Numero 6 - Indie Made In Italy

Merita? Eu cred ca da. Macar pentru a-l auzi pe Bonnie "Prince" Billy cantand in italiana. ;)

Weezer - Pork and Beans

Pe 3 iunie Weezer se intorc cu un nou album. Cateva piese au aparut deja pe internet, parerile sunt impartite, eu nu am apucat sa le ascult dar cred totusi ca voi astepta pana isi va face aparitia o varianta finala. Oricum, nu mai e foarte mult pana atunci. :)

Do i Look Like H. Potter Or Not?

Deci nu, nu veneam de la vreun bal mascat, ci de la cursul festiv de absolvire. Urmeaza sesiunea, licenta si serviciul. Can't wait! ^_^

PS: Btw, a citit cineva review-ul meu la ultimul Supergrass din Republik? =D

XX Teens

XX Teens are five young men from London who have just finished their debut long-player, Welcome To Goon Island. The 12-track album, produced by Sheffield’s Ross Orton (MIA, Fat Truckers, Bromheads Jacket) is set to be released through Mute in late July.

Previously labelled absurd, eccentric, political, experimental, it sometimes seems people find it rather hard to get a handle on the XX Teens, yet their plan is simple. Born from the great British art school tradition their approach is to create the most interesting & expansive music possible with the limited tools they have available; an aesthetic that seeps into everything they do from videos to photos to extra curricular activities such as training dogs to dance. Yet such apparent frippery shouldn’t disguise the fact that they are able to pen rather fine songs, as Welcome To Goon Island attests.

Previous singles such as Onkawara, Darlin’ and How To Reduce The Chances Of Being A Terror Victim have already seen them bag single of the week slots in NME, praise from the likes of Zane on Radio1, front covers of Artrocker and a slot in the NME’s tracks of 2007 list. And with Welcome To Goon Island, XX teens look set to bring a bit of depth & technicolour joy into the sometime hegemonic drabness of the current musical landscape. Amen!

He's Beck

Hmmmm, sa-mi dreg vocea putin inainte sa fac anuntul: Ladies and Gents, BECK IS BACK! Chemtrailes sau prima melodie de pe viitorul album al domnului Beck Hansen pus la cale impreuna cu stimatul Danger Mouse de la Gnarls Barkley, s-a scurs ieri pe internet. Va puteti bucura si voi de ea mai jos:

Le Dernière Banquet

Deci ... dupa cum probabil vi-ati dat seama deja din titlu, acestea ar fi cateva din primele poze pe care le-am primit de la banchetul sectiei de management, din care vrand-nevrand si eu insumi fac parte. Not for long, pentru ca mai avem putin, vine licenta si cam acolo se termina cei 3 ani de facultate. Datorita tarifului nejustificat de mare prezenta studentilor a fost relativ slaba, organizarea petrecerii a fost in general defectuoasa, restaurantul Loyd din centru avand un puternic aer comunist, meniul si bauturile de-a dreptul execrabile, dansurile populare ale de ansamblului Banateana parca (n-am retinut dar oricum wtf??? o_O) si dansurile moderne mi s-au parut iesite din context, iar de muzica... ei bine legat de muzica nici nu vreau sa comentez. Oricum in cele din urma am trecut peste micile detalii organizatorice nereusite si cu putina sau putin mai multa Stalinskaya indoita cu Prigat ne-am detasat de aspectele astea insignifiante si am facut tot posibilul ca sa ne distram. Pentru mine a fost un dublu motiv de sarbatorire din moment ce am primit deja oferta jobului la care am sperat atat de mult. =D Intr-un final a iesit ok, dar desigur ca se putea si mai bine. La plecare m-am intalnit fugitiv si cu Dan de la De Ce Blog, insa nu ne-am intins deloc la discutii pentru ca ne grabeam spre un taxi. Again, don't ask me why. =))
