    Zerbröckelnde Utopien | norient.com 10 Oct 2021 07:07:28 Zerbröckelnde Utopien by Benedikt Sartorius Zehn Jahre war Jeff Mangum untergetaucht. In dieser Zeit mutierten seine Lieder mit der Band Neutral Milk Hotel zu Hymnen für Trostsuchende und Widerständige. Nun spielen Neutral Milk Hotel wieder Konzerte. Eine Spurensuche. Er taucht auf wie ein Geist. Ein hünenhafter Geist, ausgestattet mit einem Wollpulli, einer Schirmmütze, halblangen Haaren und einer akustischen Gitarre. Die Akkorde schlägt er hart an, und die Stimme erzählt von Wiedergeburten, von Flugzeugen über dem Meer, die Leichenasche abwerfen und von siamesischen Zwillingen, die in Flaschen eingeschlossen sind und dennoch ein Stückchen Liebe finden werden, irgendwann im Jenseits. Die ZeugInnen dieser Erscheinung singen all diese verklausulierten Erzählungen mit, ergänzen die Bänkellieder mit dem Nachsingen der abwesenden Bläsersätze, und feiern ihren unwahrscheinlichen Propheten, als würde er nach diesem knapp vierzigminütigen Auftritt wieder für zehn Jahre untertauchen. «You guys have done a beautiful fucking thing», sagt er zum Abschied, hier, an diesem Abend im New Yorker Zuccotti Park, wo die Occupy Wall Street-AktivistInnen versammelt sind. Das Handykamera-Bild flackert, die glücklich wirkende Gestalt verschwindet. Ja, er war es wirklich an diesem Spätherbstabend im Jahr 2011: Jeff Mangum, Sänger und Erfinder der Band Neutral Milk Hotel, der 1998 nach einer langen Tour einfach ausgestiegen ist. Ausgestiegen aus dem sozialen Leben – ohne Abschied von seinen Bandgefährten –, ausgestiegen aus dem Musikgeschäft und der Öffentlichkeit, die ihn zum Genie modulieren wollten, das eine Platte eingespielt hat, die für die Anhängerschaft grösser als das Leben wurde. https://norient.com/stories/neutralmilkhotel Page 1 of 7 Zerbröckelnde Utopien | norient.com 10 Oct 2021 07:07:28 «In the Aeroplane Over the Sea» heisst diese Platte, die vor sechzehn Jahren erschienen ist und seither kultisch verehrt wird.

    Big Fresh, a ten-member art/pop collective, has expanded like the universe since 2009’s ambitious ​ home-recorded B.F.F. (Big Fresh Forever); they’ve been joined by new singers and ​ ​ multi-instrumentalists Faith Diamond (Satellite Giant) and Kimberly Smith (Bear Medicine, Frigid ​ ​ ​ Kitty). ​ With John Ferguson and Ben Phelan having joined world-touring indie band The Apples in ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ stereo (and Ferguson contributing substantially on their most recent record), Big Fresh shows have ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ been sighted, but are farther between—yet in the studio, madly writing and producing, the band has evolved like a star cluster. The result is a stellar LP lying in a galactic sector between Tusk and R. Stevie Moore. Adding horns and ​ ​ ​ ​ the lush voices of Diamond and Smith into their elaborate arrangements, brings out the Fleetwood ​ ​ ​ Mac influence on Big Fresh, and the R. Stevie Moore element is no accident: Vocalist/songwriter John ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Ferguson spent his childhood having the hyper-creative lo-fi pioneer as a sort of uncle, appearing ​ on Moore’s recordings and immersed in his process. Moore contributed guitar parts to the album. ​ ​ ​ ​ Big Fresh’s newest EP, Fall Preview, is self-produced by the Kentucky avant-garde pop collective and ​ ​ engineered by electro-wizard Craig Morris in his hand-built Garden Gate Studio (The Apples in ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ stereo, Thee American Revolution, Deathray Davies, Neutral Milk Hotel, Laminated Cat), the new ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ album explodes with inventive catchiness and production details. More about Big Fresh and Fall Preview: ​ ​ ● Shining indie-pop hits somewhere between The Cars, Fleetwood Mac and Elephant 6. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ● Big Fresh is a ten-member pop collective including horns and three keyboard players.

Photo by 200pockets.com Lauded hardcore/noise-rock pioneers Flipper have extended their partnership with Krist Novoselic-- the former bassist of some group called Nirvana-- from touring to the recording of a new album, Flipper's first in 15 years, according to a Billboard.com report. The album is currently untitled, but drummer Steve DePace told Billboard.com that recording is "99% there, if not done. We've got 10 songs, and we just did another round of mixing. The album sounds great. I think it's some of our best work ever. That also is an indicator for more future songs to come. We know we can write songs with Krist now that sound just like Flipper." Among those new songs are "Be a Good Child", "Night Falls Like Dirt Rocks", and "Triple Mass Murder Suicide", which drew its inspiration from the Virginia Tech shootings, according to the report. Hey, if Nirvana could make "Rape Me" work... DePace also explained in the interview how Novoselic's 2006 entry into the band came about. After previous bassist Bruno DeSmartass left before Flipper's performance at the Thurston Moore-curated All Tomorrow's Parties, "I chatted with Thurston and told him that I had this idea to contact Krist Novoselic.
