Queen “The gods had condemned Sisyphus to ceaselessly rolling a rock to the top of a mountain, whence the stone would fall back of its own weight. They had thought with some reason that there is no more dreadful punishment than futile and hopeless labor.” “I leave Sisyphus at the foot of the mountain! One always finds one's burden again. But Sisyphus teaches the higher fidelity that negates the gods and raises rocks. He too concludes that all is well. This universe henceforth without a master seems to him neither sterile nor futile. Each atom of that stone, each mineral flake of that night filled mountain, in itself forms a world. The struggle itself toward the heights is enough to fill a man's heart. One must imagine Sisyphus happy.” Extracts from “Sisyphus Myth” (1942) by Albert Camus (1913–1960) Sisyphus by Titian (1490–1567) 1548–1549.

    Ne tirez pas sur le guitariste ! Dans les pays de l’Est et ailleurs avec The Irradiates «En route, Le jour assouvi n’est jamais le plus beau jour. Le plus beau jour est un jour de soif. Notre voyage a bien un sens, un but sans doute- mais c’est la route, qui vaut la peine. La meilleure destination c’est le repos d’une nuit, où le feu est allumé et le pain est rompu à la hâte. Dans les endroits où l’on ne dort qu’une fois, le sommeil est confiant, les rêves remplis de chants. En avant, en avant ! Voilà que le jour point, notre grande aventure est sans fin.» Karin Boye «Cette tournée va nous coûter des millions ? Et Alors ? Les millions nous les avons.» Gene Simmons «Clear eyes, full heart, can’t lose!» Eric Taylor Quoi ? Encore des histoires de tournée ? Ils en ont pas marre ces zicos de res- sasser les anecdotes de leur groupe pas franchement notable toujours pour la même la paroisse ? De nature relativement positive, je pense malgré tout que ça reste utile à quelque chose... Ça peut intéresser un peu de monde, bien que la première personne concernée quand on écrit, c’est quand même soi-même, peu importent les motivations. Le moi ! le moi ! le moi !... Encore et toujours ces bonnes vieilles questions d’ego, de nombrils scrutés en permanence, ça tourne en boucle… Pas toujours percutant, j’ai fait de mon mieux pour rendre ce texte agréable. Oui, j’ai passé du temps à l’écrire.

  • In a Time When New Punk Bands Have Less and Less to Say, a Bright Light Shines Across the Pond from Brighton, England
    In a time when new punk bands have less and less to say, a bright light shines across the pond from Brighton, England. The Bar Stool Preachers are bringing back the essence of punk: music with a message. And do we ever need it in our world today! Defying genres, impossible to put in a box, challenging to the best of writers, this is a band you’ll want to interview rather than review. And B.S.P. are ready and waiting for your questions, excited to tell you of their intent, passions, goals and dreams. Whether you want to talk about their volunteer work, the political causes they hold dear to their hearts, or just hear about living in the most exciting and progressive town on the island, these boys are up for it! Although The Bar Stool Preachers are only just beginning as a band, their album is the perfect blend of intelligent punk anthems and poignant, unsentimental love songs, both combined with the most infectious music you’ll hear this decade. “Grazie Governo” (Italian for “Thank You, Government”) exemplifies this, as the tongue-in-cheek title is the first indication that The Bar Stool Preachers are wise beyond their years. But you get a full thirteen songs of hits on this record, no filler, with a different song rising to the top to be ‘your favourite’ on every listen. Yes, this album is that good. From the eclectic scene of punk and ska bands in the UK, The Bar Stool Preachers are a band for EVERYONE – a group of blue collar musicians who can instantly connect with anyone they play for.
