WORDS OISIN LUNNY PHOTOGRAPHER BART PAJAK The lungs of the Earth are on fire. Amazon rain- forests are razed to the ground, and the after- noon sky above São Paulo is midnight-black. The powerful are inoculated from the consequences of their actions by lifetimes of privilege and cor- ruption. Populations are hypnotised by reality TV, distracted by social media, and pocketed into the polarising allegiances of the internet. Are you ‘yes’ or ‘no’, ‘stay’ or ‘go’? There is no in-between. We have just over ten years to avert an irreversible climate change catastrophe. Siberia is burning so hot you can see it from space. The zeitgeist is dam- aged.

After last month’s bumper issue, we thought this month would be a doddle, but what with assorted internet problems, cancelled gigs and a near miss with floodwater it’s a wonder it’s here at all. Suffice to say, the sooner humanity abandons modern technology and returns to potato printing and carrier pigeons the sooner we shall start feeling at home in the world. Preferably a world where it never rains and singers never lose their voices. Is that really too much to ask? Last month’s feature on the closure of regional venues has provoked quite a reaction and it’s good to hear from people who are making the effort to start promoting live music around the county. Hopefully music fans out there will support them as much as they can.

  • Foals Släpper Dubbla Album Under 2019 – Första Singeln ”Exits” Ute Nu!
    Foals 2019-01-22 13:53 CET Foals släpper dubbla album under 2019 – Första singeln ”Exits” ute nu! Den 8 mars släpper brittiska Foals det första av två kommande album 2019; ”Everything not saved will be lost – Part 1”. Part 2 släpps senare under hösten 2019. Den första låten från det nya albumet; ”Exits” är redan släppt. “They’re two halves of the same locket,” säger frontmannen Yannis Philippakis. “They can be listened to and appreciated individually, but fundamentally, they are companion pieces.” Foals har sedan 2015 streamats över en halv miljard gånger på Spotify. Bandet har gått från stökiga hemmafester till headline-bokningar på några av världens största festivaler. Foals har också nominerats i bland annat BRIT Awards, Mercury Prize och Novello samt vunnit priser i NME och Q-Awards. Efter drygt tio år sen starten har medlemmarna Yannis Philippakis (frontman), JimmySmith (gitarr), JackBevan (trummor), EdwinCongreave (keyboard) och WalterGervers (bassist) skapat två fullängdsalbum under 2019 ”Everything not saved will be lost – Part 1” och “Everything not saved will be lost – Part 2”. Den första singeln från albumet ”Exits” förkroppsligar temat för de två kommande albumen, i fokus står en desorienterad värld som ackompanjeras av melodiösa textrader. “There's a definite idea about the world being no longer habitable in the way that it was,” fortsätter Yannis. “A kind of perilousness lack of predictability and a feeling of being overwhelmed by the magnitudes of the problems we face. What's the response? And what’s the purpose of any response that one individual can have?” “Lyrically, there are resonances with what's going on in the world at the moment,” sammanfattar Yannis.

  • PRESSEMITTEILUNG 26.09.2017 the Strypes Wieder Auf
    FKP Scorpio Konzertproduktionen GmbH Große Elbstr. 277 a ∙ 22767 Hamburg Tel. (040) 853 88 888 ∙ www.fkpscorpio.com PRESSEMITTEILUNG 26.09.2017 The Strypes wieder auf Deutschland Tour The Strypes sind eine der aufregendsten Rock’n’Roll-Bands von den Britischen Inseln. Die Auftritte des Quartetts sind legendär, als Vorband sind sie inzwischen ziemlich gefürchtet, weil sie die Hauptacts schon öfters locker an die Wand spielten (und werden folgerichtig gerne mal in der Lautstärke gedrosselt). Die irische Band hat sich 2010 gegründet und 2013 mit „Snapshot“ ein umjubeltes Debüt hingelegt. Seither waren sie fast nonstop auf Tour, haben die ganze Welt bespielt und zwischendurch mit „Little Victories“ ein weiteres Album vorgelegt. In diesem Jahr haben sich The Strypes mit doppelter Energie zurückgemeldet und ihre dritte Platte „Spitting Image“ veröffentlicht. Die Qualität des Songwritings ist darauf unverändert hoch. Der Hang zur Melodie und zur coolen Hook, das Gespür für das passende Riff sind fast schon erschreckend perfekt. Dabei sind die Jungs gerade erst um die 20 Jahre alt. Aber Sänger Ross Farrelly, Gitarrist Josh McClorey, Bassist Peter O’Hanlon und Schlagzeuger Evan Walsh hatten von Anfang an einen guten Plan: Alles in Grund und Boden zu rocken und dabei so viel Spaß zu haben und so gut auszusehen wie möglich. Was ihnen ganz hervorragend gelingt. Dabei wurden sie anfangs fast falsch verstanden, als die britische Presse sie zu den lustigen Jung- Retro-Rockern aus den 60ern erkor. Natürlich haben sie ihr Outfit von den Mods und die Frisuren den mittleren Beatles geklaut. Selbstverständlich spielen sie mit solchen Klischees und referieren auf die Stones und The Jam und The Knack gleichzeitig.
