El nuevo de Morrissey
"Ringleader Of The Tormentors" se editará el 3 de Abril en Attack/Sanctuary Records y será prededido por el single, "You Have Killed Me," el 27 de Marzo
El disco saldrá en una edición standard y también en una edición especial que incluirá un DVD con el videoclip del single
El nuevo lp se ha grabado en Roma, con producción de Tony Visconti y Ennio Morricone aporta arreglos de cuerda.
La cultura italiana es la nueva fascinación de Morrissey, que pasó largos meses en Roma mientras elaboraba las canciones de su noveno trabajo. La única aberración de la ciudad de Roma, explica, “es la cantidad de mujeres que llevan pieles de animales asesinados”.
En una carta al semanario británico New Musical Express, el cantante asegura: “Las canciones me colocan al borde del optimismo, aunque confío en alejarme de allí cuando lleguen las críticas. A mí no me resulta natural el dejarme querer por el público. Si viviéramos en 1773, seguramente ya me habrían colgado y quemado.”
El directo de The Go Betweens
He podido escuchar el cd (no he visto el DVD) audio de That Striped Sunlight Sound y suena realmente bien. Es más yo diría que incluso las canciones de "Oceans Apart" suenan mucho mejor que las originales, aunque -bueno- tampoco es muy difícil esto pues por alguna extraña razón "Oceans Apart" suena bastante mal.
La rareza es "Black Mule" una cara B que grabó Grant McLennan en solitario en el 12" de "When Word gets around" y que aquí suena muy bien

Mira en tu buzón la lista de inconseguibles que te mandé, si es que te ha llegado el email). Carlos y yo ya tenemos también preparados nuestros cdrs. Próxima entrega de los mismos, aunque creo que este domingo no podrá ser por incompatibilidad con el horario granota. Juegan a las 17, 30.
La chica de la foto -Ute Lemper- estará en mi lista, que nadie se asuste; la canción es de Costello

Love Dance: Reviviendo el sonido de Sarah Records
No son los Another Sunny Day o Field Mice del 89, pero casi. Son noruegos y favoritos de Richard Preece (Lovejoy, Snowdrops) y Jimmy Tassos (Matinee Records) y hasta ahora sólo tienen un single en Marsh Marigold. En su web http://www.lovedancepop.com/index.html te puedes descargar tres canciones, una de su ep de debut, una demo y un avance de lo que será su primer lp, ésta -it sometimes brings me down" recien colgada.
Esto es lo que comenta Eirik Vestrheim en twee.net:
Love Dance combines the warm sound of jangly guitars with the sound of drum machines and keyboards to make melodic, clean pop music. The songs have the polyphonic quality that pop music can have at its best; a kind of melancholy that sounds uplifting, the perfect combination between happiness and sadness. Love Dance is the sound of four boys from Bergen, and is inspired by the things they encounter every day. The streets, the buildings, the sea, and the relationships that occur in-between these things. The happiness and the decay. It's both social realism and escapism.
The Servants reeditados
noticia gentileza de Carlos:
se trata de un cd que incluye -entre otros- sus dos primeros eps, sin duda lo mejor que hicieron. La foto corresponde a su primer single, la melancólica "She´s always hiding"
Feburary sees the Cherry Red label release an album called ’Reserved’ by The Servants (CDMRED 297). The Servants were formed in London in 1985 and were based around the carefully crafted guitar work of David Westlake. Phil King who went onto play with Felt and Biff Bang Pow, was also in the band. Their first two singles, ’She’s Always Hiding’ and ’The Sun, A Small Star,’ both on The Head label, attracted good press interest and both made the independent singles chart. Westlake then went on to a solo deal with Creation Records while The Servants reformed around future Auteurs and Black Box Recorder man, Luke Haines.
Also involved in the new line up was Hugh Whitaker who had previously been with the Housemartins. Luke Haines wrote the sleeve notes for this release. With sleevenotes from Luke Haines this is a long overdue retrospective.

- RED CARPET "the noise of red carpet" (quince records) COMING 2/27/2006
Second album by the unsung heroes of Finnish indie pop, now available in the US! Sharing two members with jangle and shuffle meisters Ultrasport, Red Carpet's new album is further testimony to the vitality of the (criminally overlooked) pop scene currently bubbling under in Finland. These 12 gorgeous, colorful songs are the perfect new discovery for fans of everything from Nada Surf to Buffalo Springfield!

- SCARBORO AQUARIUM CLUB "Black swan days" (Becalmed)
COMING 2/27/2006
Black Swan Days is the follow-up to Scarboro Aquarium Club’s acclaimed debut Poisoned. Like its predecessor, this new album is mainly the work of Corey W Schmidt with help from a few collaborators. Corey’s passion for pop music is again present in 12 songs that draw equally from the folk songwriting of the 60s and 80s tecno-pop, with references to such different artists as Scott Walker (‘Blind Like The Sun’), Roxy Music (‘All Her Careful Plans’), Saint Etienne (‘Before The Morning Light’) and the exotic legacy of El Records (‘The Queen Of The Beach’). But more than anything, “Black Swan Days” is a contemporary record which follows a tradition of devoted music artisans that goes from Brian Wilson through Todd Rundgren to Stephin Merrit of the Magnetic Fields, artists who understand the pop craft as predominantly an individual process with the aim to become universal

COMING 3/20/2006
5013929445321. Evie Sands....one of the most astonishing female vocalists in the world, the favourite singer of Dusty Springfield among many others....yes, we've been through all this before, but....well...it needs to be said!.... After a series of critically acclaimed disappointments in the 1960s, Evie at last got her due with the sublime (and monster hit!) 1969 single and album "Any Way That You Want Me" on A&M (also on RevOla!).....a couple of years later, Evie was to team with Dennis Lambert and Brian Potter, erstwhile hitmakers at Dunhill Records....masterminds of the label's dazzling second run, going from re-inventing The Grass Roots as pop/soul hitmakers, to the personal triumph of relaunching the hit career of The Four Tops....On a roll, they were able to launch Haven Records, to which their first signing was Evie....for this superb album, written and produced by the duo, which was a huge success, both artistic and commercial for Evie, and spawned the hit singles "You Brought The Woman Out Of Me" and "I Love Makin' Love To You".....along with a raft of cover versions by Barbra Streisand, Gladys Knight, Dusty Springfield, Dobie Gray ("You Can Do It" Billboard Top 20, R&B Chart), Dionne Warwick, Frankie Valli, Cher and Greg Allman, The Manhattans, Phyllis Hyman, Jose Feliciano, Linda Clifford, June Pointer, Weather Girls, Liona Boyd, The Ebonys, Karen Carpenter, Tom Jones, Betty Everett, and many others.....a songwriting coup for Dennis and Brian, and for Evie herself.... So here we are, with the original album, as well as no less than 5 unreleased bonus tracks of stunning quality....another triumph for Evie....and for Lambert & Potter....and for RevOla!

Tender Trap, próximo lp
gran entrevista en http://www.popmatters.com/music/interviews/tender-trap-060202.shtml
Amelia, maravillosa y encantadora, como siempre.
Su próximo lp "Talking Backwards" -si, se titula como el ep de adelanto- está ya casi listo:
For the recording of Talking Backwards, the Tender Trap trio have been joined by Claudia Gonson (Magnetic Fields et al) on drums. After we’d finished talking, Amelia sent me MP3s of a couple of tracks from the album: "Six Billion People" and "Inuit Beauty Queen". Based on these songs and the new tracks on Language Lessons, it’s clear that Tender Trap have indeed move back towards their Heavenly blueprint while still retaining their latter day propensity for "fiddling around with electronics". This can only be a good thing.

Sibylle Baier- "Colour Green"
Format: CD
Catalog #: OTR022
Release Date: Feb. 7, 2006
Distributed by Secretly Canadian
"Colour Green" was recorded in Germany in the 1970-1973.
In a particularly dark and moody period of her young life, Claudine, a friend of Sibylle’s, dragged her out from under the bed and took her on a road trip to Strasbourg, ending up across the Alps in Genoa.
Upon the return from this trip Sibylle felt her sprits renewed and she set out to write the song "Remember the Day", grateful for being alive. It was the first song she ever wrote. Her music is simply amazing in its intimacy and closeness. Recorded in the late 70’s in her home on a reel to reel recording device, the songs on "Colour Green" are intimate portraits of life’s sad and fragile beauty. It is a gem of an album that will blow your mind. Sibylle is a star who chose to shine for her friends and family instead of the whole world.
Orange Twin Records is a record label and web site run by members of Elf Power which is raising funds for land preservation and sustainable development.

Essex Green
new record, Cannibal Sea
The Essex Green is a band based in Brooklyn NY. For their new album, Cannibal Sea, the band’s three principal songwriters - Chris Ziter, Sasha Bell and Jeff Baron - have assembled a collection of songs that speak to themes of travel, exploration, wanderlust and the desire for quiet niches amid the pressures of big city living. Like the protagonists in the opening lines of Don’t Know Why (You Stay) - “Stepping along the hum of the sidewalk / A marionette, a slave / Your legs are wood and tied to the city / Who has final say?” - the characters from the songs on Cannibal Sea display a yearning to break free of the boundaries and constrictions of city life. To escape the darkness and fatigue, to move on to more lighthearted settings surrounded by water, replete with the spray of the sea, the gentle lift and sway of a boat on the waves.
Cannibal Sea is the third full-length release from The Essex Green, who, though based in Brooklyn, have roots in more pastoral climes such as Vermont and Ohio. Ziter, Bell and Baron share vocal duties across the album and, with the help of some exceptionally talented friends and collaborators, unfurl a diverse range of styles and influences.
Listening to Cannibal Sea is like leafing through a songbook of classic pop. These 12 songs blend the old with the new, incorporating the country rock mood of The Byrds, the Greenwich Village balladry of Fred Neil and the acoustic pop harmonizing of the Mamas and The Papas. Add a little of the pure pop perfection of The Monkees to traces of contemporary artists such as The Shins, The Hidden Cameras and Jens Lekman and you have The Essex Green’s recipe for timeless pop that is classic without being retro. Recorded over the course of a year in several locations in Brooklyn and Ohio, and points in between, Cannibal Sea is The Essex Green’s most cohesive and accomplished album to date.
La Sexta promete
Van a emitir las nuevas series de los creadores de Seinfield y Frasier:
La Sexta ha comprado los derechos de las series ’Curb your enthusiasm’, ’The Office’, ’Entourage’ y ’Out of Practice’, producciones que más han destacado en las grandes cadenas norteamericanas en las últimas temporadas y que han contado con el apoyo unánime de la crítica, lo que las ha convertido en series de culto en EEUU.
En ’Curb your enthusiasm’, Larry David, creador de la mítica Seinfield da un giro de tuerca al concepto de sitcom. En esta particular comedia, el protagonista se interpreta a si mismo mostrando imágenes de la vida cotidiana del creador que son recogidas por una ubicua cámara que le sigue durante el día. Irónico y desordenado, diluye rápidamente las líneas que dividen la ficción y la realidad para convertir al protagonista en un personaje que se encarna a sí mismo.
Una particular familia de médicos son los protagonistas de ’Out of Practice’. Ben Barnes (Christopher Gorham, ’Medical Investigation’) encarna a un consejero matrimonial muy concienzudo, pero cuya familia no considera como un "médico de verdad" debido a la especialidad profesional que ha escogido y que todos rechazan. El resto de los miembros de la familia sí que son "médicos de verdad": el hermano de Ben, Oliver (Ty Burrell, ’In Good Company’) es un cirujano plástico atractivo y egocéntrico que disfruta “ligando” con las mujeres más guapas de la ciudad, algunas de las cuales él mismo ayudó a retocar y su hermana Regina (Paula Marshall, El gafe) es una adicta al trabajo que vive pendiente de las urgencias de un gran hospital. Sus padres, (Henry Winkler, "Scream: Vigila quien llama" y Stockard Channing, ’El ala oeste de la Casa Blanca’) médicos también, están separados y discuten cada vez que se ven. En el fondo tiene que ser siempre Ben el que ponga un poco de orden y cordura a las situaciones que se generan. Los creadores de Frasier han logrado en esta producción de la CBS reunir a más de 12 millones de espectadores de media.

un regalo de Mojave 3
Aquí hay algunas noticias más sobre el disco (y la canción) en cuestión extraidas de http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/ - It’s the first Mojave 3 long-player recorded entirely in Halstead’s own studio, located in Cornwall, England, and brace yourself: in the man’s own words, it’s "poppier".
"These songs are quite immediate," Halstead mused. "It was a fun process, doing things that are a bit faster. Hopefully it won’t put off any Mojave fans."
- the band enlisted one Victor Van Vugt to mix Puzzles Like You. Triple V has produced records by Nick Cave, Beth Orton, and Luna, and mixed PJ Harvey’s Mercury Prize-winning Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea.
- mojave3online.com, where Halstead has posted an unmixed version of "Big Star Baby". The breezy number features Halstead crooning choice lyrics like, "Everyone I’ve ever loved / Has been some kind of fuck-up." Totally heartfelt, we kid you not.
- a Slowdive reunion? Unlikely, he said. While not against the idea, Halstead claimed he has a full platter of present interests and wonders if Slowdive are relevant enough to even warrant a reunion. Besides, "I think we sold our pedals, anyway." For shame!
