Records: buying more of them, writing about them, listening to them over and over again, listening to them once and then filing them, failing to file them, buying duplicates of them on different formats, buying duplicates of them on the same format without realizing it, knocking over piles of them.
Instruments to play: ukulele, 4-track, korg, cracklebox.
Here's a handy guide to help you tell apart the various bands I'm in right now: The Human Hairs (that's the one with Saul), Preggy Peggy & the Lazy Babymakers (that's the one with James), Exusamwa (with Doug, Nell & Neil), Duck That (with Steve & Josh), the Coughing Club (just me & my ukulele), Moshi Moshi I Am the Decider (with Dave & Polly & Vic), the Swas Nigs (with Tim & Dennis). Wasn't so hard, was it? Stick around, cause there'll probably be another ten bands by this time next week. The above bands, as well as several projects that aren't currently active have issued some records, cdrs, etc., most of which you can buy from me at Weirdo.

I'm a big fan of children's records, anything with karate sound effects, nasal whining, kazoos/jew's harps, or bass harmonica. And how could I forget Vic Mizzy, Oum Kalthoum, Mel Henke, Flower Travelling Band, Johnny Preston, Dusty Fletcher, the Flamingos, Carmen Miranda, Ross Bagdasarian, the Noise Ramones, Cab Calloway, Metalux, and Farid El Atrache? Recent raves? Why they'd be Hans Grusel, Muhammad Ali, Mammal, Stickball, Irene "Granny" Ryan, 3/3, and Quentin E. Klopjaeger. Did I mention Shuggie Rodelle and his (Goddamn!) Imperial Imbiblio Rhythm Band? I'm also very partial to Cactus, Dion & the Belmonts, anything with chipmunk voices, DJs Whoo Kid & RC, Pete Rugolo, & Monoshock. And there's more, like Telegraph Avenue, Dale Hawkins, Merle Travis, Troupe Majidi, every single instant waxed by Los Mirlos, Tommy James & the Shondells, Leonardo Paniagua, & Mauricio Kagel. And yep, I still quickly pull out my long knives to defend my childhood faves Van Halen, the Doors, Hall & Oates, & especially the Eagles.

Television
Blinky's Fun Club, Uncle Floyd, 'El Kabong'.
It took me at least six months to think up any tv shows I liked that weren't aimed at small children. Mostly I'm too busy selling/pontificating about records. I do think Joe E. Ross from 'Car 54 Where Are You' is a really good singer though, don't you?
Books
Tosches, Meltzer, Andy Earles, Coley, Bangs, Justin Farrar, Klosterman. Husserl's Crisis,
Plato's Theatetus, St. Thomas' Summa, Karl Rahner, Michael Polanyi. Outside of hefty phenomenology/Jesuit tomes & even heavier record reviews, I'm quite badly read. Do enjoy such usual suspects as Thomas Mann, Poe, Philip K. Dick, Lem, Ballard. Always had a soft spot for Thornton Wilder's 'The Bridge of San Luis Rey' (kinda the philosophy fan's answer to a Nick Drake record).

About me:
I spend all of my time between 9 foot high shelves of records. They're here.
Put an umbrella in your mouth and open it.
I have a different band name for every day of the week. Click on a track to hear it:
We used to be called "Mumrik" that was looking for a singer and now we finally found a singer and the band name became STM since we are working together at a distance of 6000miles from Leeds, UK to Kyoto, Japan. And we uploaded 3 songs now. Check them and let me know what you think. Thanks.

This is the first set from the slightly tweaked Beach Fuzz line-up with Fliss Horrocks now playing guitar alongside Tom Settle and Nick Mitchell. Seven tracks of clattering drums, chugging and wailing guitars, screaming keyboards, mellow, lilting pastoral improv and moaned vocals.

I really thought you were going to clock someone with that stepladder. Then you broke free of it riding a folding chair. I though someone was going to wear that thing, wrasslin' style. Uncertainty is where it's at. Great fucking clip!!!
I totally slept on that NO BALLS 7''. Are you going to be getting that back in stock? Also, regale me with tales of Exusamwa on the road when you get the chance.
Yo! Nice page, forreal! Hey do me a favor and check out my new single "I.D.K" ITS CURRENTLY NUMBER 1# ON WWW.NEWENGLANDHIPHOP.COM PLEASE HELP IT STAY THAT WAY BY CLICKING THE BANNER!! <
Hey, I'm sorry I missed your gig in CLE. Mandy's been sick all week and it may be this Swine bullshit. We'll find out monday. Since I don't believe in life or death, I'll be fine. Hope all went well with your little jaunt. Please tell me the details when you get situated.
Recorded at The Bowling Green pub in Manchester on 17th November 2008, when Bridget was on tour with Marcia Bassett, this is a maximal 25-minute set of epic guitar brutalising and deep, moaned vocal incantations. Employing a bow and 'metal' effects pedals, the resulting cacophony is orchestral in scope, rendering almost unreliable the memory of one woman and her instrument. Somewhat akin to Bassett's duo with Matthew Bower, Hototogisu, the deeply layered tones created by Hayden offer, upon first exposure, a somewhat icy auditory experience, but as the recording settles in, the richness and sheer breadth of sound wraps around you like a feather quilt and shifts your perception almost 180 degrees. A truly magnificent set from this former Vibracathedral Orchestra member.

Naturally, as soon as I get booted you come up as a post! Now I have to go back to singing your praises to the drunks and druggies looking for AUTOGRAPH cassettes.
