This year Swiss rock and roll band The Monsters turned into his 30th. The Monsters are such a phenomenon like Motörhead. They also have a very own style. „M” is the 2nd of the 3 anniversary albums. It is a muck pile for trash rockers. Raw, short, fast songs almost without melodies, but with minimlaist lyrics. Exempli gratia

And the penmanship is laudable. Every info is written by hand with blue and red pens. It has brought my self-decorated high school’s books to my mind.

„M” OUT NOW ON VOODOO RHYTHM RECORDS! Anyway the title of the album is taken from Fritz Lang’s film „M”. Here is

Record release tour in November Switzerland, Germany, Austria, Holland, Norway, Belgium.

O LENDÁRIO CHUCROBILLYMAN – oh how beautiful this name – IS A ONE-MAN-BAND FROM BRAZIL – who sell his soul to the devil on the corner of Rio Iguazu and Rio Negro – HE PLAYS AMAZON DELTA BLUES – this is my favourite song from him:

It is on his latest album MAN MONKEY which RELEASED ON VINYL now. If you want to buy please write to him: klauskoti AT gmail.com. CD and digital versions are available via his label Fon-Fon Records

But what is Macumba? It is a name of an African drum and a popular chaotic religion-like something in South-America, which combines elements of many different religions like voodoo. There is a ritual with drums, dance, sacrifice of animals and other offerings for the spirits. There is a master who can connect with spirits, of course in trance, and can ask them to do good or bad things – especially in love and money matters, because the worshippers are interested in these mysterious things mainly. During the liturgy the congregation falls into trance, and on the end of the service they will have just a little reminiscence about what exactly happened. Exactly like in the profane way of worship of spirits.

Because an average person also can connect with spirits through his lips. In these case those spirits are in bottles and you need swallow them. The trance comes right after the empty bottles. During the process at first the good spirits will be victorious, but after a total blackout the bad spirits will rule your body.

But if you are lucky enough will find a cold beer in your fridge.

Belgian videomaker collective SAUVAGE SAUVAGE has made a devastating new clip for American devastating noise rock band BLIND SHAKE, and just like the makers, also the music is savage savage

NEW ALBUM OUT on GONER RECORDS

Bela Lugosi originally was a locksmith lad but became an actor of the National Theatre of Hungary. During the short lived Hungarian Soviet Republic in 1919 he was a member of the workers and soldiers’ soviet in the 2nd district of Budapest. He was charged with communize the Hungarian theatres by the Commissariat of Public Education.

He „was a dangerous communist”. In revolutionary meetings at Club of Artists and National Theatre he agitated for communism and the dictatorship of proletariat. And he presented it. Mayor of Budapest was evicted from his flat by our hero. After the fall he escaped, but a warrant of arrest was issued by the Royal Prosecution Office against him.

„A frightful hobgoblin stalks throughout Europe. We are haunted by a ghost, the ghost of Communism” – wrote Marx and Engels in their Communist Manifesto in 1848. But the Americans were haunted by the Dracula himself. And now also the Englishmen, thanks to The Severed Limb

They are very DIY . „The Severed Limb began life as a punk skiffle trio, recording a cassette in the cellar of drummer Charlie Michael’s south London pub in 2008. With Bobby Paul on guitar/vocals and Charlie’s half brother Leo Lewis on washboard they began gigging in South London pubs. With no actual bass player they asked members of the audience to fill in on tea-chest bass.”

But maybe you also don’t know what is „skiffle.” Well, it’s a music genre with jazz, blues, folk and roots influences, usually using homemade or improvised instruments. Exactly like Mama Rosin does it.

Today there are six men in The Severed Limb, even with so trivial instruments like standard drum-kit or organ, so the shadow of heresy is on them. Dr. Orloff should to make an inspection in this case.

„Bela Lugosi” 7″ vinyl will be released on Drastic Decline Records on November 12.

Az idén 30 éves The Monsters zenekar egy három részes sorozattal (az elsőről itt írtunk) ünnepli meg e jeles évfordulót, és örvendeztet meg minden jóravaló trashrockert. Íme a második kis mocsok halom, a hetedik The Monsters studió album, az ‘M’.

Amitől azt kapod amit megérdemelsz. Kopogtatnak az ajtón, kinyitod. Ott áll négy középkorú férfi, az egyik se szó se beszéd rád borítja egy 120 literes kuka teljes tartalmát, kiröhögnek és húznak is elfele, de az egyikük még oda szól, hogy most a szomszéd következik, és ha akarsz, menjél te is velük. Te meg ugye vagy mész, vagy maradsz otthon. A négy középkorú férfi természetesen a Monsters négy tagja.

Végül is a Monsters olyan jelenség, mint a mondjuk a Motörhead. Nekik isvan egy saját nagyon karakteres stílusuk, és azon belül mozognak lemezről-lemezre ilyen-olyan irányba. Ez most jó töményre sikeredett: a hangzás nyers, a számok rövidek és elég gyorsak, a dallamok szinte teljesen mellőzve, a szövegek a lehető legminimalistábbak (az első három dal szövege a számcím maga párszor elhadarva: Baby you’re my Drug / Dig my Hair / I can’t stop, oszt heló).

A külalak megint csillagos ötös, szaktanári dicsérettel! Minden infó, plusz a dalszöveg kézzel írva kék és vörös golyóstollal vagy filctollal – gondolom Beat-Man munkája. Kurvára a saját magam által felturbózott középiskolai tankönyveimet juttatja eszembe.

Ja, és a lemez a címét  Fritz Lang 1931-es filmje, az ‘ M – Egy város keresi a gyilkost’ után kapta. Igen jó film, itt megtalálod angol felirattal.

BOM is a ONE-MAN-WITH-BASS-BAND by Kornél Bíró, who e.g. also was in legendary yodeling punk group Spatzen Jodler Sextett, which was a side project of Lyuhász Lyácint Bt, the freighter of industrial/noise/experimental music scene in Hungary.

Next month he is going to play in some places in Europe, including Lauter Krach (industrial – elektro – IDM – experimental – hardcore techno – ambient – noise –  powerelektro – musik klänge) festival in Germany

– When, where and why you have started the BOM project?

The first time I gave a solo concert was in 2014 on an event called „Zajkert” (Noisegarden) in my hometown Debrecen. This concert was a 13 minutes long pure improvisation. Before this I was not thinking about this project, but after the concert I knew that I want to do this. The thing I liked the most was the challenge itself, and the total freedom of creating something new. I enjoy pushing the boundaries, even my own ones.

– Your only instrument is the bass guitar, but there are many high tunes in your music. How many effects and gadgets are used by you? And what is about your strings?

I use quite a lot of pedals, for example distortions and delays, an octaver and a lot of other great gadgets, which help me make a bass sound that differs from the traditional bass guitar. My strings are normal. I use the same strings since seven years: DR Sunbeam 45-105. Because they have a brilliant treble and warm sound at the same time, but it can be quite aggressive if needed. The pots settings on my amp are unusual as well. I use a lot of treble and bass, and I cut off the middle tones.

Your guitar is a unique instrument. Could you say something about it?

I designed my guitar and a 29 year old talented friend of mine, Csaba Boldogh, made it up. The body of the instrument was made of cherry tree. It has very colourful and beautiful treble and bass tones, but no middle tones. It’s a neck-thru bass guitar with very good stability. It has a Kahler Bass Tremolo Bridge from the 80s. The pickups were made for me by Kent Armstrong. I told my friend who had built it that I needed something like a vintage instrument regarding its shape and sound. So it would be a beautiful vintage instrument with zero kilometre.

In the beginning there was just improvisation, but are there pre-written parts nowadays?

Yes, it started like that, but at the very beginning there were a few concerts that I could not manage as I expected. Especially one concert in Budapest was a negative experience for me. I had technical problems during the soundcheck, then I had some conflict with the technician. I had to start the concert right after this nerve-racking situation. I was in a very bad state of mind and after about 20 minutes of torture on stage I dropped my instrument and left. After this I decided that I will write the frames in advance. Now the written and improvisation parts are 80%-20%, but sometimes it can change.

You said that when you was listening to recordings of your shows you reckoned those horrible ones even for yourself too, and then you thought that should move toward a more listener friendly direction.  

Yes, that’s right. The last time I gave concert was in November 2015, since that I had problems with a rehearsal room. Listening to the records I made during this time I realised that there was need something else next to the bass. Since then I learned to use a drum machine and learned things about midi as well. These were unknown for me before. Besides these on live concerts I use a small analogue synthesizer and a strongly effected microphone to tell texts. I like to use distortion and delay regarding the microphone as well. In the rehearsal room I use a few other instruments and things to take samples – for example an electric organ.

In early November you are going to start your tour. Some words about it?

Last November I got an invitation for the Lauter Krach Festival III in 2016 which will be held in this November in Lauter, Germany. After this I was mailing with clubs from Germany and I organised a tour with eight stages. There will be five concerts in Germany, one-one in Austria, Hungary and Romania. I will record every concert, then I cut the best parts out on my third album. It will be released on cassette and as well as digitally.

You will get into a van with your equipments and go?

– As you say, with the difference that I will go by my 33 year old VW Golf Mk1.

There are some bands where you are in.

I am a member of a group called Lyuhász Lyácint Bt. since 1997. This year we celebrated its 25th birthday.  I am thankful for being a band member, and we do not plan to make an end of giving wonderful concerts. We give a few shows a year so it is not exacting. An another band which I founded in 2013 called Százaségő is an improvisational noise rock band. The other band members live in Budapest, so it is not an easy thing to organize a concert, and besides that everybody has their own musical project, so nowadays we don’t give concerts. I am also a member of a band called Milzenvirgil which is founded by Sándor Kaszás (guitar) from the Flexible Juice. We did just one gig so far, but it was a great experience.

Furthermore you organize a concert series called BanZaj in Debrecen. We know how very difficult to organize underground shows in any countryside town in Hungary, but your series seem well-founded.

It is true that it is not an easy task, but thanks to these events a lot of great musicians and bands can get to Debrecen. I’m sure these events won’t stop as Modem – Centre for Modern and Contemporary Arts – provides us opportunity to hold a few events per year there. Besides that there is the Felező Klub, where I also could manage a few events. And I always try to find new venues. For example the next BanZaj show will be inside a water tower on 2nd of November. It will be the first stage of my tour.

Shes the GLAND from New Orleans and yes guys, her name a more scientifically correct way of describing your penis, without sounding too rude (via Urban Dictionary). The feminist as hell band’s pretty new musicvideo CRAM IT make our boypussy wet.

American musician RANDY NEWMAN who – besides his score music: Ragtime, A Bug’s Life, Toy Story, Cars and more – famous his satirical songs too. Now he sings a song about the great leader of Russia in the style of Kurt Weil

„I hope all of you like it. I know he will” – said Newton. I am sure, but in the scene of football fanatics there are Hungarian flags. Not a big problem, because they are almost the same ones. Anyway

„He can drive his giant tractor
Across the Trans-Siberian plain
He can power a nuclear reactor
With the left side of his brain
And when he takes his shirt off
He drives the ladies crazy
When he takes his shirt off
Makes me wanna be a lady.”

You find the full lyrics here.

The song has been taken from his next album will be released sometime next year. But you can get the song:

TWINS (US, Atlanta, Georgia) is Matt Weiner who is also known for his Featureless Ghost project and of course as the head of the DKA Records label… it’s a classic minimal elektro record but at the same time a rather modern piece of electronic music…RATHER NOT 12″ MINI LP

Zarkoff together with Ikonal from Croatia… these three tracks are from one of the infamous synth jams Zarkoff is organizing in an empty factory near Sisak in Croatia… the acid tracks featured on this EP have a throbbing beat with a clear hint to EBM… and the acid lines are both psychedelic and dark… TOXICOLOGY 12″EP

Antlers Mulm from Leipzig, Germany… recommended to fans of New Order but also of Solitude FX… melancholy, dreamy and catchy… GIVE AND TAKE 7″

We’we Got The Magic from a Black Hole, so I Call Your Name Satan. And I Wanna Be Your Puppy. But Need Money for Chicken Space Pie and Milk. Hvala.

Zsófi said: Jeeeeee

Pali said: Good! First song like Pixies, third like Movie Star Junkies. They recovered from The Cramps infection.

I say: Hard rock and roll psychedelia turns into country, blues, jazz’n back. Very playful and funny. My favourite moment when the easy rock and roll song I Wanna Be Your Puppy turns into Deep Purple’s Space Truckin’

He is JAKUB from our favourite Czech disco punk band I LOVE 69 POPGEJU

at RNR666 PARTY in Budapest a few years ago. His solo album

ARE YOU HUMAN? CONFIRMED.

will be released in November on MIK MUSIK, BDTA and FLESH&BRAIN. If you are interested to buy a copy ask them.
