Prima o poi doveva succedere…lo sapevamo che sarebbe successo, ma non avevamo una data precisa…lo intuivamo che era dietro l'angolo la svolta, ma un po' la temevamo, come si teme lo sconosciuto e l'incerto. Ma la paura è presto fugata. Nonostante il passaggio al cantato italiano, i The Death of Anna Karina non si smuovono di un millimetro dalle loro precedenti scelte sonore e continuano a sputarci addosso scomode verità con la stessa furia e lo stesso vigore. "Lacrima/Pantera", prodotto dall'onnipresente Giulio 'Ragno' Favero , è una nuova pietra miliare per il noise rock [...]
On his brand-new album I Wish I Was Someone Else, German singer Patrick Zimmer alias Finn uses a well-tried, though not very well-worn concept when covering mostly so-called classic radio smash hits from the 70s and 80s, Lo-fi production style. Flogging braindead horses like I Shot the Sheriff or Tina Turner's Private Dancer bare bones folkie-style doesn't make them the slightest bit more thrilling ... in short, it's all going nowhere in a hurry. With the exception of a quite upbeat cover of Ne dis rien, originally rendered by Serge G. and Godard favorite Anna [...]

The Goldberg Sisters is the new musical project from Adam Goldberg, the always entertaining actor/filmmaker whose impressive resume includes the likes of Saving Private Ryan, Dazed And Confused, Friends, Entourage, Zodiac, 2 Days In Paris and the Flaming Lips' Christmas On Mars. The band's 10-track, self-titled album (on Apology Music/Play It Again Sam) follows Goldberg's 2009 musical [...]
Jean-Luc Godard, one of the great masters of "La Nouvelle Vague", by carrying on screen "Pierrot Le Fou" in 1965, symbolizes the hymn to freedom, colors and love... A dreamlike atmosphere for a movie full of references to Art, Literature and poetry. Color is treated as an integral part through the repetition of red and [...]
Sono tornati. Dopo cinque anni di silenzio ecco ancora i The Death Of Anna Karina , una delle band più prodigiose e acclamate della penisola, capaci di infuocare da oltre dieci anni i palchi italiani ed europei. Tornano con delle novità importanti, tra cui la più significativa è senza dubbio un disco cantato totalmente in italiano, che segna la loro svolta definitiva verso la madrelingua. "Lacrima / Pantera" è questo, undici pezzi che non lasciano il tempo di riprendere il fiato, undici pezzi densi di disperata vitalità, che scorrono attraverso citazioni e riferimenti di un amore [...]
Panaframe just hit me with this new video for Yellow Ostrich 's I Think U Are Great . Instant win involving Anna Karina, never say never. Go get The Mistress right now!
This Saturday sees us back in The West Hill for another L'Amour Electronique [9pm-3am / 67 Buckingham Place, BN1 3PQ / Free Entry] Guests can expect the (un)usual mix of 60s yé-yé, Gallic pop, synthesized sounds, freakbeat, electronics and other delights. But this time there will be additional eye-candy in the form of some Nouvelle Vague cinema and music videos up on the TV. We've not decide what we're screening yet, but I'm eager to give this one a showing
Anna Karina was Jean-Luc Godard's muse, his starlett and his wife. She was the main actress in most of the films he directed and this includes a couple of my favorites: Pierrot Le Fou and Alphaville. I always thought she was hot, but I also always thought that it must have been weird for Godard to watch Jean-Paul Belmondo (possibly the coolest guy in the world) always play the romantic lead across from her. Anyways, here are some tracks for the francophile in you: Deejay Raph [...]
We premiered Pariah 's flawless remix of the xx 's " Basic Space " only a few days ago , and an enterprising fan has already put together this unofficial video, using oddly appropriate images of Anna Karina 's iconic performance in Godard 's Vivre Sa vie : mp3: the xx :: basic space (pariah remix) [thanks to young turks for the [...]
(Attention, titre à lire à haute et intelligible voix, de façon à bien profiter) Je m'en vais. Loin. En avion. Puis je vais m'allonger, sur un transat, sous un parasol. Un cocktail dans une main, un bouquin dans l'autre. Une jolie poupée à mes côtés. Le bruit de la mer, les grains de sables qui se collent partout, l'odeur de l'iode. Je vous laisse en bonne [...]

After Goth, and between Twee, I was a Ye-Ye girl. Perhaps because I started smoking at a young age, perhaps because I cut my own bangs, perhaps because I couldn't stomach being Mod... ...Perhaps because deep-down, I really enjoyed smiling. And if enthusiastic 60s-French girl pop doesn't make you smile then you're just a sad cunt. 'Roller Girl' is my favorite track of the ye-ye variety, full of sexual innuendo and fantastic girly growl sounds. It's from the lovely Serg Gainsbourg comedy 'Anna' and performed by the equally [...]
