  • Live Among the White Trash: a History of Nono----Manman on Stage
    Live Among the White Trash: A history of nono----manman on stage “There are no No-Man concerts scheduled for the foreseeable future.” (from the official no-man website) Anyone who has followed no-man’s career over the previous ten years or so will be acutely aware that the band does not play live. If no-man “exist” as a band at all – and their infrequent releases mean they are more an ongoing understanding between two men rather than an active unit – it is only in the studio. Over a series of uncompromising albums no-man’s music has become ever more complex, yet ironically, “live sounding” than the release which proceeded it. But this organic “liveness” is mainly an illusion; the feeling of spontaneity often the result of numerous edits and takes which only the precision of studio work can produce. Others have tried to perform equally difficult music live: Radiohead ambitiously thrusting their clicks-and- cuts post-rock upon the world’s stadiums, for example. But for a variety of reasons, no-man simply haven’t tried – at least, not since 1994 and not until a one-off performance in 2006. The only comparable case is Talk Talk’s retreat into the studio in the late 1980s. Both bands have undoubtedly crafted their best work without going near an audience. 1 But it wasn’t always so. no-man were once very much a live act, promoting singles and albums with dates and undertaking two full-blown tours – though they rarely played outside London, never went further north than Newcastle, and never played outside Great Britain.

  • Beyond the Black Are Most Certainly That. You're in Doubt?
    Lost in Forever - LIVE Stratospheric? Beyond The Black are most certainly that. You’re in doubt? Let’s explain… …Only two years ago, dynamic frontwoman and world-class vocalist Jennifer Haben and her band colleagues celebrated their live debut on stage at the legendary Wacken Open Air 2014. A few months later they were supporting the legendary SAXON on their UK tour. On February 13th 2015 the band released their debut full-length album Songs of Love and Death, which hit the German top 20 album charts, and which was produced by melodic metal maestro Sascha Paeth (Avantasia, Edguy, Epica, Kamelot, Rhapsody). You’ve probably already guessed that the album was royally received throughout Europe, with Haben establishing herself as one of the leading voices in hard rock and metal music. Beyond The Black continued to conquer the road. They played their own headliner tour in spring and autumn 2015, and featured at several of Germany’s biggest rock & metal- festivals. Momentum is beautiful thing; Beyond The Black supported Queensrÿche in Holland and Within Temptation in Switzerland, and their incredible ascent culminated in them receiving the “Best Debut Album 2015” Metal Hammer Award.

    Issue 4: Welcoming the black sheep by George Lings – Director of Church Army’s Anglican church led for many years by John Research Unit Simons. (Oddly enough, I know John because we both were called out of work for the Bank of Foundations and calling England into life in the Church of England.) Having made a profession of faith at the age of eight, Mark was later part of the youth group, Mark Broomhead, the founder of The Order of yet also at home in the adult church as a the Black Sheep (TOBS), was born in 1971. member of Deanery Synod. This is one instance Looking back across his life it is not difficult to see of what seems like his effortless ability to the beginnings of the apparently disparate combine unlikely elements as though they were strands that have become connected and entirely natural. significant in what has emerged since 2006. This trait continued, in that from the years eight to 12 he discovered and appreciated the music of the heavy metal band Judas Priest. I admit complete ignorance of this band and genre. That academically dubious yet ubiquitous source of information, Wikipedia, tells me that after inauspicious years since their founding in 1969, Judas Priest made their mark around 1980 and the years immediately following. An album of that time, British Steel, is said to be their long- term best seller. This induction to that overall culture, with attendant dress and patterns of socialising, followed in Mark’s teenage years. It provoked the question, sharper in those days, of whether - let alone how - heavy metal and Christian faith could be combined.

  • A Conversation About King Rocker Between the Quietus, Stewart Lee, Michael Cumming and Robert Lloyd
    No Image: A conversation about King Rocker between the Quietus, Stewart Lee, Michael Cumming and Robert Lloyd. It looks like a music documentary. Look, there’s a famous person [Stewart Lee] walking out of a train station telling viewers where they are and why it’s important. Now they’re telling us what is going on and why we’re here. It feels like a music documentary. And King Rocker, Michael Cumming and Stewart Lee’s film about Robert Lloyd and The Nightingales is one. It’s also not. You’d expect a film by the director of Brass Eye and Toast of London, and the comedian behind some of the most brilliant stand-up ever to come from these shores to be funny and smart but the experience of King Rocker explodes those expectations. It’s not hyperbole to say this is one of the best music documentaries of all time. Hilarious and brilliantly knowing about the form of music documentaries and caustic about the music industry and fame, at its moving heart it’s a wonderful homage to and portrait of a true outsider artist and inspiring comeback story that in the already boiling maelstrom of 2021 feels profoundly necessary. The film follows Stewart Lee and Robert Lloyd as they talk about Lloyd’s life as front-man and creative driver of post-punk favourites The Prefects and latterly The Nightingales. Through a series of funny and insightful conversations as they hunt down a famous 1970s public art sculpture of King Kong that is central to both men’s stories, the pair and assorted friends, acolytes and naysayers including the rest of the band and family members plus Frank Skinner, John Taylor (yep, of Duran Duran), Nigel Slater (!) and Robin Askwith (!!) discuss the past, the ups, the downs and the hazy memories of it all.
