They've opened for them, Crystal Antlers: "Andrew" covered "Rhinoceros" on a tribute album-- even their name could be mistaken for a long-lost Pitchfork's Best New Music - Tracks B-side. Fortunately for Gliss, they seem a lot more in touch with the Smashing Pumpkins' strengths than Billy Corgan does these days. "Morning Light", the opening track from their forthcoming sophomore effort, Devotion Implosion, is firmly rooted in the Siamese Dream era, when Corgan's band struck a fine balance between shoegazer insularity and American arena rock bombast. Predictably, the feedback is molten-- the guitars fed through an untold assortment of pedals and blown amps. The volume alone is nearly enough to carry it, but "Light" also critically maintains momentum, surging forward instead of sinking beneath its own weight. A sycophantic tribute perhaps, but it sure beats anything the Silversun Pickups have dreamt up. MP3:> Gliss: "Morning Light" — Jonathan Garrett most read most recent Phoenix "1901" 8 1. "1901" 2.

"Tunnelvision" While there are more pronounced synths on this preview of their upcoming album, "1901" 7. "Echononecho" sounds like a logical extension of It's Never Been Like That, and is just as smooth and 8. "Now We Can See" spirited and dementedly catchy as any of their best singles. That last record endeared them 9. "Wind Phoenix" to many, and it's worth noting that they don't sound especially daunted by following up their 10. "Lay It Down (The Golden Filter Remix)" last big success. Whatever new touches are added here-- the singeing keyboard chords that 11. "Yeahhh" dominate the first few bars before taking a backseat to that clean guitar, or the percussive 12. "My Girls" marble-down-the-drain echo-- it takes effort to pick them out, as this track is as seamless as 13. "Counterpoint" the top of the peanut butter when you first open the jar. Remember "12:51"? Me neither. 14. "Never Had Nobody Like You" 15. "M.A.G.I.C." 16. "Crabapples" 17. "The Breeze/My Baby Cries" (Kath Bloom cover) 18. "Black Lake" 19. "Catholicked" 20.

Their debut album, Post-Nothing, was originally going to be self-released last fall, but now it's set to come out this spring, in Canada only, on Unfamiliar. "Young Hearts Spark Fire" is just one of the raggedly emotive standouts on the record, young hearts igniting the duo's stripped-down drums-and-guitar setup into an explosive thing, equal parts insolence and grandeur. "We used to dream/ Now we worry about dying," members Brian King and David Prowse cry out, in the kind of doomed-romantic instant quotable we used to get from fellow Canadians the Constantines. The whole song hinges on this contrast between innocence and destruction. It's tuneful and universal enough to have been produced as a radio-ready pop- punk single, but it has the kind of volatile churn you'd expect from a band known to cover Mclusky's "To Hell With Good Intentions", which helps to make all its conflicted emotions sound-- for lack of a less controversial word-- real. "I don't wanna worry about dying/ I just wanna worry about those sunshine girls," Japandroids conclude.

    PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 AND 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2007 Committee: Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Dr. John Makay Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Ron E. Shields Dr. Don McQuarie © 2007 Bradley C. Klypchak All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Between 1984 and 1991, heavy metal became one of the most publicly popular and commercially successful rock music subgenres. The focus of this dissertation is to explore the following research questions: How did the subculture of heavy metal music between 1984 and 1991 evolve and what meanings can be derived from this ongoing process? How did the contextual circumstances surrounding heavy metal music during this period impact the performative choices exhibited by artists, and from a position of retrospection, what lasting significance does this particular era of heavy metal merit today? A textual analysis of metal- related materials fostered the development of themes relating to the selective choices made and performances enacted by metal artists. These themes were then considered in terms of gender, sexuality, race, and age constructions as well as the ongoing negotiations of the metal artist within multiple performative realms. Occurring at the juncture of art and commerce, heavy metal music is a purposeful construction. Metal musicians made performative choices for serving particular aims, be it fame, wealth, or art. These same individuals worked within a greater system of influence. Metal bands were the contracted employees of record labels whose own corporate aims needed to be recognized.

  • Peter Bjorn and John Bio 2019
    PETER BJORN AND JOHN BIOGRAPHY 2019 It's hard to survive in the music business, but Peter Bjorn and John have done that and then some. The Swedish indie-pop trio have been triumphing via their pitch-perfect alchemy of varying sounds and styles for two decades now, and their ninth album Endless Dream is but the latest proof of the unique creative chemistry that Peter Morén, Björn Yttling, and John Eriksson have successfully worked with for so long. Every PB&J album sounds like falling in love with music for the first time, and the deceptively light confections contained on Endless Dream is the trio's latest romance. PB&J's history dates back to Morén meeting Yttling in high school, as the two dipped in and out of bands with others before deciding to get serious on their own. After auditioning for drummers, the pair discovered Eriksson in an unlikely bit of luck: "We never thought John would fit the bill because he was a classical percussionist," Morén remembers. "But we started seeing him at Sebadoh and Elliott Smith shows, so we thought maybe he was into pop music as well." The trio's first album, 2002's self-titled debut, was made on the cheap in their apartments with cracked production software that Yttling had acquired: "The recording was pretty quick. We didn't have any money at all," Morén recalls. "It was a very creative and fun period, with no pressure from anyone." 2004's Falling Out was a bit of a more considered affair, including studio time logged with the Hives' producer Pelle Gunnerfeldt.

  • Vaskeægte Girlpower I Lille VEGA Med Dum Dum Girls
    2012-08-23 09:00 CEST Vaskeægte girlpower i Lille VEGA med Dum Dum Girls Vaskeægte girlpower i Lille VEGA med Dum Dum Girls Rummet kommer til at koge over med retro rock ’n roll og girlpower, når de amerikanske tøserockere i Dum Dum Girls, med frontkvinden Dee Dee i spidsen, går på scenen i Lille VEGA mandag den 3. september. Ny ep indspillet i Sune Rose Wagners studie Pige-rockbandet Dum Dum Girls udgiver den 25. september en ny ep, som kommer til at hedde End of Daze. Og har man svært ved at vente med at lytte til den nye udgivelse, kan man downloade den første single ”Lord Knows” på bandets hjemmeside. På trods af at sangene på End of Daze er skrevet med over et halvt års mellemrum, passer de perfekt sammen, så der sker en naturlig udvikling på ep’en. Dette fortæller sangskriver Dee Dee i et seværdigt festival-interview, hvor hun også taler om, hvordan det er at spille sangene live. Se det HER. I forbindelse med indspilningen af deres nye ep har de amerikanske retrorockere været en tur i danske Sune Rose Wagners studie. Det er da heller ikke første gang, at den kvindelig kvartet er blevet sammenlignet med The Raveonettes, så det skal blive spændende at høre, hvad samarbejdet har resulteret i. Klassiske rocktøser Det seneste fuldlængde-album fra Dum Dum Girls, Only in Dreams, udkom i september sidste år, og på alle albummets 10 sange kører bandet den klassiske rockstil. Se blandt andet musikvideoen til ”Bedroom Eyes”. Alle numre på Only in Dreams er for rockgruppens sangskriver Dee Dee personlige, og selvom Dum Dum Girls spiller rock ’n roll, byder de også på et par ballader.

La Brea Avenue ∙ Los Angeles, CA 90036 ∙ Tel (323) 938-5222 ∙ www.jackrutbergfinearts.com FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Jack Rutberg (323) 938-5222 [email protected] June 13 – September 30, 2015 Reflections Through Time Los Angeles, CA – Celebrated L.A. contemporary artist Ruth Weisberg is the subject of a new exhibition entitled “Ruth Weisberg: Reflections Through Time,” opening with a reception for the artist from 6:00 to 9:00 p.m. on Saturday, June 13, at Jack Rutberg Fine Arts, located at 357 North La Brea Avenue in Los Angeles. The exhibition extends through September 30. “Ruth Weisberg: Reflections Through Time” expands upon the recent Weisberg exhibition at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, presented on the occasion of receiving the prestigious 2015 Printmaker Emeritus Award from the Southern Graphics Council, the largest international body of “Waterbourne,” 1973, Lithograph, 30 1/4 x 42 1/4 Inches printmakers in North America. (The SGC’s previous awardee, in 2014, was Wayne Thiebaud.) Included in “Reflections Through Time” are selected works, such as Weisberg’s iconic “Waterbourne” (1973). Here the artist joins both symbolic and literal reflections of light, and in this case, a personal passage of impending motherhood and the emergence of woman. Other works in the exhibition, including her most recent work “Harbor” (2015), engage reflections on personal history and of the convergence of art history and cultural experience. “Reflections Through Time” reveals Weisberg’s decades-long interest in re-imagining the works of past masters such as Velazquez, Watteau, Blake, Titian, Veronese, Cagnacci, Corot, and Giacometti.

    Ramón Rodríguez (The New Raemon / Madee) Escoger un álbum para contar una historia es tan sacrificado como creer en el amor perdurable. Tan solo una portada ilustra este relato, pero sería injusto no reconocer que en realidad he pensado en dos referencias para escribirlo. No me siento del todo culpable, ya que Archers of Loaf vs The Greatest of All Time es un EP. Sunny Day Real Estate, Sunny Day Real Estate (Sub Pop, 1995) Un día soleado Jamás he tenido intención de contratar los servicios de una vidente, pero si en 1992 una bruja llega a decirme que en diez años estaría comiendo un croissant en el cuartel general de Sub Pop, uno de mis sellos preferidos, no habría creído una sola palabra. Eso mismo pensé mientras desayunaba con Shawn Rogers en las oficinas de Sub Pop, en Seattle. Shawn era el mánager de Crooked Fingers, el proyecto en solitario de Eric Bachmann tras la disolución Archers of Loaf, y Archers of Loaf —eran y siguen siendo— mi grupo de rock predilecto de los noventa. Shawn dejó en la mesa su taza de café. Mientras yo trataba de masticar aquel croissant que acababa de ofrecerme, lanzó una pregunta que tardé bastante en contestar. —¿Te apetece cenar con Eric y conmigo mañana? El Eric de la pregunta no era otro que Eric Bachmann, y la propuesta de Shawn era un bonito gesto a modo de mano tendida. 72 Ramón Rodríguez Crucé por primera vez el charco en 2002 con la intención de conseguir licencias para Cydonia, el sello discográfico que fundé en 2001 para publicar los discos de Madee y otros artistas nacionales e internacionales.

  • FUCKED up Glass Boys
    FUCKED UP Glass Boys Fucked Up are a punk band. They were a punk band when they started in Toronto more than a decade ago, and they've remained a punk band even as they've ascended to career heights that their younger selves never could've imagined. But how do you remain a punk band when you're on magazine covers, or sharing stadium stages with the Foo Fighters? How do you stay true to your 15- year-old self when you've got a career to maintain, and families to support? Those are the questions that Fucked Up asks on Glass Boys. And they ask those questions in the form of a blazing, titanic, ultimately triumphant rock album. The last two Fucked Up albums were sweeping, defining, monolithic gestures. On 2008's The Chemistry Of Common Life, they tested hardcore's capacity for stylistic innovation, for seven- minute songs and unconventional arrangements, and they won Canada's prestigious Polaris Music Prize in the process. With 2011's David Comes To Life, they offered up a full-blown rock opera, coming with one larger-than-life hook after another, and that made them even bigger, and further away from the Toronto hardcore scene that nurtured them. Glass Boys isn't a retrenchment or a back-to-basics move; it's too ambitious and complex for that. But after those last two albums, it's tight and concise and direct, an album of real and direct sentiment rather than artifice. Musically, Glass Boys carries echoes of some of the more ragged and adventurous bands from America's punk past (Husker Du, Dinosaur Jr.), but it also has some of the anthemic charge of the Who and the guttural intensity of Negative Approach.
