    FKP Scorpio Konzertproduktionen GmbH Große Elbstr. 277 a ∙ 22767 Hamburg Tel. (040) 853 88 888 ∙ www.fkpscorpio.com PRESSEMITTEILUNG 16.04.2019 Sleep im Oktober in Karlsruhe Vor ziemlich genau einem Jahr und ohne jegliche Ankündigung überraschten Sleep die Metal-Welt mit ihrem neuen Album. Quasi aus dem Nichts erschien „The Sciences“, das aus dem sagenumwobenen Stoner-Doom-Legenden ganz aktuelle machte. Die Präzision der Rhythmen, die träge Schwere der Langsamkeit, die Virtuosität der zwischendurch aufscheinenden Gitarren-Soli: Mit einem lauten, krachenden Donnerschlag überbrückten die Kalifornier die 15 Jahre, die seit dem Erscheinen ihrer letzten Platte „Dopesmoker“ vergangen waren. 1990 von drei musikalisch frühreifen Teenagern gegründet aus den Resten der Hardcore-Band Asbestosdeath, machten sich Sänger und Bassist Al Cisneros, Schlagzeuger Chris Hakius und Gitarrist Matt Pike auf, Doom zu revolutionieren. Mit tiefer gestimmten Instrumenten, die über ausschließlich über Röhrenverstärker zu laufen hatten, und einer ebenso tiefer gelegten und verlangsamten Vision von Lärm nahmen sie dieses 63-minütige Doom-Metal-Stoner-Riffrock-Erdbeben-Monster auf – und lösten sich 1998 wegen interner und externer Streitigkeiten um genau dieses Album wieder auf. Doch jetzt sind Sleep wieder da, und die Band aus Oakland kann nicht nur durch die enorme Qualität ihrer Studioarbeit überzeugen. Vor allem live muss man Sleep unbedingt erlebt haben. Das bewiesen die Auftritte im vergangenen Jahr, bei denen das Trio eine dermaßen perfekte, wahrhaft massive, aber auch komplexe und dynamische Klangumgebung geschaffen haben, dass man seinen Ohren kaum traute und damit sich und das Publikum in eine enorm laute Trance spielte. Jetzt haben Sleep bestätigt, dass sie im Oktober für eine exklusive Show nach Karlsruhe kommen.

  • Mægtige Sleep Til Pumpehuset 23. Maj
    2018-02-28 13:06 CET Mægtige Sleep til Pumpehuset 23. maj Sleep i Pumpehuset 23. maj Se video på YouTube her Sleep er velsagtens det ultimative stoner-band - nogensinde. Så er det på plads! Sleep opstod i asken af bandet Asbestosdeath, og udgav i 1991 debuten “Volume One”. Året efter fulgte hvad der i dag betragtes som en af hjørnestenene i stonermetal-genren “Sleep’s Holy Mountain”. En plade der emmer af blueset doom-metal, træge guitarpassager og tekster, der hylder den grønne urt. Bandets næste projekt var det 63-minutter lange mesterværk “Dopesmoker”, som deres daværende pladeselskab desværre ikke havde store nok musikalske visioner til at udgive. Med uforrettet sag og en guldklump af en indspilning gik Sleep i opløsning, og det var ikke før 1999, at “Dopesmoker” blev udgivet i en forkortet version kaldet “Jerusalem”. Heldigvis kom indspilningen til sin ret, da Tee Pee i 2003 udgav “Dopesmoker” i sin fulde længde, og endnu en genudgivelse er det også blevet til i 2012. Sleep består i dag af Matt Pike, Al Cisneros og Jason Roeder, der hver især har sat deres præg på metalverdenen med projekter som High On Fire, OM og Neurosis, men sammen udgør de et stykke musikhistorie. Bandet har ialt udgivet fem albums: 1991 Volume One / Tupelo Records 1992 Volume Two / Off the Disk Records 1993 Holy Mountain / Earache Records 1999 Jerusalem / The Music Cartel / Rise Above Records 2003 Dopesmoker /Tee Pee Records / Southern Lord Billetsalget starter i dag (28.02) kl. 16 via livenation.dk Live Nation er verdens førende producent og formidler af live entertainment oplevelser.

    2015-08-20 13:48 CEST High On Fire får væggene til at skælve i VEGA VEGA præsenterer High On Fire får væggene til at skælve i VEGA Pak ørepropperne og gør klar til at blive revet rundt, når heavy metal-hovederne i High On Fire uddeler musikalske tæsk søndag 22. november i Lille VEGA. Kongen af rockvokal, legendariske og fandenivoldske. Der bliver ikke sparet på de rosende tillægsord, når amerikanske High On Fire bliver beskrevet af anmeldere og fans. Kombinationen af den karismatiske frontmand Matt Pike, tromme-dynamoen Des Kensel og bassisten Jeff Matz er en sikker vinder, hvis man vil have heavy metal for fuld hammer. Bandet har netop udgivet nyt materiale i form af det syvende studiealbum, Luminiferous. Danske Devilution giver albummet 4/5 og kalder det trioens bedste i flere år. Amerikanske Pitchfork er på samme side og kalder albummet for et mesterværk og tildeler det 8/10. Lyt til ”Black Plot” fra det nye album. ”Matt Pike is guitar god to a generation of bikers, barbarians and beardos, and Luminiferous is one of his finest hours, full of enough gruff He-Man barking and muscular, Motörheaded riff wizardry to soundtrack Season 666 of Game of Thrones” - Rolling Stone. High On Fire sørger for at der bliver masser af hegn og god metal i Lille VEGA for de medbringer hele to supportbands til at holde stemningen på kogepunktet, inden de selv indtager scenen.

  • Notes from the Underground: a Cultural, Political, and Aesthetic Mapping of Underground Music
    Notes From The Underground: A Cultural, Political, and Aesthetic Mapping of Underground Music. Stephen Graham Goldsmiths College, University of London PhD 1 I declare that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Signed: …………………………………………………. Date:…………………………………………………….. 2 Abstract The term ‗underground music‘, in my account, connects various forms of music-making that exist largely outside ‗mainstream‘ cultural discourse, such as Drone Metal, Free Improvisation, Power Electronics, and DIY Noise, amongst others. Its connotations of concealment and obscurity indicate what I argue to be the music‘s central tenets of cultural reclusion, political independence, and aesthetic experiment. In response to a lack of scholarly discussion of this music, my thesis provides a cultural, political, and aesthetic mapping of the underground, whose existence as a coherent entity is being both argued for and ‗mapped‘ here. Outlining the historical context, but focusing on the underground in the digital age, I use a wide range of interdisciplinary research methodologies , including primary interviews, musical analysis, and a critical engagement with various pertinent theoretical sources. In my account, the underground emerges as a marginal, ‗antermediated‘ cultural ‗scene‘ based both on the web and in large urban centres, the latter of whose concentration of resources facilitates the growth of various localised underground scenes. I explore the radical anti-capitalist politics of many underground figures, whilst also examining their financial ties to big business and the state(s). This contradiction is critically explored, with three conclusions being drawn. First, the underground is shown in Part II to be so marginal as to escape, in effect, post- Fordist capitalist subsumption.

If the 1980s had been the golden age of heavy metal, the age when heavy metal was accepted by the masses and climbed the charts, the 1990s saw the fragmentation of the genre into rather different styles, that simply expanded on ideas of the 1980s. As usual, pop-metal, the genre that appealed to the masses, was, artistically speaking, the least significant variant of heavy metal. It spawned stars such as Los Angeles' Warrant, with Cherry Pie (1990); Boston's Extreme, who specialized in "metal-operas" a` la Queen such as Pornograffiti (1990); and Pennsylvania's Live, with Throwing Copper (1994); etc. Los Angeles had to live with remnants of its "street-scene" (Guns N' Roses, Jane's Addiction), although they sounded a lot less sincere and a lot less powerful than the original masters: Ugly Kid Joe, Life Sex And Death, Dishwalla, Ednaswap, etc. Glam-metal staged a comeback of sorts in Florida with Marilyn Manson (1), the product of Brian Warner's deranged mind.
