Primal Scream - More Light [12", 2LP]

I'm not such a big fan of PRIMAL SCREAM's previous two albums (Riot City Blues from 2006 and Beautiful Future from 2008) however i love their older ones. So i was a bit precautious and it wasn't a "blind purchase", this MORE LIGHT album. But after i'd heard the album a few times i was convinced: this is the Scream back in their old shape. There are plenty of cool tracks on this album, but if i'd had to choose, i'd say that Hit Void is my favourite one. A great noisy garage/shoegaze track with cacophonous saxophones at the end, that sounds better the louder you play it. Although opening track 2013 with Kevin Shields on guitar isn't bad either. Or the track River Of Pain. And i could go on and on, because like said earlier there are plenty of cool tracks here. Definitely a contestant for this year's Top 10 list.

Soundtrack - Lost In Translation [12", Picture Disc]

This picture disc with the lovely behind in see-through underwear of Scarlett Johansson on one side, is one of my favourite picture discs. Normally i'm not too fond of picture discs due to their doubtable musical quality, but since this album is extremely hard to find on vinyl i'm pretty happy with it. LOST IN TRANSLATION has many great artists on the soundtrack; such as Kevin Shields, My Bloody Valentine, The Jesus & Mary Chain, Death In Vegas and Air.

And, to be honest: who doesn't want Scarlett's ass on a picture disc?
