Everything
is average nowadays, I heard it (on rotation) on the radio so it must be
true. Everyone is sitting on the fence, well that’s what those Kaiser Chiefs
are telling us on mind numbing happy-clappy aren’t I the jolly DJ so wacky
and cooler than you ‘cause I went to a great Maximo Fallout Monkeys aftershow
party last night daytime XFM wireless right now. More kettle and black
and pot and no, not everything is average you Kaisers - well it may be
in your world but not in ours. Not everyone is sitting on the fence and
there’s so so much to believe in. So much out there, if you take the time
and make the effort to look, not everything is going down the pan, not
everyone is following the craze, not everyone will settle for Kaiser Chief
averageness of daytime XFM, not everyone is happy to drown in their average
sound
however much it may be marketed down our throats. Average will not do and
not all of us have undergone some kind of multiplex livestock spiritual
liposuction operation. Those Kaisers are so damn bland they probably poo
boiled eggs. Oh look, I promised the angry mob of Mogwai fans frothing
at the door that I wouldn’t rant again this week and now those damn Kaiser
Chiefs with all the charm of a bit of old flannel hanging off a bush have
come on the radio and made me go back on my word (and get all screen burnt),
never mind the Kaisers, here are this week’s signposts, here’s what’s been
getting us off that fence this week...
Never mind the fence, did
we mention George Tabb recently? No? Click on his photo there, the
one above, man in orange, see what's going in in his life right now. George
just put up a thought provoking blog,
those of you familiar with his Maximum Rock N' Roll column will be pleased
to see it.

keyboards), Gerald Casale (vocals, bass) and Josh Freese (drums). |
THINGS TO GET SHOUTING ABOUT? |
“THE
FIRST ORIGINAL SILENCE - A monster is born, a clash of the the titans!
Original Silence is the new band of: Thurston Moore (Sonic Youth), Terrie
Ex (The Ex), Jim O`Rourke, Mats Gustafsson (The Thing), Paal Nilssen-Love
(The Thing, Atomic), Massimo Pupillo (Zu). The album will be released
in April worldwide on Smalltown Superjazzz. The band was put together by
Mats Gustafsson, known from his work with Sonic Youth, Peter Brotzman,
David Grubbs and groups like Diskaholics Anonymous Trio and The Thing among
others. The recordings on this album was recorded live on the Original
Silence Italian tour, the 30th of September 2005 in Teatro Arisoto,
Reggio Emilia, Italy, to be more specific. This is the first in a
series of recordings from Original Silence. There is obviously lots of
early Sonic Youth, The Ex and Scandinavia free-jazz in this album. But
you can also hear their many influences from Black Flag, to drone rock,
to Albert Ayler, to Boredoms, to noise, punk, Dead C, Merzbow, 1960s
minimalism and The Stooges et al. In other words everything we love, all
mixed together! This is 100% improvised rock. A spontaneous, monumental,
raw and harshly beautiful out-rock masterpiece!” so said a Smalltown Superjazzz
spokesperson
We’ve been playing
tracks from the album on Resonance FM already, review of the album next
week, the thing is every good as the press release threatens... Go investigate

ATHEY is without question an exhortation, an inspiration, he is also
a conduit. He says he is programmed to carry a message. The message itself
is not programmed within, he is a vehicle for the channeling of a message.
Is
it still possible to use your body to make an artistic statement in these
alternative times we live in? Is it possible to throw it right out there
and ask questions? To “break free from the shackles placed upon the individual
by society, family, religion and gender (to quote his own biog) through
the catharsis of performance, and ritual, to be able to lay to rest the
demons who’ve sent us in search of the respite only a knife or a needle
could at one time provide” - Marcia X goes in search of answers,

ORGAN TV is on your screens

on the OPEN ACCESS 2 Channel on SKY
173. And now due to the
fine response, repeated every Sunday on SKY 883 at 11.15pm.

just good music, and the art of good video making... Same musical
policy as we've always had with Organ - the labels are just handy signposts,
as long as the music and video making has that X factor - expect a healthy
eye/earboiling mix of metal, punk, prog, beats, post rock, post punk, post
man pat, hardcore, indie, alternative, pronk, whatever..... music and creativity
for the open minded

DEMO TIME |
Like
we already said - we shall no longer be reviewing a million demos,
we're just going to tell you about the very very best once a week, no more
time for the average, only the most exciting - we're very very selective,
when we tell you it's goood then it really is goooooooood
DEMO
OF THE WEEK
LAST
DAYS OF LORCA – Militia - Now we really wanted this to be good, the packaging
was so warm and inviting, it surely must be good? No one’s going to go
all the effort of an inviting handmade warmly-crafted block-printed cover
like that and then just put any old poop inside are they? No they’re not,
Last Days of Lorca are from Chichester and they kind of sound like it,
these are the refined restrained early moves of an English band who might
just evolve in to something rather good. Mellow, warm, vibrant, kind of
Radiohead flavoured and post-rock inclined - yeah, I know calling
everyone who hints at clever structure and a Radiohead flavour a post-rock
band is very lazy of us but hey, you know what we mean, as we keep on saying,
these are just signposts to point to in the way to good music with mere
words. Four fine tracks that hint at Radiohead, 65Days (without the glitch),
GodspeedY!BE, Silver Mt Zion and with the start of I Am Rat, a hint
of Zag And The Coloured Beads (that’s the second time we’ve got to name
drop them this week, things must good). There’s clearly a lot of ambition
here, a desire to be a little different, four impressively detailed tracks
for you Radiohead fans who like it epic – we look forward to more, we like
this lots. www.myspace.com/lastdaysoflorca
DEMO
OF THE WEEK 2
THE
DEFILED – Bruised up brutal pussboiled metalcore, electronic detail and
yeah, they tick all the right metalcore boxes. Okay so it isn’t cool to
talk of nu-metal or metalcore or whatever the hell it may be called now,
who gives a flying yellow teapot about what’s in and out and cool or not
cool. The Defiled have a little extra quality, an abrasive confrontational
edge, put them up there punching their weight and demand more. Bands like
The Defiled and I-DEF-I are out there and thing as looking as good as ever
in the UK metal corner – brutal, demanding, melodic when needed, violent
when necessary, nice juicy detail – heads down, horns in the air, lock
and load, go get defiled. Reecomended metal – www.thedefiled.net

ALBUMS WE’RE LISTENING TO THIS WEEK |
This
week we’ve been listening to...
ALBUM
OF THE WEEK
MICHAEL
J SHEEHY - Ghost On The Motorway (Red Eye) – It will enter your ear
like honey to your heart, rolling in right there with that I didn't do
it grin and the big fat rain drops, right at the start – Break In The Clouds
- he knows how to open an album as he prepares to pour out his tales
and get away with it all in that butter wouldn’t melt way of his, pouring
out hopeless barefoot tales (who knows where he left his shoes this time)
waiting for that never coming break in the clouds as he tries to cover
whatever his shame is this time. Time to hit the road again, get away from
the sons of bitches (whoever they are this week). You always feel like
you need to wash your hands when you’ve drenched yourself in a Michael
J Sheedy album – his melancholic bitter sweet delicate refrains (laced
with tails of girls with arms shot through with chemicals) have you heading
for the bathroom and ripping up your carpets on the way and oh look, I
sometimes think we need to really go way over the top to make you take
note – go and get this album! Just go right out and get! We’re talking
right up there with Johnny Cash and Nick Cave, (we really are, we are not
going over the top here!) we’re talking alt.country blues and the darkside
of singer/songwriter downbeat bluegrass and beautifully mellow refined
restrained guilt-ridden string-driven gospel of the finest finest order.
And you know when he sings that he woke up this morning the next line isn’t
going to be about seeing no sun or hearing no birds and all being well
in his world – yeap, I was right, next line was about puking up blood and
crawling back to church rosary in hand, lord of mercy, strike up the band.
Drenched in that catholic gilt of his via a hundred cities and a million
bars (and fights) and all the dirt in all the gutters, cut heads and bruised
eyes from the night before (no idea why or where). It was always going
to be sordidly interesting, the tales of Michael J once he was let loose
on the motorways and interstate highways and all the bars of the cities
of the world. Still very much that slightly Irish flavoured London thing
but this is finest malt alt.Americana and country blues now. Oh hang on,
there’s a reworking of Company Man here with those white rats in the snow,
a song that originally emerged via Michael’s brilliantly raw band Saint
Silas Intercession. Look, one of the albums of the year has just dropped
here, he’s always been able to do it, whether it be the previous solo albums
or his work with Saint Silas or Dream City Film Club, no pulling up no
plastic sheet or tagging no toe here, raising a single finger to the company
man – this is a beautiful album, a breath stopping album, a fragile, delicate,
quiet mellow weary album, and when he tells you he got disembowelled by
a US Marine in New Orleans you damn well believe he did – I don’t think
I’ve ever seen Michael J with a bruise or a cut or a split lip, and you
know well he almost certainly had it all coming to him. The title track
and the siren calls really has you lost on that central reservation, Curse
The Day is special, the whole album is something very very special, Song
For Davy is beautifully sad and celebratory. There he is, standing all
along again, without a pot to piss in, throat as dry as a bone, it isn’t
mid day yet and he’s got me reaching up there for the bottle.- ah look,
delicate, quiet, refined, battered and broken, melancholic tales of life
and demons and the wives of US Marines (see told you he had it coming to
him) and Michael J Sheehy has made about half a dozen albums now,
they’re all really rather good and you need them all - this is by far the
best to date, just go get it, step in to the strip joint, descend in to
hell, then get right on up again and crawl to church, the one with the
bar in the corner. Hell, he probably did try to burn the church down, he’s
probably still paying for it, he don’t need no doctor, he needs your brotherly
love and you really really really do need this album a lot more than you
need any absolution, was that over the top enough for you? Have we ever
let you down? Album of the year, breathtaking... . more

ALSO
CHECK OUT
THIS
FAMILIAR SMILE – What Kind Of Monster Am I? (Lockjaw) - Oh this band are
annoying, they’re potentially very fine indeed and they’re already really
rather good, some of the things they do are excellent. Thing is they’ve
got one of those dreadfully cliched, almost slapable, whinny emo-voiced
I-so-so-want-to-be-American type singers (they’re actually from Scotland).
He’s not a bad singer, he just doesn’t seem to believe in his obvious ability
and those lyrics are, on the whole, dreadful to a point of almost being
embarrassingly unlistenable – thing is singer boy does have a an inspired
lyrical moment or two, if he’s just have the guts to stop wanting to sound
like all his whinny emo heroes and if only he’s just stop with all the
wet subject matter and the bucketload of dreadful emo cliches – he
actually sings about somebody being “so scene” at one point (kettle, black...),
he really does sound like he’s swallowed some dreadful teach yourself how
to sing emo book, and just when you can take no more and you’re reaching
for the eject button, a rusty saw to take the top of your head off and
a blunt spoon scrape away your brain and erase the memory they hit out
with another gloriously complex (not too complex) riff and another beautifully
refined instrumental passage. There he goes again, pass the baseball
bat. Musically This Familiar Smile are cleverly complex without ever getting
too po-faced and pretentious about it - cohesive and melodic, breezy irregular
other-rock timings, fine ear-demanding hints of Red Animal War, At The
Drive In and the better Deep Elm bands of a few years ago, pushing towards
the glories of Zag And The Coloured beads (yes potentially that good),
oh but there go those emo-boy vocals again, they’d be a fine fine band
if only they weren’t so cliched and “scene kid” – wonder what their next
release will be like, might just be rather good if they find the courage
to throw out the cliches - www.myspace.com/thisfamiliarsmile
or www.lockjawrecords.co.uk
TWO
COW GARAGE – Three (Sonic) – gravelly whisky-throated alternative American
Rock N Roll with a bit of a Wildhearts play Jason & The Scorchers alt.country
edge – hints of a Springsteen, that and The Stones and a million scruffy
Mid West barrooms and all backed up with some rather strong songs, if it
sounds like your thing then really rather good - www.twocowgarage.com
/ www.sonic.nl
ANGEL
HOUSE – World On Fire (Casket) - Some kind of old school hard rock
throwback to the days of UFO, or maybe long forgotten Eighties melodic
hard rock/metal bands like Tobruk or Heavy Pettin’, the harder side of
Magnum. Well produced (by Mark Stuart of said obvious influence Magnum),
slick, politely paced, they do their rather unremarkable chosen thing well
enough – www.angel-house.co.uk
STEAKKNIFE
– Parallel Universe Of The Dead (Boss Tuneage) – Ahhhhh, a fresh blast
after a morning of mundane music, why do so many very very average bands
and tedious labels insist of sending us their musical poop? Don’t they
know we have standards? Bullshit and bad attitude everywhere. Thankfully
there are antidotes. Steakknife are German, a punk rock dinosaur from Saarbruken
so they say – they’ve done time in a number of bands we don’t have the
time to list right now, this is their fourth album, that’s enough facts
– hey I got things to do people to shout at. Fast aggressive rewarding
melodic punk rock, clever when it needs to be, played with spiky passion
and delivered with X factor and a slice of jerky new wave here and there,
singer man sounds like Jello right now – frontman Lee Hollis – he of the
spoken word performance, writer and Spermbird singer – see bit of a Jello.
I like this, I like the spirit, the energy, the spot on production, the
black humour, the extra layers and the dimension – fourteen fine songs
that have just walked in and save the day just as we were getting set to
kick out at the pricks again, no more staring at walls and making people
hate and I don’t want to Be the president and nice artwork tooooo, we’re
here to burn or something like that, its never too late to make things
work, don’t forget to stand when you’re making a stand, who the hell’s
been eating the brains of your next of kin – www.bosstuneage.com

Cutting
The Mustard - Another week, another social centre under threat. After last
months violent eviction of the Ungdomshuset in Copenhagen (see SchNEWS
579) to benefit a right wing, racist bunch of Christian nut jobs, now is
the turn of Les Tanneries in Dijon, France. Built on the site of an old
slaughterhouse and tannery, 'Espace autogéré des Tanneries'
or 'The Tanneries autonomous space' has been around for 10 years, and was
given a non-eviction agreement from the city council 2002 after years of
fighting for a free, autonomous space in the city. Despite this agreement
the "socialist" council have started negotiations - without public consultation
- to sell off the land to Générale de Santé, Europe’s
largest private healthcare provider who last year made a cool £1.18
billion in profit, and are 10% owned by the transnational Vivendi. Les
Tanneries - a centre with cinema, library, housing collective, squatters
help desk and more - is one of a number of squats and free spaces under
threat in Dijon with an alternative theatre and housing collective also
under fire from the council's neo-liberal "progress". For updates see http://squat.net/tanneries/
Two
squats in Rennes, France were forcibly evicted on Wednesday by taser and
stun grenade wielding riot cops. The properties have been sold off by the
council for the obligatory dodgy development, the deal for which, quelle
surprise, was conducted behind the scenes. After the inhabitants were kicked
out workmen moved in to remove all doors and windows to prevent the buildings
being squatted again. |

SINGLES |
So
we have three singles of the week this week, so what? We had a good week
for singles and we don't mean on no hornymatch dot com either... Nah, hang
on that was the other week, we just forgot to remove that bit about the
three singles and what with the insects and the ducks and the bad demo
experiences and
SINGLE
OF THE WEEK
65DAYSOFSTATIC
– Don’t Go Down To Sorrow (Monotreme) – Pretty much everything we said
about the album last week – what 65 have done with this new batch of recordings
is make new 65 music that sounds like 65 and at the same time manage
to progress in just the right way, go read last week’s album
review – basically 65 have done it. (and yes, they’re right, the major
cities of this world are being destroyed one by one by the monsters)
ALSO
CHECK OUT
THE
SAM I AM – Your Conscience Is Mine (Senf) A maelstrom of indie pop and
a female fronted wall of noise, frenetic and throbbing tuneful melody,
kind of like if the Gossip had been born in Southend and had a guitarist
called Daryl Tattoo. – www.myspace.com/thesamiammusic
REBUS
– This City (Josaka) – One of those Bloc Party type Franz type indie type
things, they cover Girls of Film as the last of three tracks, they must
have mailed us a thousand times about in the last few month (alright maybe
five or six times then), pretty unremarkable cover VERSION, I guess if
you like Bloc Ferdinand, there's the link, hit it if you feel like it –

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.
