1999, fine millennio e roba del genere. Tra le altre cose esce il primo 103 della Constellation . Lo realizzano i Sackville . Cinque canzoni per un gruppo che ha girato anche fra Glitterhouse e Mag Whell Records . A tirare le fila Gabe Levine (poi in Black Ox Orkestar ). " The Principles Of Science " anticipa tanto delle miscele avant folk post duemila, con un'eleganza rara, fra ambiente e melodie concrete. Uno di quei dischi che, almeno ogni tanto, vanno tirati fuori. Per il semplice concetto dello stare bene [...]
Ace is the "wild guy in the group" who likes doing mad trickz on his bike, while "AZN Thunda" AKA Brett has a "hard exterior but a soft inside, just like mochi (being from Asia of course)". This is the bio provided of Teengirl Fantasy – actually consisting of Oberlin College students Nick Weiss and [...]
Some things bear worth repeating. Feu Thérèse is one of them, as I feel exposing their music right now would be dramatically more effective than it was in 2007, when I found myself gushing over their debut, Ça Va Cogner. They had apparently split that same year, but their permanent elusiveness had prevented anyone from [...]
Black Ox Orkestar are awesome. They play an acoustic weird-folk take on traditional Yiddish and eastern European song, but because they are from Montreal many people react to them as if they are a post-rock ensemble. This is surely proof of something. What you need to know is that Di Khasene is taken from their 2004 debut, Ver Tanzt? , it is full of ache and yearning, and very fine indeed. It is also played completely straight. I suspect that the music of Black Ox Orkestar being at odds with their [...]
I came across this crazy word "epistrophy" while listening to Frank Lowe's Fresh. Botanically it means recovering of form of anomalies. Epistrophy was also a jazz standard composed by Thelonious Monk and Kenny Clarke in 1942 ( wiki ). This word at once reminded me of branches, roots, the mad way they creep - as if a crazy dance which intrigues to creep into your mind and grow inside you. Then only yesterday, quite accidently and luckily I discovered Roots of Madness from a friend. The band was found in 1969 in CA [...]
"Our schools look like prisons, and our prisons look like malls" Horses in the Sky -- A Silver Mt. Zion I saw A Silver Mt. Zion with Black Ox Orkestar at the Middle East last Wednesday night. An amazing show. My review for Bostonist should post later today or tomorrow. I'll link to it when it's up. If you don't know, A Silver Mt. Zion was formed by Godspeed You! Black Emperor's Efrim Menuck, Sophie [...]
