HULK
- Silver thread of Ghosts album launch www.osaka.ie

Hulk:
Hulk is Dublin artist Thomas Haugh, who uses a combination of organic and electronic processed sound with live instrumentation to produce atmospheric and expansive music, at times plaintive and brooding and at other times uplifting. Over the past three years Hulk has released material on UK labels Statoic Caravan, Expanding and Melodic, as well as contributing to some on-line compilation projects.

Debut album Silver thread of Ghosts is the result of one and a half years’ work. It’s thematically based around notions of memory and travel. Described by the artist as a series of postcards from the last ten years or so, of my life..., the album title is drawn from these themes as well as describing the process of making the music;

“...by taking a sound I’ve recording, and following it like a thread, ‘til it takes some kind of shape...”.


Jimmy Behan
Jimmy is somewhat of a veteran on the Irish electronic scene at this point. His tracks have previously surfaced on several compilations, Slanted and Enchanted, Synergia 1 + 2, Ballroom of Romance 5, Lazybird 1, Foggy Notions, a 12" EP for Kin Recordings and a split 7" for Road Relish. 2004 saw the release of his debut album "Days are what we live in" to favourable reviews (check it out here).

Jimmy has collaborated with and remixed both Nina Hynes and Alphastates, and made regular live appearances, among them support slots for Four Tet, Lali Puna, Caribou, Murcof, plus bookings for Mor 2004 and The Big Chill 2002.

Thanks to all who came down for this, and to Jimmy and the Hulk lads & lass for playing. Next week, we've got Richer Than Astronauts down at the club.

Due to the other Lazyfowl being occupied yesterday evening, I got to do the Power FM show myself, and so I indulged myself with a bit of industrial/grindcore/art metal/whatever:

Scraping Foetus off the Wheel, "I'll Meet You in Poland, Baby" (Self Immolation)
Throbbing Gristle, "Very Friendly" (Yeaah!)
Neurosis & Jarboe, "His Last Words" (Neurot)
Swans, "Our Love Lies" (Caroline)
Godflesh, "Wounds" (Earache)
Pailhead, "Don't Stand in Line" (Wax Trax!)
Helmet, "Unsung" (Interscope)
Lightning Bolt, "Hello Morning/Assassins" (Load)
Jesu, "We All Faulter" (Hydra Head)
Isis, "Wills Dissolve" (Ipecac)
Oxbow, "Insane Asylum" (SST)
Sunn O))), "Hell-O))) Ween" (Southern Lord)

You can hear the archived show here:

Was sorry to miss this last night, was kidnapped by the rellies and made to drink beer watching the sun set.

Listening to the Hulk album today (thanks Patrick) and I think it's amazing. The production is so good and the arrangements are just lovely.

Christ, that's a lot of gushing for one post, but feck, the sun's been out all day and I'm in a good mood.

Shit, if i'd know about this i'd probably have gone to it, and i don't go outdoors. Is this the first hulk album? the only thing i've ever heard is the static caravan single from a few years back which i liked lots.

 

[ratso]

yes, indeed this is the debut album from HULK.Amazing is a fair description.

 

[Mitchum]

Anyone hear the new Hulk album 'Rise Of A Mystery Tide' yet?

Know if he's playing any shows to pimp it?

 

[Unknown Convict]

nearly bought it off osaka yesterday but i'm sure it can be had for less than €18

 

[Mitchum]

Haven't seen it around town so bit the bullet and handed over the €18 today.

Tenner sterling on Norman Records though...
