Sic Alps - A Long Way Around To A Shortcut
2008-09-03 18:51:00 Over the past two years, guitarist Mike Donovan and drummer Matthew Hartman have used an old 8-track to document their reverb-drenched hallucinations, producing a relatively steady stream of releases in limited-edition 7″, 12″ and cassette format that have all long been snatched up by eager fans and vinyl-hungry collectors. Scour the internet if you like, ...
Sic Alps
2008-08-28 17:30:00 True to their throwback ?60s sound San Francisco duo Sic Alps have been releasing music on cassette tapes and 7-inches through the label Animal Disguise for the past couple of years. And although their recent full-length, U.S. EZ, is available in the more modern format of compact disc the group still wallows in similiar territory, this time with the Philly-based label Siltbreeze, the same dude who brought us Eat Skull, Times New Viking, and Psychedelic Horseshit. Although music writers must shy away from the industry?s new four-letter-word, ?lo-fi?, Sic Alps use a stripped-down approach normally attributed to said term. Their drums are coated with distortion and their dual vocals emerge through a cloud of hissing four-track fuzz. Even though the band sullies their instruments with fuzzy-psych flavors it?s the tight-knit vocal harmonies that make Sic Alps both palatable and reminiscent of the glory days of ?60s psych-folk. On U.S. EZ Matt Hartman and Mike Donovan give us a moderate...
Sic Alps - U.S. Ez
2008-08-11 23:19:00 On their fourth long-player, the San Franciscan duo of Mike Donovan and Matt Hartman continue to blot the lines between paint-peeled blues, lo-fi experimentation and the noisier end of the acid rock spectrum. Elements of the Brian Jonestown Massacre, without the inherent asshole egotism, and the Who, if Daltrey had some brains and Townsend had ...

Away from the Alps, the uninvited dream
2008-06-08 02:52:00 Now Euro 2008 is in full swing, spare a thought for those not invited to the party.36 European nations failed to make it to the Alps. England might stand out among them, but also missing is 2006 World Cup quarter-finalists Ukraine, plus nations of the calibre of Belgium, Serbia, Denmark, Slovakia, Norway and Ireland.England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland really should have revived the British Championship this summer and for extra spice added the Republic of Ireland and as a wild card, Gibraltar.A friendly with Gibraltar from any of the four UK nations with an empty diary this month would be a nice affirmation of the peninsula's desires to stay British.The Rock is not affiliated to UEFA, thanks to Spain's filibustering, so like an ugly girl or boy, they are desperate for any date. Given that it is customary to play a reciprocal fixture at your visitors' stadium after inviting them to yours, England could easily drop by for 90 minutes, though the apes would probably nick t...

Man Flies Like A Bird Over The Alps With Jet-Propelled Wings.
2008-05-19 21:03:00 Man Flies Like A Bird Over The Alps With Jet-Propelled Wings.Swiss Pilot Yves Rossy became the first man in the world to fly with jet-propelled wings. He demonstrated his talent in Bex, Switzerland, the four jet turbines enabled him to achieve a 186 mph, which is about 65 mph faster than a typical skydiver jumping & he uses only his body to change position in the air. Yves Rossy has spent 5 years training for this & finally he fulfilled his dream. Its said that so far Rossy & his sponsors, which includes a Swiss watch company Hublot, have poured more than $285,000 & many hours of work into building the device. Its to be seen when & how much would this device cost should it ever be brought into market.Watch the "Man Flies Like A Bird Over The Alps With Jet-Propelled Wings" Video on YoutubeSource: 1, 2, 3.Other Posts:Amazing Lizards.The Lego World.

Debian Lenny: new kernel, new problem, plus the best distros for the Alps t
2008-03-29 16:04:00 The Linux kernel is a funny thing. A new kernel should mean increased functionality, but for me and my old-and-getting-older machines, I only seem to lose functionality with upgraded kernels. I hadn't updated Debian Lenny in a while on the $0 Laptop (the Gateway Solo 1450), and when I did it today, I noticed a new kernel being added to the system: 2.6.24-1. I didn't think about the new kernel when I next booted into Lenny, but when I did, I soon discovered that my sound card didn't work anymore. I looked at all the settings, tweaked a bit here and there, but still nothing.

Visit French Alps
2007-10-12 22:37:00 From my own experience I know that it is a lot cheaper to rent an apartment directly from the owner in some nice holiday resort and then travel by plane to a chosen location rather than purchasing a trip that includes everything. Doing everything separately gives you also more freedom while making right choice when it comes to your accommodation, types of meals and flight details.Whenever you fly by plane to your chosen destination you will need a transfer from the airport to a place where you are going to stay. If you have ever thought about French Alps, this is when this airport transfer to your final destination might help you. The whole procedure is very easy. You create an account and a request for transfer that will include your resort, name of the place where you are going to stay, airport information, total number of passengers etc. After ompleting this stage and sending your request you are going to receive directly to your inbox offers from the most competitive operators. ...

new Nine Black Alps and another Princess Diana tribute of sorts and Jackson
2007-09-04 11:18:00 The second single from the second Nine Black Alps album is Bitter End and it's a good one.But their best and poppiest track to date is the third single, Future Wife. It reminds me of when I was first listening to Radio 1 and Mark Goodier was presenting the Evening Session. Which specific band I'm not sure - maybe The Candyskins.Future Wife - Nine Black Alps (album is released on October 22 so not on iTunes yet)There are excerpts from five new Alps album tracks hereThere are four Candyskins tracks here including Wembley (the one I first heard on the Evening Session) and Car Crash, the track that I believe should have broken them after Monday Morning scraped into the top 40. But the label procrastinated and then Princess Diana died in a car crash, making it rather difficult for UK radio to play a song called Car Crash.Wembley - The Candyskins (iTunes)Car Crash - The Candyskins (iTunes)I think Car Crash was probably inspired by Song For Adam from the first Jackson Browne album.

B-Sides: Nine Black Alps
2007-08-24 19:45:00 Last year, before releasing "Everything Is", the Nine Black Alps put out a self-titled EP that caught a lot of peoples attention. Most of the EP later showed up on "Everything Is", the only modification being that "Cosmopolitan" was re-recorded in a different key. However, "Attraction", both the second best song on the EP (the original "Cosmopolitan" being the best) and the song introduced me to the band, was left off the album. It's as good as anything else on the album, but was probably held back because the tone was so different from everything else on the LP. In case you missed the EP, here's "Attraction" on iMeem:
