  • Album of the Week: Deerhoof's La Isla Bonita
    Album Of The Week: Deerhoof’s La Isla Bonita Believe it or not, there are a few bands that have been around for a while that I have yet to take a dive into. One of those bands are San Francisco noise pop punk act Deerhoof, and their new album La Isla Bonita has shown me exactly what I’ve been missing. One of those bands that have managed to stick around since the mid-90s, the variety of sounds and dimensions in each track off of the album is jaw dropping. One moment it sounds like a psychedelic j- pop song and then unpredictably these crunchy rigid guitars come in and obliterate everything. So many influences and styles being showcased in one sound, Deerhoof’s new release is simply amazing with its stunning originality. The album was produced by former music journalist & ex-Mr. Dream drummer Nick Sylvester. For a band that has gained acclaim for being extremely DIY for self-producing their previous albums and self- managing, at first glance it could sound like a risk to make a departure from the norm with a different producer. Sylvester excels with excellent quality, and I also can’t get enough of Greg Saunier’s skills on drums. For all of this polish you might be thinking of, don’t fret. There are a good amount of ear- splitting riff rockers on La Isla Bonita as well. It’s November, which means it’s getting cold and one of your friends is already complaining about it. One thing you shouldn’t complain about are the top tracks off of my Album Of The Week.

  • Dennis Morris: Pil - First Issue to Metal Box 23 March - 15 May 2016 ICA Fox Reading Room
    ICA For immediate release: 13 January 2016 Dennis Morris: PiL - First Issue to Metal Box 23 March - 15 May 2016 ICA Fox Reading Room Album cover image from PiL’s first album Public Image: First Issue (1978). © Dennis Morris – all rights reserved. The ICA presents rarely seen photographs and ephemera relating to the early stages of the band Public Image Ltd’s (PiL) design from 1978-79 with a focus on the design of the album Metal Box. Original band members included John Lydon (aka Johnny Rotten - vocals), Keith Levene (lead guitar), Jah Wobble (bass) and Jim Walker (drums). Working closely with photographer and designer Dennis Morris, the display explores the evolution of the band’s identity, from their influential journey to Jamaica in 1978 to the design of the iconic Metal Box. Set against a backdrop of political and social upheaval in the UK, the years 1978-79 marked a period that hailed the end of the Sex Pistols and the subsequent shift from Punk to New Wave. Morris sought to capture this era by creating a strong visual identity for the band. His subsequent designs further aligned PiL with a style and attitude that announced a new chapter in music history. For PiL’s debut single Public Image, Morris designed a record sleeve in the format of a single folded sheet of tabloid newspaper featuring fictional content about the band. His unique approach to design was further illustrated by the debut PiL album, Public Image: First Issue (1978). In a very un-Punk manner, its cover and sleeve design imitated the layout of popular glossy magazines.

    remembrance ni Lavender blooms at this time of year at Bouzincourt Ridge Cemetery this time of year RAF WW2 veteran enabled The Ports to do the double Jim Kerr was educated at the Model Primary School, Enniskillen and at Portora Royal. His first job was as an Page 1 accounts clerk with the local firm of T.P. Topping. When war broke out, Jim and six of his friends didn’t follow the deep-rooted Fermanagh tradition of joining the Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers or the Royal Inniskilling Dragoon Guards – they plumped instead for the RAF, where he served from 1940 until he was demobbed in 1947. After training in England, Jim was posted to the Middle East and Africa. The ship convoy taking him to his posting in North Africa with the Germans in command of the Mediterranean, and an ever-present threat of U-boats, had to sail round South Africa to the Suez Canal. As a leading aircraftman, he was stationed in Alexandria and Egypt, and they were involved in various battles, until the war ended. His service continued back home in Aldergrove and dismantling the flying boats back in Killadeas, Fermanagh. He ended his RAF service in France. Jim had sad memories of the war, losing many friends in action, and he vividly remembered the day when he witnessed an RAF transport plane crash at Lydda Airport, with the loss of 150 souls. After the war, Jim Kerr took up employment as a clerical officer in the Fermanagh County Surveyor’s Office in Enniskillen. With his typically caring attitude, he involved himself in voluntary welfare work in the area, with ex-service personnel.

  • 1. Historia 2. Carrera Musical
    Queen Banda de rock británica formada por Freddie Mercury (voz), Brian May (guitarra), Roger Taylor (batería) y John Deacon (bajo). El grupo gozó de gran fama a finales de los setenta y durante toda la década de los ochenta, y sus discos fueron superventas incluso después del fallecimiento en 1991 de Freddie Mercury, víctima del SIDA. 1. Historia 1.1. Orígenes Sus orígenes se remontan al inicio de los sesenta, cuando el joven guitarrista Brian Harold May (nacido en 1947) comenzó a tocar en un grupo semiprofesional llamado 1984. Brian, experto conocedor de varios instrumentos de cuerda, diseñaba incluso sus propias guitarras, conocidas posteriormente como el modelo Red Special. Brian May pasó después a formar parte de otra banda, llamada Smile, con la que editó un single. Inesperadamente, Tim Stafell, el cantante de la banda, abandonó el grupo; para buscar su sustituto, los miembros de Smile decidieron hacer una prueba al cantante de Sour Milk Sea, que no era otro que Freddie Mercury, y fue rápidamente admitido. 1.2. Freddy Por aquel entonces Freddie Mercury ya estaba acostumbrado a aparecer en público y sobre el escenario con vestimentas llamativas y atrevidas. Freddie contaba con una prodigiosa voz y sobrados conocimientos de piano. A esto se unió una base rítmica firmada por John Richard Deacon (nacido en 1951) al bajo y la batería de Roger Meadows Taylor (nacido en 1949). 2. Carrera musical 2.1. Primer trabajo El grupo comenzó a grabar maquetas y la compañía discográfica EMI, después de verlos actuar en el Marquee de Londres, se interesó por ellos.

  • WRCU 2/10 ROTATIONS RIYL = Recommended If You Like
    WRCU 2/10 ROTATIONS RIYL = Recommended If You Like Alone, Omen 3 by King Krule RIYL: Cosmo Pyke, Ariel Pink The chameleonic singer-songwriter is gearing up for the February 21st release of his next album, Man Alive!, with single "Alone, Omen 3", which displays elements of both the stark, rough-shod post-punk of his first record, 6 Feet Beneath the Moon, and the more eclectic art pop leanings of his second, The OOZ. But "Alone, Omen 3" also hints at a new, psychedelically inclined direction for Marshall, featuring a more understated vocal performance and a woozy, meditative tone. By Colin Jones Run by Joji RIYL: James Blake, Rejjie Snow George Kusunoki Miller began his online career as Filthy Frank (a sketch comedy act), transitioned to Pink Guy (a comedy rapper), and finally realized his full musical form as Joji, the lo-fi hip hop artist inspired by Donald Glover and influenced by electronic and R&B music. On “Run,” a haunting, mysterious electric guitar snakes its way through the song supported by heartbreaking lyrics. Imagine you’re driving along a coastal highway, top-down, feeling the wind, letting the song’s words wash over you, and thinking of your last great love...all while wearing a bad-ass, black leather jacket. That’s what this song is like. By Chase Garvey-Daniels Shangri-La by EOB RIYL: Radiohead, The Postal Service Shangri-la is one of three singles released ahead of Radiohead frontman Edward O'Brien’s upcoming album, which will be called “Earth”. This is O’Brien’s debut album as a solo artist, marking the end of (or at least a break from) his 20+ years with Radiohead.
