  • Romantisk Punk-Kynisme Udforsker Alle Afkroge Af Livet Og Kærligheden
    2016-12-05 11:00 CET Romantisk punk-kynisme udforsker alle afkroge af livet og kærligheden Beatbox Entertainment & VEGA Præsenterer Romantisk punk-kynisme udforsker alle afkroge af livet og kærligheden Det engelske horror punk band Creeper udgiver deres længeventede debutalbum i marts og gæster Lille VEGA til en aften med teatralsk horror-punk onsdag den 5. april 2017. Creeper har tidligere udgivet to anmelderroste ep’er i form af The Callous Heart fra 2015 og The Stranger fra 2016. 2016 har endvidere medført prisen for ”Best British Newcomer” ved Kerrang! Awards samt ”Best New Band” ved Metal Hammer Golden Gods Awards. Snart er de klar med deres debutalbum Eternity, In Your Arms, som udkommer den 24. marts 2017. Efter at have imponeret fans i både hjem og udland med deres melankolske punk, er forventningerne tårnhøje til bandets næste udspil. Førstesinglen ”Suzanne” indfrier disse forventninger på fornem vis med en følelsesmæssig eruption af teatralsk teen-horror, tilsat adrenalinfremkaldende punk’n’roll. Bandet viser, at de mestrer at skabe musik på baggrund af forventninger, talent og tårnhøje ambitioner. Den tilhørende video består af bandet, der spiller på livet løs i lilla lys, afbrudt af klip fra hjemmeoptagelser, der kryber én langt ned ad ryggen, når en mystisk skikkelse kommer til syne i baggrunden. Der er noget mørkt over den romantiske sang, hvilket er lige præcis i Creepers ånd. Orkestreret sceneshow i et smukt univers I Creepers univers består hovedrollerne af en gruppe unge, der kalder sig selv for ”The Callous Heart”. På scenen agerer Creeper-medlemmerne som denne gruppe unge, der, i sangen ”The Secret Society” fra ep’en The Stranger, siger om sig selv: ”We don’t love or hate.

I named this one Bad Patterns because, for the past couple of years (when most of these stories were written), I've been fascinated with that concept. I see human interaction, human society, in terms of communication: great swirling clouds of communication lines. Those lines get snarled and tangled on occasions, bad patterns in the flow of symbols. And behavior, we find bad patterns in behavior as well, something I'm no stranger to, in life or fiction. Fiction itself finds these bad old patterns, comfortable cliches and templates for a story to be told. To illustrate a point. Some of these are so deeply wedded to the structure of storytelling, to the narrative engines we recognize as fictive, that they are almost impossible to dislodge. Here is a collection of bad old patterns, trying to be good, to do something worth the effort put into them.

  • Fern Leaves from Fanny's Port Folio
    Fern Leaves from Fanny's Port folio by Fanny Fern Fern Leaves from Fanny's Port-folio. Second Series. SHADOWS AND SUNBEAMS. CHAPTER I. I can see it now: the little brown house, with its sloping roof, its clumsy old chimneys, and its vine-clad porch; where the brown bee hummed his drowsy song, and my silver-haired old father sat dozing the sultry summer noons away, with shaggy Bruno at his feet. The bright earth had no blight or mildew then for me. The song of the little birds, resting beneath the eaves, filled my heart with a quiet joy. It was sweet, when toil was over, to sit in the low door-way, and watch the golden sun go down, and see the many-tinted clouds fade softly away (like a dying saint) into the light of heaven, and evening’s glittering star glow, like a seraph’s eye, above them. ’Twas sweet, when Autumn touched the hill-side foliage with rainbow dyes, to see the gorgeous leaves come circling down on the soft Indian- summer breeze. ’Twas sweet, when the tripping, silver stream lay still and cold in Winter’s icy clasp, and the flowers fainted beneath his chilly breath, and the leafless trees stretched out their imploring arms, and shook off, impatiently, their snowy burthen, and the heavy wagon-wheels went creaking past, and the ruddy farmer struck his brawny arms across his ample chest, for warmth, and goaded the lazy, round-eyed oxen up the icy hill. Even then, it was sunshine still, in the little brown house: in the ample chimney glowed and crackled the blazing faggots; rows of shining pans glittered upon the shelves; the fragrant loaf steamed in the little oven; the friendly tea-kettle, smoking, sang in the chimney corner, and by its side still sat the dear old father, with the faithful newspaper, that weekly brought us news from the busy world, from which our giant forest-trees had shut us out.

  • 1 Or MIRIAM ALROY by Benjamin Disraeli Sweet Sister!
    ALROY or MIRIAM ALROY by Benjamin Disraeli TO Sweet sister! As I wondered on the mountains of Sion, behold! a gazelle came bounding o'er the hills! It perceived me, it started back, it gazed at me with trembling surprise. Ah! fear not! fair creature, I fondly exclaimed, fear not, and flee not away! I too have a gazelle in a distant land; not less beautiful her airy form than thine, and her dark eye not less tremulously bright. Ah! little did I deem, my sweetest friend, that ere I pressed that beauteous form again, sorrow should dim the radiance of they smile, and charge that brilliant eye with many a tear! Yet trust thee, dearest, in a brother's love, the purest sympathy of our fallen state! If I recall one gleam of rapture to thy pensive cheek, not in vain I strike my lonely lyre, or throw these laurels at they fairy feet! PREFACE Being at Jerusalem in the year 1831, and visiting the traditionary tombs of the Kings of Israel, my thoughts recurred to a personage whose marvellous career had, even in boyhood, attracted my attention, as one fraught with the richest materials of poetic fiction. And I then commenced these pages that should commemorate the name of ALROY. In the twelfth century, when he arose, this was the political condition of the East: The Caliphate was in a state of rapid decay. The Seljukian Sultans, who had been called to the assistance of the Commanders of the Faithful, had become, like the Mayors of the palace in France, the real sovereigns of the Empire.
