2 idei Goodbye Boozey lemez
Wayne Pain & The Shit Stains – EP (Goodbye Boozy Records) 2023
Ez az első lemez, amit 2023-ban elém evett a fene. Így kell indítani egy új zenei évet! Mármint, hogy a hangszóróból rád kiáltják: Hey-hey Fuck You!
Kansas City borzalmai a Wayne Pain & The Shit Stains már régi ismerősök, az ez előtti Ep a Feed The Dog is nagy kedvenc, meg a zenekarból ketten is benne voltak a FAG COP-ban, ami 2012-ben olyan koncertet adott, hogy nekem az simán ilyen top5 RNR666 Buli.
Négy szám, négy igénytelen, szemét részeg hőbörgés. Érdekes, minden számról bevillan valami videóklip ötlet.
Az elsőnek ugyan The Zoo a címe, de nekem valahogy az van a fejemben, hogy bebaszott, bedrogozott surmók balhéznak a cirkuszi állatok ketrecei előtt, az állatok meg ott visonganak, rohangálnak a rácsok mögött. Az aláfestő zene meg ez a Cramps szerű lepattant genyó. A második klip már a számcím My Daddy’s Got White Thrash Friends miatt adja magát. Részeg, idősebb arcok egy kocsmában gázoskodnak, kurvára nem fogják fel, hogy manapság már nem menő csajokat fogdosni, meg dohányozni is tilos már az ilyen helyeken és magukhoz ragadják a karaokegépet! Betesznek valami szar rock ‘n’ roll számot, amiből miattuk egy fasza Butthole Surfers szerű káosz lesz.
A következő Eye Blew My Mind című szám klipjét akár saját élményem alapján is le lehetne forgatni. Egy beLSD-zett és egy hótrészeg kilép a Trafik Klub ajtaján miután felkóvályog a pincéből, a hótrészegnél basszusgitár. A környéken lomtalanítás van, kidobott kacatok mindenfelé. Persze egy idő után ráröppennek az érdekesebb kupacokra (minden érdekes). Hazaérnek. Nincs meg a basszusgitár. Vissza megkeresni. Nincs meg. A zene amúgy engem a nagyszerű detroiti Clone Defects-re emlékeztet, belőlük lett később a Human Eye.
És az utolsó a Shut The Fuck Up I’m On The Phone itt már tényleg egyszerű a képlet, tényleg kurvára idegesítő, ha telefonálás közben valaki még pofázik is hozzád.

Qinqs – Qinqs (Goodbye Boozy Records) 2023
Öt számos kislemez két sráctól, akik mindenféle jobbnál jobb ausztrál zenekarokban játszanak, mint a Ghoulies, Kitchen People, Pensioner M.S.O.L. (Jó hír, a Ghoulies szeptemberben koncertezik Budapesten a Kriptában!)
Ez más mint amit eddig hallottam ezektől a srácoktól, ez totál Country Teasers inspirálta valami. A második szám kezdése meg teljesen The Fall. De a perpignani Sonic Chicken 4 vagy a honfitárs UV Race HOMO c. albuma is beugrik és lehet hülyeség, de én hallok benne valamit a legelső Cheap Time lemezből. Nagyon fasza, ritmusos egyszerű zene, de valami csavar van benne, lehet a monotonitása miatt. Nekem ez a dance-punk. Meg az ilyenek.

NO FUCKIN MAKE UP!
Ultra primitive destructive Italian garage punkers SLOKS have recently released their new album A KNIFE IN YOUR HAND on VOODOO RHYTHM RECORDS. Label boss Rev. Beatman says about them:
I saw them on a local alternative festival in Italy for the first time. It was so destructive and suicidal dangerous and amazing eye catching the same time. The female singer Ivy Claudy almost killed herself in her act strangling herself with the microphone cable and screamed as loud that she spit blood on the same time, Buddy Fuzz wanked constantly his guitar overdosing totally distorting and endless feedback. They were so negative and creative the same time… It was defiantly way too much for the audience and most of them left immediately except us… and they had to open the festival anyways hahaha… I was blown away of the energy the band… Their second album is another nasty piece of trash!!!!! Enjoy and book them if you wanna experience a live madness massacre!!!!!
„Szeretem elkapni a hullámot és ütni egy hatalmasat”
Nagyon kevés zenekar képes megérinteni. Kiváltani belőlem az üdvözültek mosolyát, és ezt a három szót: igen, ez AZ. Nem kell, hogy mestereik legyenek hangszereiknek, a lényeg, hogy legyen bennük az a kis plusz, ami nélkül legfeljebb közepes lehet bármi.
A JACKSON POLLOCK-kal véletlenül találkoztam. Unalmamban elmentem valami kis egy napos fesztiválra unatkozni, egészen addig a percig, míg színpadra nem léptek. Zenéjük első, sőt sokadik hallásra is, valami elbaszott nyers noise rock-szerűség. Viszont rengeteg mindent lehet felfedezni benne, és közben szemed le nem tudod venni Emilyről, a dobosról, és fogod mondani: Úristen, mit művel ez a nő!!!
És nem érted, miért pont egy absztrakt expresszionista festőről nevezték el magukat. Hát azért, mert Pollock pontosan úgy festett, ahogy Emily dobol, testének teljes erejével. És Pollock gyakran táncolt is festés közben, és ecset helyett pálcákat is használt. Képei első ránézésre olyanok, hogy naponta két ilyet festesz, miközben semmi gondod nem lenne az életben, ha egy eredeti lógna faladon. Ahogy a festő, úgy a róla elnevezett duó is megosztja a közönséget. A szigorú műítészek biztos borzadnának hallatán, de azért például az Obliviansnak megfeleltek bemelegítőnek olasz turnéjuk során. MÁRCIUS 11-ÉN BUDAPESTEN lépnek fel. Minek kapcsán feltettem pár kérdést, ami eszembe jutott:
RNR666 – Annyi hangszer közül, miért pont a dobot választottad?
Emily The Drunkard – Hát az úgy volt, hogy a dobos, aki megígérte, hogy próbál velünk, nem jött el. Ahogy várakoztunk, megpillantottam a szemetesben egy pár dobverőt. Kivettem, leültem a dobok mögé, játszani kezdtem és nagyon élveztem.
– Rengeteg dobost láttam már, de olyat, mint te, még soha. Amit dobolás címen művelsz, az rendkívüli. Milyen hatások formálták játékstílusod és kik a kedvenc dobosaid?
– Bruce Lee. Remek dobos válhatott volna belőle. Egyébként sosem tanultam dobolni, ez csak úgy jön belőlem. Szeretem elkapni a hullámot és ütni egy hatalmasat.
– Olyan erővel ütsz oda, hogy meg kell kérdeznem, mennyi bőrt és dobverőt használsz el évente?
– Bőrt nem sokat, dobverőt viszont rengeteget, azért is, mert általában a legolcsóbbat vásárlom.
– Hogyan születnek dalaitok?
– Gitár riffekből. Ezek általában a kanapén heverve születnek. Aztán lemegyünk a garázsba és a többit kitomboljuk magunkból.
– Sok mindent vélek felfedezni zenétekben, például kraut rockot vagy a hatvanas évek garázs rockját. Mi az igazság? Milyen zenék hatottak rátok, mi az, ami inspirál?
– A legjobb, amikor véletlen meghallunk egy dalt, ami elkap és magával ragad, ami száz százalékig személyes és kendőzetlenül őszinte. Akiket a legjobban szeretünk: Sonic Youth, No Age, CAN, Janis Joplin, Lighting Bolt, The Horrors (the garage band from US, not the emo guys!), Ramones, Le Belve, Zeus! A kedvenc dalom, amit a végtelenségig bírok hallgatni, az Abba Zaba Captain Beefhearttól. Na az mindent visz.
– Teljesen egyértelmű volt, hogy a zenekar neve nem lehet más, mint The Jackson Pollock?
– Kedves kérdés. Talán.
Ha valakinek lenne még kérdése, március 11-én este felteheti.
A koncert – ahol fellép még PIRESIAN BEACH – felejthetetlen élmény lesz: sötét, hipnotikus kezdés után, könnyed agyszétverés. Másnap frissen és vidáman ébredsz. Kivéve, ha nagyon berúgtál. De mindenképp hálát fogsz adni magadnak, hogy milyen jó, hogy ott voltál.

All about the Sloks’s Holy Motor album
Brand new band in the Voodoo stable, first album and here right away! Well deserved! It immediately made it to my favorites from this publisher, right next to Come N ‘Go, Roy & DMC and Destination Lonely. Their story of how the publisher and the band found each other is already pretty good. Beat Man was attending some festival in Italy where Sloks opened the whole event. That early, the audience was not yet prepared for Buddy Fuzz‘s manic feedback orgie, for the drummer’s primitive beats, and for the singer’s actions that could have been interpreted as attempts of suicide. Accordingly, the tent where they played got emptied quickly; everyone went for a drink or who knows what. Not so with Beat Man, who was so impressed by the band’s negative, destructive, self-threatening energies that he immediately offered them a contract after the concert and sent them to Lo Spider‘s studio in France to record a full album! The end result speaks for itself; it has become the best debut album of the last few years (at least for me). It’s rock and roll, after all, but an extreme, fucked up version of it that is totally not there to provide some light entertainment. I can’t make my mind up whether their lyrics are about using hard drug or deep depression, but they are about some fucking heavy shit for sure. I can liken their stage performance to something like a person in need who is unable to ask for help, or if she finally does, she does it in such a way that the first thought in most people is to flee from her as fast and far as possible.
Zsírúj banda a Voodoo istállóban, első lemez és egyből itt! Teljesen megérdemelve! Nekem egyből a kedvenceim közé léptek a kiadónál a Come N’ Go, a Roy & DMC és a Destination Lonely mellé közvetlenül. Már a sztori is elég jó, ahogy egymásra találtak (mármint a kiadó és a zenekar). Beat Man valami fesztiválon volt Olaszországban, ahol a Sloks volt az egész rendezvény nyitó produkciója. A fesztivál közönsége kora este még nem volt felkészülve Buddy Fuzz mániákus feedback orgiájára, a dobos primitív ütemeire, na meg az énekesnő öngyilkossági kísérletnek is felfogható színpadi akcióira. Ennek megfelelően ki is ürült a sátor ahol játszottak, mindenki húzott sört venni vagy mittudomén. Nem így Beat Man, akit a zenekarból áradó negatív, destruktív, önveszélyes energiák annyira lenyűgözték, hogy egyből a koncert után szerződést ajánlott nekik és Franciaországba küldte őket Lo Spider stúdiójába, hogy vegyenek föl egy teljes lemezt!
A végeredmény magáért beszél, szerintem az utóbbi pár év legjobb bemutatkozó lemeze lett ez (mánmint nekem). Végül is rock n roll ez, de annak a szélsőséges, elbaszott, totálisan nem a könnyed szórakoztatást elérni kívánó ága. A szövegekről nem tudom eldönteni, hogy a keménydrog használatról vagy a mélydepresszióról szólnak-e, de kibaszott súlyosak egytől egyig az biztos. Az előadásmód meg olyasmi, mint egy segítségre szoruló aki képtelen segítséget kérni, illetve ha mégis megteszi, azt olyan módon, hogy az első gondolat a legtöbb emberben az legyen, hogy meneküljön a közeléből minél előbb, jó messzire.

GOSPEL OF LUCA
Do you know Luca? The colourful Italian musician from The Ultra Twist, Trio Banana, Trans Upper Egypt, Duodenum, Centauri, and RAWWAR? Who also is a visual artist who made clips for Ty Segall, Thee Oh Sees, Country Teasers and a lot of others. And has collages too:
PALI: Hey Luca! Long time ago that I did an interview with you (in the Ultra Twist times). Since you’ve moved to Rome from Siena, The Ultra Twist split etc. Anyway where are you living and what do you do there?
LUCA: Hi, Bro’! After Rome I moved to Milano where I lived four years. There, I did new band with old friends who lived in Milano too. The name of the band is Centauri, we make weird country/folk/psychedelic non-sense stuff.
I tried to continue to play with bands in Rome: Trans Upper Egypt, Trio Banana and Duodenum, but it was too difficult, so I quit TUE, ‘cause I didn’t enjoy more. Trio Banana is on-standby, we never really quit but we can’t play together now. But Duodenum is a very hard band to play often.
Number 71 Monobanda, the man who plays with me, got many bands too, and he lives between Napoli and Rome. Very hard to meet each other in a year, but we are like brothers, so for us play is something more than make gigs and shows. Duodenum will never quit.
In Milano I have started my solo project Tab_ularasa 2-3 years ago. I did many records and tape and maybe too many gigs around Italy. That’s my main project now, and I’m working on a new record. It will be very experimental and different from records done before. Hope to finish soon and to put out it after summer.
Tab_ularasa make punk/folk for children and crazy people. I play alone only with guitar and sing very weird songs in Italian. In the end of 2016 I have gone back to my countryside in Tuscany and I will stay here this year.
PALI: You have got a new band RAWWAR after Trio Banana split.
LUCA: Like I said before, Trio Banana never really split and maybe we will play in the future, but not now. But Trio Banana’s drummer Gabriele Doctor Dead and I never stop to play. When I come back to Rome we play in a rehearsal room. At the start we didn’t want to make a new band to make gigs but only keep to play together, have fun, write new songs and make records.
PALI: You and Dr Dead from Trio Banana, but who is your second guitar player, please introduce him!
LUCA: After few practices we did 9 songs and a cover (Don’t Make Me Kill Again from Urinals) then we decided to make records. I spoke about that with Michele Zufux from Ferrara, one of my best old friend from Ultra Twist time. He was in a fucking great band called Larsen. They’re almost unknown, but for me Larsen is one of the best Italian bands ever. Now he plays in For Food and Dead Horses also from Ferrara, different style of music but really great stuff. We spoke in chat about that, I sent him our songs, he liked them so much that I asked to join us with his guitar to record. We were in Ferrara on a weekend last October. We never play together before, and we recorded three songs of the 1st RAWWAR tape. It was a magic day, we did everything live with only two microphones like a live gig, so we were lucky too.
Some week later Alessandro, a new friend from Teramo, did a very great master and we put out the tape on Bubca Records last March. We wanted to make a 7” but was not money, and maybe there would have been even no sense, ‘cause we don’t play so much live. We live far each other and even here in Italy the situation is quite sad for a band who play garage/punk… There is a kind of little “mafia” to book gigs, and obviously we’re not inside that stuff. The bigger festivals prefer to give a lot of money to American mythological dead bands from the 90s instead to make a cool garage/punk underground festival with new bands. They live in the past. Here in Italy the majority of “underground” people live in the past. This is not punk/rock for me. I always hope to discover, listen and see new bands. Otherwise I’m just so happy to make this tape, to play music with my friends and that’s all. If people will ask us to play it would be better, but if not, nessun problema, we will keep playing in some garages that we enjoy much than play in a shitty venue or festival.
PALI: Not long ago RAWWAR put out its debut tape on your own Bubca Records. Those three songs remind me something like Cheater Slicks between Country Teasers and a bit like early Demon’s Claws. It’s rawer and more direct and less psychedelic than TRIO BANANA was. What do you think?
LUCA: From the start Gabriele and I wanted to make something more weird and repetitive like the old blues/punk stuff. The bands that you mentioned are some of my favorites, but we have tried to find our way to play RAW the primordial blues like did Cheater Slicks, Country Teasers and Demon’s Claws. We like so much Can’s first album, Velvet Underground’s weird stuff, Gun Club. We love too Neu, Oneida’s first records and so many other stuff, but when you make music you have to try to find your own way.
PALI: Please talk about the process of recording. I think you like to do everything as basic as you can.
LUCA: Sure! We recorded in this way ‘cause we did not even time to make it in a different way. I didn’t recorded RAWWAR, Mauro from For Food & Dead Horses helped us and Michele did the rest. We used a cheap multitrack recorder with two mics and we set the level of sounds just before start. I have learned lo-fi tricks from Falconx, the guru who has made my theremin and recorded many garage records in the 80s. If you want warmer sounds and really feel the people’s energy who play then the best way to record everything live, even the voice too. Sure it’s more difficult, ‘cause you have to know and try where put the mics, how sounds moving at the place where you record, and mostly you have to be lucky because when you play at high volume you can generate shitty feedbacks and distortions. Here in Italy we said “La Fortuna aiuta gli audaci”, I think in English they say: “Fortune favours the bold”, and maybe there is a Hungarian version too. (Of course: „Bátraké a szerencse.”) This time we were very lucky… hope next time too.
PALI: And your copy technic is unique I think hahaha! Do you buy some shitty tapes on a flea market and copy your music on it? How do you do this?
LUCA: Almost from the start, Bubca Records make tapes using second hand/recycled tapes. Now vinyl seems new fashion. There are some shitty dynamics to make it but if you don’t book a Euro tour it does not make a sense at all to print it. Making tapes it’s a kind of new little fashion, but it seems like to live in the past. CD is dead, the new world goes in a different way. Maybe we should discover new way to pass underground music. The task of the avant-garde in art has always been be ahead, but now young people make new stuff and invent things from very young age for multinational factories. The few people who make true DIY garage/punk stuff are like dinosaurs. We are dinosaurs, we’re going to extinct soon. I don’t care about that, I’m keeping to make my stuff but I hate nerd punks who think that the old way to make records is the True & Sacred. They are the Worst! For me, make records with second hand tapes is a kind of ironic action, and I don’t want to pollute the world with new plastic too, the worlds is already polluted enough. I find tapes in some flea markets and when I duplicate stuff I do not delete the end of the original music, so if you don’t like RAWWAR you can listen Laura Pausini, Tiziano Ferro, Adriano Celentano or classic music. Cheers!
PALI: You do all of artwork as well. Do you have got own copy machine?
LUCA: Yeah, I make artwork, collage or draw for my records. If I make a record for other bands I always ask them about the artwork, if they do not want to make it, then I do it. Almost all old Bubca Records stuff is a B/W xerox copy, but we did some colour cover too. Our first coloured cover was made for the first Trio Banana EP “Baby Save My Soul”. If a collage or a draw is colored we keep it coloured. I don’t have own copy machine, I just go to a cheap copy shop. To get a copy machine and buy ink is more expensive.
PALI: You booked last year a mini tour for The Rebel. How was that? What kind of guy Ben Wallers? I think he is one of the weirdest guys nowadays in the R’n’R underground. Is it right?
LUCA: Make a tour with Ben was one of the best things done last years. Ben is not so weird as he seems, he’s very kind, smart and cool guy. Making music is the most important thing in his life, like for me, so we have become true friends. I hope to make new tour with him sooner or later.
PALI: Please talk about the last few Bubca Records release!
LUCA: We’re not so active now as we were before, but I’m trying to keep Bubca alive. Before RAWWAR, the last record was Pist Idiots, an amazing new young band from Australia. I love them!
PALI: What are you main active project now?
LUCA: Main project is my solo project Tab_ularasa, but I hope to play more often with RAWWAR, Centauri and Duodenum. I enjoy more playing in a band that alone.
PALI: Please recommend us few cool Italian bands what are active now and you really like!
LUCA: My favorite Italian band is For Food from Ferrara. I love them from the start, they play furious noisy post punk music. Great songs, great atmospheres. They are true friends. Their first record is a masterpiece.
PALI: Future plans with RAWWAR? Anyway it’s a cool name! So rad.
LUCA: The name of the band was an idea from Michel. I suggested The Hobos but that sucks. Gabriele got no idea about that. Michele told us RAWWAR and then we were thinking: “AMAZING!!”. You can say RAWWAR like the lion of Metro Goldwyn Mayer does before an old Hollywoodian movie: ROUUUAURRR!!!
PALI: What’s your favorite local liquor?
LUCA: My favorite local liquor is a kind of stuff that you drink here after eating a lot. It’s called Nocino. It’s a walnut liquor made by monks, but not easy to find real Nocino. The best I had was in Teramo countryside last week!
Thanx Pali, I hope to come back soon in Budapest to play.

Take a Nightride with The Pussywarmers
from the sunset till the sunrise
THE PUSSYWARMERS is a Swiss band. I wrote some years ago about them
„The Pussywarmers is a band of a traveling circus. They play swing for the rope-dancers, blues for the knife thrower, tarantella for the lion tamer, dixieland for the magician, cha-cha-cha for the trapezists, tango for the bears, polka for the poodles, waltz for the monkeys and criss-cross for the clowns on four languages.”
They have recently released the Nightride EP under the name of THE PUSSYWARMERES & RÉKA’S ELEKTRONISCHE ABTEILUNG via Annibale Records. And it is totally different than their previous recordings. So I have had to ask what is the story of this project?
Réka: At the beginning of the year we introduced „The Pussywarmers & Réka’s Jizz Ensemble” which represents our „Tropical Big Band”. For the new record we decided to strip down to a quartet: „Elektronische Abteilung” which means „Electronic Department”. It´s a concept for an „Alter Ego Band”. Inventing this band in a Band-Project lead to more freedom in the creative process of composing and recording.
We have a hideout in the mountains of Italy where we are only allowed to play in a low volume. These situations forced us to play around with loops which we kept on sometimes for hours. This sounds and loops created sometimes states of hypnosis. In this new found state we also started to experiment with new sounds and instruments. For „Nightride” we wanted to capture those moods and used instruments that would reflect perfectly those nights. From the sunset till the sunrise.
„Nightride” is very cinematique, so a big influence – for this new way of writing and recording music – were definitely movies. In Zürich exists the Institute of Incoherent Cinematography. Pablo Assandri – the head of IOIC – organizes silent movie events to which he invites musicians to create new film scores for these movies in a live situation. He invited us a couple of times and we loved it. To compose music to images is a very different approach. Music can be created which would never arise in normal practicing situations. Characters and scenes of the movie can become your muses. For example we played for Fred Niblo’s film The Temptress (1926).
