They say when one door closes, another one opens. That seems to be the case with our good friend, the absurdly talented Rahman McGinnis. It's no question to me that the-zero-element is amongst the most talented of any of the bands coming out of Louisville. Rahman's experience traveling and playing with People Noise has lended a dedication, focus and outside perspective to the Louisville scene that is all too rare and is supremely valuable. While a series of gigs around the city had generated some buzz, the band has been holding back, biding it's [...]

People Noise will be at The Pour Haus with Trophy Wives and The Art on April 3rd. People Noise is Zeke Buck (founding member of VHS or Beta ) and Matt Johnson (former member of Boom Bip). But even still, they're not what you'd expect. They're far less electronic than you're imagining, and a bit more rock, and completely ignoring the 80s synth. Think more of JAMC or My Bloody Valentine. Check out their album Ordinary Ghosts . These guys epitomize what our music scene here in Louisville and throughout the US is [...]

Homegrown Music Series - People Noise Fourth Street Live! continues the 2nd annual Homegrown Music Series, featuring People Noise w/ DW Box & One Long Song, along with The Fervor. People Noise has been compared to the earlier alternative rock band sounds of Smashing Pumpkins, Nirvana, and Radiohead, yet keeping a sound and style that's all their own. This FREE concert is Thursday (sept 11) and starts at 7:00 p.m.

Saturday at Forecastle was a constant assault of great band after great band & for those that missed Saturday, in my eyes, you missed Forecastle. Leading up to Forecastle, when JK asked me who I was most excited for, without a moment of hesitation I replied Snowden . For me, this was a no-brainer. With Jordan leading vocals, and Corrine diverting everyone's attention, these kids make some incredible dance rock, and, as it is far and away my favorite genre of music, it made for an incredible show. If you're a fan of VHS or Beta, and since you're [...]

Well, here we are, at part 3 of my year end blow out. I'm coming into the home stretch here with the albums that I continually came back to over the course of the entire year. Without further ado I'll escort you through yet another list of ten superb albums from 2007. 20. All Teeth and Knuckles - Club Hits to Hit The Clubs With If there were ever a perfect ironic, post-hipster, club ready album released, All Teeth and Knuckles would already be two steps ahead of it. The [...]
Time for another round of mp3s that have been sent to (Okay, not me but muruch) by various bands, labels, and pr people. Some are good, the rest aren't really my taste but others may like them. If so, buy the albums at Amazon , CDBaby , Insound , or the band's websites. Condor Moments - Lord Protector Milk Collector [...]

I've been meaning to write about People Noise 's debut album Ordinary Ghosts forever now. It's been out since May, so I have no excuse for taking this long to do so. The band is composed of former VHS or Beta guitarist Zeke Buck (of 10 years) and former Boom- Bip member Matt Johnson. Put the two together and you get a high voltage sound that's dense, fuzzy, and loud most of the time (somewhat reminiscent of earlier Smashing Pumpkins ' work - try A Million [...]
The Pumpkins newbie not doing it for you eh? Well, perhaps you should be sizing up some of the new kids on the block. Well, not exactly brand new in this case seen as People Noise main man Zeke Buck has been around for a bit with VHS or Beta. Still unsigned but getting there People Noise have nonetheless managed to release their debut album 'Ordinary Ghosts'. 'Killing Fields' is a prizefighter

Head out to the Lucas School House to catch fellow St. Louis-blogger Your Standard Life's first showcase, uh, show this Saturday, featuring People Noise , Stella Mora and Jason House, in his first solo performance since leaving Ghost in Light. MP3: People Noise - The Killing Fields

Nach über 10 Jahren VHS or Beta hier nun die Nachfolgeband von Zeke Buck: People Noise. Zwar noch unsigned, stehen sie aber sicher in den Startlöchern für die große Show. Mit ihrer bisher selbstverlegten CD "Ordinary Ghosts" ziehen sie einen Rockbogen von Radiohead, Smashing Pumpkins über fuzzy Shoegazing a la Ride. Hochgehängte Vergleiche zwar, treffen aber vom Sound durchaus zu und gefällt mir durchaus. Also, auf die CD warten und hier zwei Tracks zum Download: People Noise - The Killing Fields MP3 People Noise - A Million Lives MP3 [...]
(No Ratings Yet) Loading ... Si parlava di anacronismi musicali, e di come in fondo la discografia attuale non necessitasse di un ritorno degli Smashing Pumpkins. E si parlava di quanto comunque l'ultima fatica di Corgan fosse di qualità più che buona, e che insomma, se si guarda a quel disco senza voltarsi indietro a rivangare il passato, il giudizio che ne esce è ancor più positivo. Mi capita di ascoltare,poi, questo esordio [...]

Svona var á Roskilde ! Þá er maður mættur aftur í netheima eftir dágott frí. Pósthólfið hjá mér er gjörsamlega yfirfullt af tilvísunum í nýja tónlist og svo á ég fyrir hendi afar tímafreka og strembna yfirferð yfir MP3 blogg víðsvegar um heiminn. Hér er smá brot af því sem ég hefði fjallað um hefði ég ekki verið í fríi: [MP3] Afuche - Gaspar Noe [MP3] The Coathangers - Parking Lot [MP3] Alex Dupree - Las Meridanzas [MP3] Kinetic Stereokids - Have A [...]

Well after only hearing a little bit of People Noise from Louisville KY I had to mention these two guys. People Noise is Zeke Buck, ex-guitarist from VHS or Beta on vocals, guitars, etc and Matt Johnson on the drums formerly from the band Boom Pip. Both of these guys have toured the world and extensive backgrounds in electronic music. It's rock but what caught my attention was the melodic shoegaze pieces of the tracks that set me off into a mood I can only describe as floating. It's the heavy guitar, I'm sure [...]

So what is this fuss all about People Noise ? I didn't know if I'd be on the band wagon for them...(pun so totally intended), but after streaming the album I have to say I like it and so I like them. "People Noise is a name that constitutes sound, and a lot of it." Not sure if I agree with that statement because some of their sounds are very mellow. But yes, when you listen to "Sedation" there is a lot of noise going on. They've been making music for only [...]
We've been slack with our inbox lately, meaning that you get more new artists and more awesome to tunes…have a listen… People Sound As the world breathlessly awaits the new Smashing Pumpkins album, People Sound are already on top of the whole big guitar thing. Throw in some Aphex Twin and Radiohead into the mix and you've [...]
