"Swastika Girls" is side 2 of "No Pussyfooting" (1973) but
the Between Sets CD I'm featuring this week at the Ping
is actually "Evening Star" - therefore "An Index Of Metals"
is on side 2. I hadn't played "Index" for quite a while
and when listening to it this afternoon, while working
on the Ping update, found it much less nasty and
dark than I had remembered. I think my ears are
constantly opening. I'm still not sure I'm ready for
the Merzbow concert coming to Toronto in Sept.
though. Perhaps serious earplugs may help my
enlightenment...

Cheers,
