Im starting to get quite a collection of odd stuff (toys art stuff) myself now...but I have to order it on the net.

I find lots of cool stuff at antique stores though.
especially in london.

I actually found that mouse they mentioned in the book, the one that says " Ill drink to that!" I thought it soun ded really cool so I searched a bit on the net and got me one :) it was a really cool warner brothers piece from the early 70s.

and I have started and extensive squirell collection.
lots of kitshcy statues.

I have always collected stuff.

earlier I collected a lot of antiqes from asia, egypt etc
and toys.
I also collected pez figures but threw them all out after getting tired of them.
But I have started collecting them again.
Soon there wont be more room for pez figures on my desk, hehe.

I also collect books, paintings and other artwork.

and bad jokes :P

Detailed info from the A.T. website:

Fucking AWESOME. Jello and the Melvins #2. Buy It.

What, you need more reasons? Jello Biafra and the Melvins are musical pranksters united for a common cause - to detonate your brain with some of the most twisted rock anthems ever crafted!

Starting off album #2 with a heavier-than-life version of the Alice Cooper cult classic, "Halo of Flies," an intricate tune that alternately slithers and crushes, the band then proceed to treat us to a completely different extended take of their tune "The Lighter Side of Global Terrorism" (Jello's Hawkwind influence showed through when he asked the Melvins to create a take on the song similar to their cover of "Youth of America" by The Wipers). With the first two harrowing tracks clocking in at over fifteen minutes -this is not what you'd expect from a Jello record - steering into a more Melvinoid direction, but remaining distinctly separate from anything easily definable - far from a mishmash or outtakes collection, even the Jelvins were surprised at how well Sieg Howdy! flowed as an album.

Through the course of the album the band (yes, they sound like a proper band, not a "project!") erupts with colors of its respective players in turns. Biafra's spleen-venting rants "Voted off the Island" and "Those Dumb Punk Kids (Will Buy Anything)" are amongst his most acerbic (not to mention insightful!), and the Melvins' cathartic drum and guitar workouts pummel brilliantly through "Lessons in What Not to Become" and the septic all bass-chug of Kevin Rutmanis (making his final appearance on vinyl with the Melvins on this album) and Buzzo that anchors "Wholly Buy Bull."

Of course, the cherry on top is Jello and the lads ripping through a new, updated version of "Kalifornia

I have just ordered it! Has anyone found any samples or anything yet??

norecess

Aloha Klump. I was just wondering, since you also live in Europe don't you think it's too expensive to order a single CD  since the shipping costs can be as high as the prics of the CD itself? Shipping costs at Southern Lord for example amount about 13 euro!

What an overcharge, i've sent a cd or two in the jewel case to friends in Europe for a few bucks airmail.
