  • Internationell Artist Till Sommarkonsert I Södertälje Centrum
    Richie Ramone 2018-07-03 06:30 CEST Internationell artist till Sommarkonsert i Södertälje Centrum -"Vi kan med glädje presentera två nya inslag under första sommarkonserten i år. Richie Ramone, Ramoneslegenden och Julia & The Basement Tapes", säger Lena Raattamaa, event och marknadskoordinator på Södertälje Centrumförening och fortsätter. -"Ambitionen har varit att inkludera lokala förmågor i programmet och utöver allsångsledaren Gustav Asplund så har vi nu även Johan Borgh med i programmet" -"Jag tycker sommarkonserterna är ett grymt initiativ och det känns jättekul att äntligen få medverka på en av dem!" säger Johan Borgh. Julia & The Basement Tapes är ett ungt band med rötterna i blues och americana som släppt två EP:s och nu jobbar på debutalbumet. Låtarna skrivs av Julia Tinglöf som även sjunger lead, och Södertäljebördiga Johan Borgh som spelar gitarr och sjunger backup. År 2017 vann de Sveriges största tävling för bluesband, Swedish Blues Challenge, vilket har lett till att de i år är bokade på alla stora bluesfestivaler och även spelar en del runt om i Europa. Bandet har bland annat spelat i Norge, Tyskland och Polen och har även spelningar i Storbritannien bokade i höst. När de kommer till Södertälje är det i en avskalad duo-sättning och det utlovas det bästa från tidigare släpp samt ett par nya osläppta låtar! Den avskalade duon består av sångerska Julia Tinglöf och Johan Borgh. -"Vi tycker det är jättekul att få hit en internationell artist och hoppas Södertäljebor och besökare ser tillfället att skapa ett härligt sommarminne", menar Lena Raattamaa. Riche Ramone är mest känd som medlem i punkbandet Ramones.

  • Rock Album Discography Last Up-Date: September 27Th, 2021
    Rock Album Discography Last up-date: September 27th, 2021 Rock Album Discography “Music was my first love, and it will be my last” was the first line of the virteous song “Music” on the album “Rebel”, which was produced by Alan Parson, sung by John Miles, and released I n 1976. From my point of view, there is no other citation, which more properly expresses the emotional impact of music to human beings. People come and go, but music remains forever, since acoustic waves are not bound to matter like monuments, paintings, or sculptures. In contrast, music as sound in general is transmitted by matter vibrations and can be reproduced independent of space and time. In this way, music is able to connect humans from the earliest high cultures to people of our present societies all over the world. Music is indeed a universal language and likely not restricted to our planetary society. The importance of music to the human society is also underlined by the Voyager mission: Both Voyager spacecrafts, which were launched at August 20th and September 05th, 1977, are bound for the stars, now, after their visits to the outer planets of our solar system (mission status: https://voyager.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/status/). They carry a gold- plated copper phonograph record, which comprises 90 minutes of music selected from all cultures next to sounds, spoken messages, and images from our planet Earth. There is rather little hope that any extraterrestrial form of life will ever come along the Voyager spacecrafts. But if this is yet going to happen they are likely able to understand the sound of music from these records at least.

  • Alt-Nation: Shows to Help You Beat the Winter Blues
    Alt-Nation: Shows to Help You Beat the Winter Blues The Atlantic Thrills –Self Titled (Almost Ready Records) On their debut full-length release, Atlantic Thrills let their retro flag fly proudly from the cover straight down the songs that celebrate the spirits and sound of 60s garage, psychedelic, harmonies and surf guitars. Atlantic Thrills keep the recipe simple as far as basing everything off 60s garage rock and then buttressing the sound by sprinkling in some surf and psychedelic elements to keep the party raging like a boss. Highlights include “Day At The Beach,” which was previously released on a 7-inch last year. It will have you counting days till summer returns the “na na na day at the beach” refrain over a lead surf guitar. On “Acid Rain,” the Thrills take the verse of the Velvet Underground’s “Run Run Run” and rock it into a swirling psych rock tsunami. The psychedelic rock continues on “Light Shines,” which sounds like the bastard of bands like The 13th Floor Elevators and The Yardbirds. You know a band like Atlantic Thrills is on a roll when even their ballads like “Foreign Lands” are fun ditties that make you want to sling your arm around someone’s shoulder and sway in unison. “Holy Mountain” comes off as a stoner punk anthem, and I am not even sure that category exists. The Atlantic Thrills push that psych rock thing a little further on “Blind Lead The Blind” that has this opening tribal backing vocals and reverb drenched guitar. As fantastic as the overall audio sound of the production is, it’s one of the songs that sounds like it would be really cool if I were stoned.

  • AMERICAN SPEEDWAY Ship of Fools Prophase Music Ray Van Horn, Jr
    AMERICAN SPEEDWAY Ship of Fools Prophase Music Ray Van Horn, Jr. Though they hail from Philadelphia, AMERICAN SPEEDWAY sounds almost legitimately Southern it could thus be said they are the North’s answer to NASHVILLE PUSSY. With the aggressive energy of the latter band’s chronically hopping Let Them Eat Pussy album setting a standard for raging punk as interpreted through the bottom of an emptied Jack Daniel’s bottle, AMERICAN SPEEDWAY dips straight into the same hellraiser’s glass neck in relentless pursuit of a heavy-handed and randomly vulgar punk stampede. Undoubtedly Ship of Fools can stand toe-to-toe with Let Them Eat Pussy using the energy gauge alone. Not once does AMERICAN SPEEDWAY let off the steam that drives their manically- strummed rockout session on Ship of Fools. Even rowdier than DIRTY RIG or ARTIMUS PYLEDRIVER, AMERICAN SPEEDWAY throws its yelling, riffing and pounding lines into a roughneck stock car of rock and sends the thing round and round for angular loops as if racing in Pocono. At times coming off like the CIRCLE JERKS on “Far Behind” and TWISTED SISTER on “Cocaine” (think upon the main riffs of “Burn in Hell”) or even later-era RAMONES ( Animal Boy or Halfway to Sanity days) on “No Control,” AMERICAN SPEEDWAY rips and snorts like a brew crew of persistent punk chugging. Heaping just enough pressure upon themselves to keep their pistons grinding on cuts like “Don’t Tread On Me,” “American Speedway,” “One Foot In, One Foot Out” and the loud ‘n proud metal/punk anthem “Make Some Noise,” Ship of Fools is a hellafun beat down with a snaggletooth confederate mentality.
