The dejected tone of so many young songwriters seemed out of context in the late 1990s, when the economy was booming, wars were receding and the world was one huge party. They seemed to reflect a lack of confidence in society, in politics and, ultimately, in life itself. First there was the musician who could claim the title of founder of this school in the old days of the new wave. Mike Gira (2) basically continued the atmospheric work of latter-period Swans. His tortured soul engaged in a form of lugubrious and apocalyptic folk, which constituted, at the same time, a form of cathartic and purgatorial ritual. After his solo album Drainland (1995), which was still, de facto, a Swans album, assisted by Jarboe and Bill Rieflin, Gira split the late Swans sound in two: Body Lovers impersonated the ambient/atmospheric element, while Angels Of Light focused on the orchestral pop element. On the one hand, Gira crafted the sinister and baroque layered instrumental music of Body Lovers' Number One Of Three (1998) and the subliminal musique concrete of Body Haters (1998).

    25th Super Bock Super Rock 18 – 19 – 20 JULY Meco Beach, Sesimbra – South of Lisbon, Portugal New line-up announcement: Cat Power 19 July, Super Bock Stage Cat Power joins Charlotte Gainsbourg, Disclosure, Kaytranada, FKJ, Superorganism, The 1975, Metronomy and Lana Del Rey on Super Bock Super Rock's line-up for its 25th edition. 18-19-20 July Herdade do Cabeço da Flauta, Meco - Sesimbra On July 18, 19 and 20, the Festival with the most authentic music returns to Sesimbra and Meco. With the beach just around the corner and a more informal atmosphere, there’s one thing that always prevails: Music. The proof of that is the strong feminine power that is present in this year’s line-up of Super Bock Super Rock. After announcing Lana Del Rey and Charlotte Gainsbourg, we have the pleasure to reveal another Woman that promises to sweep us off our feet: Cat Power. CAT POWER Charlyn Marie Marshall is Cat Power for the world - a world that has been listening to her songs for over 20 years. Her father was a pianist focused on the blues and her stepfather possessed an enviable record collection. These influences thrilled her into beginning to write her own songs at an early age against the advice of her parents - true music lovers who were conscious of the dangers of her passion… Her first public presentation took place in a Brooklyn pub, sometime between 1992 and 1992, already under the name of Cat Power. And from then on, one of the most interesting paths of the last thirty years in indie music began to be traced.

  • The Ghosts Settle in Almost Immediately on ​Marina​, the First
    The ghosts settle in almost immediately on Marina, the first full­length from New York singer Eddi ​ ​ Front. “Goldie” opens with a low, baleful piano and Front’s vocals plunging like icicles. “Picking out the dress to knock you out,” she sighs, “this will be our last meeting.” It’s a fitting beginning: for the bulk of Marina, Front examines the dark side of human entanglements, cycling through heartache, ​ ​ loneliness and recovery with clarity, poise and humor. “Here’s a lie I wanted to pitch to you,” she mocks in “Play Ball,” "I have room in my heart for all of you.” Marina has the same kind of haunted, noir­ish atmosphere as Cat Power’s Moon Pix and Smog’s ​ ​ ​ Knock Knock; it’s the kind of record where shadows hang across every song, and each creeping lyric ​ feels like the twist of a knife. That’s not accidental – Cat Power was among the records Front picked up while working at a Long Island Tower Records, and she fell in love with Liz Phair’s Girlysound ​ tapes after receiving a copy of them from a college friend. Traces of that spare, spectral approach show up throughout her own work. In fact, when she was first starting out, Front was so beholden to the idea of minimalism, she was resistant to the idea of working with a producer. “I thought it was really unnecessary,” she laughs. “It seemed silly to produce – the songs seemed perfect as they were.” It was producer Dan Chen who opened her eyes. “It finally clicked.” she says.
