thank you for your DVD program, i have learned more about Boyd Rice and
Douglas P. than i EVER knew, and that's a good thing. i have a new,
increased respect for both of them.
i wish i could do more than purchase one DVD, but i'm really overextended
now.
thanks for all you do, Brainwashed has been a pivotal resource for me over
the years.
Thanks for the feedback. It seems a lot of people are overextended these days!

It's too dificult to get into the podcast if u arenot using itunes........ And theres no history, so.... I've got to collect my podcasts every week and store them....
Welll, long life to Brainwashed, the most interesting label (and why not, musical information website) I ever known...

I would appreciate Jonathan Dean's email. He (or you if it is you) is a complete moron. If he writes such stupid crap about people struggling to make music - and working will little kids so they can - he ought to be able to take whatever he dishes out. Making this music to cash in? Outsider music? Untalented 5 year old kids who don't sound like million dollar big label budgets? What an idiot.
Moreover, if you are not this idiot, given that there is virtually no magazine or even internet magazine that will cover this kind of work, why must you rely on morons without ears or knowledge to review people's work? Can't you find people who either know about music or its context? Musicians can't ask people to like what they do, but this jerkoff is way beyond that.
Tell you what: since you are obviously upset, go ahead and just reply
to this message and let the expletives fly. Say whatever you want.
When I see the message pop up in my Inbox, I will simply delete it
without reading it. That way you will get some much-needed catharsis,
and I can get on with my day.
Read my review carefully and make sure you really have an objection to
it before going around the bend calling total strangers names like
"moron" and "jerkoff." The review was a sincere piece of writing by
someone who knows quite a bit about music, and about your past work.
It was a well-considered review, and I tried to be as diplomatic as
possible, but it was impossible to give this CD a positive review.
This is just an opinion, not the final word. We provided brief track
excerpts and a link to your site, so people can make up their own
minds. This is probably more publicity than the project deserved, in
my opinion.
A tip for the future: if you don't want bad reviews, don't send out
promos of your work. If you don't want people to view your work
critically, try not to put disingenuous quotes on the promo sheet that
claim that this or that song is "the best song ever."
And, anyway, shouldn't the kids be writing me to complain, Dave? I
mean, you do claim that they wrote and performed all of the tracks on
the album, don't you? This is another thing that made is easy to pick
on you; the fact that the album was credited to someone who admittedly
didn't write or perform any of the tracks. Sound a bit like
exploitation?

Are all the Eye DVD volumes in print available?
I'm a little confused by the sequence of the catalog numbers.
Are there any price breaks on ordering the whole set?
1. yes they're available
2. the break in the numbers is sort of an odd thing - volume 04, 05, 08, 09, and 11 were made but not all of the artists have confirmed approval of the volumes being issued, so they're indefinitely shelved. volume 10 was included with the first 50 copies of the BRAIN010 7". volume 834 and 032 were special somehow so they got special catalogue numbers! maybe one day the gaps will be filled.
3. no, sorry, they're all used to raise funds for operational costs of brainwashed and things like that.
thanks for your interest!
