>Can anyone recommend me some Scorn albums? >Are any of these albums worth the money: Almost all the Scorn records are worth the money, but only a very few are truly stunning. >Colossus Interesting mix of grindcore and dub - definitely much heavier on the dub side, just has a very hard edge to it, so perhaps calling it grindcore is inappropriate. I don't regret buying it, but I don't listen to it too often. >Evanescence >Silver Rain Fell Ellipsis is the remixes of Evanescence - essential. Evanescence is a great record, but you don't really need it if you have ellipsis, which is far superior. I'll assume Silver Rain Fell is a single with the Meat Beat mix, in which case it's absolutely amazing, but all of it's on Ellipsis. >Gyral >Leave It Out Absolutely essential, but Leave it Out is just a single. >Zander Decent but just not as amazing as gyral, ellipsis, and logghi barogghi - the 3 you should listen to first (in that order). I've listened to one of those around every week for over a year. There are lots of other Mick Harris records, but the Lull lps are the only ones I enjoy nearly as much as Scorn (cold summer in particular), and they're totally beatless drifting ambient - very cold. --- the humble abbott arthur purvis set his hand hereto
