LAMONT THOMAS is maybe best known as the drummer of blues punk legend THE BASSHOLES, but he has started a very own project as OBNOX some years and eight albums before. „His approach to punk is well… punk as fuck. Thomas doesn’t care about rules and he certainly isn’t afraid to experiment, blending his sound with noise rock, hip-hop, garage, soul, and hardcore. It’s usually abrasive and often pretty steeped in political and social consciousness, he speaking as a voice for the oppressed without gimmick or pandering” – as Post-Trash Mag wrote about him and I just could write the same.

A few years ago Monofonus Press head Morgan Coy had that crazy idea…why not ask OBNOX to make a free jazz record? And he has made one. Morgan says about it: Although it may not directly sound like it, to these ears it’s an updated take on some of the late 70’s free jazz LP’s that, at the time, were panned by critics but now are being rediscovered… think Albert Ayler’s „New Grass”, Archie Shepp’s „Attica Blues,” Larry Young’s „Fuel”, even reminds me of Tony Williams Lifetime at times. OBNOX has infused „templo del sonido” with that same sense of urgency and protest.  Like the 70’s, we are once again in a time of protest and discontent with the world around us – as Thomas so elegantly states in the first lyrics of the album:

„wake up… wake up… America… wake your punk ass up!”

Perhaps you are afraid of jazz, even more free jazz, but this album is so much punk than jazz. It needs your open mind only:

Anyway his previous recordings were released e.g. on punk rock’n’roll label Slovenly or noise rock one 12XU.

KÖZÖS BULI BUDAPESTEN AZ AURÓRÁBAN

2018 JAN 28 VAS >>> KORAI KEZDÉS: 18:00!!!

FELLÉP >>>

USÉ (Fr)

Egyszemélyes formáció az Usé, amit Nico Eduard hívott életre 2011-ben. Dob, ének, dobverővel csépelt gitár és mindenféle torzítók, effektek. Kb ez a hangszerpark. A végeredmény valahol a Neue Deutsche Welle (pl. D.A.F.,Malaria, Kosmonautentraum stb.), a korai Einstürzende Neubauten vagy a  szintén francia Ich Bin vagy a kortárs Klaus Legal féle agresszív, hideg, de mégis táncolható zenék környékén leledzik.

Nico rengeteg zenekarban játszik és ad ki lemezeket, jó pár éve Budapesten is fellépett Headwar nevű NOISE rock formációjával. Akkor bennem egy nonkonformista szakadék punk benyomását keltette, kinyúlt pólójára filctollal ráírva: Butthole Surfers. Ehhez képest akár meglepő is lehet, hogy szülővárosában, Amiens-ben, egy helyi lap az olvasók szavazatai alapján az „év emberének” választotta. Vagy az a tény is furcsának tűnhet, hogy LE PARTI SANS CIBLE nevű pártjával cél és ok nélküli programmal indulva a szavazatok 2.17 %-át sikerült megszereznie a polgármester választáson.

YOU ARE THE MAYOR, YOU ARE THE FIST!

JESSICA 93 (Fr)

2010-ben alakult Párizs 93. kerületében, a francia királyok temetkező helyén, Seine-Saint-Denis-ben, ahol mindig nagyon erős volt a baloldal, még a kommunista párt is, ahol a legmagasabb a bevándorlók és az egy főre eső futballisták száma, ahol a bűnözési ráta is országos bajnok, a rendőri hatékonyság viszont hátul kullog.

Geoff kezdetben egyedül nyomult: gitározott, basszusozott, énekelt. Az ütemet dobgép adta, nevét pedig a tervezése/fogantatása idején neki szánt lánynév. Már a legelején kialakult az a lehangoló, de érdekes dallamokkal teli, enervált és mégis agresszív zene ami ugyan mára kicsit finomodott de mégis ugyanaz maradt. Az évek során több zenész megfordult a zenekarban, most négyen vannak. Ilyeneket szoktak emlegetni a J93-al kapcsolatban, hogy: No Wave, Cold Wave, Post-Punk, Shoegaze….és ezek azt hiszem meg is felelnek a valóságnak:

27-én  délután 6:06 – 7:07 között a legkisebb kiadók legfrissebb lemezei a KILLBONOCLUBban BUDAPESTEN a KERET KLUBban

AMERICA FUCK is the product of living with toxic politics as the foreground; attempting to complete life’s menial tasks while filled with both rage and despair.

AMERICA FUCK is the duo of dark electronic artist Lana Del Rabies – who sings and plays synth bass – and Brian Miller from such great bands as

Foot Village – a drum-n-shout assembly,

Gang Wizard – psychedelic experimental krautrock, new album out now and it’s astonishingly fuckin’ good,

and True Neutral Crew – the Deathbomb Arc Records experimental hip-hop supergroup. He plays drums and electronics.

STATEMENT: Our first album Fertility Clown calls upon the brash immediacy of 80s political punk, the swirling disembodiment of free jazz, shoegaze’s resonate escapism, and the grim despair of goth to create a set of emotional tones that simultaneously are cooperative and combative.

And every song is a manifesto spiced with thoughts of French sociologist Marcel Mauss

„What is „society” for me?… Historically, kingdoms and empires have rarely been the most important reference points in peoples’ lives. Kingdoms rise and fall; they also strengthen and weaken; governments may make their presence known in people’s lives quite sporadically, and many people in history were never entirely clear whose government they were actually in.”  And so on

DEATHBOMB ARC

They steal the works of the inventors and the treasures of the wise. Culture, they call their theft — and everything becometh sickness and trouble unto them! Just see these superfluous ones! Sick are they always; they vomit their bile and call it a newspaper. They devour one another, and cannot even digest themselves.”

CREAPOPOLVSQVE

„Our mission is make LOVE for make PEOPLE.”

and make hot ambient industrial & horny drone noise

Mentula Aurum cassette on NO=FI Recordings (Italy)
(Mentula Aurum means Golden Dick in Latin)

CREAPOPOLVSQVE = Katzy and Matzy, aka Stefano and Valentina.

I know Stefano from noise rock band Hiroshima Rocks Around, and noise wave duo Maximillian I°.

Valentina as Mushy plays Cocteau Twins-like haunted minimal synth (Three Legged Cat and Clandestine Recs), and as Phantom Love fabricates kraut cosmic trance (Mannequin Recs).

Ben Greenberg (ex-The Men) and Michael Berdan (ex-Drunkdriver)

are in UNIFORM.

It’s an industrial metal machine, like the Ministry was.

But most telling about the world of UNIFORM the artists they like:

Pier Paolo Pasolini, Hermann Nitsch, Monte Cazazza, Helios Creed

Second album WAKE IN FRIGHT OUT NOW on SACRED BONES (US)

Berdan says about lyrics: Thematically these songs have more in common with the works of Hubert Selby, Jr (Last Exit to Brooklyn) than Lucio Fulci (City of the Living Dead). These are stories about people at the end of their proverbial ropes. Their old medicines are no longer effective and their old ways of living cause them nothing but confusion and despair. They are paralyzed by fear, regret, and self-doubt.

Greenberg says about music: This music is our response to and our reflection of the overwhelming violence, chaos, hate, and destruction that confronts us and everyone else in the world every day of our lives. When we play, I don’t feel powerless anymore. I hope this record can help others transcend their anger and frustration.

Anyway

USA was having trouble
What a sad, sad story
Needed a new leader to restore
Its former glory
Where, oh, where was he?
Where could that man be?
We looked around and then we found
The man for you and me

And now it has begun. Dismantle Obamacare – build a wall (Chinese Great was ineffective, Berliner stood for 28 years, many people were killed when they tried to cross, it was demolished by the citizens in 1989) – use water torture –  climate change and environmental pollution do not matter. And the lies are just „alternative facts” by Counselor to the President, Kellyanne Conway, who thinks herself as a patriot.

„You want to know something? We are still in the Dark Ages. The Dark Ages – they haven’t ended yet” – wrote American writer Kurt Vonnegut in his novel Deadeye Dick.

LANA DEL RABIES is the solo dark experimental electronic project of American media artist Sam An. She creates rhythmic chaos from digital and analog sources. Combines beats, noise, synths and a passion for horror soundtracks into a futuristic brand of goth that still loves the technologically curious days of early death rock.

„Everything feels messy at the moment. Expresses all of our fears with this appropriate cover of David Bowie. Cthulhu release us all.”

– I was travelling in Java when the first McDonalds went up: it was like, ‘for fuck’s sake.’ The invasion by any homogenized culture is so depressing, the erection of another Disney World in, say, Umbria, Italy, more so. It strangles the indigenous culture and narrows expression of life – said Bowie about his 1997’s song „I’m Afraid of Americans.” It was co-written with Brian Eno. He has written recently

„I think Donald Trump is a complete disaster. And Brexit is a disaster too. That said, what I think is an even greater disaster is that we in the US and the UK – and increasingly the rest of the world – live inside political systems that can produce absurd results like these.

We now see political careers built upon lies and deceit and encouraged by openly biased media organisations, more concerned about revenue and ratings than giving the public real information. Democracy assumes an informed public: it doesn’t work if the media are corrupt.

Changing the faces at the top doesn’t alter anything if the whole machinery beneath them stays the same – the rich become the super-rich, the middle class stagnates and the poor get poorer.

My hope – the only hope really – is that Trump in office will reveal himself for what he really is, and that the public will roundly and unequivocally reject him and everything he stands for – his terrible policies, his jingoism, his arrogance, his childishness, his lies, his prejudices and his small-mindedness. In rejecting Trump we’ll also start to take down the whole malignant media-political structure that so lovingly nurtured him.

As I’ve written before, I believe that Trump can turn out to be not the beginning of a long decline, but the end of one – the turning point. For 40 years we’ve been sliding into a deepening pit of inequality, fear-driven nationalism and conservatism, and mostly not noticing.

Trump’s presidency could inadvertently change that – not because he’s going to do anything right but because his election is energising people to come to grips with the fact that their political system is fundamentally broken and it’s time to do something about it.”

30 Years Anniversary Tribute Album for the Monsters

A tavaly 30 éves Monsters zenekar születésnapja alkalmából egy három lemezes sorozattal kedveskedett nekünk. A harmadik egy Monsters dalokat tartalmazó feldolgozás album. Tizenöt dal – azaz a bakeliten csak tizennégy, mert a Roy & The Devil’s Motorcycle tizenkét perces Pony Tail & Black Cadillac átirata csak a CD-re fért fel – de nem kell megijedni, mert a Voodoo Rhythm Records-nál évek óta a vinyl lemezhez automatikusan jár a CD is. Vannak a lemezen az istállóhoz tartozó bandák, és vannak baráti csapatok innen-onnan, kábé fele-fele arányban.

Jó az egész lemez, meg érdekes is, hogy ki, hogyan alakítja át saját képére a dalokat. Nekem egyértelműen a lemez második felén található hármas tetszik a legjobban, a 9-10-11. szám, amit akár ipari blokknak is nevezhetnénk, de legalábbis no wave-nek. Mindegy.

Sudden Infant kezd, ami Joke Lanz alteregója, aki a 90-es évek eleje óta készít noise / experimental felvételeket – de tonna számra! – és mint extrém body art művész is ismert. Az ő száma itt a More You Talk. Ezután Helios & Hess jön, akik a svájci ipari csapat, a Herpes Ö Deluxe tagjai. Velük készítette Beat-Man tíz éve a csodálatos Reverend Beat-Man & The Church of Herpes nagylemezt. Itt szerintem Monsters lemezekről vett hangmintákból vágtak össze egy dalt némi gitár gerjesztés és fémcsörömpölés kíséretében. A blokkot a Bigeneric, azaz Marco Repetto zárja, aki a legutolsó ‘M’ című albumról dolgozta fel a Let Me Spend A Night With Your Wife című dalt, és kreált az amúgy egyszálgitáros kesergőből egy minimál pszichedelik valamit. Ha a 90-es években egy DJ ezt rákeveri valami big beat lemezre, biztos hogy beőrültem volna! Nem mellékesen Marco Repetto 1977 és 80 között Bern – innen való a Voodoo Rhythm Records, és itt található a Voodoo Rhythm lemezbolt – első punk zenekarában a Gluemas-ban zenélt, ami később Grauzone lett, és volt is egy német nyelvterületen slágerlistás daluk, az Eisbar, amit éppen ő írt.

Nagyon fasza album, végül is az egész lemez nagyon jó, vannak beindult trash’n’roll-ok (The Sex Organs, The Devils), punk cuccok (The Failed Theachers, The Seniles), érzelmesebb dolgok (Dylan Walshe) vagy exotica (Ronaldo Bruno és Nicole Garcia, akit meg is tudsz hallgatni!). Borító űber, mint általában, nem Facebook barát, belül rengeteg sosem látott fotó a zenekarról.

Az ünnepi sorozat első lemezéről ITT a másodikról ITT írtunk.

Happy birthday Monsters, jó egészséget, meg minden!

Rare that I want to post a song just because it caught me. Usually those are related to record releases, so this is a rare moment.

READY ORPHANS is a new band from Detroit that consists of members of hardcore punk band The Armed, hardcore metal band Tharsis They, and indie pop band Zoos of Berlin. Lead singer Cara Drolshagen shrieks over blissed out noise. As happy as hardcore can get. Their first public track is an industrial-like noise rock song, it comes the Canadian band Odonis Odonis to my mind
