I've been on a Mute kick lately. Drummer of DAF does really emotional synth music. He released an awesome LP on Mute featuring Annie Lennox and a seriously sexy cover that I'll post later.

Silicon Teens - Music For Parties
Download
"Today's artist is Silicon Teens, a fictional UK outfit spearheaded by the infamous Daniel Miller, head of independent wave label Mute Records. After two releases under The Normal (both the famous 'Warm Leatherette' 7'' and an experimental live recording with Robert Rental), Miller took to his synths to record a series of updated (and somewhat campy) 50s/60s rock n'roll tunes (alongside two originals), adopting a false 'teen' band to handle any budding press. Fad Gadget's Frank Tovey would act as lead vocalist during interviews as the remainder of the 'band' was portrayed by various actors, however, every note and vocal take was recorded by Miller himself.
Though one track from the Silicon Teens' lone release appeared on the soundtrack for Planes, Trains, and Automobiles, the 1980 record had little impact or chart success, and rumor claims that Mute would sign Depeche Mode soon after blowing the lid off the project in attempts to successfully market a true teen wave act."

Darkthrone - Under A Funeral Moon
Download
I can type up some pretentious sounding shit about how this is the most overlooked Darktrhone album, but I'd rather get down and dirty with these frostbitten riffs.

Celtic Frost - Morbid Tales
Download
This one's for all the idiots who think they're true because they have a crush on the singer from Light This City and wear pre-faded KISS shirts to be ironic. Real metal up your ass.

Windir - Arntor
Download
A seamless blend of folky viking chants and unholy goat worship just in time for those howling winds from the frozen fjords to the north.

Above the Ruins - Songs of the Wolf
Download
Tony Wakeford's project after he left Death in June and before he started Sol Invictus. Very similar to Nada!-era DI6 though not as new wave.

Sorry for the long absence. Was really busy with school and took a much deserved short vacation after that. I'll try to up the post count before I head back to the salt mines next month.
'84 gothy post punk from the heart of the English countryside.
