TIT WRENCH has been founded as an electro-industrial-hardcore-punk band in the early 90s in Chula Vista, California. It was the best for me. I loved it. Then electro noise gradually put hardcore-punk out from the music, and finally there was just noise. I did not understand why they did this. Their last album released in 1997, after they went to a long hiatus. But recently they have reformed, new album is on the way. It will be the best for me. I will love it again.

„Juanita had a car and she liked the way I played guitar
She gave me little white pills and pushed a little too hard
Well my memory ain’t too exact but I saw some things that I can’t take back
Thirty days on the road is thirty days of livin hard”

NEW ALBUM OKEY DOKEY OUT NOW

from the interview

„My mother sent me over to grandpa for something. Everybody was sleeping, except Willie Nelson (multiple Grammy winner country legend) . He was sitting in the garden and offered me his cigarette. I asked him: what is this? He said „God’s gift to the suffering people.”

Christophe Clebard, a Belgian electronic musician, at the moment in Vancouver. His new cassette „Suce moi” will be released on 30th September by Canadian label Agony Klub.

Hard to categorize, but it is telling that he published music as Tucano on Italian NO=FI Recordings, home of strange other music (Hiroshima Rocks Around, Cheveu, Trouble Vs Glue, OvO, Dan Melchior, Maria Violencza and more). Of course RNR666 gave news from Tucano. Then I wrote about his music: psychedelic no wave disco with gothic and oriental moments. Then he used Italian, Polish and Englisn langueges, now he uses French. Some phrases what came to my mind by his brand new tape: minimal, electro, acid, techno, industrial, in 80s retro style, when the Belgian undergroung electronic scene was dominant. And it called a French music collective Grand Triple Alliance Internationale De L’Est to my mind, there are some similar acts like The Dreams, Klaus Legal or Cheveu.

Nagy öröm és megtiszteltetés számunkra, hogy a Goddamn Gallows után az amerikai hardcore country színtér egy másik kiváló képviselője JOE BUCK lesz a vendégünk szeptember 25-én Budapesten.

Joe Buck Kentucky állam egyik kisvárosában született. Még magyarországi mértékkel is kisváros, hisz csak tizenhétezren lakják. Egy farmon cseperedett fel. Elmondása szerint nem tud olyan korai emlékeket felidézni, hogy ne zenélt volna. A családban mindig szólt a zene, és mindenki zenélt. Tinédzserként elköltözött szüleitől, és ’79-től különböző nagyvárosokban punkoskodott, és – őt idézve – „zilliónyi punk bandában játszottam.”

Lakásában rendszerint üvöltött a zene, Ramones, Pistols, Clash, ilyenek. Egy nap becsengetett az egyik szomszéd, s így szólt: Amiket hallgatsz, az mind szar, tedd fel inkább ezt! Azzal átnyújtott egy Hank Williams Greatest Hits lemezt.

Na ekkor változott meg Joe Buck, azaz Jim Finklea élete TELJESEN. Innentől csak a country és az amerikai folk zene létezett számára. Ez a ’80-as évek elején történt, de a ’90-es évek közepéig nem játszott countryt, mert tudta, hogy a trükkök, fogások eltanulásához idő kell. Egyetlen zenekarának jelent meg lemeze ebből az átmeneti időből, a Gringo-nak. De ez sem punk zene volt, inkább Gun Club-szerű blues punk. Amúgy a Gringo mindkét nagylemeze igen jó kritikákat kapott akkoriban. Ezután a Legendary Shack Shakers-ben nyomult, ami egy viszonylag népszerű és elismert rock’n’roll zenekar azóta is.

Majd Hank Williams III oldalán találjuk, aki a nagy példakép és inspiráció, Hank Williams unokája, és country metal punk zenét játszik, amit ő csak Hellbillynek nevez, és tagja volt Phil Anselmo Superjoint Ritual-jának is. Joe Buck az ő Damn Band nevű kísérő zenekarában nagybőgőn, ill. Hank metál bandájában, az Assjack-ben basszusgitáron játszik.

One man bandként a kétezres évek eleje óta nyomul Joe Buck Yourself néven. Ugyan van pár CD-je, de a lemezkiadás nem nagyon izgatja, inkább a koncertekre összpontosít. Végül is állandóan úton van.

És hogy ki az a Hank Williams? Ő a country legenda.
Aki hátfájását alkohol és mindenféle drogok kombinációjával kezelte.
1953 január 1-én hajnalban egy Cadillac hátsó ülésén állt meg a szíve.
Mellette üres sörös dobozok, és egy befejezetlen dalszöveg.
Koncertre tartott. 29 éves volt.

És hogy ki is valójában Joe Buck?

THE GODDAMN GALLOWS play „gutterbilly” or „hobocore”, a unique blend of country, blues, rockabilly and rock and roll, „but still with just enough hardcore and punk influence to make your parents hate it.”

It was founded as a trio in 2004 somewhere in Michigan, in the heart of the rust belt. Once it was named as steel belt because of the grade of industrialization. The decline occurred gradually, as rust eats iron. It started in the middle of the past century, in the heyday of American dream. But a nightmare came to the end of the century: shrinking cities, abandoned industrial buildings and homes, high unemployment and crime rates – just because the economic courses were changed during the dreaming. For example there is Motor City, aka Detroit, where a music empire, the Motown, was established on the black workers. More than 1 million residents ran away from there, and the city lost 61.4 % of its population (1950: 1 849 568, 2010: 713 777).

The band moved forward West, where they lived in abandoned buildings, squatter camps, storage units and shoebox apartments, and mainly on the road. Where they picked up stray musicians along the way during endless tours, so the band is a quintet today, and you can find there such instruments like accordion, banjo, mandolin and washboard too. Fortunately their drive has taken them to Budapest at RNR666 PARTY. Here are more smashing shots about that frantic show by Márk Martinkó.

You can hear the latest album The Maker here. New album is coming in 2017.

In 1992 when the coach of the gothic country band Denver Gentlemen temporarily broke down David Eugene Edwards went forward with 16 Horsepower, while Slim Cessna has found his Auto Club, a christian, but apocalyptic country band. And so punk, that Jello Biafra signed them for his label Alternative Tentacles. (For what he was critizised by the dumb punk community.) But the new album ‘The Commandments According To SCAC,’ will be released soon by their own label SCACUNINCORPORATED in the US, and Glitterhouse Records in Europe.
