Waiting for a miracle, but nothing ever happens...

The Comsat Angels - Land














Awesome, innit? One of my favorite bands ever(ok ok so I have a gazillion fave bands, sue me or else!), which was hugely overseen and exceptionally amazing. The Comsat Angels formed in 1978 in Yorkshire, England, and formally disbanded in 1995. They were powerful, atmospheric, and bleak, owning such thunderous basslines and ethereal guitars. After opening for Pere Ubu and Gang of Four during the 80's, modest reception in the European mainland, and many attempts to evolve their music looking for commercial appeal, they faded into musical dust. Though that doesn't mean that albums like "Sleep No More", "Waiting for a Miracle", and "Fiction" are probably some of the finest post punk albums ever made. Since I couldn't manage to upload the three of them, here I offer a better deal: one little album called "Time Considered as a Helix of Semi-precious Stones", which can be considered as a live compilation of their earlier albums, for it was recorded as a BBC Session by John Peel in 1979.


Enjoy!!! :)
