[kj] Pylon

[Stephen Robinson]

Interesting, amazon uk is having difficulties getting the double vinyl in, looks like staying with pledgemusic wasn't a mistake after all. 

I'm sure I checked amazon said they had their stock in. 


Looks like another snatching mr cockup from the jaws of victory again.

As far as compared to previous KJ albums, I thought it was sharper than the last four. Not as muddy or as thudding as KJ2003 or Hosannas, and a little sharper than the AD tracks I sampled a few days ago. I was actually glad they didn't mute it so heavily in pursuit of 'heaviness'. Jaz's vocals sound better than they have in a while too, and pretty clear.
