  • The Jesus & Mary Chain in Concerto All’
    The Jesus & Mary Chain in concerto all’Alcatraz di Milano: data posticipata a dicembre MILANO, 25 gennaio 2021-‘Darklands’è il secondo episodio targato The Jesus & Mary Chain, seguito di quella pietra miliare che è tutt’oggi l’acclamatissimo Psycocandy. Nuovo album che la band riproporrà nella data milanese del 21 dicembre 2021 all’Alcatraz di Milano. Dieci brani spalmati in 35 minuti che trasudano un’oscura bellezza. E’ il 1987 quando i fratelli Reid danno alle stampe questo gioiello decadente, carico come sempre di riverberi, ma che segna un solco evidente con il loro disco d’esordio. La dipartita di Gillespie, impegnato coi suoi Primal Scream, produce un cambiamento notevole nel suono della band scozzese, che per la prima volta fa uso di una drum machine. Il risultato è un disco in cui le chitarre sferzanti e il furore degli esordi si stemperano lasciando spazio a brani più pop, morbide ballate malinconiche e atmosfere trasognate, senza però perdere quel senso di inquietudine che pervadeva Psychocandy. Il disco raggiunge il quinto posto delle charts inglesi, punto più alto mai raggiunto dai Mary Chain, e viene successivamente inserito nel compendio “1001 dischi da ascoltare prima di morire”. Dal vivo la band suonerà per intero Darklands per la prima volta in assoluto. Un evento unico che celebra un disco immortale ed irripetibile, da ascoltare e riascoltare. Band di culto degli anni Ottanta, i Jesus and Mary Chain, hanno con il loro stile e la loro musica rivoluzionato la scena di un’intera generazione. Il nuovo album di inediti intitolato “Damage & Joy” è uscito lo scorso 24 Marzo 2017 anticipato dal singolo “Amputation” su etichetta Creation Records, la stessa che li lanciò nel lontano 1984.

By far the most pervasive and long-lived was the revival of psychedelia, that kept recurring throughout the Eighties and the Nineties. Los Angeles had its own movement, the "Paisley Underground". Psychedelia became merely a pretext to concoct baroque, oneiric and hypnotic sounds, often with the help of keyboards and strings. Byrds-ian jangling guitars and naive melodies a` la Hollies dominate Emergency Third Rail Power Trip (feb/mar - oct 1983) by Rain Parade (1), with Matt Piucci on vocals and Dave Roback on guitar, as well as the EP Baroque Hoedown (fall 1982 - dec 1982) and the album Sixteen Tambourines (? 1983 - oct 1983) by Mike Quercio's Three O'Clock (1). Needless to say, the Paisley Underground was only the tip of the iceberg. The Dream Syndicate (12), formed by guitarists Steve Wynn and Karl Precoda and bassist Kendra Smith, acted as the natural liaison between Television (and the new wave in general) and the new generation of psychedelic rockers.

These fruity extracts, glycerin, Red 40s and outside agents provide you -- for a fleeting moment -- the taste of something that isn't actually there. Still, you can feel it melting on your tongue. It tastes real. A significant subsection of our contemporary pop music sphere is fittingly known affectionately as "bubblegum," mimicking the illusion of artificial taste made into a distinct, gummy sound. Candy is a staple in pop music, from The Strangeloves' 1965 hit "I Want Candy" to the unforgettable chorus "I'm craving for you / I'm missing you like candy" of Mandy Moore's 1999 smash hit "Candy." Glistening hooks and earworm choruses about the perils of love are infectious, even toxic.

  • Artist's Statement
    Artist’s Statement Eloise Coveny A practice-led researcher of critical theory, Eloise’s artistic practice combines the uses of documentary mediums that record image and sound to explore ontologies and poetics of time. These temporal nuances emerge from uncanny forces that she seeks to activate as she produces, collects and curates artefacts – in the form of objects, images and sounds – to compose spatial allegories. These installations work to speak across tensions at play to kindle personal narratives that in turn deconstruct “official” narratives of history. Here Eloise draws on technology and the literary/art works of Walter Benjamin, Martin Heidegger, Mariana Castillo Deball and Patrick Keiller. The theme ‘Rise and Fall’ reflects those transitional spaces throughout Glasgow city that are sites of construction, destruction, decay or stasis. These artworks aim to privilege voices that have been lost through official histories and the oppressive course of history for the working class. Walter Benjamin’s text Destructive Character presents us with a series of traits belonging to the essential destroyer of things, and thus a restorer of open space allowing new paths to form that lead us through the rubble. The destructive character sees nothing permanent. But for this very reason he/she sees ways everywhere. Where others encounter walls or mountains, there, too, he/she sees a way.
