases. For instance, if you want all songs from their single Down to the wire, you have to buy all formats , because of various songs (7" B-side is Blood still flows, 12" B-side is Doctor Love while CDsingle got song Mirror blind)<BR/>Too bad they change sound to more commercial after Gathering dust, and too late they didn't last too long...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36560867.post-73503886365214466712007-10-10T03:20:00.000+02:002007-10-10T03:20:00.000+02:00THIS IS A GOTH CLASSIC !THANKSS.THIS IS A GOTH CLASSIC !<BR/><BR/>THANKSS.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36560867.post-32655058490732135712007-10-09T23:27:00.000+02:002007-10-09T23:27:00.000+02:00Thanks for this curious guy - was gonna post my co...Thanks for this curious guy - was gonna post my copy of 'Gathering Dust', saw your post and followed the link and it looks like the CD-R version has been discontinued so I may yet do.

The later stuff started to get a bit 'rock' a'la the cult who they supported quite a bit late on.<BR/>Cheers for this curious.John Liedownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03192012157789745979noreply@blogger.com
