Smell swamp psych garage blues rock by The Ukiah Drag

„In The Reapers Quarters” LP and digital on Wharf Cat Records (US)

FUTUROSCOPE is a theme park, a stupid high-tech multimedia Disneyland in France, in Vienne Departement. If you go thereabout rather choose the goat cheese and the wine! But also is a French band with perfect references. Unfortunately there’re just a little, but luckily increasing bunch of people who knows about the great little label in Texas, Monofonus Press, and the magnifique petit label in France, Cockatail Pueblo. Led Er Est, Shit and Shine, John Wesley Coleman, The Golden Boys, The Pheromoans, The Rebel, Trans Upper Egypt, XYX (is my absolute favorite there), perhaps these are the most well-known band on Monofonus. Well, I think after these, it is absolutely needless to mention the bands of Cocktail Pueblo (look those!). The Futuroscope’ records were released by them. The French trio (from Tours, with a member of Pneu) plays psychedelic ritual kraut space rock, often it twists into ecstasy

cassette by Monofonus or digital from Bandcamp

Little oriental and surf influenced Finnish psychedelic rock with some members from the death/thrash band Deathchain. Jess & The Ancient Ones have been personally selected by King Diamond himself to be the openers on his tour.

Two London based bands
an all female post punk noise rock band with French singer and Turkish bassist:
Savages (Matador Records) &
an all Japanese psychedelic rock band, similar to another Japanese band, Boris:
Bo Ningen
are in a special collaboration

London 2012. Savages are recording the debut album. In the middle of an intense three weeks, they set out one evening to see the band Bo Ningen. A few days later producer Johnny Hostile begins to muse over the possibility of two bands playing in the same space at the same time.  Concurrently Gemma Thopson of Savages is reading about the performances at the Cabaret Voltaire.

“Zurich in 1916 and Hugo Ball is instrumental in creating the Cabaret Voltaire – a club which will become central to the performances of the Dada movement, during which the artists would experiment with forms of sound poetry and simultaneous poetry. A movement created through the horror of World War One, it attempts to understand how society has reached such an illogical decision. Through simultaneous poetry begins the attempt to delve into chaos and maelstrom, to find the voice of the individual struggling to be heard. We decide to approach Bo Ningen with the idea of collaborating on a Sonic Simultaneous Poem.”

The idea begins to take shape in early 2013, they prepare for both bands to rehearse together in a studio with a loose composition based around five chapters. As the musicians of both bands consider how to apply themselves with their instruments to each chapter – revolving, colliding and intertwining with words sang in Japanese, French and English. They also envisage the physical space in which to perform.

„We imagine a stage in a large u-shape to contain as much of the audience as possible in the centre. The two drummers next to each other at the ‘bottom’ of the u, then leading around symmetrically (facing each other): guitarists, bassists and singers at the tips of the u-shape. Bo Ningen have a guitar extra, so we hang one from the ceiling to hit as you would a gong. Eventually we fix a date and a space for what we believe is a one-off performance that we name „Words To The Blind.” It was performed at The Red Gallery, London on May 29th 2013. The 37-minutes long track will be released on November 17th by Stolen Recordings (UK) and Pop Noire Records (France).

Snippets from the performance

They will do it again together this on 19 November at the Oval Space, London.

Every time I glad when Orval Carlos Sibelius comes forward with new records. He is a French multi-instrumentalist, who make music in really various styles from abstract electroinc dance to psych folk pop. His music often comes the world of Deerhhof in my mind. But now something almost completely different: psychedelic noise rock with a special taste of kraut-rock with Domotic, King Q4, My Jazzy Child and Aurelien Potier under the name of Centenaire. And it’s also excellent.

Centenaire – Ste Croix EP on Clapping Music (France). Previous Centenaire album

Albums of OCS: Recovery Tapes (2011), Super Forma (2013)

There’re some mistakes: Orval Carlos Sibelius is no more in the band. He left after the previous album (The Enemy, 2009). And King Q4 is not in the band either, he just a guest sometimes… but not on the new EP. So Centenaire now is just Damien Poncet (My Jazzy Child), Stéphane Laporte (Domotic, Egyptology) and Aurélien Potier…

Thank Julien for correction

You can also buy albums on vinyl and digital formats directly from the band
CDs only from the label

On the road as a Mexican band
– Alberto: There might be excitement about the fact that we are from Mexico but it’s not like we get more beer at the shows or that nobody steals records from our merch table while we’re not looking. In the end we’re just treated like any other band. Which is cool.
– Lorena: Sometimes people practice their spanish with us, so it’s fun.

Chairs In The Dark

by White Fence from the album Cyclops Reap on Castle Face in 2013

new album in this month on Drag City Records (US)

Trouble Books are an Akron (Ohio) based experimental pop duo. Lejsovka & Freund are their side project. They play „DIY shitty classical” music with a little Michael Nyman feeling on piano, cello, clarinet, bass clarinet, violin, computer, synthesizer, and voice. „These pieces are made by and for the view from huge sunroom windows overlooking a wooded ravine. Hopefully that honesty comes through.”

Amazing heavy psychedelic space rock by White Hills. It has started in New York in the early 2000s, because Dave W. (guitar) was dissatisfied for previous bands and decided to start his own one. In the early recordings he played on every instrument alone, but then has found a fix mate, the bassist Ego Sensation. Dave W. was also discontented with the audience in the US, so they went to tour in Europe, where are roots of their Hawkwind, Pink Faires, PIL, NEU! and Amon Düül II influenced music. The first White Hills album on label released in 2005 by Julian Cope’s Fuck Off & Di Records in England. Since then they have been releasing their works continuously by various labels. And they are a really active band. Their second album (which was  self-released on limited edition CD in 2007) will be re-released in August

Glitter Glamour Atrocity LP/CD on Thrill Jockey Records (US)

Euro tour in September!

Extended, almost 26 minutes long live version of The Speed Of Fear by English alternative rock band Gallon Drunk from their recent album The Soul Of The Hour is free to download. A 7 minutes long version:

For the fans of psychedelic rock.

Two San Franciscan hippies (one is guitarist of Wooden Shijps) thought that touring is easier thing for 2 persons than a full band, but realized just all the burdens are divided into two parts. But since last European tour the burdens are divided into three. It was the first case that the band was touring with live drummer, who joined the band just in time for a tour, but finally has become a member.

In Ravenna (Italy) their show was recorded. It will be released in August on Sacred Bones Records (US). It is an extremely limited edition of 2000 most of which will be available from the band on their upcoming European and US tours.
