Respondendo de novo ao comentário de nosso caro amigo Jesus Christ Superstar, no post abaixo, taí um exemplo de uma banda, que, na minha opinião nunca se vendeu ao mercado e manteve seu trabalho com a mesma autenticidade do início ao fim, tosco ou não (e isso é o melhor deles). Os caras tão aí há 25 anos, sem vender milhões de cópias, sem estar nos maiores veículos de mídia e penso eu, que será uma daquelas bandas glorificadas depois que encerrarem os serviços. Vão pensar: “não sabia que essa banda era tão boa”.

Esse disco, pqp, é obra prima, perfeito do início ao fim. Considero isso tão bom e tão revolucionário quanto as bandas que o Greco citou, Led, Floyd, etc. São tempos diferentes, meu caro, num faz sentido repetir aquilo tudo que esses caras fizeram. E o Sonic Youth botou  a cara à tapa, pra fazer o que ninguém fazia numa época que só se ouvia Michael Jackson e New kids…….e isso é ducaralho.

About Patti Smith by Steven Sebring, Dream of Life:

By ROBERT KOEHLER
The titular rocker-poet gets a suitable portrait in Steven Sebring’s “Patti Smith: Dream of Life,” which runs radically against the grain of American-made pop music docs. The result of 11 years of filming (much of it in wonderfully grainy black-and-white 16mm), pic is designed as a stream-of-consciousness experience, following Smith as she revives her music career and considers every aspect of her life. Death, too, plays a stark role, and the textured, thoughtful results may prove too cerebral and abstract for auds beyond Smith’s hardcore followers, but long-term, this will be a loss-leader that gains much respect.

What Sebring — a fashion and pop photographer, painter and commercials maker — doesn’t know about doc filmmaking never hurts the film. Starting in 1995, when Smith recorded her comeback album “Gone Again” and toured with her idol, Bob Dylan, after having not performed live for 16 years, Sebring’s project clearly developed as it went along, and the effect of watching the film is seeing something in the making — like rummaging through Smith’s closet, and stumbling across interesting stuff.

In voiceover, Smith briefly sums up her background as the daughter of Chicago parents (Grant and Beverly Smith, both lovingly seen at home) and the cultural child of ’60s art-political foment. At 23, a fledgling and serious poet, she became friends with artist Robert Mapplethorpe and teamed with him for a series of works that belonged to the early phases of performance art. Other encounters (such as with then-hell-raising playwright Sam Shepard) proved crucial, and led her into rock ‘n’ roll.

“Dream of Life” distinctively treat the particulars of her early career in only glancing references, none of them in chronological order, with Smith sometimes seen obliquely. more…

Achei esse disco bem melhor que o Grow Up & Blow Away…….

Spiritualized - Songs in A&E (torrent)

Sipiritualized official website

soul on fire

Musicalmente esse novo álbum do Spiritualized pode ser considerado o mais harmonico de todos, instrumentação suave na maioria das faixas e longe da sinfonia noise de “Ladies and Gentlemen…”de 1997. São 18 faixas divididas por 6 interludios chamados de “Harmony”.
Como falei no inicio Jason Pierce fez esse novo disco durante o tempo que ficou hospitalizado e disse que até as máquinas do hospital emitiam música. Isso fica bem claro na terceira música do disco “Death Take Your Fiddle”, que começa com um respirador artifical e ruidos hospitalares.Mas essa morbidez é quebrada em seguida por “I Gotta Fire” uma experiencia mais country folk/psicodélica meio Dylan meio Van Morrison.
“Soul On Fire” resgata o velho estilo de canções como “Come Together” e “Electricity”.
Vale muito a pena ter esse disco novo do Spiritualized, um disco que pra mim cresce a cada audição. + Kid Vinil

So Young But So Cold

This well-constructed compilation, is significant not only for opening up these sounds to a larger audience but also for putting a definite perspective on a music scene that was all too short.

It is the late Seventies in Europe. The political tensions of the Sixties are now manifest in the extremes of hedonism and direct action. Youth feels alienated once again, this time its worse with constant violence on the television and industrial upheavals at home.

Urban decimation and Postmodernism at its height, further isolating people from their surroundings. European identity has been eradicated in shame and frustration. But something is happening. Punk Rock in the United Kingdom has shown kids all over the world that its easy for them to release music on independent labels. Current technological trends make access to new electronic instruments (ARP and MS10 among others) easy. In France a new youth culture is born. So Young But So Cold illustrates that trend brilliantly.

It begins with the most poppy tunes and gradually goes back in time, as more instruments are added to each song and the experts (mostly influenced by and creating progressive rock) take over. The first half of the disc the instrumentation is sparse, consisting of drum machine or keyboard and vocals primarily. By the end of the disc the tracks get more (analog) synthesizer oriented and denser in construction.

Back to the Burner

The (Hypothetical) Prophets were an ephemeral French coldwave band consisting of duo Bernard Szajner and Karel Beer. The band formed in 1980 and released a series of 12” singles and one full length record before their quick demise.

Despite a short discography, the band’s craft was unique. Singing in both their native tongue as well as English and alternating between male and female vocals, the the dozen or so songs recorded under this name are haunting minimal wave at its finest, a mixture of harsh electronic experimentation and catchy pulses of synth. more: Systems of Romance.blogspot

Metric - Grow Up and Blow Away (2007 Release)

Grow Up and Blow Away was the first recorded album by indie rock band Metric. The album was recorded in 2001, but delayed for years by their record label. As the years passed, the band’s sound changed to the point where they no longer felt the album would be what the fans expected to hear, so Metric recorded a completely new album, Old World Underground, Where Are You Now?, and released that instead. Last Gang Records later purchased the rights to the album and released it on June 26, 2007.From Wikipedia.
