Favourite new nightmare? In your dreams, there's only one album to be thinking about this week and it ain't covered no rinky dinky artic monkey poop . Where were we? So you woke up blind, no, no time to blackout in no red room this week. We got distracted this week by just one thing, despite the disrespectful people from scream land and the busyness of Ourlives, those boys from Iceland landed at Heathrow this week, that and The Smears smearing things in such a fine way and Rome not being built in a day and most definitely being destroyed in eighteen beautiful minutes. Yes we got distracted this week, only one album to focus on, this is what Organ is about, watch bands go from demo reviews and slots on Organ bills and bites on Organ compilations... The new 65DAYSOFSTATIC album landed here and stopped pretty much everything – is it any good? The review is down there... 

And please do check out what WILLIAM D DRAKE and the ORCHESTRA PIT people are up to this Sunday with RESONANCWE FM
 

IS THIS WHY YOU BOOKMARKED ME?
ORGAN returns to RESONANCE 104.4 FM 

The Organ radio hour, brought to you by Organ magazine, will return to the airwaves via London’s legendary radio station RESONANCE 104.4 FM on Sunday nights from April 8th at 9.30pm as part of the new spring schedule. The Organ show took a winter break after a two year run – we’re back this week – are you ready? 

Resonance 104.4FM goes out on the FM dial all over London and listened to worldwide via www.resonancefm.com

The Organ hour will alternate - one week the Other Rock Show, the following the Organ show with Sean O ...

Sean Organ will be bringing you an eclectic mix of diverse left-field things from all points in between and beyond - the best new releases and demos that are circulating around the underground fanzine channels and landing here in the Organ office, along with news of forthcoming events and general alternative music news and goings on in and around London – punk, prog, post-rock, hip-hop, the more challenging end of metal, alt.rock, country, who knows what..

The Other Rock Show is presented by Marina O, The Other Rock Show is about exploring 'other' time signatures within structures of rock and filtering out the conventions of the 4/4 time easy option in favour of something a little more challenging – Deerhoof, Hella, Cardiacs, 65Daysofstatic, Gentle Giant, Thee More Shallows, Battles...

Expect waves of fresh challenging alternative music each week, the kind you don’t often get on ‘normal’ music radio shows and stations. Expect special guests, expect who knows what... expect to find links and details so you can explore all that you hear on www.organart.com after each show 

Sean O will broadcast on April 8th, Marina’s Other Rock Show on the 15th and then alternative weeks until...

THINGS TO GET SHOUTING  ABOUT? 
Things.... MEGAFORCE SIGNS DEAL WITH PUNK ICONS BAD BRAINS! BEASTIE BOYS' ADAM YAUCH PRODUCES!  New Album "Build A Nation" To Be Released Summer 2007!

New York/London -- April, 2007 – “Megaforce Records is proud to announce it has entered into a worldwide deal with the legendary punk band Bad Brains. The new album will be released worldwide June 2007. Adam Yauch (MCA of the Beastie Boys) produced Build A Nation and it represents the first recording, aside from Beastie Boys recordings, from the Beastie Boys Oscilloscope laboratories and studio. The Bad Brains recently honoured the legendary punk club CBGB closing in late-2006 by performing three shows, which sold-out in record time”. 

"The Brains are one of most powerful and unique bands in the world. They have been a huge influence on me, and it was an honour to work with them on this record," comments Adam
Yauch.

Considered by some to be the "holy grail" of punk rock, the Bad Brains iconic legacy is best defined by their frenetic and legendary live shows. The Bad Brains are one of the definitive American punk groups who garner the same respect as the Sex Pistols, Black Flag, The Clash, and the Ramones. The band brought a new dimension to music by melding punk and reggae into an innovative style that has yet-to-be copied. And with this forthcoming release, the band essentially return to their early roots with a raw, analog-driven chaos. 

"It's such an honour to be working with such an iconic and pioneering band. They are one of the most important and influential bands still working today. And with Adam Yauch producing, it is history in the making," comments co-owner of Megaforce, Robert John. "Adam and Darryl were essential in getting all the original members (HR, Darryl Jenifer, Dr. Know, Earl Hudson) into the studio in NYC to create this magical album. It's organic and powerful." Said a Megaforce spokes person 

 A Bad Brains worldwide tour will commence, including several festival appearances, this summer in conjunction with the album's release.

LEFTLION is a Nottingham based magazine and a week on Friday, that’s the 13th April, you can catch the Left Lion Extravaganza at the Rescue Rooms in Nottingham. On the bill you’ll find Old Basford, THE SMEARS, We Show Up On Radar, Spotlight Kid (members of Bent and Six by Seven), The Elementz, Karizma and DJ Squigley – you can find out lots more here or by hitting the flyer, you’ll also be able to pick up a copy of The Smears new single Bring It On at the gig.

The show is at Joseph Wells, the event starts at 2:30pm and runs all day until 11:00pm. 

What is Ladyfest? Well here’s a quote from the Leeds Ladyfest site - “Ladyfest Leeds 2007 is going to be a week long of arts events taking place in venues across Leeds - all in the of celebrating creativity, diversity and promoting gender equality. It will place from Tuesday 10th to Sunday 15th April 2007. Ladyfest Leeds aims to down the barriers between the art world and those of us who are creative day – we want to celebrate the talents of *all* women”. Ladyfest events have been running all over the world since the turn of the century, there’s a piece that Andy from Linus wrote for Organ in 2002 here. What is Ladyfest? Anything you want it to be

DEMO OF THE WEEK
This week we’ve only been listening to one thing, no real time to listen to demos properly or all those albums there waiting for our attention, this week we only have ears for the 65, normal service return next week (that’s if we have such a thing as normal service).

WARRIOR SOUL - PAST DECAYED, NEXT CENTURY, TIME FOR MORE...

Warrior Soul, one of the most important rock bands of the 90’s are back for another bite. The US band have just hit the UK for a short tour, we sent Chandra Nova off to Nottingham in hot pursuit of leader Kory Clark... Here’s what she came back with...
 

If there was any way I could write this stuff as being about a nineties rock band still doing the biz after 16 years - uplifting, safe, slightly ironic - then please believe me, I would. It would be just so cosy, so nice, so unchallenging. Thing is, Warrior Soul (a band who have been basically pared down to frontman Kory Clarke, and then rebuilt again, rebuilt as good or maybe better than the original) are not about the past. (They actually never were, for all the Doors and Iggy references lazy reviewers threw up time and again, in a desperate effort to have seen it all before.) Warrior Soul, perhaps alone among all the bands that hit our consciousness in the nineties, deserve to wear a big f***-off tee-shirt saying "I Told You So" 

Kory Clarke agreed to an interview before their recent appearance at Nottingham’s Rock City and I was well keen to hear where he thinks we’re at right now. Read on
 

'NEW ALBUMS WE’RE LISTENING TO THIS WEEK
This week we’ve only been listening to one thing, no real time to listen to demos properly or all those albums there waiting for our attention, this week we only have ears for the 65, normal service return next week (that’s if we have such a thing as normal service).

ALBUM OF THE WEEK

65DAYSOFSTATIC – The Destruction Of Small Ideas (Monotreme) – Primer is the track that really takes our ears, Primer is ten tracks in to this much anticipated third album, Primer is the first track that really does grab us and takes us to new highs that we now rightly demand from 65Daysofstatic. Primer is the finest moment of their musical adventure thus far (I almost said career then, this is not a career, how crass of me, there are many career bands out there. 65 are not one of them). You see before Primer we were wondering if 65Days had painted themselves in to a little bit of a corner, things were sounding just a little familiar and very much like... well like 65Daysofstatic, almost comfortably so. And then White Peak/Dark Peak followed Primer with delicate spellbinding glory and a glowing classical warmth that leads us in to the clever challenge of The Conspiracy of Seeds. Were those vocals and violins just then? Real prog, real progression and what a fine way to close an album. And then you go back and wonder how earth Primer was the one to grab, it could have been any one of the first nine tracks, it was really the first notes of When We Were Younger. Sure, the 65days trademarks and fingerprints are all there, how could they not be – this is a sound and a standard for others to aspire to now - but hey no. It may have looked like a corner that they had painted themselves in to but hey no – no, look, look in to that corner and there whole new rooms that you didn’t see first time, must have been a trick of the light. Opening track When We Were Younger is wonderful and the small ideas are really very big ideas and the only destruction was the destruction of the safe instant option that they could so easily have gone for. Sure now and again they hit some kind of 65Days auto pilot and just as you thinking ah they go and jerk and glitch you right out of it – no, not jerk, they never jerk, they ease you out of it with a gentle kick, a glitch and a friendly bite and never in need of a scream – well maybe a silent one, a quiet scream back there in the detail next to the birdsong and the electric crackle and the arc of percussion and the fragile piano and... I almost said sinister, but no, that would be wrong – curious.  Curious like opening dusty boxes in an attic that’s leaking golden sun through the cracks and finding all kinds of forgotten treasure. I was wrong, Primer isn’t the stand out track, there’s just this moment somewhere in the middle of it that’s perfect - that moment just opens the door to such a euphoric rush and the silence at the end of it is for split second like the end of everything - you think there will be no more sound ever again until that reassuring piano note of White Peak and the unbelievable beauty of it all – that note took an eternity to arrive when really it was a second. You know for a while back there I had almost tricked myself in to thinking I was growing a little bored with 65Daysofstatic, I foolishly thought that this would just be another album, these things you can’t unlearn. No, I was wrong, the finest moment is really Lyonesse, oh look, all you need to know is that 65Daysofstatic have made another very very fine album, every bit as fine and rewarding and stimulating as the first two – they never stop grabbing you, sometimes gently, sometimes demanding, every listen brings out another set of details and warm textures and oh look I'm losing all objectivity now and I don’t want to write anymore about it, I just want to listen to it... www.65daysofstatic.com

As always, thanks to SchNEWS for their alternative news bulletins - www.schnews.org.uk
Open message to you bands, labels and anyone else with a blog or a My Space page or a webzine or who are generally out there getting involved in a positive way and spreading the word about fine music and creativity and underground/alternative art that go bump in the night. This is how it works around here; we’re perfectly happy for you to cut and paste our reviews and put them on your band/label pages or where ever you want, please please do go spread the word, that’s what this is about – the spreading of information. We encourage you to do it (unless you’re involved in something that’s a little unsavoury like one bunch of nasty little right wing scumbags we had a run in with a few weeks ago), There’s no ego here, we’re not going to come chasing you about copyright and all that crap. All we ask you to do is credit the material and add links to our pages with anything you want to use. Please feel free to use our words to spread the word, it’s how it works – word word word it’s basic netiquette, it’s weblove and only a massive ego-inflated no-mark would think any other way. Use our words, we take it as a massive compliment – please do add the link though, please tell people where you got it from and cut 'n paste away (like many others have already done), the more people who read about these bands and things the better don’t yer think? It’s the underground way.
