High Fidelity Experiment: Smile - Maquee
Artist: Fu Manchu
Found 26 posts matching Fu Manchu:
I first heard Smile at the ripe age of 14, back when KDF was still 'the' rock station in Nashville. They had a nightly show, 'Top 9 at 9', er something like that, and for a few days in 1994, I think at the top of that list, was a track by Smile, 'Staring At The Sun'. Something about it grabbed me. It was new, dark, spacey (outer, not Kevin), huge. Different. Lemme back up a bit. At this point in time, I was just beginning to look beyond what my scattered teenage brain considered the mainstream. It [...]
If you have a certain band name, you're a lock for a Halloween show. Case in point: Fu Manchu plays Double Door Saturday, while Electric Frankenstein comes to Beat Kitchen . Both bands bring the rawk. Fu Manchu rode the stoner rock wave about a decade ago as Queens of the Stone Age was just getting notice. Electric Frankenstein, a scuzzy hard rock/punk kind of band, has been around for a long time and put out a number of albums. But like Fu Manchu, the band has little more [...]
Ever since I first viewed the phrase on a souvenir t-shirt in the Wisconsin Dells at a young age, one personal mantra - that I'd "try anything once" - has stuck with me. The mantra has resulted in experiences of varying degrees of success. [ On a scale of 1-10: a night out at the race track (1) , dating a woman (1.5) , working as a magician's assistant for a week (5) , eating a fried cheese curd (10) .] But no matter what the rating, each experience certainly taught me something [...]
Anyone who has listened to "Godzilla" with Blue Öyster Cult knows what a great song it is. When you hear it as the opening act, with downtuned guitars and a massive wall of sound, on a Fu Manchu concert, you just freak out! I was 30 years old when I saw them at KB in Malmö, but I acted like I was 17... There is a good chance that Are We Ape also like Fu Manchu. Not that they are some kind of clones, but the sound with downtuned instruments and fuzzy [...]

Send it to crustcake@gmail.com by beatmasterspeech (LA) Whether they're singin' about muscle cars or traveling to the center of the earth, Fu Manchu are most likely always stooooneeedddd. Most 'stoner rock' fanatics cite the band's In Search Of album as the pinnacle of their stoner career (see Decibel 's [...]
As we've already mentioned , EAR FARM will be hitting the road tomorrow to head down to Austin, TX for South by Southwest .

The Fu rockt und rollt am Sonntag Abend, 11. November, das ehrenwerte Zürcher Mascotte am Bellevue. Die sandigste Band der Welt kommt mit ihrem härtesten Album " We Must Obey " im Gepäck und mit einem Tross voll Strand-Buggies und Monster-Vans. Wrumm, Wrumm! Alle Aargauer, Thurgauer und Agglo-Zürcher mit ihren tiefergelegten und sonstwie getuneten Dreckschleudern, sollen doch bitte mit ÖV anreisen, denn ihr wollt doch nicht, dass euch ein Van die Show stiehlt! Hits wie "Pigeon Toe", "Mongoose" und natürlich "King of the Road" werden uns straight back to the Stoner-Rock-Ära zurückbefördern. You must obey! Fu Manchu - [...]
Aside from me drunkenly ruining Fu Manchu's show for many other fans in attendance earlier this year I've had nothing but positive feelings surrounding Fu Manchu's latest, We Must Obey . The album is fairly strong, especially in comparison to the band's last outing Start The Machine . However the video for "Hung Out To Dry" detracts from the music with its low grade b-movie theme and...well, just its general ridiculousness; oh well, it was good while it lasted. (more...)
I know this isn't a particularly original question. Indeed, it's a rather tired, cliched one that I've often seen trotted out in weak stand-up comedy routines and small-talk circles. But I'm going to ask it anyway: What is it about cars that turns men into drooling, acerebral, aggressive baboons? I ask because two separate incidents over the past week each brought the query to mind. Two times that led me to ponder whether castration might actually be a useful tool for social control. I usually drive into work fairly early each [...]

Free MP3: Nebula - “The Dagger”
Eddie Glass formed stoner-rock outfit Nebula out of the ashes of his former band, Fu Manchu, in 1997. Well over a decade later, the band's primordial psychedelic mix of guitar-driven mayhem and raucous fuzzed-out power chords sounds as menacing as ever. With a newly-tweaked lineup, Nebula will unveil its latest collection, Heavy Psych , on Tuesday via Tee Pee Records. The album serves as the full-length update to last year's tour-only EP of the same name. Have a listen to "The Dagger," and smoke 'em if you've got 'em. Nebula - "The Dagger" [...]

It's Casual: The REAL Los Angeles
Think of a Black Flag version of Local H and maybe you can start to imagine It's Casual. The first time I heard this power duo, they were playing at the DIY-esque Relax Bar in one of the least glamorous parts of Hollywood. These guys give off the intensity and charisma of a thrash band twice their size; my attention was equally split between the singer/guitarist Edward Solis and the drummer, who goes by the name W.C.E., as their technical skills belied the grungy setting and simple-seeming lyrics. It's Casual's brand of song [...]
AMG's Stoner Classics [pt. 1]
I was perusing AMG's top two tiers of classic stoner rock tunes, and couldn't but think that might be a good guide for an S2S post (or series of posts). I can't say I personally agree with the selections, but it would be a fantastic guide for a beginner. Song: Gardenia Artist: Kyuss Album: Welcome to Sky Valley Comments: A beloved classic, and a favorite of mine, though I'd probably put "50 Million Year Trip (Downside Up)" at #1. There was actually a video for this in rotation on Headbangers Ball. Yes, [...]

by beatmasterspeech (LA) If once is not enough for you, how 'bout three times?

Appropriately titled 'C U LaTour,' this tour will be the last for Ministry; they are hanging up the old road dog boots.
