ROCK amp SHOCK FESTIVAL

The Palladium Worcester MA October 16th 2010

We decided to take in Day 2 of this 3-day metal festival in New Englands 1 city for metal amp extreme music Worcester What about Boston you say In the words of Peter Griffin Come On if you check the local rags or websites on who is coming to Boston you are and always have had more focus on alternative rock blues folk and garage rock punk pop sorry Boston I love you but thatrsquos the truth So off to the statersquos second biggest city where The DCU Center and The Palladium are only a short walk from each other in the chilly overcast autumn day perfect for a horror movie Speaking of that at The DCU there was a festival showcase that was included with admission to the Palladium with horror movie celebs and stuff there was also a Rob ZombieAlice Cooper show there but that was a separate admission

So we get into the Palladium at 245 and after the usual frisking and waiting for the photo pass and then bands for each wrist if drinking so we missed Mobile Death Camp but we were quite happy that we did not miss out on the

second band Florida- based Infernaeon s set Led by singer Brian Werner (who told me after the set that he was off as he was suffering from strep throat so he could not hit the high notes he normally does) they put on a solid show that had the assembled moshing and pitchfork fisting away The early arrivals filled the lower arena and were enjoying (as we did) the gothic keyboards of Dave Stein and grinding buzzsaw guitar work by Taylor Nordberg and Steven Harger The set focused on songs from their latest CD Genesis To Nemesis with tunes like Creeping Death and Legacy Of Cain and had some visual moments when Brian took out a Ram or Goats head and raised it high as the crowd went into a frenzy Up next was Hatesphere but there was some confusion as the drums had the logo of Blackguard and they began the set without any microphones visible on the stage then out came Esse Hansen and the thrash metal stylings they have crafted over 6 albums was obvious to all They hit a bit from the catalog but focused on 2009s To The Nines Then came Nuclear Blasts Canadian metalists Threat Signal led by their animated vocalist Jon Howard playing selections from 2009s Vigilance CD with my favorite song Severed Then out came Blackguard for real with vocalist Paul Ablaze full of energy in front of the blazing guitar of Kim Gosselin that defines the band and this set was no different As they winded down we headed over to the merch tables and I saw Peter Yarmouth from Black amp Blue Records and spoke with him and he introduced me to Dave Stein from Infernaeon and educated me in that Dave used to play lead guitar for Northwinds that recorded the album Sleep With Evil back around 1990 and this was the first time they have caught up in person since those days

Dave was 17 when he began playing with that band and now with Infernaeon he is the oldest member and is now playing with his brother on bass Cool info Anyway we took a walk over to the DCU to check out the festival stuff and then grabbed a bite to eat before heading back to The Palladium and missed a few bands and caught the tail end of The Casualties set and noticed the place was packed as they ran through their hardcore punk rock stuff Next was the foreboding Nevermore who as usual played a progressive style of metal that features acoustic guitars that this Seattle-based outfit is known for As the set went on you could see more T shirts including one that I saw that had If you can read this I havent seen GWAR yet that says it all A lot of fans wore white so they could have GWAR souvenirs 25 plus years of drenching audiences in paint and going strong and certain to make a political or social statement with arguably one of the best stage shows without special effects Costumes and props like old time theater not animation and electronics not that that is bad just different The music is as hard as it ever was from this maniacal metal ensemble I tell everyone I ever talk about concerts with that if you have not seen GWAR you really are missing a show Forget if you like the music really what other band can claim that but it is true Anybody can have fun at a GWAR show

Have I kissed enough ass yet you are thinking Maybe you are not but I am not sucking up I mean it as I could not name 10 GWAR tunes but I have seen them 6 times or more and always enjoy the show funny hard rocking and extreme violence Thatrsquos right kiddies Violence The question is who will get decapitated or mutilated from the world of celebrities or political leaders The highlight of this show was the mutilation of Lady Gaga and why the hell not Kids scrambled to catch some Gaga blood on their shirt or face AWESOME Alright I said it It never gets old either - KZ

Hugh Cornwell The Church

Boston MA 102810

Well it was an interesting night at The Church as the crowd got a lot older as punk rockers that looked more like a PTA meeting crowd than back in the day or whatever as we all tried to relive the excitement of The Stranglers circa 1977-82 or so We arrived around 1030 and the first set was underway and all I know we missed for sure was ldquoNice amp Sleazyrdquo as fans yelled already played it when other late arrivals shouted for it What we caught was a mix of Hughs solo catalog and Stranglers favoring the latter herersquos a few songs I really enjoyed - Beat Of My Heart off his latest studio effort Hoover Dam and the title track from Black Hair Black Eyes Black Suit and a very dark version of Golden Brown as there were no keyboards In fact no keyboard versions of all the classics like No More Heroes Always The Sun and all of the second set made it interesting and different So of course as advertised the 2nd set was the album Rattus Norvegicus from start to finish In fact Hugh just released a double live CD set with Rattus as disc 2 and Hoover Dam as disc one both live called New Songs For King Kong which we hope to comment on in a review Hugh sang all the songs except Princess Of The Streets for which his bass player handled the vocals It was a great set with very few breaks in fact no break till Hanging Around which was the last song on side A Hugh took another break before Ugly asking if there were a lot of Ugly people or something like that and my 2 cents is that not a lot of the children of the wealthy were in attendance on this night but perhaps I wasnt looking After an awesome version of Down In The Sewer they departed And despite a some fans leaving others remained and were rewarded with an encore of Walk On By and then he really had to go If you hung out long enough Hugh greeted fans I saw not one person i knew but the show was great I have seen him a few times before 3 acoustic 1 man shows and twice with a band This by far was the best for that reason the other reason is that Hugh has always made the focus of his show his solo release material This night it was Hugh playing as The Stranglers frontman more than ever before playing his trademark guitar licks every time you expected it Plus it might be the last time either he or The Stranglers play around here The place was not packed it was a 12 full room very comfortable - DB

(Donavon plays a left handed Strat strung to play righty and has sons named Hendrix amp Ozzy) Switching gears DF went to the Acoustic during ldquoWhatrsquocha Know Aboutrdquo Eric Brigmond (keys) pulled out the Melodica during ldquoSing A Songrdquo and the Accordion in ldquoFreerdquo Opener Gary Jules (known for his cover of Tears for Fearsrsquo ldquoMad Worldrdquo) joined the band for ldquoSwing on Downrdquo ldquoLife Love amp Laughterrdquo had everyone singing along and encompassed the joy of live music and living in the moment Brigmond pulled out the trumpet to add a Mexican flair to ldquoYour Heartrdquo Thatrsquos Too Bad (Byron Jam) pulled out all the stops and provided the best rock of the evening A standard on the tour DF gives some audience members a chance to sing the chorus on ldquoIt Doesnrsquot Matterrdquo On this night they didnrsquot disappoint no sour notes were hit After a short break DF came back for an encore to perform ldquoCall Me Papardquo solo and acoustic This almost lullaby written for his son was an intimate moment for DF and his audience that began to build to a crescendo as the band rejoined him on stage and segued into a heartfelt version of Skynardsrsquo ldquoSimple Kind Of Manrdquo As his band mates left him alone with his people ldquoPapardquo returned and the gracious performer thanked Asbury Park for a great day On a tour that spans the globe DF truly seemed at home with his fans in this quiet seaside town For updates news tour dates etc ndash wwwdonavonfcom ndash Also check out LostHighwayRecordscom including artists Johnny Cash Van Morrison and Morrissey

WHITE TRASH w Donovan Frankenreiter

Quincy Mumford Gary Jules Summer Stage at the Stone Pony

72409 The Stone Pony Asbury Park New Jersey

By Darryl Longo - Photos by Austin Longo Standing out like a pus filled pimple on Paris Hiltonrsquos ass White Trash made a triumphant return to the state of New Jersey after splitting up over ten years ago A last minute addition White Trash performed on the Summer Stage at the Stone Pony July 24th shocking most in the crowd who were awaiting surf rock headliner Donavan Frankenreiter Reuniting after what founding member David Alvin called a hiatus ldquodue to some substance abuse problems and shitrdquo White Trash seemed out of place on a bill that included Quincy Mumford (sounding eerily similar to Frankenreiterrsquos proteacutegeacute Jack Johnson) and acoustic solo artist Gary Jules (known mostly for his cover of Tears for Fearsrsquo ldquoMad Worldrdquo)

Founded in Queens New York White Trash took hold of the stage opening with ldquoJudge Me Dordquo from their self titled lsquo91 debut album (which peaked at 122 Billboard Top200) and proceeded light up the darkening skies providing a level of energy lacking on most of the eveningrsquos bill The rhythm section of Mike Caldarella (Drums) and Aaron Collins (Bass) laid down a groove that Aaronrsquos brother Ethan (Guitar) and lead vocalist Dave Alvin led through a funk infused set heightened by the Bad-Ass Brass which on this night included Ben amp Ed on trombones and original member Chris Arbisi (Alto Sax) When Alvin introduced ldquoApple Pierdquo he noted the video did get play on MTV back when they used to have music videos but now only offer you info on ldquoyour favorite teenage pregnant whorerdquo In keeping with the White Trash vibe some fans got a chance to chant ldquoeat pussy eat pussy eat pussyrdquo into the mike for the all ages crowd The band were wanting to give the stage up even as security and the Stone Pony management were waving them off at the end of what Alvin deemed a short set These guys obviously enjoy playing together and contrary to Alvinrsquos final salute of the evening letrsquos hope they stay off the crack httpwwwmyspacecomwhitetrashbuzz

FURTHUR ndash Phil Lesh amp Bob Weir 12132009 Convention Hall

Asbury Park New Jersey Irsquom back in Asbury Park NJ to see Phil Lesh amp Bob Weirsrsquo latest venture Furthur at the townrsquos 3500 seat Convention Hall Performing with Ratdog members Jay Lane on percussion amp Jeff Chimenti on keys Joe Russo of the BeneventoRusso Duo on drums and John Kadlecik a founding member of the Grateful Dead tribute band Dark Star Orchestra on lead guitar John who played the Garcia role in DSO handed in his resignation to join Lesh amp Weir in Furthur Asbury Parkrsquos Convention Hall is an aging box with lots of character Dilapidated in most places it would be in the wrecking balls sights The announcement prior to the show that the fire marshal warns it was a non-smoking venue met with groans followed by letting us know that in case of emergency the exits around the perimeter would be clearly lit I felt like I was taking off on a twin prop from a third world country

With it being Philrsquos night to pick the setlist Furthur opened with ldquoBox of Rainrdquo a song Phil wrote while his father was dying On a very wet evening the guys showed they were well rehearsed ready and ripening to the challenge of meeting some high expectations ldquoI Need A Miraclerdquo was lively Bobrsquos vocals sounded as good as Irsquove heard him this decade However what goes on in the beginning of these shows with Bob and his equipsound Irsquove noticed his setup isnrsquot always quite right or something keeps him fiddling about the first few songs of each show Irsquove seen recently I was thrilled to hear the beginnings of Wang Dang Doodle I figured they extend this Willie Dixon tune somewhere along the way Maybe it was a sound problem or something but it seemed this song came to an abrupt end (did the sound quit) with Phil trying to keep it all together leaning over playing a repetitive riff Which led into ldquoThey Love Each Otherrdquo a favorite of mine I had to close my eyes and listen ndash almost could hear Jerryrsquos voice channeling through JK ndash but not quite Jerry had a quality that need not be replicated however John sounded great I leaned over to my quality bud Marlin and said I felt a Sugaree coming on this evening The band then rocked a ldquoBeat it on Down the Linerdquo Bobrsquo vocals sounded great ndash came back with a ldquoCandymanrdquo an inspired Estimated Prophet and my ringtone Cumberland Blues to close the set These last two had all members kickinrsquo it It was fun to see Phil amp Bob enjoying themselves the sound problems seem to have been worked out and we were primed for what would turn out to be one of the best sets of music to come

ldquoHalfndashtime in giant countryrdquo ndash Steal your face t-shirts with NY Giant logos abound and this Eagle fan had the pleasure announcing that the E-A-G-L-E-S were winning It was about a 50 min set break which gave all plenty of time to refuel for the second set ldquoLost Sailorrdquo opened the second set not a favorite tune of mine but on this evening I bought it (one of the best versions Irsquove ever heard live) A well received Saint followed Phil powered thru Masonrsquos Children laying down some amazing lead bass as he can do so well As the beginning notes of Sugaree played the question was who will sing it Bob took the spotlight and for me this was the only disappointment of the eve We all want to see how Johnrsquos

contribution on guitar will develop but also what he can bring vocally is equally important As soon as it ended I bolted for the restroom and made it back before the first verse of a monumental Terrapin Jay Lane and Joe Russo drove the train out of the station with thunderous engines powering a 26min version that solidified this line-up for me Help is on the Way a funkified Slipknot and a rollickingrsquo Franklinrsquos Tower closed the second set Phil had to bring out the band to take a perfunctory bow so he could then get the crowd to quiet down for the donor rap The final song would be the last of this short east coast swing A US Blues encore gave all a great feeling and anticipation for the winter tour Keeping in mind this was ONLY the 9th live performance for this lineup it does seem as if something organic could grow here Somewhere during this evenings performance Phil turned and gave Jeff a fist bump and he then called John over for the same Letrsquos hope there is more than comradely developing here With the Rhythm section of Joe Russo and Jay Lane providing a different jumping off point for Phil (who is one of the most accomplished bass players in rock-n-roll John Kadlecik easily up for the challenge of filling enormous shoes Jeff Chimkent having all the tools to add 21century textures to an aging catalog and Bob vocally sounding as good as ever February could provide some special music See you in AC - Darryl Longo

MISSING LINK FESTIVAL

Mastodon High on Fire Valient Thorr Baroness Black Cobra Bison BC Between the Buried and Me

5810 Fox theater Oakland California

By Jeff Longo Josh Kutras amp Alex Guzman

The mighty Mastodon made another run thorough the Bay Area during their North American spring tour in support of their latest masterpiece rdquoCrack The Skyerdquo (2009 Reprise Records) This time around they brought with them a diverse group of supporting acts including special guests Between the Buried and Me Baroness and Valient Thorr As if that lineup wasnrsquot already brilliant enough the metal gods shined their light on Oakland California on this particular evening to create the first annual Missing Link Festival by adding underground metal legends High on Fire along with Black Cobra and Bison BC The two tribes collided and launched a sonic assault on the Bay Area The day was brutal starting with a trampling from Vancouver BC natives Bison BC Power duo Black Cobra shook the rafters of the Fox Theater with their raucous set featuring songs from their new album lsquoChronomega (2009 Southern Lord) And the enigmatic Valient Thorr never ones to disappoint set the bar for the remaining acts with a dirty beer drenched set of crusty ACDC inspired rock Valient Thorr Setlist 1 Disappeared 2 Tomorrow Police 3 Mask of Sanity High on Fire threatened to bring the building down on the home crowd as they powered through some of their best material to date They unloaded on the crowd with cuts from the critically acclaimed lsquoSnakes for the Divinersquo (2010 Relapse) Stand out tracks were the 8 minute epics lsquoHow Dark We Prayrsquo and lsquoSnakes for the Divinelsquo

High on Fire Setlist 1 Frost Hammer 2 Devilution 3 How Dark We 4 Hung Drawn and Quartered 5 Rumors of War 6 Fire Flood amp Plague 7 Snakes For The Divine Baroness took the stage basked in a blue light in keeping with the theme of their latest outing lsquoThe Blue Albumrsquo (2009 Relapse Records) They ripped through a set of new and old as the crowd sang along with every track We at Stubble wish we could tell you how Between the Buried and Me were however we were downing cold ones and watching the Sharks dispatch the Detroit Red Wings in the playoffs at the bar sorry to all the BTBM fans We have seen them before and they are amazing as Irsquom sure they were on this day as well Baroness Setlist 1 Isak 2 The Birthing 3 The Sweetest Curse Mastodon took the stage as the crowd roared its approval for their crusty heroes The headliners grabbed their instruments and struck the first notes of lsquoOblivionrsquo the opening track on their latest release lsquoCrack the Skyersquo (2009 Reprise) They ran through their seven song opus with grace and ease The acoustics in the Fox Theater are excellent and mixed to perfection with clean vocals sharp guitars and thunderous drums As the band wrapped up the final song lsquoThe Last Baronrsquo and began exiting the stage to ominous keys and a stunning set of visuals on the screen singerguitarist Brent Hinds picked up his microphone slammed it down on stage and stormed off The filled to capacity venue cheered loudly and chanted for the foursome to return for an encore They returned to the stage minus Brent Hinds and picked up their instruments one more time Singerbassist Troy Sanders wholeheartedly thanked the crowd for their devotion to the band and for coming out for such a big event and staying to the bitter end He asked the crowd if they wanted one more and began playing lsquoBlood and Thunderrsquo (2004 Leviathan) as a three piece Brent Hinds could be seen on the side of the stage halfway into the song with his guitar showing a young lady how to play the song it was odd They finished the song and made their way off stage to a huge round of cheers and drunken shouting The lights came up and the show was over only one song for the encore was definitely kind of weird but their hour plus set was amazing so it wasnrsquot such a big deal The show was scheduled to end at 1130 so the plan from the outset had been to end with a three-song encore but the crowd did not seem to notice much Aside from that little hiccup it was an amazing day of underground music all culminating with headliners Mastodon who are not afraid to venture out into different territory and give the crowd a bang for their buck If they are coming to your town go see them if they arenrsquot buy all of their records you can this band deserves your support

MUTE MATH

10909 The Fillmore San Francisco California

Review amp Photos by Dave amp Mike Goedde MUTE MATH is arguably one of the most innovative and progressive bands to emerge within the electro alternative scene in the last decade Their unique sound and style is comprised of modern almost urban computerized melodies layered over unsubtle electric guitar string bass and quintessential rhythmic drum beats that combine to shatter the boundaries of what we know as traditional alternative rock and even electro alternative Stubble caught Mute Math in all their glory at the Fillmore in San Francisco Currently on the road supporting new release Armistice (2009 TelepromptWarner Bros) which debuted at 18 on Billboard Top 200 4 the Rock charts amp 3 on the Billboard Digital Albums and Billboard Alternative Albums charts the same week

Amongst the mixture of youthful new Armistice fans and Reset EP veterans no one could deny front man Paul Meanyrsquos stage presence was charismatic and ethereal yet warmly ordinary and down to earth as he connected on a more personal level by interacting graciously with enthused fans and occasionally allowing stage-front aficionados to play his keytar The foundation of the evening and no doubt the band as well was with drummer Darren King as he delivered his poundingly rhythmic beat with such clean conviction that it rightfully met its motion with just about every hand head and foot in the place

An entertaining encore saw the band take on unforgettable form when Paul performed stage acrobatics and hand stands over his keyboard While Greg Hill and Roy Mitchell-Caacuterdenas anchored the finale with taint-less guitar and stand up bass Darren banged away at a water-covered snare sending a menagerie of colorful glittery droplets skyward as they passed through stage lights on their way to musical heaven With arms outstretched the crowd astonishingly accepted Darrenrsquos bass drum into their lifted hands but not long before he stepped atop it and floated amongst his worthy supporters as the show soon ended unmuted Set List The Nerve Backfire Clipping No Response Armistice Stare At The Sun (expanded) Chaos Plan B Obsolete Electrify Odds Noticed Lost Year (expanded) Burden Typical Encore Pins and Needles Spotlight Reset (expanded) Break the Same In a live performance MUTE MATH undeniably commands your attention Simply put they are mesmerizing both visually and sonically

SLEEP 91210 Regency Ballroom

San Francisco California Written by Josh Kutras

Photos by Raymond Ahner Edited by Jeff Longo

In 1993 Pearl Jam ruled the airwaves with their number 1 album VS people were going to the movies to see Carlitorsquos Way in their flannels and torn jeans and a Black Sabbath inspired trio out of San Jose CA called Sleep would forever change the face of heavy music with their ground-breaking release Holy Mountain A sludge drenched skull crushing masterpiece of Toni Iommi riff worship played at quarter speed that would ultimately go on to inspire its own worship (see Stoner Metal) Seventeen years later guitarist Matt Pike and bass playervocalist Al Cisneros reunited for a ten day tour of the US performing Holy Mountain (Earache 1993) in its entirety Joining them will be Neurosis drummer Jason Roeder filling in for Chris Hakius Stubble was there to witness and ultimately document this prestigious event on the first of two sold out shows at the Regency Ballroom in San Francisco CA We arrived at the Regency Ballroom late missing the opener Thrones because some stupid bitch of a twenty something girl was busy texting and riding in my blind spot making me miss my exit There was a line from the front of the venue that stretched around the block and down the hills of SF filled with the metal faithful drinking tall cans from paper bags and passing joints to and fro When we got inside the theater it was packed floor and balcony alike a thick cloud of marijuana smoke hung loftily in the air above the crowd like a warning for an approaching storm of feedback laden doom Behind the drum riser was a giant screen sporting a picture of the great Tony Iommi in a frilly outfit with his signature Gibson SG the lights went down the crowd went wild and out walked the architects of the modern stoner rock sound The trio walked to each of their spots on the stage sans instruments and sticks and stood stoically staring into the crowd for what seemed like 5 minutes the crowd alternated between cheering and standing quietly in anticipation Then the marijuananaut a man in astronaut gear and presumably very high walked out and handed each member their given instruments and then they began to tune up This was classic Sleep a band that was in no rush to get where theyrsquore going stoned into oblivion and running at their own pace Matt Pike all tuned up and

plugged in struck the opening chord of JerusalemDopesmoker a sound so fucking loud I began looking around at the structure of the Regency to see if I could spot any cracks I mean Irsquove seen Motorhead and thought they were the loudest but I do believe Matt Pike has them beat by leaps and bounds The hessian warriors belted out the first 10 or 15 minutes of JerusalemDopesmoker with footage of the moon landing and close ups of buds playing behind them hence bringing a visual to the idea that they were exploring space and time through doom and marijuana When JerusalemDopesmoker ended the crowd was going fucking apeshit and the cloud of pot smoke dawdling in the rafters had grown much larger and much much thicker The sheer volume of the band playing together was amazing and physically exhausting It was much like exercising your ass off and feeling good yet a little spent but this wasnrsquot over by a long shot the night was young The stoned messiahs then ripped into their seminal recording Holy Mountain and holy shit Breaking out Dragonaut Some Grass Evil Gypsy-Solomonrsquos theme The Druid and more the band was pussy tight (to quote the great Pantera) and the sound for as loud as it was wasnrsquot muddy at all each instrument was clear and fucking loud did I mention that During the song Inside the Sun the band took two pauses in the middle to let their instruments feedback the first time for a minute or two and the second time for what Irsquom guessing is pretty close to five minutes did they do that on purpose or were they just really high Yes to both itrsquos fucking stoner rock for Christ sake The show was amazing I donrsquot know what else to say except for oh yeah for an encore they busted out Ozzyrsquos Over the mountain at about quarter to eighth speed awesome One of the best shows ever from one of the best bands ever a lot of bands and artists these days claim underground and DIY while wearing their free converse and doing interviews with Carson Daly but Sleep is the real thing A band that began their own movement bucking all the trends and gaining notoriety through word of mouth touring and just kicking ass true independents trail and bowl blazers indeed Days before I had seen SlayerMegadeth perform both Seasons in the Abyss and Rust in Peace in their entirety and now the same for Holy Mountain though this was more special as Sleep are not a functioning band year round it was like Christmas for fans of heavy music and each gift opened was a new bike and a bb gun or perhaps a jar of weed and bong would have been more appropriate for this occasion

I arrived too late to catch local openers Bomb and Scary but from what I heard from a couple of people at the bar they were very entertaining We waited a good 45 minutes after supporting act Mystic Ragersquos set was cut short before Mr Lawless and company took the stage The packed house went nuts as they opened with a medley of On Your Knees amp a cover of the Who classic The Real Me So far so good Next up 1984rsquos LOVE Machine and a new song Babylonrsquos Burning (2009 Babylon) it was very apocalyptic but rocked The Avalon was at full tilt as fan favorites Wild Child I Wanna Be Somebody I Donrsquot Need No Doctor and Blind in Texas were sung loud and proud by the faithful Although known for their stage shows this was a stripped down set with no theatrics is sight The new band was tight (Blackie is the only remaining original member) and the crowd was into to it but they didnrsquot play Animal (Fuck like a beast) Huh When you think of WASP that is the song that you think of right Commercially they were on the fringe of the LA hair metal scene that mainstreamed Motley Crue Quiet Riot and Ratt and in comparison only stepped into the spotlight for brief moments Not

surprising since they personified (and embraced) more the sleaze side of metal therefore limiting broad appeal Those brief moments were hits like like Animal and The Who cover Real Me I did a little research after the show and found a very interesting interview conducted by Norwayrsquos FVNno posted on Blabbermouthcom (in english) on October 2009 that may surprise you (I know I was) In a nutshell Blackie refuses to play that song and has dropped the theatrics that made WASP who they are due to helliphis religious faith Some excerpts On not playing Animal Blackie ldquoWe havenrsquot done that song for several years And itrsquos totally because of my religious faith and itrsquos something that I donrsquot want to do anymore and I will never play that song again hellipSo Irsquom looking at what Irsquom doing and Irsquom trying to create the best example that I can I donrsquot want 13-year-olds going around singing that song If thatrsquos something they wanna do later in their life thatrsquos their business But like I said itrsquos a question of faith and the religious conviction that I haverdquo On things he may not be proud of doing in the past ldquoBlackie ldquoYou have to understand that I believe that Irsquove been put here on this Earth to do a very specific thing This album lsquoBabylonrsquo that wersquore doing now really talks about whatrsquos going on with the Book Of Revelation and the bible ldquoSomeone asked me the other day They said lsquoAre you a rock and roll preacher nowrsquo I said lsquoNo But I am a messengerrsquo And thatrsquos what my job is So everything I did up to this point has led me to where I am nowrdquo On playing a basic show these days Blackie ldquoWhat yoursquore saying is Are you doing the blood anymore No Irsquom not doing it I donrsquot need that anymorehellipthe image of that early show spoke so loudly people were listening with their eyes and not their ears We did what we thought was abstract art and we were trying to make social comment within that and no one was getting the social comment they thought lsquoOh itrsquos a shock-rock bandrsquo Wersquove never considered ourselves a shock-rock band and to be honest even to this day I resent that I donrsquot like being considered that But I understand that the eyes are the dominant sense and so if yoursquore going to try and get your message across sometimes you have to simplify it to be able to do thatrdquo Huh Are you kidding me Not that there is anything wrong with that but this is WASP These guys achieved fame being a booze drug and sex soaked decadent pseudo-evil hair rocker band if yoursquore going to take a stand on a song then do it for all songs that fit the bill not just the one with the word fuck in it Listen everyone is entitled to change and revelation but maybe he should start a new project not under the WASP banner Maybe Blackie Lawless (of WASP) and the Divine shredders Overall ndash It was still a GOOD show Donrsquot get me wrong they rocked the songs they did they play but in the end it lacked a little bit of the original spirit of WASP (OK a lot of it) If you are a fan I would definitely recommend you check them out The Avalon is a great place to see a show Prices reasonable security and staff are approachable and keep a pretty clean house so no bullshit Expect a thorough pat down upon entry) Sound was awesome and perfectly mixed throughout the room Lights are strong and bright but lacked variety

The high priests of Midwestern darkness are leading the thrash revival Preaching year round touring and an explosive stage show SkeletonWitch has caught the eye of the metal masses landing them a coveted spot on the 2010 edition of Ozzfest (featuring Ozzy Halford Kataklysm Kingdom of Sorrow amp many more) Stubble literally bumped into lead screamer Chance Garnette and drummer Derrick ldquoMullet Chadrdquo Nau outside of the Regency Ballroom SF after their opening set on the Children of Bodom and The Black Dahlia Murder tour Chance We are from Athens Ohio a little college town Um itrsquos a really tiny little college town when therersquos no students therersquos no town Itrsquos a good time though lotta fuckinrsquo weed to smoke Derrick grew up there his whole life Stubble So you guys are from Athens Ohio not Georgiahellip Derrick Yes sir Chance We get confused with that a lot sometimes but no dude yoursquore right Ohio Stubble Do people get it confused with where REM is from sometimes Chance There like ldquoYoursquore from where REM is fromrdquo No dude wersquore actually not therersquos no one from Athens Ohio Derrick Sarah Jessica Parker is from real close byhellip Chance Nelsonville Derrick Yupwhich is about a stonersquos throw from Athenshellip Stubble Irsquoll bet she was a slut in high schoolhellip Chance Dude I donrsquot know shersquos a lot older than me I was hoping shersquod be barking up my tree by now buthellipNo such luck Stubble Shersquos got a big horse face but a nice bodyhellip Chance Dude I like that ugly hot Stubble Do you do the David Lee Roth thing on tour and grab a shitty old ten speed and check out the towns yoursquore in after the show Derrick Nahh I am not good with a bike I tried to ridehellip Chance Irsquom not trying to ride a bicycle Irsquom 37 years old Irsquom riding a motorcycle Derrick I rode with some friends of mine and I hated every second of it I ended up putting the bike in

someonersquos car and got a ride home I was like fuck this Irsquom not riding home Stubble You guys have a new album out Chance Yeah itrsquos out October 13th Stubble Who did you guys have behind the boards on that Chance We did the album with Jack Endino he did the new Toxic Holocaust 3 inches of blood and things like High on Fire he did Nirvana- Bleachhellip Stubble Whatrsquos the name of the album Chance Breathing the Fire and you know with metal today a lot of it sounds too digital or just too mechanical thatrsquos a better term than digital because digital is everything now We just wanted to go with big drums that sound like drums guitars that sound big and warm you know like Rock lsquonrsquo roll sounding And with Jack having that background of never doing as far as I know a band that is really going to go ahead and blast beat ya I thought it would be a good match If he did Nirvana which is really the most organic thing ever what would a Nirvana recording guy do with Skeletonwitch material I was really interested in that like thatrsquos what I want Because soon as we smoke weed man wersquore not trying to drive machinery wersquore playing instruments So uh I think it came out perfect just what I was looking for and I think thatrsquos the first time Irsquove ever recorded an album that I was stoked when it was done Stubble How long you been doing this Chance Um you know Irsquove definitely been in the bands that you go and play a show and you get stoked on every show I mean we still get stoked on every show but every show back then wasnrsquot so frequent Irsquom playing daily now which is my fucking dream come true to play daily but you know when you first start out yoursquore like ldquoMan we got two shows in a monthrdquo Itrsquos a big fuckinrsquo deal Irsquove done that so much itrsquos just like ughh got in a fight wersquore done bands over You know Irsquom 37 I graduated in 1990 so I guess since lsquo90ish been in and out of bands that suck (laughs) Well yeah Nobodies in their very first band I believe I mean maybe somebody And uh Big Red the big redheaded kid in our band stage left Nathan hersquos my brother So Irsquove been in a lot of bands with him and just to be in our basement as kids and you know I played drums forever this is the first band Irsquove ever been a singer in Skeletonwitch Natersquos always been our guitar player and we been inhellip I donrsquot even know maybe four bands together four failed attemptshellip Stubble Who do you count among your influences Chance We love Overkill Fuck yeah That was a high five you guys heard that Yeah we love Overkill I remember Nate being in high school myself already been graduated and uh we werenrsquot touring musicians he went to school and I worked a stupid job Every time they would come through we would always be there I must have seen them like 17ish times Stubble A great stage show how important is it to bring that element to the live performance Chance I believe the shows need to be something other than dudes shredding their ass off but not moving a millimeter just looking at that guitar neck like ldquoDudes Irsquom totally shredding your face off right nowrdquo Yeah but

dude you havenrsquot moved a fuckinrsquo inch Have fun dude donrsquot look so serious and move your god damn feet So yeah I think heavy metal should be larger than life it should be a show it should be fun it should be over the top a release To me thatrsquos what it is

CD Reviews

ALOUD ndash Exile

(Lemon Merchant Records) This Boston bandrsquos latest is strangely interesting with a deceptive lushness to the ndash at first ndash apparent emo sound Quieter more subtle and harmonious than their previous 2 efforts Appealing ndash KH

BLACK HELICOPTOR

Donrsquot Fuck With the Apocalypse (Ecstatic Peace)

Somewhere between Captain Beefheart and David Byrne chaotic but not excessively so Darkly lyrical alt rock with a voice like Iggy Pop but different delivery Curious Check it out ndash KZ

ATROCITY SOLUTION Tomorrows Too Late

(Tent City Records) Hard to classify this band 7 cuts going from metal skapunkmetal ska metal and ldquoScales of Injusticerdquo features an acoustic-style intro segues into ska Reggae then melds into ska punk OK and cuts 5 and 6 sound like metal Then ldquoRequiemrdquo has an acoustic-style intro blending gradually into a loud punkmetal cacophony Kind of Sublime-like but with a more threatening metal sound Something for if not everybody then a lot of different audiences If you donrsquot like ldquoThe Protest Songrdquo push the button and listen to ldquoChange the Channelrdquo Get it ndash KH

THE BIRTHDAY MASSACRE

Pins and Needles (Metropolis Records)

ldquoAlwaysrdquo starts with a bold musical cacophony and bangs along behind the vocals The refrain is the best part but you have to wait for it making the song seem a bit too long Interesting lyrics and percussion for example in ldquoSleepwalkingrdquo I like the line ldquoI was never hererdquo Altogether a harder sound than their previous CD Walking With Strangers ndash TDS

BLOODY amp THE TRANSFUSIONS (Black amp Blue Records)

The first and last CD from Bloody Mess and The Transfusions Bloody made his mark touring and playing with GG Allin in the 80s and with his band Bloody Mess amp The Skabs This has the punk spirit but this band cranks out an album chock full of stoner songs sure to please a college frat party The other lyrics cover topic like mainstream radio on FMFU touring in Texas (Minds Blown In San Antonerdquo) and Bloodys years of playing in punk clubs in Dive Bar Superstar I heard it was written about Bloody and he liked it and recorded it WTF- Billy Cobb

BOWLING FOR SOUP Sorry For Partyinrsquo

(Jive Records) Like a cross between Sublime and Me First and the Gimmee Gimmees ndash if you like them yoursquoll enjoy this Aside from the rude and funny ldquoMy Wenardquo ldquoNo Habla Inglesrdquo is definitely worth a listen among others (Try this too when people try to sell you stuff on the street simply say ldquoI donrsquot speak any Englishrdquo If they persist follow it up with ldquoNot a God Damn wordrdquo) - KH

CASA MENDOZA (Mascot Records)

Oooh Oooh 3 covers Stevie Wonderrsquos ldquoLiving For the Cityrdquo is first and the sound but not the spirit of the song is really reconstructed I think Stevie would like it Kind of a Tower of Power-style rendition but more original than that ldquoSuzy Qrdquo is a whispered intimate conversational song that becomes a little reminiscent of James Brown plus George Clinton again a nice (re-) interpretation Then therersquos ldquoYou Got A Friendrdquo (written by Carole King but popularized by James Taylor) Quiet pianissimo intro with spiritual-style vocals Very nice Oh yeah - also 10 spirited originals Highly recommended ndash KH

CHASER The Big Picture

1st 2 a bit operatic punk pop woman singer Next 2 fun guy sings ldquoIrsquom a loser ndash but you love merdquo Cute ndash CC

CHROMATIC BLACK (OK Good Records)

Reminds me of The Fratellis only harder I like it very much - TDS

COMBICHRIST Making Monsters

(Metropolis Records) Floor stompin dance tunes from this band notable for its raw emotion and total lack of poseur attitude ldquoNever Surrenderrdquo is a mooshily-punctuated dance tune that keeps changing back and forth among at least 3 different styles Cool ndash KH

DIVERSITY IS AN OLD WOODEN SHIP 500 Days Of Summer EP

Thrash punk with just a tasteful enough splash of horns to be considered ska Its like nothing youve ever heard before Think Bad Religion meets Social Distortion meets Less Than Jake Edgy lyrical witty and not afraid to get in your face Diversity Is An Old Wooden Ship is in a league all of their own Music world prepare yourself because DIAOWS is here to stay ndash Joe G

ELECTRIC SIX

Zodiac (Metropolis Records)

Oh look a cover of ldquoRubberband Manrdquo Anyway 12 songs appropriate number for the Zodiac title They rarely do covers no reason to with material like ldquoAmerican Cheeserdquo and dissonant rhythm-infected ldquoClusterfuckrdquo Plus they make ldquodruidrdquo rhyme with (Boston) ldquobruinrdquo Love those creative near rhymes Also the song lyric ldquoIt ainrsquot punk rock till the punk rockers say itrsquos punk rockrdquo Too true ndash CC

MATT FARR (Red Key Entertainment)

Mr Farr has a nice voice and they shouldnrsquot compare him to Billy Joel Cuz hot funk cool punk even if itrsquos old junk itrsquos still Billy Joel to me ldquoCrying Sunrdquo is the best cut ndash more like a cross between Little Feat and sort of a countrified Cat Stevens Nice piano too - KH

JESSE amp THE HOGG BROTHERS

White Trash Meth Lab (Black amp Blue Records)

When I heard the opening track America I said oh no another typical pop country act (not that there is anything wrong with that) waving the flag and all that Then there is a song about robbing trains that is a cross between Johnny Cash and Charlie Daniels called The Ballad Of Brack

Cornett followed by a cute love song From there I got a my feet tapping to the colorful story of Biker Ann before I totally cracked up listening to the title cut these guys are nuts But my favorite off the CD House Husband is what every woman really wants a man to do all the housework cooking and shopping and still put out (like all the fellahs expect us to do) People say country music is about losing your job your love your dog but these guys are just plain down to earth funny Not belly laughs but the lyrics bring a smile and a chuckle and the music is like the classic stars from the 70s not pop music with a twang that we call country music today I can honestly say this is the best country CD I have heard since Hank IIIs Straight To Hell Hell it even has a Christmas

song as the last track that deserves airplay Everybody Loves When Its Christmas These boys from Bosque County TX are going straight to my iPod - LJ

LOVESPIRALS Future Past

(BMI) Is this album title a Moody Blues album reference They cite Marvin Gaye and Pink Floyd as influences so thatrsquos the same general time period The dynamic songwriting pair strikes again with this well-produced set of harmonious cuts running the gamut of styles and genre together again Try ldquoRainrdquo for a good example ndash CC

PAUL MANOUSOS Crsquomon Crsquomon

(ShockampFall Recordings) Cover of ldquoWichita Linemanrdquo ndash the high notes are better than Glenn Campbellrsquos but a Tom Petty whininess sneaks in at times Billy Joel playing acoustic guitar ndash and I donrsquot mean that in a nice way eiher If you like Billy Joel you might like this but I didnrsquot ndash KZ

MEAT BEAT MANIFESTO Answers Come In Dreams

(Metropolis Records) Even more minimalisticindustrial than their previous work Itrsquos good for a soundtrack but not what yoursquod call easy listening ndash and if so Lou Reedrsquos Metal Machine Music would be a better choice Good music for people who used to work in a factory and miss the noise - KZ

H E MILLER Apocalyptic Dreams

(self released) How topical a song about Jesse James The real one Not Jesse Jane 5 a bit o Johnny Winter ldquoWhite Lighteningrdquo is the best cut No 9 is the best Retro - TDS

JOHN NORUM ndash Play Yard Blues

(Mascot Records) A Swede Much heavier than expected True hard blues a la Johhny Winter (ldquoLet It Shinerdquo) and also (ldquoRed Light Green Highrdquo) reminds me of Yes Nice and heavy ndash TDS OUTBREAK (Trustkill Records) 15 cuts including ldquoThe Countdown Beginsrdquo which is on the Saw VI movie soundtrack But pick any cut itrsquos all the harsh rage of Outbreak ldquoToo Paranoid for Politicsrdquo is a killer example Check this out Reminds me of ldquoBreakinrsquo the Law Breakinrsquo the Lawrdquo You canrsquot keep a metal punk down ndash KH

PAPER AEROPLANES

The Day We Ran Into The Sea (OK Good Records)

This alt-pop duo from Wales is awesome Starting with the first cut ldquoClicheacuterdquo The lyrics and music are heartfelt and sometimes heartbreaking ldquoNewport Beachrdquo makes me wish I could sing like Sarah Actually my fave is one of the 3 bonus tracks ldquoMy First Loverdquo Check it out - KH

RED - Innocence amp Instinct (Sony Music)

I do like their cover of ldquoOrdinary Worldrdquo ndash but I am known for liking covers especially the hard ones Twin brothers Anthony and Randy Armstrong play guitar and bass Some nice piano in some cuts but not credited Bonus DVD included ndash TDS RELIANT K

Forget and Not Slow Down (Jive Records)

Kind of a punk Beach Boys sound and emotion The singer sees a car accident and hopes no onersquos seriously hurt Rather sweet actually Itrsquos known as Christian rock Well not obnoxiously so ndash and take it from me I went to Christian summer camp and owned multiple copies of Good News For Modern Man But I digresshellip - TDS

THE RUNNING KIND The Girl For All The World (Bossonova Music Records)

Twang vocals well done a great bunch of musicians but I have to say I like the covers better ndash George Jones Gram Parsons Neil Younghellip The George Jones cover is really top notch ndash I listened to it more than twice tell you what The Running Kind BTW is a Merle Haggard song Anyway the rhymes in their original stuff are a little forced a little too pat Still all in all a great listen - CC

S G ndash Bonafied (Southern Stisles Records)

S G is a fresh gangsta rapper whorsquos apparently a Louisiana boy ndash so you know hersquos got a knife on him some where I was not disposed to enjoy this disc but I did He really is gangsta fresh ndash creative confident original and talkative Yeah I liked that some of the cuts were introduced or interspersed with some random talk Makes it more real Also that drop a dime reference My favorite is ldquoSo Gangstardquo ndash gee thatrsquos what SG stands forhellip BTW I had the non-Parental Advisory version ndashradio version ndash and I appreciate that the (euphemistically named) profanities were silent rather than bleeped So much less jarring and we all know whatrsquos being omitted anyway ndash DB

ERIC SAGE ndash Redeem My Heart

(Global Sonic Records) A very experienced group of musicians ndash the bassist and guitar have both worked with Don Henley but still it doesnrsquot really get into its mellow rocking until the third cut ldquoShe Likes Me Better Than Yourdquo ndash KH

SAVING ABEL

(Skiddco MusicVirgin Records) Interestingly the first 2 songs the thrashy ldquoNew Tattoordquo and sexy ldquoAddictedrdquo express opposite points of view Itrsquos an interesting juxtaposition and of course not an unusual love youhate you expression of relationships I hope theyrsquore about 2 different love interests not the same person Worth a listen for sure ndash KH

The SCRAPPERS -

Let The Punishment Begin (Black amp Blue)

So what is a Scrapper Why are they are here to kick my ass I mean I dont want to get my ass kicked really Maybe I can kick my ass myself Ouch that hurt According to the PR kit singerguitarist Johnny G-String was a founding member of midwest stoner punk rock favorites Bloody amp The Transfusions so I expected a bit of that to be on the album It really wasnt instead I got a blast of straight forward rock with great lyrics Johnny left Bloody right before they began to record the outfits only CD with Johnny stating that he split off on his own to be taken more seriously Johnny always wanted to do his songs and the resulting CD has songs written over a 3 year span Ol Johnny plays some nice lead guitar throughout but never strays too far from the song in say an experimental way that bores you From my favorite track I Want To Kill You But Im Afraid To to the finale Concrete it is a fast listen The ballad Dreams is the cut to check out if you only want to try one Rockers including Six Reasons and Kenosha(the song dedicated to the late punk rock legend Beautiful Bert a good friend of Johnnys) then there are songs that provide a blast of metal like the back to back tracks Prelude To Death and All Must Die hmmm need to spin this one again Now I get it What makes this album is the variety of styles that formulate The Scrappers sound So pick one up and crank it up because these Scrappers do indeed KICK ASS - DB

WALTER SCHREIFELS An Open Letter to the Scene

Some nice moments and a nice voice I like ldquoDonrsquot Gotta Prove Itrdquo the best nice rhymes and a bouncy positivity ndash ldquoFuck lsquoem theyrsquore all wrongrdquo ndash WG

SABBATH ASSEMBLY

Restored To One ( Feral House)

Not your typical church music at all with far more twang and percussion than I expected Religious but direct Sound pretty and powerful too ndash KH

SHREDDING THE ENVELOPE

The Call Of The Flames (Standstill and Scream Music)

Thrash and shredding as advertised Well done Thanks to Dave Mustaine for advising Dave Reffett to stay in school ndash well it was Berklee College of Musichellip ndash KH

THE SKABS Revenge Of The Skabs (Black amp Blue Records)

Is there a punk rock Hatfields vs McCoys going on in Illinois I dont really understand all that except that Bloody Mess left The Skabs and these guys seem to be upset about it The back cover art looks a lot like Bloody amp The Transfusions CD Cover Hmmm you might think it was intentional or something like that I was frightened by the opening track Hate and Im not exaggerating either I mean I dont think I had such a strange feeling from any song that I got from it After that the album is old school punk rock with cool tunes like Junkie Dying For You Get Up and Empty Too Then there is a song that sounds out of place that is more like a soundtrack for a low budget porn movie called Skab Style - its like disco with no production added really A great punk rock album That said it sure as hell looks like the Bloody Mess amp The Skabs reunion is a long way from anytime soon if you catch my new disease - Billy Cobb

SMIRNOV ndash Privet Earth

(Rock Justice Music) 1st cut ldquoIrsquom A Phukenrsquo Angelrdquo well let me tell you the alternative spelling of fuck is not going to help with radio play Too bad cause itrsquos a good song A little falsetto never hurts when yoursquore calling someone a bitch ndash just ask James Brownhellip Anyway this CD includes a clean version so maybe thatrsquos OK and also a bonus video of same Very interesting I wonder if he drinks it straight And boxers or briefs - CC

SPOCKrsquoS BEARD ndash X

(Music Theory Recordings) Six interesting songs Some ska-ishness piano ending on ldquoEdge of the In-Betweenrdquo Itrsquos hard for me to tell whether Irsquom still listening to the same song So varied is the positive slant on that ldquoThe Emperorrsquos Clothesrdquo is my favorite Punk with a Queen-like operatic sound All the songs are long though ndash the shortest being ldquoKamikazerdquo at 414 and the longest 1710 ldquoFrom the Darknessrdquo ndash CC

STAR FUKING HIPSTERS Volume II Never Rest In Peace

(Alternative Tentacles Records) Yes 2 thumbs up Wild crazy music and lyrics recorded produced and mastered by as well as performed by a totally music-biz-incestuous cast of idiots ldquoHeavenrdquo is my fave just because of how they raspily scream ldquoannihilationrdquo and at the end say ldquoI love yourdquo Fun stuff Donrsquot be afraid to check this out ndash KH

THREE DAYS GRACE Life Starts Now

(RCAJive Label Group) ldquoBreakrdquo the new single on this their 3rd album High energy with dark lyrics kinda like a Canadian Disturbed ndash TDS

TOADIES ndash Feeler (Kirtland Records)

The long-awaited follow-up to 1994rsquos Rubberneck despite the hit ldquoPossum Kingdomrdquo on that CD Interscope decided not to put this one out Now itrsquos out on Kirtland and ldquoDead Boyrdquo is my favorite on this album ndash note it is not a cover ldquoSuck Magicrdquo in contrast is a more mellow yet poppy alt rock number Pretty rockin stuff from the Fort Worth area ndash KH

TOPANGA RANCH MOTEL (Silent City Records)

A 4-song EP with traditional but exuberant style LA country music with elegant fiddle runs and guitar licks Nice vocals too ndash DB

TWO MILE

OK yeah he is an Okie from Muscogie but olrsquo Merle (Haggard not Allin) is not listed as one of his influences I was also thinking is 2 Mile numerically logistically frac14 of 8 Mile But Mr Jeremy Kearns deserves better than that for his heartfelt lyrics and mellow acousticness The intro of the opening cut ldquoPerfect Worldrdquo actually reminds me a little of Yesrsquo ldquoRoundaboutrdquo but then it resolves to

the hopesadnessacceptance of waiting for test results to tell if his wife has cancer (BTW she didnrsquot) Deep ndash DB

PAUL TURNER - Another World

(Turtle Productions) Splendid cello and piano work on this 2nd CD from Mr Paul Turner New Zealander and producer of Beijing Punk a documentary ndash Ron Hall

JERRY VELONA - Random Emotion

(Karunabird Records) ldquoLeave Me Alonerdquo has a country twang guitar with interesting lyrics ldquoTalk to the Ossiferrdquo is more bluesy with horns Nice individualistic music hard to categorize but well executed ldquoWedding Band Tanrdquo the bonus track is a boot scooter with Wanda B Free crooning nicely about a woman who has a tan line where her wedding ring was ndash a cheaterrsquos ring we used to call it in Texas A nice tune but it could have faster tempo - DB

WITHOUT MF ORDER Desensitivity Training (Black amp Blue Records)

Hide the kids it says before the first song starts and I cant argue with that These self proclaimed scumrockers from St Louis crank out a combination of metal and punk with a high dose of testosterone and angst Led by vocalist Captain Perverto you can be sure the parental advisory sticker is well earned They cover a slew of topics from reality TV

music contests bar fights rape drugs alcohol world hunger violence and unmentionable topics too My favorite is This Bloodrsquos For You where Cap (if I can call him that) explains why he gives his all in the bandrsquos live shows that always end up with him seeing red As graphic as they are they do it all with a sick and twisted sense of humor Not for everybody but if you like it fast brutal and raw check them out - Billy Cobb

VANISH VALLEY

(Hard Bark) Psycho folkadelia Some nice ringing guitar in the first song ldquoBad Thingsrdquo ldquoHome Firesrdquo is more straight acoustic country and oddly enough itrsquos my favorite pick I like the lyric ldquoYoursquoll be all right cause yoursquove been all right beforerdquo - KH PS ndash The writing (is it a font) on this CD case looks like it says ldquoPfish Valleyrdquo Confusing for Pfish anti-fans and others as well Just FYI

Compilations amp Soundtracks

DORM SESSIONS 7 (Heavy Rotation Records)

Hmmm When I lived in a dorm ldquosessionsrdquo had nothing to do with playing music ndash except albums on the stereo Two songs each by 9 musicians The first 2 by Ann Driscoll are operatic and profane ndash a nice combination I like ldquoI Wanna Be Your Zombierdquo But the best pair of songs is by Jordan Tarrant and the best of these 2 is called ldquoIrsquom a Loser (But You Love Me)rdquo Overall a nice variety of music here ndash KH

MUSIC TO MAKE YOUR EARS HURT TREY

(Black amp Blue Records) I missed the first 2 installments of this label that is proud of making ears hurt and I cant say mine really did listening to this sampler of their artists There are little interludes of what I guess they think is comedy with the best being a commercial for a meat market They sure sound like they are having fun You get songs from Without MF Order Jesse amp The Hogg Brothers Cedar Street Sluts Blue Nouveaux CherryBombs DK and Bloody amp The Transfusions previewing their new albums and other artists like Renegade Slve Swell Chemistry and Lena Luna A very diverse collection of music that is certainly not even close to mainstream with a dark edge Underground music for those who want it You might have to dig deep to find - Laurie Johnson

SAW VI ndash

Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (Trustkill Records)

The lineup on this movie soundtrack is incredible 18 cuts by 18 killer bands including Kittie Converge Shadows Fall It Dies Today and more ldquoLethal Injectionrdquo by The Flood is my personal fave screamo threat on this CD Scary ndash CC

DVD Reviews

DIRTY

The Official ODB Biography (Zu Films)

Olrsquo Dirty Bastard Wu Tang Clan ndash I thought this was going to be about Old Dime Bag from Pantera Well they are both ndash um late Glad I didnrsquot give it to a Pantera fan friend of mine He would have clocked me Anyway beside ODB Method Man is the only one Irsquod actually heard much about So who was ODB what was he really like and why did he die These burning Qs are all answered in this in-depth documentary ndash TDS

THE SACRED TRIANGLE ndash

Bowie Iggy amp Lou 1971 ndash 1973 (Sexy Intellectual)

Above is the pic on the back cover ndash I like it more than the cover illustration Interesting footage but most of the commentators were Brits Two points of the triangle are American and Bowie did meet the other 2 in NYC However aside from the group photo I donrsquot see the triangle as having equal sides Bowie may well have influenced the others and vice versa but Lou and Iggy never performed together that I know of Maybe the connection of these 3 really started with Warhol (who condoned and encouraged Nicorsquos relationship with Iggy) Well as you can tell I found this one thought provoking Definitely worth a screening ndash DB

THE STRANGLERS

On Stage On Screen Norfolk Coast (New Wave Pictures)

An interesting DVD in the fact that it is the last DVD with Paul Roberts as lead vocalist for this European favourite band with roots in the 70s punk rock phenomenon You get an acoustic set of 7 songs including the unreleased Santie Kuss The bands first film is up next and it features most notably actress Susannah York in a very bizarre film to say the least In 2 viewings of it I am still confused by it so do not expect me to splain it to you Then the electric portion of the show begins and what is most interesting is the inclusion of Summat Outanowt off the album Suite XVI where Paul is not included The show to me is to me a little like the last show with Hugh as like him or not Paul was the bands face since that night Ill be the first to say I like the Baz Warne 4 man band as much or more and not to take anything away from Paul THis set is solid with Paulrsquos renditions of classics like Always The Sun Peaches No More Heroes and more 20 songs in all - KC

JOHNNY WINTER ndash

Live Through the lsquo80s (MVD Visual)

This DVD contains a lot more covers than I remember on his albums ldquoJumpinrsquo Jack Flashrdquo ldquoJohnny B Gooderdquo for example Interesting to hear those My fave of the originals is ldquoWhen You Got A Good Friendrdquo which has (always had) a bit of old-school Derek and the Dominos type feel to it Therersquos great footage of Johnny with his hat and tats wailing and workin that axe Filmed all over the world including Sweden Italy and Nashua NH I was in Francestown NH recently at their general store and there was a poster for a Johnny Winter concert I said Hey Ken Johnny Winter and the store proprietor said I thought he was dead I said No hes Still Alive and Well True JW aficionados will appreciate the reference ndash KH

FRANK ZAPPA - The Freak-Out List

(Sexy Intellectual) Incredibly insightful and thoroughly documented look at the various musical genres that influenced Franks music From classical to jazz to rock Frank drew on an eclectic mix of seeming unrelated artists amp styles yet managed to fuse them all into an amalgam of coherent madness rooted in of all things a hearty doo-wop base Even the assortment of pretentious Jicky pricks who weigh in on Franks genius dont detract from what amounts to a college level musical appreciation class on the Zappa legacy I give this 88 minute film my highest recommendation ndash JV

Book Reviews

REPO MEN - Eric Garcia

(Harper 2009 Eric Garciarsquos Repo Men (recently released as a motion picture and not to be confused with Repo Man) A fascinating (hopefully fantastic) view of the possible directions where medical care and science may be headed the narrator works for the Credit Union repossessing artificial organs when the buyers get behind on the payments I donrsquot know if I could handle the movie as itrsquos sure to be very bloody but then again I walked out on RoboCop the first time I saw it so consider the sourcehellip but check out some of Garciarsquos other books about dinosaur detectives cleverly disguised as humans OK herersquos the justifying music link-in one was originally titled The Repossession Mambo and the other has a 6-degree separation from Madonnarsquos ldquoJustify (Your Love)rdquo Speaking of which I canrsquot wait to hear the movie soundtrack CD Hint hint ndash KH

ULTRAVIOLET ndash 69 BLACKLIGHT POSTERS FROM THE

AQUARIAN AGE AND BEYOND ndash Dan Donohue (Abrams Books 2009)

A beautifully printed book in day-glo colors with thumbnails of each on a 2-page spread that provides title and artist Jesus boobs ands bikers figure prominently as do many depictions of pot leaves and mushrooms If I had to pick a favorite itrsquos Nancy Parkerrsquos Citadel itrsquos kind of a mandala Amazing trippy and nostalgic BTW you owe me $2 for the black light bulb ndash KH

SAXOPHONE COLOSSUS ndash A Portrait of Sonny Rollins

(Abrams Books 2010) Another beautifully executed book from Abrams Hard cover large format includes not just John Abbottrsquos hundreds of photos but also the commentary by Bob Blumenthal Sonny Rollins turns 80 this year and this book is a wonderful tribute to the man his life and his art It would be an insult to call this a coffee table book Even the endpapers are suitably artistic color pages of sheet music waiting to be written ndash KH

KILLING JOHNNY FRY ndash Walter Mosley (Bloomsbury USA 2006)

I just read Walter Mosleyrsquos Killing Johnny Fry Like Elmore Leonardrsquos novel about Cuba this was not what I expected or wanted from the author of the Easy Rawlins series and many others This is too much painful degrading cringe-inducing (and not only for women) sex which is either a warning or a recommendation depending on your tastes BTW as Zebbyn noted I did finish reading it ndash KH
