Yep. _The Wonderful and Frightening World of Black Lung_, on 
Rollercoaster here (in .au). I got it a month back. Good stuff. I 
think stuff like _The Depopulation Bomb_, _The Disinformation 
Plague_, etc. have also been re-released locally.

Yep. Black Lung is just David Thrussell. Soma is David and Pieter 
Bourke. I've only got "Stygian Vistas" by them (quite rightly
recommended by a listmember, though it isn't all dub). 

Getting off the track, Pieter Bourke and Lisa Gerrard (formerly of 
Dead Can Dance, since they've broken up.) also bunged out an 
interesting arabic-influenced thing with Gerrard doing her wierd 
singing bit last year on "Duality". That's out on 4AD, so it can't be 
too hard to find... Pretty good too...

I'm not quite sure about what the makeup of Snog is, but they're a 
bit more poppy (insofar as anything Thrussell could be pop.

Wee, I finally added some signal!
