James Blood Ulmer - Are You Glad To Be In America?
2007-08-27 13:28:00
In 1972, Ornette Coleman took guitarist James Blood Ulmer under his wing and taught Ulmer the principles of harmolodics, a musical system that treats the elements of harmony, rhythm, and melody equally. On Are You Glad to Be in America ?, it drives a series of group improvisations that are simultaneously complex and direct. The sound of Are You Glad? is largely defined by its rhythm section: G.

Art Ensemble of Chicago - Reunion (Live in Rome, 2003)
2007-08-26 11:09:00
Ripped from my own copy This Art Ensemble of Chicago reunion set was recorded in Rome on January 22, 2003. And as we lament the recent passing of bassist Malachi Favors, this affair does suggest a jubilant outlook. Favors and drummer/percussionist Don Moye launch the proceedings with a sparkling percussion motif titled Illinstum. However, saxophonists Roscoe Mitchell and Joseph Jarman partake in

Ulan Bator - Polaire
2007-08-24 15:26:00
This compilation of material of the early Ulan Bator (from the first two studio works of the french band) was compiled for the italian market by the CPI (Consorzio Produttori Indipendenti). It shows the germs of the post-kraut-noise mix that will make Ulan Bator really appreciated in the alternative circuite. Working as Faust and Can on assemblage, they provided one of the most original sound

The Pop Group - Y (Re-up)
2007-08-24 15:20:00
1.When The Pop Group first came onto the scene in late 1978 they were being hailed in the UK press as one of the saviours of rock and roll, and with good reason as the group's music made almost everything being created at the time seem old hat over night. The Pop Group's debut single "She Is Beyond Good and Evil" released in 1979 was an instant classic and one of the landmark recordings of the

The Bongos - Drums along the Hudson
2007-08-23 17:48:00
Emerging from the same mid eighties US alternative scene that spawned the likes of R.E.M., The Replacements, Soul Asylum and the like; Hoboken, New Jersey band The Bongos where a trio who revelled in the same shambolic jangle poppiness. Though never quite reaching the same commercial heights as their contemporaries, The Bongos have enjoyed a certain cult status over the years,

The Sound - Shock of Daylight EP
2007-08-22 20:43:00
All Fall Down was a dark record that resulted in the Sound parting ways with the WEA-distributed Korova. The stark, anti-commercial LP received no form of promotion -- the label even considered not issuing it at all. After its release, the band spent several months away from the music business, feeling drained. Adrian Borland and company even considered stopping permanently. Four years of hard

The Fall - Bend Sinister
2007-08-21 19:06:00
Arguably the peak of Brix Smith-era Fall , the rousing, riff-loaded Bend Sinister stands as one of the band's most rounded and satisfying records. With edgy, bubblegum pop mixing with crepuscular experimentalism, the album finds Mark E. Smith flitting between being playful ("Terry Waite Sez," "Riddler") and disgruntled ("Gross Chapel," "Shoulder Pads," and the fuming hymn of hate to the nanny

Pere Ubu - St. Arkansas
2007-08-20 21:58:00
Press Quotes: "A journey across a blasted landscape of arid loneliness, interupted by moments of surreal humor...an utterly typical piece of witty Ubu absurdity." - Entertainment Weekly, 7/26/02, p.68 "Thomas's reedy, mass murderer vocals remain as unlikely as they are compelling while the spiky, sometimes challenging music is seldom without a groove....In a cultural climate where anger wears

James Blood Ulmer - Tales of Captain Black
2007-08-19 10:54:00
A landmark album of the New York downtown scene -- and one of the most groundbreaking guitar jazz albums of the 70s! James Blood Ulmer plays here with members of Ornette Coleman's group of the time -- including Ornette himself, Denardo Coleman, and Jaamaladeen Tacuma. The style is very similar to that of Ornette's excellent Body Meta album -- a mode that has the rhythms all turned inside

Ghost - Lama Rabi Rabi
2007-08-18 12:27:00
Ghost was born in 1984 by some Tokyo Japan youth. At the beginning they were playing completely experimental improvisation but doing so naturally, as a form of worship. Through the production of the 1st album Ghost, and their second, Second Time Around, their sound has slowly changed to the expression of songwriting. Along the way, they have attracted attention for their fascination with

Unkle - Self Defence
2007-08-16 10:52:00
1. Take a masterpiece like "Never, Never, Land", destroy it in fragments and call widely known producers to re-work it out. This 4cds box-set is more than a simple remixes collection, is the UNKLE's universe explained for you by other alien musicians. A masterpiece. 2. Strategie su strategie. Ti spari per intero il saggio di Tommaso Pincio sugli alieni e cerchi di convincere la tua

Pere Ubu - Why I Hate Women
2007-08-15 09:14:00
At first glance this disc looked like a bad joke. Was Pere Ubu becoming a cover band that performed golden oldies from the past like “Mona” (Bo Diddley), “My Boyfriend’s Back” (the Angels), “Blue Velvet” (Bobby Vinton), and “Love Song” (too many artists too mention)? The first play through made it clear this was not so. The titles might be familiar, but Pere Ubu is in no danger of playing smarmy
