  • Joan As Police Woman

    Joan As Police Woman

    PRESSEMITTEILUNG VOM 17.05.2018 Joan as Police Woman Im Juli für zwei Termine in Deutschland Joan As Police Woman hat im Februar ihr neues Studioalbum “Damned Devotion“ veröffentlicht. Frühere Alben haben Auszeichnungen um Auszeichnungen erhalten, wie das beste Rock- und Popalbum bei den Independent Music Awards (“Real Life“) oder das Album des Jahres des Q Magazine (“To Survive“). Während ihr 2014er Album “The Classic“ eine gefühlvolle Feier des Lebens war und ihr 2011er Album “The Deep Field“ eine üppige, stimmungsvolle musikalische Erweiterung ihres Gesamtwerks darstellte, gehen die Kompositionen auf “Damned Devotion“, ihrem nunmehr fünften Studioalbum, zurück zum Kern: Nackte Lyrik gepaart mit zeitlosen Melodien. „This record is darker and more pensive. The title is undeniably dramatic but it’s a subject I’ve been tan- gling with all my life: how does one live a devoted life without becoming obsessed or losing one’s mind?“, sagt Joan Wasser über “Damned Devotion“. Es gibt natürlich die gut dokumentierten dunklen Zeiten im Leben von Joan Wasser: der Tod ihres Freundes Jeff Buckley 1997, der Selbstmord ihres Freundes Elliot Smith im Jahr 2003 und der Tod ihrer Mutter vier Jahre später. Musik war stets die Medizin, die sie durch schwierige Zeiten getragen hat. Die Lücke zwischen “The Classic” und “Damned Devotion” wurden durch Zusammenarbeiten mit den Modedesignern Viktor & Rolf sowie Sufjan Stevens, Lau, RZA und erst kürzlich mit Daniel Johnston geschlossen. Mit ihrem neuen Album gastierte Joan as Police Woman bereits im April in Deutschland und beehrt uns nun für zwei weitere Termine im Sommer. Joan as Police Woman 16.07.18 Berlin, Lido 17.07.18 Heidelberg, Karlstorbahnhof Tickets für die Tour sind ab sofort erhältlich im Internet über www.schoneberg.de als auch bei ausgesuchten CTS-/Eventim VVK-Stellen.

    NIEUWE RELEASES KLIK OP DE HOES VOOR DE SINGLE (Mits Beschikbaar)

    NIEUWE RELEASES KLIK OP DE HOES VOOR DE SINGLE (mits beschikbaar) LEONARD COHEN – You Want It Darker CD/LP 'You Want It Darker', een paar weken geleden werd deze titeltrack vrijgegeven online en ik was meteen verkocht. Ik vond de vorige plaat 'Populair Problems' al fantastisch maar 'You Want It Darker' overtreft het op alle vlakken. Donkere plaat met veel verwijzingen naar de dood bijvoorbeeld wat op zich niet vreemd is gezien zijn leeftijd (82). Prachtig en ontroerend meesterwerk van deze levende legende! Het wordt druk boven in de top tien albums van het jaar.... KENSINGTON – Control CD/LP ‘Control’ is het nieuwe album van Kensington, het Utrechtse viertal dat zich de afgelopen jaren heeft ontwikkeld tot één van de grootste bands van het land. Niet alleen door het succesvolle album ‘Rivals’ maar ook door hun live reputatie waarmee ze de festival- en live podia (én maar liefst 4x in onze winkel!) hebben veroverd. Eerste single van het album ‘Control’ is ‘Do I Ever’. Het album is gelimiteerd verkrijgbaar als cd digipack inclusief een 20 pagina booklet én op vinyl (eerste oplage is genummerd en gekleurd vinyl). KORN – Serenity of Suffering CD/CD-Deluxe/LP/LP-Deluxe 'Serenity of Suffering' is het 12e studio album van de nu-metal band Korn. Volgens gitarist Brian Welch is deze plaat een stuk zwaarder en steviger dan dat iemand in een lange tijd heeft gehoord. Het album is de opvolger van 'The Paradigm Shift' uit 2013 en werd geproduceerd door Grammy-award winnende producer Nick Raskulinecsz (Foo Fighters, Deftones, Mastodon). Op de deluxe versie staan twee extra tracks.

    Rock in Rio 2019: Sunset - Slayer E Anthrax Se Apresentam Em Dia Dedicado Ao Metal

    Rock in Rio 2019: Sunset - Slayer e Anthrax se apresentam em dia dedicado ao Metal Show das bandas Torture Squad e Claustrofobia com participação de Chuck Billy e banda Nervosa completam as atrações do palco Rio de Janeiro, dezembro de 2018 — As novidades do Rock in Rio para a edição de 2019 não param. E, enquanto o Palco Mundo já anunciava suas quatro atrações para uma noite emblemática do metal, com IRON MAIDEN, Scorpions, Megadeth e Sepultura, a organização do evento preparava outra surpresa para os metaleiros que frequentam o festival. O Palco Sunset apresenta dois grandes nomes, para esta noite de 4 de outubro de 2019: as bandas norte-americanas Slayer, que fará seu último show da turnê de despedida dos palcos, e fecha o Sunset neste dia, e ainda Anthrax. Elas fazem parte do seleto grupo “The Big Four”, do thrash metal mundial. A abertura da noite fica por conta da banda Nervosa. Fundado em 2010, o power trio paulistano formado por Prika Amaral (guitarra e vocais), Fernanda Lira (vocal e baixo) e Luana Dametto (bateria), já lançou três discos de estúdio pela gravadora austríaca Napalm Records. O projeto mais recente da Nervosa, lançado em 2018, é o álbum Downfall of Mankind, que traz elementos do Death Metal à sonoridade da banda. A apesar da língua inglesa, as letras são, em sua maioria, focadas em problemas sociais do Brasil como corrupção e política. Completando as atrações, duas das principais bandas da cena underground brasileira dividem o Palco Sunset numa ode ao trash metal: Claustrofobia e Torture Squad e recebem Chuck Billy, vocalista da banda americana Testament.
  • Contemporary Left Antisemitism

    Contemporary Left Antisemitism

    “David Hirsh is one of our bravest and most thoughtful scholar-activ- ists. In this excellent book of contemporary history and political argu- ment, he makes an unanswerable case for anti-anti-Semitism.” —Anthony Julius, Professor of Law and the Arts, UCL, and author of Trials of the Diaspora (OUP, 2010) “For more than a decade, David Hirsh has campaigned courageously against the all-too-prevalent demonisation of Israel as the one national- ism in the world that must not only be criticised but ruled altogether illegitimate. This intellectual disgrace arouses not only his indignation but his commitment to gather evidence and to reason about it with care. What he asks of his readers is an equal commitment to plumb how it has happened that, in a world full of criminality and massacre, it is obsessed with the fundamental wrongheadedness of one and only national movement: Zionism.” —Todd Gitlin, Professor of Journalism and Sociology, Columbia University, USA “David Hirsh writes as a sociologist, but much of the material in his fascinating book will be of great interest to people in other disciplines as well, including political philosophers. Having participated in quite a few of the events and debates which he recounts, Hirsh has done a commendable service by deftly highlighting an ugly vein of bigotry that disfigures some substantial portions of the political left in the UK and beyond.” —Matthew H. Kramer FBA, Professor of Legal & Political Philosophy, Cambridge University, UK “A fierce and brilliant rebuttal of one of the Left’s most pertinacious obsessions. What makes David Hirsh the perfect analyst of this disorder is his first-hand knowledge of the ideologies and dogmata that sustain it.” —Howard Jacobson, Novelist and Visiting Professor at New College of Humanities, London, UK “David Hirsh’s new book Contemporary Left Anti-Semitism is an impor- tant contribution to the literature on the longest hatred.

    For Immediate Release / August 28, 2020 Metallica

    Contact: Public Relations San Francisco Symphony (415) 503-5474 [email protected] sfsymphony.org/press FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE / AUGUST 28, 2020 METALLICA AND SAN FRANCISCO SYMPHONY: S&M2 OUT NOW Live album and video captured September 6 & 8, 2019 at San Francisco’s Chase Center Available now via metallica.com/sm2 SAN FRANCISCO, CA—The San Francisco Symphony and Metallica’s S&M2 live album and video, captured at concerts on September 6 & 8, 2019 at San Francisco’s Chase Center is out now, available in a variety of formats including vinyl, CD, DVD, and Blu-ray via metallica.com/sm2. The concerts were historic on multiple levels, serving as the grand opening of San Francisco’s Chase Center, reuniting the band and Symphony for the first time since the 1999 performances captured on the Grammy-winning S&M album, and featuring the first-ever symphonic renditions of songs written and released since those original S&M shows. “S&M2 offers an inspired and eye-opening view into not just the shared heritage of classical music and heavy metal, but into the spirit of innovation and to endless vistas awaiting exploration.” - Louder “And it’s also of little surprise, especially for anyone who attended those increasingly legendary shows at Chase last year, that this new album is another major winner. What a great memento of such a monumental night in Bay Area live music history.” - The Mercury News “This collaboration between Metallica and the San Francisco Symphony brings to life the fusion of heavy metal and classical music. As it was in 1999, S&M2 is a grand celebration of the energy and magic that these forms of music convey.” – Metal Wani S&M2 is a landmark release in the Metallica catalogue, both sonically and visually.
