GG King – Evoker Tape (Whispering South Wind) 2022

Van pár olyan zenekar, amikről mindig elfelejtkezek évekig vagy legalábbis hosszú időre, pedig nagyon kedvelem őket. A GG King pont ilyen. A GG King-et Greg King hozta össze a Carbonas feloszlása után. A Carbonas volt a legnépszerűbb banda a Black Lips után az Atlanta-i punkszíntérről a 2000-es évek elején/közepén. A Carbonasnak 2008/9-re kampó és Greg King elkezdte a GG Kinget. Az első kislemezek meg az első nagylemez az még simán punk volt, de a másodiknál már megjelenik az a fura szorongó, klausztrofób hangulat, ami keveredik Greg King sokszor kifejezetten pop-os énektémáival. A 2021-es Remain Impact-en már bejöttek a himnikus, post punkos dalok, meg pár más zenei műfajból átvett elemek (3 demóverzió >> ITT <<). Ha jól emlékszem ’21-ben az volt a kedvenc lemezem.
Az Evoker Tape-en már keveredik minden, full szabadon van engedve az egész. A lemez úgy indul, akár egy ’90-es évek elctro-industrial lemez: kimért tempó, szinti, német nyelvű hangminta. Ebből hirtelen dub-ba megyünk át. Innen Black Metal-ba. A Trudging Towards Twilight doom-os an indul, de az ének már teljesen más, mint amire számítanánk (mintha Andy Kerr az eredeti NomeansNo gitáros Hissanol zenekarában lenne hasonló. na, de azt már tényleg nagyon régen nem hallgattam) a szám vége meg heroikus, kicsit mint a Yussuf Jerusalem vagy a Jack Of Heart.
Aztán egy feldolgozás a brit Television Personalities első, 1981-es lemezéről a Silly Girl megtoldva jó kis pszichedelik gitárral. Majd egy jó hc/punk őrjöngés fél percben. Végül egy 5 perces dobgépes, szintis Lo-Fi-pop szerűség kábé a szép emlékű Eat Skull modorában.
Nagyon jó kis sötét hangulatú és változatos nem egészen húsz perc ez. Állítólag lesz (vagy már van?) egy Glittering Insects nevű projekt, amivel ezt a vonalat viszik tovább. Kíváncsian várom.

Rododendrons – Demo (RoachLeg Records) 2022

Észleléses, Palántás, satöbbis Vili ajánlotta ezt a demót, hogy biztos tetszik majd nekem, ahogy ő fogalmazott ez a
„fasza orgonás, oi-os rockandroll.”
Hát tetszik is nagyon! Mind a négy szám nagyon ütős, én sem tudok mást mondani : fasza, orgonás Oi-os Rock n Roll!
Két zenekar tagjaiból álltak össze unaloműzésből. Az egyik egy Boston-i Oi-Punk ( The Stance ), a másik meg egy Chicago-i Raw-Punk ( Mock Execution ) banda. A bostoniak szerintem kurvajók, akár azt is mondhatnánk rá fúziós-Oi.
A Rododendrons zenéjében persze ez a vonal a dominánsabb.

New Buck Biloxi : Cellular Automaton (Total Punk) 2022

Ó, igen! Buck Biloxi (azaz Rob Craig) visszatért! Emlékszem, olyan 10 éve volt mikor szénné-szarrá hallgattam a The Spits lemezeit, mekkora öröm volt az első Buck Biloxi & The Fucks nagylemez. Ugyanaz a Ramónesz alapokon nyugvó, kibaszott fogós punk, mint a The Spits-nél, csak még minimálabban, még elbaszottabb hangzással. Na aztán pár év alatt sikerült szénné-szarrá hallgatni azt a lemezt is, meg amik ezután jelentek meg. Megmondom őszintén kicsit el is feledkeztem róluk, mikor is 2020-ban (a semmiből) a Goodbye Boozy kiadta a ‘Put You To The Gulag‘ kislemezt és fellobbant a régi láng, meg is rendeltem a 3 számos kis mocskot, de lassú voltam. Egy hét alatt elkelt mind a 200 példány.
Ennek is már két éve. És szintén a semmiből idén novemberben kijött az új nagylemez, sőt új a zenekar is. A végéről lekerült a ‘Fucks’, előre meg oda került az, hogy ‘New’. Amúgy ez az első Buck Biloxi cucc, amin nem mindent Rob Craing játszott fel, itt énekel, meg gitározik, a basszuson nem tudom ki játszik, a dobon viszont Benny Divine nyomja, aki már járt RNR666 Bulin a Natural Child-al és ismer valakit, aki személyesen ismeri Gibby-t a Butthole Surfers-ből. Hahaha!
Az új lemez nagyon-nagyon jó, csak kicsit rövid: nyolc dal, tizenhat perc. Első pár hallgatás után kedvencem a ‘New Band‘ és a ‘My Hole‘.
Engem egyáltalán nem zavar, hogy az egész sokkal jobban szól, mint ezelőtt bármikor, semmit nem vesz el a zene punkságából.
Több mellékprojekt is futott régebben, érdekes módon azok nekem többnyire nem nagyon jöttek be, kivétel a Giorgio Murderer szinti-punk cucc és a ‘Holographic Vietnam War’ album és a youtube-on lévő koncertfelvételek!!!
Egy interjúban olvastam, hogy Rob-nak nem tetszik, ha Buck Biloxi-t beteszik abba a ‘buta zene’ / ‘buta punk’ dobozba. Teljesen igaza van, ez a zene nem buta és kurvára nem buta embereknek szól igazából.

Alien Nose Job : Stained Glass (Total Punk / Anti Fade) 2022

Na, itt az év vége, oszt kibasszák itt nekem az év lemezét! Mintha hájjal kenegetnének, baszdmeg! Full AC / DC: a riffek, a szólók, az ének, a megszólalás, minden! Na jó, belekeveredik egy kis Rose Tattoo, meg talán némi Cosmic Psychos is itt-ott. Szóval ez az ausztrál Rock N Roll, annak is elit-krémje.
Az első dal a ‘Beatles Vs. Stones’ mán egy akkora AC-is boogie, hogy akinek ez nem tetszik az nem rocker, az is biztos!
És ilyen dumák: “The argument has no meaning and the notion always stinks/
Everybody knows the answer to the question is the Kinks.”
Na másodiktól a ‘Post Punk Poser’ -től falnak mész, az biztos! Az AC/DC és Rose Tattoo együtt szpídezik!!! És így telik el ez a kellemes fél óra a legvégéig (na jó, az utolsó két dal kicsit másabb, kicsit lazább).
A ‘RnR Rubbish Bin’-ban ez a duma is megér egy misét: “We’ve all made a point of recycling what’s been done/
Similar to the originals but sucking out all the fun.”
Az, hogy ki hozta ezt össze engem meglepett: Jake Robertson az Ausmuteants-ból, ami inkább egy punk / postpunk zenekar.
Emlékszem volt egy év, talán 2014/15 amikor a RnR undergroundban szinte minden róluk szólt. Adták ki a jobbnál jobb kis és nagylemezeket (ilyen kiadóknál, mint a Goner, Goodbye Boozy, HoZac, Red Lounge, Total Punk), turnéztak Európában és mindenki be volt szarva a koncertjeiktől, hogy mekkora póver van ezekben az akkor tényleg nagyon fiatal ausztrál srácokban.
Nálam 2022 Top5-ben benne van az fix!

Curleys : Curleys (Total Punk) 2022

Az amcsi banda első nagylemeze, 11 dal 14 perc alatt. A srácok valahol azt írták, hogy őket aztán kurvára nem érdekli, hogy majd a lemezüket ki, melyik 80-as HC/punk lemezhez hasonlítgatja és kurvára nem kíváncsiak a kis szakértelmedre ebben a témában.
Az biztos, torzítatlan gitár még nem szólt ennyire mocskosan!

5. SARAH SHOOK was born in Rochester, New York. She was homeschooled and grew up in a fundamentalist Christian family where music was restricted. In high school, she taught herself acoustic guitar. Inspired by artists such as the Sex Pistols, Elliott Smith and Hank Williams she started her first country band, Sarah Shook and the Devil in 2010. But now here is her second album with THE DISARMERS on Chicago BLOODSHOT RECORDS.
The album YEARS is about finding a way. A way through exhaustion, depression, betrayal, hangover after hangover, upper after downer after upper, fight after never-ending fight. It’s about picking yourself up and dusting yourself off after years of being trampled and beaten down, jutting your chin out, head high after they’ve done their worst, and shouting: Fuck you!

were the basic ideas of British punk band Mekons when it started, but before their first gig in a punk festival the organizer told them – Fast songs or there is no show for you. So they played on double speed. After the show a man went to them and said: – Hey you are really great, I would like to release a single. Later when NME wanted a picture they went to a field and somebody made some shots from miles. After reject they built figures from coat hangers and took photos of them. Finally a photographer was sent by the music mag to crown the failure.
More later Mekons guitarist Jon Langford moved to Chicago in 1992 and discovered the similarities of country and punk, and formed alternative country bands as Waco Brothers (with a former Revolting Cocks and KMFDM member!) and Pine Valley Cosmonauts. Now here is his brand new album with FOUR LOST SOULS on BLOODSHOT RECORDS

The Mallissimal Movement born in the 50’s in St-Petersburg by self-taught Russian musicians who took an interest in old Siberian sacred rituals. The French CERCLE DES MALLISSIMALISTES is devoted to the research, preservation and diffusion of Mallissimal Music. Recently they recorded a work of an Italian far-leftist terrorist and composer Faustina M. Todesco who left the Music School of Milan before graduating to join The Red Brigades. It formed in 1970 and sought to create a „revolutionary” state through armed struggle. They attained notoriety in the 1970s and early 80s with their violent attempts to destabilise Italy by acts of sabotage, bank robberies and kidnappings. Their most infamous act was kidnapping and murdering ex-PM Aldo Moro in 1975. But Faustina M. Todesco quit from the organization in 1974 and fled the western world and left activism for mysticism. Later she killed herself in the river Seine. But I don’t believe these things. I think these are just the game of the fantasy, but I like them. And as always in the Mallissimal Movement, the matter is electro-acoustic trance.
LE CERCLE DES MALLISSIMALISTES: F.M. TODESCO – I TRE ANGOLI DEL CONTINENTE. Album on KYTHIBONG/ LES POTAGERS NATURES / MON CUL C’EST DU TOFU / LA REPUBLIQUE DES GRANGES RECORDS (All F)


The Yugoslavian underground was very strong and rampant in the last decade of the South Slav confederacy with many great and strange artists like the Slovenian Laibach, Borghesia, the Serbian Disciplina Kicme, the Montenegrin Rambo Amadeus, the Croatian Satan Panonski, the Hungarian Bada Dada, and lots of others. But I heard about Macedonian underground artists nothing. Until recently when the various artists album „Magare i muzika” (Donkey and Music) has been released on BALKAN VELIKI RECORDS.
It’s a surprisingly good and colourful album about the Macedonian underground from indie pop new wave via psych-folk punk to electronic beats. And exception of Dj Zdena – who played at RNR666 Party in Budapest – and Bernays Propaganda – who makes tours in Europe often – there are totally unknown artists for me. But there are not just Macedonian artists like the Croatian Lutajuci Dj Zdena or the English Membranes because they were also released by BALKAN VELIKI. And at the moment I have realized that hc-punk jazz fusion band Mnjenje is Serbian. So this album represents a wider region, what means the ex-Yugoslvaian underground is strong and rampant. But unfortunately there are two horrible hard rock songs in the middle of the album:
Anyway, I was curious about the Macedonian people, and it has turned out they are descendants of orthodox Slavs who did not run away and did not become Greeks, Bulgarians or Serbs during the last 150 years. After waves of different national proselytization some of them realized that anyway they are Macedonians. At first officially the separate Macedonian ethnicity was recognised by Communist International in 1934 because Soviet Russia wanted to use the network of Internal Macedonian Revolutionary Organization to revolutionize the Balkans. Funny, that year the organization was banned and dissolved in Bulgaria where it was state within the state. But after this they could manage to kill the Yugoslavian king and – if he already was there – the French Foreign Minister in Marseille same year within the framework of Croatian – Italian – Hungarian cooperation.

Punk among the last things come to my mind from Pakistan. Rather a short, but hard story of a young country: bloody secession from India (1947), and of Eastern Pakistan (Bangladesh, 1971), Kashmir, violent power games, and millions left it behind for a better life. How total the chaos there nowadays?
Hassan: The usual. Life trudges on despite the numerous national tragedies we’ve faced over the years. I’ve become desensitized to the usual power games and propaganda, because otherwise it is very easy for someone to lose their sanity if they focus only on Pakistani news. I would rather use my free time to detach myself from the chaos, and study the complex power structures at play.
Are you the Dead Kennedys of Pakistan?
Hassan: Nope. We had no intention of being that. Musically we are different, and we would never like to be considered “this or that” band of Pakistan. We’re just making music we can relate to, regardless of who we’re influenced by or where we come from.
Your hardcore is like the Finnish. What are your music influences?
Hassan: I don’t know how accurate that comparison is, but yes – Finnish hardcore is one of my favorite styles. Tampere SS, Terveet Kadet, Riistyet, Mellaka, Rattus, Kohu-63 are some bands I enjoy a lot from the scene. To an extent, I guess hearing punk music in Finnish (as well as in Japanese, Swedish, Spanish, etc) actually inspired me to do vocals in Urdu.
Basim: Yeah the cold crusty stuff is great. I end up playing so much rock stuff and listening to it when we are recording, in my spare time I try to mix it up.
Punk and underground music scene there?
Hassan: It is small, close-knit but with a potential to grow. However, people lack general enthusiasm for music, so the entire situation can be quite hopeless sometimes. I have been putting on shows, been in different bands, run zines etc for the last 7 years and it’s always an uphill struggle trying to maintain the DIY ethics.
The Pakistani society is conservative – at least I think so. What is the reaction of the society for punk?
Hassan: Conservative societies make for great motivation, in a perverse sort of way. If I didn’t get ostracized for my speaking the truth, I would not have this rage inside me nor the desire to shout on a microphone.
Basim: Sadly nowhere has been immune to these right wing morons. They hold power in Hungary, could very soon do so in France, can’t really make head to tails of what’s happening in Poland, USA is going down the toilet, and the UK is so far up its own ass (and by referendum!) Fuck Victor Orban & everything he stands for.
I have read your lyrics.
„Hammer and sickle, a slogan of the people / But what was achieved? / The people got fucked / Since then we’ve been crying, while all the bastards keep looting” (Democracy is the Best Revenge)
„Bread, clothing, medicine / A small house to live in / Give me free education / For I am a Muslim too” (What is the meaning of Pakistan?)
You are seem disillusioned. Democracy is the best revenge for what?
Hassan: Who knows? You’ll have to ask the Bhutto family for that answer, it’s their quote.
RNR666: Reputedly it was said by twice prime minister Benazir Bhutto, but we can not ask her, because she was assassinated in 2007 two weeks before the next election. She was the first woman elected to lead a Muslim state.
Are you students or/and workers or/and aliens?
Hassan: I concluded my education last year, and am currently working. Sheraz is finishing his education, and Basim lives and works most of the time in the USA.
What is your opinion about Pakistan Antarctic Programme?
Hassan: I don’t know too many details about it. I know there is a Jinnah Antarctic Station by Pakistan, but the public hasn’t been disclosed much information.
Basim: That is where the mothership is located!
RNR666: I have asked this because so strange that a young country with so many social and political tensions is running an Antarctic programme – anyway that station is named after the founding father of Pakistan, Muhammad Ali Jinnah. I am sure it is just because India is also running one.
But now here come The Real Bhuttos!
Benazir father’s Zulfikar Ali Bhutto founded the family business Pakistan Peoples Party with the slogan „Islam is our faith, democracy is our policy, socialism is our economy. All power to the people” in 1967. He was president between 1971-73, and prime minister between 1973-77. Military coup 1977. He was accused of murder and after a show trial he was hanged in 1979.
After the execution Benazir was imprisoned until 1984. Her brothers Shahnawaz and Murtaza fled the country and founded a terrorist organization in Afghanistan. Tried to assassinate Pakistani military dictator general Zia-ul-Haq more times. Shahnawaz died suddenly in his 26th year in France in 1985. It is said by poison.
Murtaza went home after seventeen years, but because did not get desirable position formed a maverick fraction inside the party. He was sought by the police on the charge of inciting attacks on two CIA centres. He was killed along with six other party activists in a shooting affair when the police tried to arrest him during Benazir’s second government in 1996.
After the killing Benazir was removed from office on corruption charges. She was given jail sentence together with her future president husband, but she went into exile. After eight years she went home to run on the elections in 2007. She was very careful, two days before her homecoming wrote her last will.
They all lie in the home of dead Bhuttos. It was built by BB. It ‘s beatifully harmonizes with the slogan of Pakistan Peoples Party: Roti, Kapra or Makaan, id est „Bread, Cloth and Shelter” for everyone.
