Thenerve February 2004.Pdf IInnarnnardsds Band Slut of the month! Cover Story What is your stage name and where are you based? It’s Blind Marc or Blark. I’m based in Victoria BC. How many musical outfits are you currently whoring around with? Four right now: Betty Ford (Drums), The Shivs (Vocals), Keg Killers (Drums), The Bloody Hells (Drums), Dayglo Abortions (U.S. Tour Drummer). How do you keep all your bands separate? I pretty much separate them by the music style. They’re all punk, but slightly different. The Shivs is more hardcore, while Betty Ford is a street punk thing. Keg Killers is more of a 70’s style rock ‘n’ roll punk. Not too sure about the Bloody Hells yet, since I just joined. How often do you fall off the stage? photo: Laura Murray Well, The Shivs haven’t played a show in lind Marc (Marc Hlady) has become a awhile, so not lately...

The band serves up a supercharged concoction of garage rock mixed with a splash of soul, rhythm & blues, and country. They’ve been described as “the Fleshtones on sangria,” but you can also hear influences like the Pogues and Chuck Berry. They’ve played with bands like the Sonics, Mudhoney, Southern Culture on the Skids, the Meanies, Roy Loney, and soon they will embark on a tour of France and Italy. Watch video on YouTube here The group is known for their high octane, beer soaked, anything could happen style of live performances, especially from frontman Rafa Suñén. In 2012 they broke the stage at Boogie Festival after inviting more than 60 members of the audience up to dance with them. Now that's a serious 'Rockpile!

  • Strapping Young Lad
    THE DAYGLO’S AUSSIE TOUR #3 APRIL/MAY 2005 - ABSOLUTELY FREE PUNK, HARDCORE & METAL - THE SCUM ALSO RISES STRAPPING YOUNG LAD and shitloads more! ABSOLUTE EDITORIAL Absolute Editorial #3 Things are coming together nicely for us here at Absolute Underground. This is starting go be fun! We’re getting into a few free shows and people are starting to send in CD’s for us to review. We’ve got a lot of new people pitching in to make this rag better than ever. Emily Kendy joins us from Vancouver and brings with her a very impressive resume (The Nerve, Discorder, Terminal City, Exclaim...). We’ll be featuring a different Vancouver based band each issue starting with scum punks the Excessives. With the new Arena and Rod Stewart having played Victoria, you can just feel that this is going to be a great year for live music around town. I’m always impressed with the turnout and energy of the younger crowds at the all-ages shows. Even if you’re old you should go check one out sometime. You might find it invigorating to jump in a circle pit of mohawked fury. It was great hanging out with the crew at Spitfire Tattoo special thanks to Rick and Amanda. Electric Frankenstein was an amazing show and just proves that Victoria gets wicked shows all the time. A big middle finger to the asshole bouncers @ Diego’s who wouldn’t let me in even though I was on the guest list and then proceeded to tell the headlining act CHOKE to “pack their shit, they weren’t going to play.” This was after two huge idiots working the door beat up CHOKE’s drummer who weighs about a buck ten soaking wet.

  • THE KNOCKOUTS Turnérar Med BRIAN SETZER
    2011-05-26 17:08 CEST THE KNOCKOUTS turnérar med BRIAN SETZER THE KNOCKOUTS ska i sommar supporta Brian Setzer, bl a grundare och frontfigur i legendariska STRAY CATS, när han drar igenom Europa med sitt Brian Setzer's Rockabilly Riot. Setzer har blivit Grammynominerad hela sju gånger (varav han vann tre). Han gav rockabilly ett nytt ansikte på 80-talet då STRAY CATS framgångar var gigantiska världen över. På senare år har han även gett swing och storband ett uppswing med sitt välkända och maffiga Brian Setzer Orchestra, samt en mängd framgångsrika soloalbum. THE KNOCKOUTS börjar med att dela scen med Setzer på självaste premiärdatumet i Spanien på den stora, beryktade rockfestivalen Azkena Rock. Sen sammanstrålar de igen och följs åt under alla turnédatum i Skandinavien och avslutar spektakulärt i Helsinki Icehall (Jäähalli) som har en kapacitet på inte mindre än 8200 personer. (Fler datum kan tillkomma.) Se alla hittills satta datum nedan: Jun 25 2011, Azkena Rock Festival - VITORIA-GASTEIZ, Spanien Jul 19 2011, Stora Vega - COPENHAGEN, Danmark Jul 20 2011, Münchenbryggeriet - STOCKHOLM, Sverige Jul 22 2011, Helsinki Icehall (Jäähalli) - HELSINGFORS, Finland THE KNOCKOUTS sångare/gitarrist Johan Frandsen, som för övrigt är med i en två sidor lång intervju i senaste numret av FUZZ (nr 4), Skandinaviens största gitarrtidning, kommenterade nyheten: ”Utan Brian Setzer hade jag varken börjat spela gitarr eller startat THE KNOCKOUTS. Det känns som en milstolpe att åter igen spela med medlemmar ifrån STRAY CATS.” GRETSCH Guitars, Fender och mytomspunna TV Jones är stolta sponsorer till så väl Johan Frandsen som till Brian Setzer. THE KNOCKOUTS knep också nyligen trofén för Årets Bästa Punk-Album i omtalade och högaktade American Independent Music Awards! De blev dessutom nummer 11 på Slitz lista över de 100 svenska bästa banden THE KNOCKOUTS trollbinder publik över hela världen, i alla åldrar och genrer.
