Photo by James Jardine . Arriving at the amphitheatre for the first time on that warm Friday morning my convoy and I could barely contain the anticipation that had building for weeks. But we had finally made it to the Meredith Music Festival for 2012. As we all scurried about setting up our tents, we made it on time to the opening of the festival by one of our very favourite’s of the year, POND . No stranger to their live show, POND provided their usually blend of psychedelia and rock to a crowd [...]

La banda que visitó nuestro país en 2011 en el marco de la gira Screamadelica , por [...]

Los señores de Primal Scream se despidieron, a finales del año pasado, de Mani , su bajista, quien ocupará ahora su tiempo en la reunión de The Stone Roses. Pero esto no ha detenido el camino musical de la banda ni la preparación de su nueva producción la cual, hoy ha confirmado su productor, David Holmes, a través de su página en Facebook , ya está lista y será publicada este año con el nombre de More Light . [...]

Los muchachos de Primal Scream acaban de terminar el proceso de post producción de su nuevo disco, que, gracias a un aviso realizado en Facebook , sabemos que se llamará More Light . El décimo LP de la banda inglesa llegará a las bateas en el mes de mayo. El productor del disco, David Holmes , usó la popular red social para avisar que el disco ya está terminado. En septiembre del año pasado, la banda también había avisado que estaba completada la [...]

It seems their new album will be titled More Light , and will be released in May if producer David Holmes is anything to go by. Holmes took to Facebook to break the news: "the new primal scream album is sequenced and mastered…its called “more light” and will be released in may…one love! X"

Here we are at the start of the series that I mentioned a few days ago to take us to Acid Ted's fifth birthday. This half of 50/Fifty is for coming up tunes. Two tunes a day. Here are the first two. To start, something perhaps a little unexpected. At #50, Slow Bongo Floyd. Hardly well-known, and from the UK, they were led by Mick Jones and came from a psychedelic background before getting into acid house in the early 90s (more here ). That perhaps is one reason for choosing them - they represent the move [...]

Por Juan Pablo Lima Cada vez que se cruzan los caminos del cine y el rock, los resultados pueden ser geniales o lamentables. Desde espectaculares obras musicales como Tommy y Hedwig and the Angry Inch , pasando por comedias dramáticas más modestas como Almost Famous , hasta bodrios del calibre de Last Days , la mezcla de disciplinas artísticas ofrece matices de lo más heterogéneos. En este contexto, se podría decir que Michael Winterbottom pertenece al selecto [...]
"Everybody still yearns for the old bands." That was the message emanating from the Happy Mondays' longstanding vocalist Rowetta Satchell when we recently convened with the expressive Mancunian and now deeper within December, her belief couldn't be more explicitly vindicated. Shaun Ryder, Bez et al. have the north of the capital covered, whilst Liam Howlett & co. button down the hatches and take the south by storm, Brixton caught up in a hefty whir of trance-scented ex post facto revelry. Tonight is neither today, nor yesterday, nor even yesteryear but a violent throwback to a decade long [...]
Hello, and welcome to Monday. And so we begin: as Bryan Ferry once conceded on Roxy's itself straight-up sublime If There Is Something number from their eponymous début effort, "to keep a straight course not easy." And however the weekend just gone treated you, he, for one, has done his fair share of slicing himself up with that straight-edge lifestyle and allowing in all manner of ill. Though why the witter? Well, because it is down a comparable pitfall of elaborate overindulgence and limitless intoxication the length and breadth of England itself that the Happy Mondays so often [...]

Facebook Everyone has heard the old saw about bands having "a lifetime to write the first album, a year to write the second". Similarly, most people can think of an instance or two of "sophomore slump" being more than just a clever bit of alliteration. London's Veronica Falls seem set on not letting the former be any kind of obstacle and sidestepping the latter entirely. Their self-titled debut came out just over a year ago, but they've just announced the follow-up. Waiting For Something To Happen will be out [...]

Nasıl bilmem o duyguyu... Kendiminkiler yetmezmiş gibi, geçmiş ve gelip geçecek bütün insanların aşklarını ve ölümlerini taşımaktan bitkin, gidip yatsam, gidip yatsam... Ölmesem belki, ama ölmüş gibi yapsam. Bir çarşaf örtseler üzerime, hayır başımın üzerine çekseler, yalnızca çeneme kadar, kolumda bir serum; yemek yemesem... Kimse bana birşey sormasa, ben hiçbir şey söylemesem... Derin bir sessizlik olsa, yalnızca pencerelerde tül perdeler belli belirsiz uçuşsa... Gözlerimi açmasam, günle gecenin yer değiştirdiğini gözkapaklarımın hafifçe gölgelenip aydınlamasından, gölgelenip aydınlanmasından bilsem... Ne uyusam, ne de uyanık olsam; düşlerle düşünceler karmakarışık akıp gitse, zaman yitse! [...]

El legendario cantante de Led Zeppelin , Robert Plant , confirmó que estuvo grabando canciones con Primal Scream para el nuevo álbum de la banda, que se estrenará en 2013. En declaraciones a Mojo , Plant dijo: “canté un poco en el material de los Primals, porque pienso que sus referencias en la búsqueda del pasado glorioso y la forma en que lo traen al mundo contemporáneo es [...]
Primal Scream have got a new member... a mystery bass player called Simone Butler....

Tras dos años celebrando el aniversario número 20 de Screamadelica , la banda escocesa Primal Scream anunció que las grabaciones de su próximo disco (aún sin nombre) ya han finalizado. El encargado de dar la noticia sobre el sucesor de Beautiful Future (2008) -que llegaría a las bateas a principios de 2013- fue nada menos que el frontman Bobby Gillespie , en diálogo con la revista Q . "Es un disco de rock n' roll pero moderno. [...]

Según una entrevista concedida por Bobby Gillespie a la revista Q, el esperado nuevo trabajo de Primal Scream verá la luz a principios del próximo año. La banda aún no ha revelado el título del álbum, pero Gillespie ha indicado que se trata de un disco de rock moderno y psicodélico, donde las guitarras vuelven a tener un rol fundamental. Por ahora lo único que se sabe es que el sucesor de Beautiful future , lanzado en 2008, debería llegar a las tiendas los primeros meses de 2013. Recordemos que los autores de Screamadelica [...]
There are some nice new additions to the line-up for this year's Arthur's Day gigs, set to take place on September 27th. Primal Scream, Mumford & Sons and Fun Livin' Criminals join a bill that already includes Example, Tinie Tempah, Ellie Goulding, Mika, Professor Green, Fatboy Slim, Texas and Amy MacDonald, as well as a variety of Irish acts (We Cut Corners, Rubberbandits, Delorentos, Little Green Cars, The Hot Sprockets). This year there are no tickets on sale for the event, with 500 free Arthur’s Day music events taking place in local pubs across all 32 [...]

Alan McGee , mente maestra detrás de Creation Records y responsable de lanzar bandas como Primal Scream, My Bloody Valentine, Oasis, Super Furry Animals, Saint Etienne y demás… podría regresar a la industria discográfica reviviendo este mítico sello. Pero, ¿qué razones están detrás de este posible -y esperado- regreso? En palabras del mismo McGee: “Después de pasar el verano ayudando a curar el festival Tokyo Rocks del próximo año, ¡me di cuenta de que aún lo amo! Fue cuando volaba de regreso de Tokyo con los Primal, que comencé a [...]

Stacey Hatfield As performing names go, Daughter certainly exists pretty far on the "not very" end of the Google-ability scale, but they're worth the effort. Originally a pseudonym for London's Elena Tonra, its scope eventually expanded to include guitarist Igor Haefeli and now, with drummer Remi Aguilella in the fold, represents the trio and is a proper band - one whose dark, quietly dramatic, atmospheric folk turned out to be one of the highlights of this year's SXSW . Considering that hot on the heels of their festival appearances came the word that [...]
