Ah oui, rien. Juste la feignantise.
Réponse cachée, je faisais de la pub déguisé pour le dernier post...mais pourquoi?

Okay revoila Spraynard, 3 jeunes gonzes de Pennsylvanie qui refont un album solide, j'irais jusqu'à dire totalement à mon gout, ainsi qu'à celui de Mel Gibson, dans l'héritage toujours plus important de latterman.

Sport- demo 2011

2011-03-16T23:01:00.009+01:00

Sport c'est parti pendant que je jouais encore avec lost boys, on a commencé a jouer avec vincent (ex everysecondweek) même si on s'aimait pas trop. On écoutait la même musique donc on voulait faire comme ils font a brooklyn.
Le truc c'est qu'on était vraiment pas bons. Nico mollin, le capitaine, le numéro 10, est venu nous voir traumatiser nos instruments. Twisted minds vivait ses derniers concerts avant leur hiatus, nico était plutôt branché par le projet et a emmené Nak dans ses bagages. (zero absolu).
J'ai arrete lost boys -c'est un autre histoire- vince a commencé a jouer avec veuve ss, sport est devenu un groupe de copains. Enfin c'est ce qu'on se dit, en vérité on s'aime pas trop.
On a enregistré cette démo dans la maison de maxime smadja fin décembre 2010 sous la neige et c'est Hugo Clarence qui a masterisé le tout sous la pluie en mars 2011.

J'ai balancé plein de noms de groupes obscurs dans ce texte pour faire bien pompeux parce que c'est toujours bien vu. Et j'ai aussi mis des noms propres, ca donne l'impression qu'on connait du beau monde.

Tu parles d'un groupe qui m'a fait sauter au plafond. Au détour d'une conversation j'entends ce nom mais j'y prête pas vraiment attention, d'autres trucs à écouter.
Et puis bim, la grande claque. Le batteur de Punch est formidable, une énergie parfaite, ca ralentit quand il faut pour mettre la petite ambiance. C'est la passion.
En 1989, la faille de san andreas se rappelait au bon souvenir des californiens sous le nom de loma prieta earthquake, magnitude 6.9. Vous ferez le lien avec la provenance géographique du groupe.

Ca vient de l'Indiana, ce sont des jeunes encore tsé! Moi mon groupe quand j'avais 20 ans c'était de la grosse merde, et eux ils ont tous plusieurs groupes et c'est du tout bon. Je suis pas un génie c'est sur.

The merchant ships n'existe plus mais ce truc la, for cameron, est parfait. Screamo par la, indie singalong -posthardcore/emo si tu veux- par ci, c'est pile poil dans mes gouts.

L'ami bounce me fait écouter ca cette semaine et je me dis, ca va puer les ska parts ou je sais pas quoi, j'avais une image du groupe de toronto genre punk mélo un peu chiant, un peu plat, même si leurs concerts étaient impecc et qu'ils avaient l'air fort sympathiques.
il y avait déjà quelques tubes eulogy-this respirator qui avaient ce qu'il faut et puis là bonne claque, c'est classe ca file assez droit, c'est abouti, ca m'a fait penser plus a des groupes comme the riot before et la voix est juste super classe. Du bradley nowell 2010 en punk rock, un grain super classe, ca pousse quand il faut, c'est inspiré sans trop l'être. Ca passe tout seul.

Thousandaires: When someone who comes from an impoverished background shows-off with (often tasteless) flashy jewelry, expensive phones, etc. to demonstrate that they are not as broke as their friends; they're "in the big leagues" because they are not living-off welfare, etc. Pretending to be rich on a small budget.

2010-10-18T19:21:00.010+02:00

Bordel de merde, je suis dans tous mes états.
Pas plus tard que ce matin alors que j'étais passablement énervé de retourner bosser et retrouver la marmaille qui braille parce qu'elle a besoin de faire savoir au monde qu'elle existe, j'avais besoin d'écouter quelque chose de parfait aux premières heures d'une de ces journées d'octobre quand il fait encore nuit, l'heure à laquelle les lampadaires commencent juste à s'éteindre et que le froid saisit bien moins chaleureusement que ma très chère la veille. Là je me décide à mettre un point dans ma phrase sinon les comparaisons avec Proust risque de pleuvoir et soyons honnête, je ne lui ai jamais rien envié si ce n'est peut être sa madeleine, et encore à l'heure du goûter. Pour les bien nantis vous reconnaitrez volontiers et même outrageusement l'influence de Desproges dans ces quelques lignes censées plaider la cause de ces nippons. (Je vous épargne la chute de cette phrase)
Allons bon j'en étais où. Il fait froid, certes. Les vieux nous disent qu'il n'y plus de saison, si de mon point de vue je dirais qu'il n'y plus de respect ca serait autant s'avancer de dire que notre héros Johnny ne devrait pas passer l'hiver.
Je me suis remémoré mon weekend (parce que c'est ce qu'on fait le lundi matin). Samedi midi au best bagels, un coin de new york city factice, rue d'Auvergne, celui qui a repris ce bon vieux juice and co.. L'ambiance est chouette, un peu moins de hipsters que place tobie robatel et de toute façon j'ai du mal à passer rive droite du Rhône alors autant faire au plus court. J'habite dans le troisième, merci.
Entre deux bouchées d'un veggie absolument fantastique et deux trois visions de ma mère, je prend le temps et demande au dj quel disque tourne sur son ipod. (Comprenez à ce cynisme ce que bon vous semble)
Toe.
Ah ouais, putain c'est au poil. (Cela implique quand même, et je n'ai pas honte, ma découverte de moins d'une semaine d'un groupe qui a 8 ans...)
Post rock mais loin d'un explosions in the sky pourtant ca en a toute l'émotion mais ca emploie un peu au math rock, un peu à l'electro. C'est beau. Je serais capable de pleurer que je l'aurais fait.
Soyons sérieux deux minutes, ca fait du bien un peu d'air frais en temps de grève. Rien ne va plus, mais au moins, le matin sur mon trajet, j'ai le temps de voir venir mon café de 8heures en paix.
Fermez toutes les parenthèses.

Amanda Woodward-

2010-08-12T20:20:00.008+02:00

Amanda Woodward -apart fron the character in you-know-the-series-from-the-nineties- is a french band from Caen.
Abstract lyrics -more like fragments of conversation- sung in french. It's not a so-called "unique band" but they are in France well respected and gave the lead to some followers. They mixed (speaking in past tense...) punkrock with emo/screamo elements. This being said, I think that's a bit harsh of a definition. I have hard times lablling bands, i'd like not to give an etiquette to amanda woodward. Intricate but urgent guitars, galloping rythms when needed, but with enough maturity and great composure in songwriting to slow down the tempo on some songs, even with some dub rythms on bass or drums.
And if Amanda woodward -the character- landed in France, Amanda woodward -the band- took off on Level plane records.
Resuming statement.
"their songs are not long, epic passages; they’re short, passionate bursts of energy that convey the band's political message in radical form. Post-rock instrumental passages, chaotic screaming, thundering guitars, and it’s tied together with a social and political message all their own."

Bottom line: get into it.

Cycle to/Kids against crosses- Split

2010-08-12T11:54:00.003+02:00

La feutrine & Truffle shuffle rcds released this split record available only on cd. Truffle shuffle is run by Brian, who played guitar in Chasing paperboy (see entry below...)
Two french bands, three tracks each.
Kids against crosses -from cagnes sur mer/nice- features 6stringer/vocalist of chasing paperboy, Jean, the french accent with english lyrics is recognizable among many others- that makes the little something you love or hate. Some horns goes along Jean's fast-folk guitar chords played by the other member of KAC, Ben.

I do prefer the cycle to side. Young band from Paris, I really dig 'em because as in the states there's a post-latterman wealth scene, in France it seems like cycle to is the only band claiming Latterman's influences. They do it real good, doing somewhat better than some american bands.

Wayfarer- our fathers

2010-08-11T14:32:00.004+02:00

Mid tempo punk rock, from Ontario-Canada. Something like the riot before meets mockingbird w.m.l/midwestern bands/no idea catalog/poppunk elements with blazing sing alongs, raspy vocals & sharp hooks. This is a very good album, or as my friend Vince says "record of the summer".
I tend to agree with my manchild bro'.
This record is damn good and well you gotta get it. The band propose a free download on their website but as always: if you like it, just buy it! yo-yo!

Karate-

2010-08-02T11:45:00.010+02:00

For those of you who never heard about Karate, here's the deal/

Quick history setup: Geoff Farina, Eamon Vitt and Gavin Mccarthy formed Karate in 1993 in Boston and broke up in 2005 mainly due to Farina's hear problems...Jeff Godard joined the band in 1995 and Vitt left to pursue a medical career in 1997.

They played a weird mixture of indie rock, jazz, post rock, labelled punk for their diy ethic and were very prolific considering the sense of details they have in their songs. (7 ep or 7" and 7 lp's) It's beautiful to hear such well played music. From the groovy bass lines to the jazz guitar jams and a perfect drumming.

Without further ado here's a lot of their releases (Southern records)

2010-07-28T12:04:00.010+02:00

If you browse the web and check Eric Ayotte's reviews or things about the man you just find everywhere that he is the kindest man and funniest man you'll ever meet. So I met him at the fluff this year and had the opportunity to talk to him a little bit in the aftertoon and a bit more after his amazing show in the party tent. What they say is true: he's a really nice and funny man and his show....i have no word for it, i didn't except it woulda give me such emotions. damn i'm voiceless...
Eric Ayotte played in Air Raid Barcelona, plays in Halo Fauna and performs solo. He still manages to make some videos in kinda crew "Cob Job" from Bloomington, works on this project called the GADABOUT TRAVELING FILM FEST. He takes submissions of short films from indy/punk/lo-budget film makers and picks the best hour or so of them and takes them on tour. He books these tours just like a punk band does and shows the films at punk shows/coffee shops/acoustic shows/movie nights etc.
Here's to you a lot of his music work. Please buy some of his stuff, through him via his myspace or via noidea or deadbrokerekerds or any other distros....

2010-06-16T21:05:00.007+02:00

4th full-length for Chicagoan Mike Kinsella. 8 tracks of soft ambient music, beautiful studio work (piano/violin) that install Kinsella's voice in your mind wherever you are. The man has made a lot of albums over the years, and it didn't get repetitive. Talent, right?
It goes along right with rainy days, hazy days of winter!
Maybe if you have no reference on, you can think of Jonah Matranga. Raspy and kind of hesitating voice...

Here is Brian Moss' 3rd full lenght due june 1st at Scary Big Monster. Brian Moss was part of The ghost a band from Berkeley which moved to Chicago and Olehole.
I was enough touched by this record to give to you the streaming version. So it's advanced version, a sort of ygii exclusive thing. (What did I tell about that on a previous post?!)
I had a major crush on the "the eigth nerve" song, heavily looped! Nice hooks, brilliant chorus with collegial singalong. Damn I like this song.
The rest of the album, it's like almost four minutes songs, indie folk pop, light with more upbeat hints. The song moth to the flame comes here like a k7 recording of vivida-vis!

Sweet sweet.

Empowered by d.i.y venues and nurtured by 150 acres of open land this is Nana Grizol.
A horn section (as mellow as the horns in weakerthans) from Neutral Milk Hotel (2/6 of N.G) a harmond piano/xylophone/harmo, a rythm section and the voice and guitar of Theo Hilton, Defiance Ohio's alum. What you got? Just a perfect album. Defiance Ohio meets Bright Eyes meets Juno meets MJ touchdown pass!

Let me just talk here about the "150 acres of open land" -yeah you can browse google too-

Orange Twin Conservation Community (OTCC) is a limited liability company (LLC) formed to create a pedestrian-based eco-village and preserve open space on more than 150 acres (0.61 km²) of land located five miles (8 km) north of downtown Athens, Ga. The eco-village is still in the planning and development stage. OTCC was founded in the late 1990s by Laura Carter along with two friends, Laura Glenn and Barbara Denvir. Together they developed the initial concept of a village-style community in the Athens area. They also scouted and eventually found a large tract of undeveloped land with two perennial streams and much wooded acreage suitable for the community.

Sometimes Madeline Adams plays bass and sometimes it seems she doesn't. Yet she's beautiful. -She played an encore of what it seemed just for me as I asked dumpster dive mother in Dijon, France.
This being said I'm far from the subject so let's re-focus:

Perfect album of sunny days in wheat fields, of biking away from the city and living lightly. Going by the river and eating seitan by the shore, enjoying the reflection of the sun on the water and feeling free.

Sweet, sweet.

"Summer in my town is nice, my front porch is my paradise
and I can sit here every night, yes I can watch the world go by"

Sports

2010-05-16T19:28:00.003+02:00

I don't know if some of you watch/follow/love/ basketball and ice hockey but I love those two sports very fucking much and what's happening in the nba and nhl playoffs is crazy!

I remember asking Adam Goren a.k.a Atom & his package in an interview if the Flyers will make the playoffs: it was some years ago and the flyers fans must be astonished this year. Down 0-3 Philly makes it up the the 7th game (whichis already a miracle) but after losing 0-3 after a period AT Boston in this oh so important last game, theyscores 4 in a row to close the series! Even more miraculous. (The Islanders did it twice in a row in '75)
The Canadiens are seed eight. One week before the end of the regular season they didn't know if they were gonna make it. And in 7, they beat the Capitals and the Penguins (last year SC's winner) and reach the Eastern conference finals where they meet...the Flyers. And guess the seed? 7!
So in the east we've got #7 vs #8! (In the West it's #1 vs #2...)
Go East.

I've been playing basket ball a lot, since I was 9. 1993. Just after the Dream Team (yeah, capital letters) blew everything away in the '92 summer olympics in Barcelona.
I grew up with Bird, Johnson and then just M.J.
So I'm always pleased when the Bulls make the playoffs. (None in the early 00's, but brilliant like against the Celtics in a 7 game 7 Ot last year!)
To make it short, because I just wanted to write these things because these sports bring me joy: and because Boston ejected the Cavs):
-The C's rules.
-Orlando is very strong.
And the suns have to kick the goddamn lakers asses!!
Boston-Phoenix. Great finals.
Because I've grown with Jordan I can't stand K.Bryant and to some extent, L. James.

Jawbreaker- live NY 1993

2010-05-13T19:05:00.004+02:00

I'll try to put more records like this: bsides/rarities/bootleg, non commercials records.
There are lot of blogs where you can get the latest releases, and as I don't run for exclusivity I don't see why I'll continue on posting brand new records, especially for very well-known bands...
This being said:

Here's Jawbreaker in 1993 playing CBGB, with soon to become anthemic songs. (24 hour revenge therapy was released in 1994.)

1-Do you still hate me?
2- Donatello
3- Boxcar
4- Chesterfield King
5- The boat dreams from the hill
6- West Bay invitational
7- Want
8- Outpatient
9- Jinx removing
10- Kiss the bottle

Castevet- The echo and the light

2010-04-08T18:22:00.003+02:00

Damn this artwork is beautiful.
Some info concerning this release:
"after the release of this record had been pushed back several times, we decided to part ways with big scary monsters. as such, 'the echo and the light' was not released today -24th feb 010-. there is good news, however: the album will be re-recorded with 2 bonus tracks (that's 8 songs total for those of you keeping score) and will be released as a 12" in may.
we will have more information about the labels involved, a short midwest tour, and other releases very soon. we apologize for the delay, but we're looking forward to having the final version of the album on vinyl in a few months."
This is the 6 songs preview, more screaming parts. I love this band, if i was a teenager maybe there will be Castevet's posters hanging on my walls. damn straight!

La dispute- Somewhere At The Bottom Of The River Between Vega And Altair

2010-04-08T18:03:00.002+02:00

Its funny how an album can stick you. I mean, you hear it and you immediately know that there is depth in it, that there is The something that is gonna make you press play again. Great records are made of this...
Poetic verbal lyrics, incredible vocal performance between spoken words and shouted words back up by perfect music (post rock elements, progressive, arpeggio, ambient til the hardcore break with furious guitars or simply )
Its kinda of soul hardcore if I had to label it, just because its like your consciouness speaking to you about struggles in life, society...with hardcore elements ala touche amore/comadre or thrice old stuff.
Think about Lack.

Paul Baribeau- Unbearable

2010-04-05T20:01:00.006+02:00

Here it is, probably late among my blog comrades but I'm not running for exlusivity.
I took some time to listen to it. I try to avoid the comparaison with Grand Ledge but I can't. Such an awesome record.
I love "how could that be true" , the way he sings "give me all...give me all ..." and the way it comes back in the song.
I find the voice more mellow (softer), a little more high pitched too. There are lots of long lasting syllables if you know what I mean ala "Blue cool" song. Not that I really dislike it, but its less punchy.
The guitar chords are still efficient, like "Black Strat" is, but I have harder time to get a crush on Unbearable.

Electric Vein- ep

2010-04-05T12:07:00.004+02:00

Back to my heydays when I lived in Clermont Ferrand. I was absolutely found on this band, their live performances were always cool!
I like how they shaped their songs, you can feel its young, but its passionate. Its pretty much 4 dudes (from Lezoux!) jamming at their rehearsals, coming with a killer guitar riff and building around. The melodies in here are great, think of Washington Dc's Dischord (Bluetip/Fugazi) with that Husker du influence they can't deny, putting the nice hook at the right time.

They eventually broke up. Seb plays in Sofy Major, Rene started Village (for which I learn the bass for a few songs and played a little with them) Matt played bass in Stetson and Ass Bandit. Remi was the drummer for Ass bandit and played guitar in a rock band I can't remember the name...

Epileptic- The first day of my second life

2010-04-03T12:40:00.005+02:00

Here's another band from Poitiers, France. I remember the first time my friend Dam put the cd in his record player, filling his dorm room with something i totally disliked. For him and for me, 2004 was like Against me's As the eternal cowboy and Epileptic's the first day of our second life, tough only tom gabel was echoing in my head...
I bought the lp this year!!!And to this date, its what has been the most played on my turntable!
This is pure genius, the lyrics are perfect, the melodies are brilliant...The best french album of the last decade. No doubt about it.

Youth pictures of Florence Henderson- Unnoticeable in a tiny town, invisible in the city

2010-03-29T16:22:00.004+02:00

Youth pictures of Florence Henderson is a post rock outfit from Oslo, Norway. Formed by journalist students mates in 2004, they were quite evasive at the start but rely on post rock and put out on their own structure this 6 tracks very well acclaimed by reviews. Mixing elements of pop rock (which i dislike the most, some moaning elements..) especially with some vocals involved, they deliver some best class post rock ala explosions in the sky, very soothing parts and include some electronic stuff, samples to weird sound.

Jawbreaker- Dear you

2010-03-29T15:31:00.006+02:00

I'm not up to the complete discography right now, maybe later...I picked up one alb of Berkeley's best because I've been listenning a lot to it, jetblack is indeed my favorite jawbreaker song. So much depth, it still thrills me.

This is the last Lp they released. After the impact of Green Day or Offspring (California shines) Geffen (Sony division, major label) decided to released it. They made a lot on marketing ,yet the sales did not take off even if Rob Cavallo (who worked on Dookie, breaktrough album) was in charge ofthe production and gave to the record a more "radio sound."24 hour revenge therapy, their previous effort was a huge success but put the band on the verge of breaking up. Eventually they did break up (1996), one year after the release of Dear you (sept 95), which included a tour opening for Foo Fighters.and who is wearing that shirt!

Here are 6 songs, a little something to wait for the soon-to-come new record by Paul Baribeau.(Harvest of hope? No idea? Plan it x?)
Grand ledge, his last effort, is highly responsible for my needle record going thin. Once again, everything just good, I can't explain but when I'm listenning to P.

The Reptilian- Boy's life

2010-02-25T22:57:00.003+01:00

From Kalamazoo, Michigan. They are a post-hardcore band with hardcore values. They are a screamo band with math-rock tendencies. They are an indie band with too much yelling. They are probably all of the above. But really, they're just doing what they love to do. (from their blogspot- I know: i'm lame!don't blame!)
I really like this ep, its makes feel good. And you know that when songs makes you feel something you're alive. Long structured songs without losing its balance, incredibly melodic yet very intense. Intricate without being boring, passionate enough to feel the right amount of honesty in making music. Check it out!

American Football- ep/lp

2010-02-01T16:06:00.003+01:00

Kinsella's brother are kind if impressive: Cap n jazz, Joan of arc, American Football, Owen, Owls, Make believe. These chicagoans are like monuments in the history of the indie/emo scene.
American football is Mike Kinsella (Owen, CapnJazz, Joa) and Lamos (The geese, Dms) who started to play with the johnson's bros under the name of The One Up Downstairs. These dudes went on to form another act. There come Steve Holmes. The band, who never had a bass player, beacame more of a studio project, displaying an incredible and touching music. Damn those tunes (from their only 2 releases) are so beautiful.
Mike Kinsella explained the band's name as follows: My girlfriend had been in Dublin, Ireland visiting her family. One of the things she brought home for me was a flyer for a Chicago Bears exhibition game that said: "Come see American Football, featuring the most overpaid athletes in the world." Something about that statement made me think of rock bands, most of whom are the most overpaid musicians in the world. When I suggested it as a name, the other guys thought it was dumb. Still, for whatever reason, we kept it.

I drifted to a bruce springsteen tune, giving a little southern accent to my emotions -The Enablers are from...Gainesville! what a surprise- then i thought about Mike Ness and Frankie Stubbs listlessness voice.

Osker- Idle will kill

2010-01-15T17:14:00.004+01:00

Back to my teenage years except that I discovered this record late 2009! Its weird that i never go into this record before as I had some interest in the epitath catalog back in '01. So almost ten years, uh!
I heard some stories of devon williams, Osker's leader per say, one of the most hated guy in punk rock.
"The world is a carousel of people who don’t know what the hell they are talking about. With this in mind, Osker receives criticism from lemmings who are determined to slam the band because of their reputation. Kids don’t know Devon Williams (vocals, guitar) personally, yet they feel security and freedom to call him an asshole. Furthermore, some people receive a sense of accomplishment by writing “your bands sucks” on the Osker messageboard, a mature act which must not go unnoted. However, these actions are more of a reflection of the trivial lives some people lead rather than the quality of the music Osker makes. Don’t be lead astray by the “most hated” tag. Although Devon’s cynicism and brutal honesty can get him in trouble from time to time, that’s no reason to overlook Idle Will Kill."

Idle will kill is a masterpiece. A must have pop-punk record that i cannot compare to another act. Meayb Dillinger Four but just replace the political songs with teenage angst. There are songs absolutely anthemic. Songs like disconnect disconnect or kinectic have haunted me for days. You can lable this punk rock as Osker didn't give a tiny fuck of all that criticism and managed to record something very different from their first lp, giving a different direction while sticking to pure honesty.

A record filled with with passion and honesty. I'm not getting tired of gruff punk acts, but sometimes bands can be outta line. I find in this record well crafted songs, simple-efficient chords and raw vocals line, great hooks that caught me quick in looping the 12 tracks effort. -Only the acoustic song kinds of bored me- EOHF are from Cleveland and on lock and collective (same as Captain we're sinking). If you want references i'll say smallbrownbike/bannerpilot/lawrence arms/punkrock.. Apart from trying each time to relate to other bands, I'll say that this record is just worth it, it fucking kicked my ass.

Hard girls are a three piece band from San Jose, Ca. Does it have something to do with their sound. Sometimes i do believe there's a link.
I find in this ep different influences, from the hot water music inspiration of Quinceanara, to the danceable Lazer parade to some classic indie punk rock mixed with enthusiastic singing parts flirting with folk punk stuff. And I like the cover.

Comadre- a wolf ticket

My dear friend Salt'n'peppa, aka Vince put this record on and I'm saying: "what's that?" (well I'm always asking when I've never heard of before-or forget-)So he says its the last Comadre record. I digged the thing and I now pick up the words from punknews because its exactly how i felt about it:
Comadre was fast, sporadic and angry. It all just seemed like a giant mess, but over time the mess began to make sense, with the intensity opening up to great hooks and melodies that range from fist-pounding to danceable. All of this and more is encapsulated in their most recent effort, A Wolf Ticket.

Implosion Lp is on full streaming at punknews
You can hear new songs from the upcoming 10" here

Cut the shit- Harmed and dangerous

2009-11-19T19:07:00.010+01:00

Def 1. To tell someone to quit playing; to knock it off.
Cut the Shit was a punk/hardcore band based out of Boston, MA. It featured ex-members of Tear It Up, Cops and Robbers, and Bones Brigade. This Lp is 18 tracks in 10minutes of pissed off, raw hardcore/punk !80's thrash explosion! successfully mixing the mayhem of boston hardcore with the ferocity and anger of NYHC. 2003.

Career Suicide- Attempted suicide

2009-11-18T15:32:00.031+01:00

One of the best album of 2007. It's straightforward 80's hardcore withh raspy, ramblingly yelled vocals.
It's pounding, it's raw, the slap in your face you need everyday to get your eyes fucking open.
A must have from Ontario.

Iron Chic- Shitty Rambo ep

2009-11-15T15:41:00.004+01:00

The first entry of this blog was Iron Chic! Some 11 months ago -Yeah I'll be celebrating soon the one year birthday of YGII- I was expecting a Lp for Iron Chic but well four more are better than nothing at all. 7 inches are a nice path for a band to avoid long awaited releases, as you know recording a full lenght takes way more time...
Long Island's Iron chic feats former members of small arms dealers, Latterman...
It was out nov 1st.
I think i suck at review at the moment: just listen, guess it's better than lame words. ear ear here

The Misfits- Bullet 7"

2009-10-19T22:01:00.006+02:00

There are bands you've heard before, there are songs that did not make it. And then you dig a little more, years later and find the perfect match. "What a strike! attaboy!"
Just brilliant.
I've spent time studying the jfk assassination, counter alleys of the power, the lies, the hidden truth, the plot, the cold war era...so i created a connection, that i'm bound to this song, that bullet is my song...and then i listen to attitude and what a chorus. 1978 baby!

Ride Johnny ride.

Lost boys-

2009-10-07T15:30:00.004+02:00

So it's been a while... I've been busy learning my new band bass parts. I now play bass in a band that i liked very much before being part of it. Lost boys. Punk hardcore, the 80's way. Here are some material you can find in different previous 7" or splits.
Check out the website for shows and more. I'm really excited as we are going to Ireland by the end of the month!

Take care.

Teenage Bottlerocket- They came from the shadows

2009-09-22T21:02:00.007+02:00

Following The Lillingtons what could have been better than TBR, Laramie based band lead by Templeman, former Lillingtons 6 stringer/singer?
This release comes on Fat, hum what can i say? I'm not spitting at fat mikes face. Its one of the label of my teenage years and it did a lot in the punk rock scene. I'm not listenning that much to new fat wreck bands, I know they are bands i dislike and bands i could like!
I will just say that some of my faves bands have been on fat, againts me! propagandhi...ya know. anyway i'm just bablling here,so just give a try to tbr. classic pop punk ala weasel/lillingtons.

Chuck Ragan- Gold country

2009-08-31T20:46:00.005+02:00

I'm posting it trough this weekend I think...The latest thing I post of Chuck ragan was ole diesel and I received mails to erase it. I did so...
The man is playing in my town on friday. Only show in France...
So I'll go to him with my hwm tatoo on my leg and say:
-"Hey how are you doing? Your last cd is great, more county-ish but still awesome. Your warm voice, your easy listenning guitar chords, these melodies which stick to the bones."
And he'll say just that, with a tiny smile on his face.
-"I'm doing great"
So I'll look at him with all my gratitude.
-"Yeah, thats how i feel when listenning to gold country. I'm doing great. It's good to be alive."
And then realized I just closed my eyes and that is in front of us as I get carried away by his show... or maybe, as always, it'll be the time a fucking douche spills beer on me...
