  • Built to Spill (Us)
    2006-12-15 13:14 CET BUILT TO SPILL (US) BUILT TO SPILL (US) 9 maj – Malmö, KB 10 maj – Stockholm, Debaser Medis - KÖP BILJETT 12 maj – Göteborg, Sticky Fingers (Top Floor) När Doug Martsch bildade amerikanska indierockbandet Built To Spill i Boise, Idaho 1992 var hans intention att skapa ett projekt där medlemmarna inte var statiska, utan där bytet av dem skulle vara poängen. Bandet reinkarneras emellanåt med nytt blod och det enda man kan veta med säkerhet är att Doug Martsch självfallet kommer vara med och att det fortfarande är otroligt bra, oavsett övrig konstellation. Built To Spill förlitar sig i högre grad på bra kemi mellan medlemmarna än låtskrivande, även om de skriver som om de vore födda att göra just detta. Det är dessa ingredienser som bidrar till deras rent overkliga förmåga att förnya sig i sin musik gång på gång. Efter ett långt uppehåll i skivsläppandet, ända sedan redan klassiska ”Ancient Melodies of the Future” som kom ut 2001 är Built To Spill tillbaka med albumet ”You In Reverse” (Warner) som är det mest samspelta, inspirerade material detta extraordinära band någonsin visat upp. Nya skivan är beviset på bandets kaotiska men eleganta evolution där en viktig detalj denna gång är strävan efter en genuin 60-tals produktion. Det går att höra Neil Young och Pavement i Built To Spill, men de är i första hand starkt influerade av J Mascis tunga, melodiska gitarriff i Dinosaur Jr. Nu är även Brett Netson tillbaka i bandet som deras nyblivne femte medlem och hans avtryck på spår som ”Just A Habit” på nya skivan, där ett härdsmältande gitarrsolo skyltar med hans återkomst, är makalöst.

Protesters rushed the hallways of buildings with megaphones, calling fellow students to join in. Students and facul- ty held a rally in the Peace Garden, sharing personal stories of hardships they faced in response to budget cuts at the university. At noon, an estimated 400 activists marched through the heart of the campus, spanning from McKee Fisk to the Music Building. The protest finished at the Henry Madden Library, where more than 80 activists staged a sit-in at the Haak Center, demanding to speak with university President John D. Welty. Eventually, Welty appeared at the Haak Center to listen to the group. He agreed to set up a meeting with students, scheduled for Nov. 3.
