  • ADAM and the ANTS Adam and the Ants Were Formed in 1977 in London, England
    ADAM AND THE ANTS Adam and the Ants were formed in 1977 in London, England. They existed in two incarnations. One of which lasted from 1977 until 1982 known as The Ants. This was considered their Punk era. The second incarnation known as Adam and the Ants also featured Adam Ant on vocals, but the rest of the band changed quite frequently. This would mark their shift to new wave/post-punk. They would release ten studio albums and twenty-five singles. Their hits include Stand and Deliver, Antmusic, Antrap, Prince Charming, and Kings of the Wild Frontier. A large part of their identity was the uniform Adam Ant wore on stage that consisted of blue and gold material as well as his sophisticated and dramatic stage presence. Click the band name above. ECHO AND THE BUNNYMEN Formed in Liverpool, England in 1978 post-punk/new wave band Echo and the Bunnymen consisted of Ian McCulloch (vocals, guitar), Will Sergeant (guitar), Les Pattinson (bass), and Pete de Freitas (drums). They produced thirteen studio albums and thirty singles. Their debut album Crocodiles would make it to the top twenty list in the UK. Some of their hits include Killing Moon, Bring on the Dancing Horses, The Cutter, Rescue, Back of Love, and Lips Like Sugar. A very large part of their identity was silohuettes. Their music videos and album covers often included silohuettes of the band. They also have somewhat dark undertones to their music that are conveyed through the design. Click the band name above. THE CLASH Formed in London, England in 1976, The Clash were a punk rock group consisting of Joe Strummer (vocals, guitar), Mick Jones (vocals, guitar), Paul Simonon (bass), and Topper Headon (drums).

  • The Pretenders Make First-Ever Appearance on Austin City Limits Hit-Filled Hour with Rock Legends Premieres October 14 On
    The Pretenders Make First-Ever Appearance on Austin City Limits Hit-Filled Hour with Rock Legends Premieres October 14 on PBS Austin, TX—October 9, 2017—Austin City Limits (ACL) Season 43 rocks on with a hit-filled hour starring the great Pretenders in their first-ever appearance on the ACL stage. The legendary rock band sends a message of love to viewers with an eleven-song hit parade in a brand new installment premiering Saturday, October 14 at 9pm ET/8pm CT. The program airs weekly on PBS stations nationwide (check local listings for times) and full episodes are made available online for a limited time at pbs.org/austincitylimits immediately following the initial broadcast. Viewers can visit acltv.com for news regarding future tapings, episode schedules and select live stream updates. The show's official hashtag is #acltv. Influential punk new-wave veterans the Pretenders are in fighting form as they kick off an electrifying hour with a new classic,“Alone”, a swagger-fueled gem that fits right into the band’s canon, the title track from their first album in almost a decade. Iconic bandleader Chrissie Hynde informs the crowd, “You don’t have to be polite, because we don’t plan to be.” The defiant frontwoman commands the stage, showcasing her still-radiant voice in a career- spanning performance featuring fan-favorites including “Back On The Chain Gang,” “My City Was Gone,” “Mystery Achievement,” and “Middle of the Road”. Pretenders’ trademark tough and tender lyrics resonate as they did when the band arrived on the London scene in 1978.

  • THE COSTELLO SHOW FEATURING MACMANUS Rock De Lux, Núm. 52
    THE COSTELLO SHOW FEATURING MACMANUS Rock de Lux, Núm. 52, mayo, 1989, pgs. 6‐9. Menos que cero, la novela de Bret Easton Ellis que toma su título de la primera canción que sacó Elvis Costello, comienza con Clay, el protagonista, que llega a su casa para pasar unas vacaciones. Entra en su habitación y mira con precaución el póster que está en la pared encima de su cama. Es el póster de Trust, el quinto elepé de Costello. Suspira con alivio o cansancio: no ha cambiado. “Elvis mira hacia la ventana con esa sonrisa irónica y torcida en los labios. La palabra “Confianza” revolotea por encima de su cabeza, y sus gafas de sol, un cristal rojo, el otro azul, están caídas hacia la punta de su nariz, de modo que se le ven los ojos que están ligeramente desviados.” Ahora, acaba de aparecer Spike The Beloved Entertainer; en su portada, la cara de Costello, dividida nítidamente en dos mitades, una pintada de negro, la otra de blanco, mira con la expresión de quien se está burlando del mundo. Un clavo pende sobre ella. (“Poca gente ha pensado –dice Costello– que Spike es también un verbo”. Y el título del elepé entonces, si se lee todo seguido, ordena que atravesemos con un pincho al querido entertainer.) Puestos todos sus elepés, uno junto a otro como en la página de al lado, aún hay que soportar más miradas maliciosas: desde arriba de sus piernas torcidas en My Aim is True, redoblada por la de la cámara en This Year’s Model, de reojo en Punch the Clock, desde debajo de su corona real en King of America.
