The Czars - Best Of (2014)
Probably best known for the band that preceded singer John Grant’s solo career, The Czars made a bunch of stunning records years before his fame.

commentsAnother record from my London haul, this vinyl/CD combo harks back to a familiar sound I first encountered and thought had ended in the early to mid 80’s.
commentsNot the usual Friday evening fodder, but when one wants to purge this is as good as it gets. This just about drop kicks every musical genre known to man (and alien) out the window but still transcends all of it.
commentsAlso picked this up cheaply (on heavy vinyl) during a smash and grab run at TWH. These Doom Metallers from Sweden went all Opeth and lost the growly vocals.
comments$15 at TWH buys a big slab of Mountain on vinyl at the peak of their career. I’d pay a lot more just to have a pristine version of “Mississippi Queen” on analogue.
