Final (hopefully) MTV clarifications : The number is toll free, being an 800 number, so it won't cost you anything to vote. In my previous letter (as someone kindly pointed out), I forgot to include time-zone info. The time to vote is Wednesday, April 16 between : 11:00am - noon EST 10:00am - 11:00 am CENTRAL 8:00am - 9:00 am PST 4AD news (culled from the latest Abstract Magazine, some of this was mentioned in an earlier digest from another source) : Coming this year are : "Victoria Land" - By the Cocteau Twins, although only Robin and Liz actually contribute. The album is mostly vocal and acoustic music. Earmarked for release sometime this month. The Cocteaus will also be recording an album by the full group for later in the year. Colourbox are in the studio, with an EP due later this month (!). Wolfgang Press and Dif Juz are each also working on new albums to be released this year, and a compilation of all of the bands on 4AD, featuring original tunes from each is in the works, and will be backed up by the first 4AD video. Finally, most of the 4AD back catalogue (including all of the Cocteau Twins Lp's, Colourbox, and Dead Can Dance) will be released on CD over the course of the year. Art Of Noise : The new Art Of Noise LP is out domestically (or will be within a couple of weeks, if the copy we got at the station was an advance release). It's called "In Visible Silence", and features 11 tracks including the two singles, "Legs" and "Peter Gunn". I'll post a review when I've had a chance to listen to it carefully (probably by this weekend). Laurie Anderson : There is a new LP by Ms. Anderson, called "Home of the Brave", the soundtrack to her new film. I don't know the release date of the film yet, but I imagine that it will be any day now. I'll review the LP when I get a copy. (The station only has the single, so far, and I haven't seen either the LP or the single at my local record store yet). -Peter Lee Fuligin%umass.bitnet@wiscvm.arpa
