Another great project from Copenhagen scene with member of Lower, Sexdrome and Iceage: Vår! Dark industrial, Electronics, New Wave on their LP “No One Dances Quite Like My Brothers”. Iceage frontman Elias Bender Rønnenfelt sounds like a mix between Robert Smith and Ian Curtis. I love the electronics and synths on “The Word Fell“. From which movie is the quote “No One Dances Quite Like My Brothers” or isn’t that a movie sample at the start of the third song?
Yesterday saw awesome hc punk band Hoax from MA US play Vrankrijk squat in Amsterdam. Fucking great show with crazy front man who is crawling over stage and he was masturbating with a smartphone from someone in the audience. Extremely loud pissed off hardcore with a wall of noizy feedback over the vocals and the guitar. Check them out on their Euro tour!
Remaining Euro tour dates:
UPDATE:
Live video of Amsterdam show:
new song from their upcoming album. Iceage!
Amazingly slow chil video of these leftist psychadelic rockers:
You might hate Bowie his music and prefer to listen to Skrillex, One Direction or Jay-Z, but damn if you are a marketeer you should fucking appreciate Bowie his skills to influence the media and the public!
Like mentioned in my previous post Bowie always has had a great sense of how to play the public. How to create a buzz. How to attract attention. How to boost record sales. Just by saying “he was gay” or making strange comments about fascism. Of course not everyone could do this without keeping his mystic and powerful image. Only Bowie can pull it off. It almost seems kitsch and spontaneous sometimes, still it is all part of a genius marketeer mind. Hell yeah, but yes also Goebbels was a great marketeer, Bowie would agree I guess.
Today turning 66 Bowie has done another masterstroke by releasing totally out of the blue a new single. “Where are we now” made him a trending topic on Twitter, newspapers and some blogs post about. Genius marketing plot without any accidental leaks or rumours, there was the announcement of a new album coming out in March and a new single with video, see below. Like the dude in the Guardian says while all other rockstars dip into nostalgia, Bowie is just Bowie! I love it. Happy birthday David Bowie!
More sick videos from Japan. Not a la dente, but Pastafasta fucking grind:
Another psychedelic colorful video made by the same guy named Akasihic for the noize rock group Hiratuka Decoder:
Song from CDEP “An Overturned Toy Box” on Less Than TV records. Already release in 2011. Female headed noize rock from Japan. Live videos are quite different. I love this Alice Wonderland inspired black and white video.
