  • S Final Album,Alt-Nation
    Motif Music Award Winners On a rainy Tuesday night, an eclectic crowd of roughly 400 musicians and music lovers, from folk to hardcore, from hip-hop to EDM, gathered to swap stories, down drinks and receive awards. Thanks to all who came out, and thanks to the nearly 4,000 Motif readers who took the time to vote for their favorites. It was awesome to see so much talent in one room – in this case, at The Met Café in Pawtucket. Different styles, genres, ages and instruments all mixed together, including stand-out performances by the amazing School of Rock teens, the almost-performance-art random rock of The Viennagram, the acoustic stylings of Amanda Salemi and hip-hop duo DirtyDurdie. There was something for everyone, in what was probably the most eclectic mix of styles to share a Rhode Island stage in a very, very long time. Big thanks to all, as well as to our many presenters, hosts John Fuzek and BettySioux Tailor, Rhodies Food Truck (rhodiesfoodtruck.tumblr.com), and of course, The Met Café. Yes, there are winners (you picked ‘em!), but Motif puts on this awards show to celebrate all the amazing music and musical talent that’s fostered and we hope will thrive in our small-population, big- talent state. We don’t so much care who won – we’re just glad so many came out to play. [AMERICANA] By: John Fuzek BEST ACT: Consuelo’s Revenge Consuelo doesn’t need revenge this time around. The band, whose self-termed musical label is “Genericana,” showed they are tops in the Americana category this year.

  • Alt-Nation: Starting May Off Right
    Alt-Nation: Starting May Off Right Rough Francis The sons of Death return to the Columbus Theatre to lay a smackdown of ’70s Motor City inspired rock ‘n’ roll. I call them the sons of Death because three members of the band are sons of the Hackney brothers who had the band Death in the early ’70s. Death has come back to public eye in recent years due to the attention from the documentary, A Band Called Death. However, Rough Francis aren’t lost in the shadow of Death’s spotlight by any means. I may be a little biased toward any band that draws heavily from early ’70s Detroit bands like MC5 and The Stooges (both of which I’ve seen Rough Francis cover) but Rough Francis are the real deal. One of the best young live bands I’ve seen in recent years. Rough Francis released a killer album last year in Maximum Soul Power. Cuts off Maximum Soul Power like “Ruffians,” I-90 East,” and “Not A Nice Guy” harness the aggression of early ’70s punk rock. They mix in some psychedelic by re-working the MC5’s “Black to Comm” to their version called “Comm to Space.” Get there early for local garage rockers Gymshorts, who will get things heated up. Rough Francis and Gymshorts rock the Columbus Theatre on May 1. The Relationship The Relationship is an alt-rock super groups of sorts composed of members of Weezer, U.S. Bombs, and The Bravery. The band was formed by Weezer guitarist Brian Bell and Nate Shaw from Die Hunns.

  • Rock-A My Soul Is a Most Engaging Handbook for All Whose Faith Is Intertwined with Popular Music
    “Rock-a My Soul is a most engaging handbook for all whose faith is intertwined with popular music. In friendly prose for seekers of all kinds, David Nantais shows that concert halls and music collections are the postmodern mangers where new and enduring spiritual identities are being born. And to this scene of new birth he comes bearing guitars, drums, bass—and a vivid appreciation for the importance of mystery and mystical experience. An impassioned traveling companion!” — Tom Beaudoin Associate Professor of Theology Fordham University “A tension between the worldly and the spiritual has existed in rock ’n’ roll since its foundations in African-American spirituals, gospel, and blues music. But for Catholic drummer Nantais, the very music often feared by religious folk has served as both balm and outlet to help him understand God. In this short, first-person musing, Nantais argues that ‘theology can be done through music,’ encouraging Christians to see rock ’n’ roll as a ‘mode of theological expression.’ Setting aside contemporary Christian music (which he says is not the only way to marry rock and religion), he argues that mainstream rock has many virtues: community building and transcendent elements, meditative qualities, expression of emotion. Nantais admits to some less edifying aspects of rock (e.g., segregated crowds at rock music venues, ties to consumerism). He also chooses not to address a major sticking point for some—offensive lyrics— and so may not be able to convince every reader of rock’s merits. Despite that, his enthusiasm for mix tapes and chord progressions is infectious. Christians will learn to find God in a rock concert, and lovers of all things drum and guitar will find spiritual validation.” — Publishers Weekly “David Nantais is, hands down, one of the best young writers on Christian spirituality: inviting, inventive, and insightful.

  • Weezer to Release New Album—Er, Single—After 'Raditude' Chris
    Weezer to release new album—er, single—after ‘Raditude’ Chris Slattery 10-21-09 After the release of their new album, titled “Raditude,” rock band Weezer has announced that they will be releasing a new single, separate from the anticipated album. “We’re really excited about this,” said frontman Rivers Cuomo on the band’s website. “We’re trying something no other one’s ever done before.” The last artist to do this was Buddy Holly in 1957. “It may seem like an out-of-the-box idea that no one else has done,” said Cuomo. “But I like to be a troublemaker.” The single’s title is still not known, but reports state that it will be 2 minutes and 11 seconds long, making one of Weezer’s longest songs. The single will be packaged in a standard jewel case with the album artwork consisting of the band standing in front of a yellow background, underneath the band name. Along with the lead single, the CD will also include 9 B-sides. “We don’t expect people to like these other songs,” said Cuomo. “They’re throwaways. I would hardly consider them tracks.” Weezer guitarist Brian Bell added, “Good songs? Why bother?” The single, along with the B-sides will be 8 minutes and 30 seconds total, making it longer than most of Weezer’s previous albums. Pre-orders on iTunes will include a bonus remix by the single’s producer, Timbaland, the self-proclaimed Greatest Man That Ever Lived. “This is the future today,” said Timbaland. “Why put out albums full of decent songs anymore? That was never Weezer’s strong suit anyway.

  • Alt-Nation: Liberty Fest, the Spot Celebrates, Bridgefest and Under My Skin,Alt-Nation: Summer in the City,Alt-Nation: Just Goin
    Alt-Nation: Festivals in Flux Festivals in Flux In local music, breaking news is kind of rare. Sure, bands put out albums and play shows, but those are more the result of months of work and planning than anything suddenly happening. But Liberty Fest had some breaking news as the steward of Liberty Fest decided to move the festival a mere week before its scheduled date from Dusk to Simon’s 677. The reasoning behind the move is that in order to run a second stage, Dusk would have to assume a significant financial risk to rent the equipment necessary. Dusk proposed adding “$3 suggested donation” to the show featuring over 40 acts to help cover the costs. The steward of Liberty Fest would not assume any of the financial burdens or accept any cover charge for the event that has traditionally been a free neighborhood block party. So last Saturday Liberty Fest announced the show was moving to Simon’s, which has its own outdoor stage already, eliminating a significant financial investment and keeping the event free. So same bands, same times, different venue a half mile away – sounds so simple, right? Well, not so fast. Dusk quickly mobilized and announced they will be throwing a free one stage Fourth of July bash called Revival Fest. To muddy the waters, many of the better-known bands like World’s Greatest Lover, Happiness, VulGarrity, Fabulous Itchies, Hope Anchor, Gavage, Sire and more dropped out of Liberty Fest to play Revival Fest. So this 4th of July there’ll be two big free local shows to choose from: Revival Fest with the more established bands at Dusk or Liberty Fest with who knows what at press time at Simon’s 677.
