einsturzende neubauten - "ich komme davon" (the jewels)

And that vision happens to include reshaping the way the audience and the artist interact. Their last album, Alles Wieder Offen, was funded by fan subscriptions, and this album actually started its life as bonus material for said subscribers. And while the Neubauten website still makes no reference to this album as a physical unit (only as a digital download), it does document its release, track-by-track, between March 2006 and February 2007. Unlike the songs on Alles, which was deliberately worked on and revised over that same span, those collected in The Jewels were all made quickly, in a day or two at most. And, in the grand tradition of Brian Eno, they built each track around the results of a card game based on neglected ideas from previous albums. Each band member would take a couple cards, grab an instrument or instruments (defined as loosely as possible, in that way only they can) and start playing. The remarkable part is that, when you listen to it, there is no hint of its diverse origins. The album is that coherent.
The material itself is, unsurprisingly, pretty close to that of Alles, just with a little less menace. Don’t get me wrong, it’s nearly impossible for Neubauten to not be menacing or imposing, but the eerie factor seems to be ratcheted down just a tad. There are still plenty of moments of dark ambience, crashing metal and rustling construction supplies, like the horror film clamor of “Mei Ro” and “Die Libellen,” but they are mere elements of songs, balanced out by snatches of melody, almost-calming drones, and a sense of pacing that makes them feel almost natural. Plus they are joined by the lovely melodicism of “Ich Komme Davon,” “Jeder Satz mit Ihr Hallt Nach,” and “Am I Only Jesus?” and the call-and-response of “Magyar Energia,” which at least partially subvert any menace hidden in the background. And “Epharisto” is about as close as Neubauten gets to Tom Waits, with its limping groove, off-kitler guitar and Bargeld’s random vocal interjections. The songs are all relatively short for recent Neubauten material - the average length is just over 2 minutes - so there is little space for the sweeping builds and flowing forms that characterize so much of their output. In a way, this album ends up occupying a space half-way in the early ’80s and half-way in the present. It almost makes for a great summation of what Bargeld and Co. are all about.
What’s really fascinating is that, while Neubauten doesn’t have the immediate rock’n’roll punch of recent Nick Cave, both groups seem to be starting from the same place: noise. As Emerson Dameron says in his review of Dig, Lazarus, Dig!!!, the latest Nick Cave record is also largely built around “scrapes and rattles,” mostly from Warren Ellis. And while it would be impossible to confuse one group for the other, it’s an interesting parallel, and perhaps speaks to why Cave hired Bargeld in the first place.

daily creeper vs night pleasure split 7"

e continuo a postar sobre discos que são dificéis de adquirir.
o split de 7" que une estas duas bandas de columbus, ohio, mostra dois lados diferentes.
night pleasure com um som vibrante, roqueiro, moldados pelas vocalizações berrantes.
grandes riffs com muito feedback de produção zero.
daily creeper parece ser um esquecido génio. powerpop muito doméstico, muito apurado.
um promissor songwriters de guitarrinha cativante.

billy childish is dead - dvd

é um documentário possível do senhor.
e é com todo o respeito que o vemos a falar para a camara enquanto se barbeia, ou quando pratica o seu ioga.
o documento necessário para entender o mais prolífero artista inglês.
este dvd arranja.se na vynil experience, ali no bairro alto.
aqui fica o resumo noutra língua.
This is a great introduction to the work of this multi-talented songwriter, artist and poet. It opens with a conversation over an aborted move project which is a gentle introduction into the nature of Childish's character. The documentary shows him inking woodblock prints as the interviewer asks about his abused past. Childish's responses show the value of the psychotherapy he's received over the years and its easy to see why he's dropped the moniker "Wild Billy Childish" as he offers thoughtful, composed answers. There's plenty of music to pacify the fans of his band's various incarnations suhc as Thee Headcoats, Thee Milkshakes and most recently Musicians of the British Empire. Throughout his dress sense and epic moustache hark back to the Edwardian era and its easy to see why his work will stand the test of time, as opposed to someone like Tracey Emin. Childish will always be remembered for being her one-time boyfriend, though its easy to see where true genius lies!

ideas for muscles - misuse of muscle's appliance (merzbau 0035)

"Ideas For Muscles
Misuse of Muscle's Appliance
De regresso às edições num registo Rock, sem concessões, a Merzbau trazemos-nos o segundo ep de Ideas for Muscles. Duo destrutivo, munido de ritmos programados, vozes em delay, suor rock'n'roll, psicadelismo afro-beat, apresentam neste registo um re-inventar da fórmula apresentada no seu primeiro Fuck the Trainer (edição de autor). O método de trabalho utilizado no registo de estreia baseado em encontrar ordem no caos, é aqui "invertido". Em Misue of Muscles Aplliance o desafio foi destruir a ordem criada pelas composições inicialmente orientadas para o formato "canções". Disco duro, espontâneo e aventuroso."

thunderbirds are now...hoje, amanhã ou em 2002

já com 3 lps e 2 eps desde 2002, foi com a entrada na french kiss records em que ganharam o estatuto. em 2004 com justamustache, chamou a atenção do pessoal da pitchfork.
mas foi em 2002, antes de todas as alterações internas, que gravaram doctor, lawyer, indian chief.
“We live off of pop music,” says singer/guitarist Ryan Allen. “Some Beatles for breakfast, a little Smiths for lunch, and the Pixies for dinner. Sometimes we’ll have a little New Pornographers for a midnight snack.” Further, “making an album full of melodies, actual choruses, songs in major keys… it’s something I think we all grew up with, so it was inevitable that we’d make a record like this. It’s our chance to do right by our influences and by ourselves.”

“We don’t know anything about the game,” they admonish us. “We do know that He-man and She-Ra accidentally make out in one episode. The writer for that episode didn’t know they were brother and sister. We learned about the videogame long after naming the band.” plan b magazine
