Declare independence, don’t let them do that to you
Declare independence, don’t let them do that to you, declare independence, I’m sure I was somewhere and something mattered, who cares? This is the battle of who could care less, welcome to the latest edition of My Dead Organ, each peach das wunderlust Each to their own and to hell with the prices This is Organ number whatever number, 26 feet from something or other, who the f ate my chocolate, cool for cats and giraffes and diolch for nothing. Thanks for the fuel that is Ourlives work ethic, they apparently arrived safely back home to Iceland on Monday evening after their very successful 19 day UK tour and guess what!? What did they do as soon ass they landed? They got off the plane and booked a gig! Yeap, they immediately set about their on going mission. A last minute show has confirmed for tonight at Dillon (well it was tonight when I wrote this) so anybody in downtown Reykjavik this evening should get up/over/down there and celebrate the boys’ homecoming – they’ll have copies of the single with them. More studio work is also taking place almost immediately and a new track 'My History Tell Me...'should be ready any moment now. The band managed to spend nineteen days in the UK, everyone of them either playing or recording, day off? What’s that, some days they’d just head straight from the gig to the nearest studio (god knows how they even knew about the nearest studio, they did though), work all night then hit the road to the next show – these boys do not sleep! We do, but hey we’re at work over here booking more UK dates and European festival shows. The debut single hits the shops on May 28th, limited to 1000 as all ORG-AN-ISED SERIES SINGLES are, selling fast via mail order, I get the feeling this one is going to be changing hands for silly money very soon. Second single coming up mid summer, details and such soon, lots of doors being opened right now... This is so refreshing after a thousand lazy British bands who sit on their butts thinking, hey we made a demo now the world owes us a living, oh hell no one signed us, and we’re not happening as quickly as those Arctic Monkeys, we’ll sit at home and sulk or moan about not being paid enough or that our plectrums aren’t the right colour... How much do you want to be in a band? Declare independence...
IS THIS WHY YOU BOOKMARKED ME?

JARVIS metal up your arse COCKER ANNOUNCES MELTDOWN ACTS - Jarvis Cocker has announced that Iggy & the Stooges, Motorhead, the Jesus and Mary Chain and The 13th Floor Elevators are amongst the acts set to perform at Meltdown this summer. As previously reported, Cocker is curating this year's event, which takes place on London's South Bank in June and has previously been curated by the likes of Patti Smith, Morrissey, David Bowie and John Peel. Tickets go on sale at 9am on Thursday. Speaking about the event, the former pulp frontman told The Observer: "It's pretty amazing to be able to programme a whole week like this, to get some of your heroes on and get to meet those people as well. Obviously it's a slight ego trip for me. I'm very proud to be able to present it, but I don't want it to just be all me, me, me; 'This is what I like'. I really want to find ways of getting the audience as involved as I possibly can".

"Some of it is my favourite things, or things that have had a formative effect on me. At the moment I'm interested in quite loud things. Meltdown starts off with Motorhead, something people probably wouldn't associate with me. The first concert I ever played with Pulp was in Rotherham in July 1980. We didn't have many songs of our own so we covered a Motorhead cover version of a Motown song called 'Leaving Here'".

THINGS TO GET SHOUTING  ABOUT? 
more news to follow....................

On a slightly different note, any of you that have ever been to see bands at the Spitz (East London) will be concerned to hear that the venue is now under serious threat of closure. More info at http://spitz.co.uk/

HERE'S WHAT THE SPITZ SAY - 

“Hope all is well with you. After a couple of weeks of speculation and rumour regarding The Spitz's future we're now in a position to make a statement as set out in the press release below. 

The Spitz has been given six months notice to quit our present site in Old Spitalfields Market by our landlord Ballymore Properties.  The campaign to Save The Spitz starts now and I'll be touch due course regarding benefits and special events at both The Spitz and other London venues. If you can offer editorial support or help in any other way please call me on the numbers below or reply to this email. 

 The other way to support The Spitz is to use it as much as possible so please don’t forget The Spitz also has a fantastic restaurant and if you bring along a print out of this bit here they’ll give you 10% off lunch between 12 & 2 pm (take me if you want!). Also, all areas of The Spitz are available for hire including the gallery, terrace and restaurant. All ideal spaces for launch nights, talks parties etc.  “We  have an excellent programme of live music in the venue including the current Spitz Festival of Blues and the forthcoming Spitz Festival of Country in August and Spitz Festival of Folk in September. The Spitz Gallery also has a very strong programme including the forthcoming Chernobyl exhibition by Magnum photographer Paul Fusco called? Twenty One Years of Fall Out”.

"Please show your support for The Spitz by voting with your feet.  Pretty soon we'll have nothing but corporate venues and Clear Channel and thier lap-dogs and safe-otion pet bands controling everything" Sean O 

"I am outraged to hear that The Spitz is in danger of closing. In these days of bland, wholesale corporate homogenisation we need truly independent music venues like The Spitz more than ever. If the Spitz closes it will be an absolute disgrace and a sure sign that London is on the way to becoming a glorified shopping mall with a series of unnecessary restaurants and shops that only recognises the power of the City bonus and not the creative force that gave areas like Spitalfields its identity in the first place." Beth Orton, musician, who has played at The Spitz four times.

 ''London is known around the world for its arts and entertainment, which is the reason why so many people come here. It has a strong reputation for a cutting edge and innovative music scene, which is nurtured by having a range of live venues where music can flourish The Spitz is a unique venue which has enhanced the London music scene since it opened. If a classical music venue were under threat, the establishment would rightly be up in arms - Ken Livingstone, Mayor of London. 

"It is outrageous that The Spitz is under threat of closure and I wholeheartedly give my support to the campaign to Save The Spitz. In the last ten years London's cultural and creative axis has shifted from the West to the East and The Spitz is at the heart of this change. I have been to many ground breaking shows at The Spitz that I would never see at a more mainstream venue. The Spitz gives Spitalfields and East London it's creative identity and if it closes this will be lost"  Giles Deacon, UK;s leading fashion designer who is based in East London. 
 
NEED HELP WITH PROMOTION: NYC PUNK ROCK TO SAVE A LIFE SERIES Please copy & repost!!! 

Bulletin from Vanessa, Daughter of Satan – this very SATURDAY MAY 5th in NYC * PUNK ROCK TO SAVE A LIFE SERIES  Yes, that right, “I’m doing more and more benefits to keep our good friend George Tabb alive!!!!!!!!” This next show will be SATURDAY, MAY 5th at Pussycat Lounge in Manhattan  located @ 96 Greenwich St with the Cross Street of Rector Street, (212) 952-9675 For your musical enjoyment, the bands that are playing are: The Nihilistics, Step2Far, Reagan Youth, Dealin With It, Blackout Shoppers, Animale, Distraction. DjBejay will be spinning all of your favorite punk and hard core clas-SICKS!!!!!!! And of course, I will be your hostess of madness for the evening! The doors open @ 8, 1st band at 9!!!! ID REQUIRED!!!!! 21+ ONLY $10 to get in!!!!!!!!! George has had a very hard time since he got sick from 9/11, so come out and help us raise $$$ to keep him alive and see a great show!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” 

You see, if you can’t be bothered with George then there’s no point in Organ and we may as well just ride off on to the sunset and declare it all a waste of time. You see, I feel like we’ve said this so many times now over the last year or so that you’ve kind of glazed over, switch off and become immune, you just fly past, too busy worrying about where you’re going to get your Download ticket from. Thing is George can’t just switch off. What you need to know is George is an old school zine guy, an original punk contributor who’s dedicated most of his life to some sort of alternative way of doing things – living it and doing it rather than just talking it – and now, through no fault of his own, George is (still) in life threatening big trouble – click on his photo there and go and see why – we need to help out our own, all you bands, zine makers and such – you please need to bring attention to George’s situation – there’s more to this underground thing than your band. . 
 

John on the phone......
Earth Crisis play London Islington Academy on June 23, Madball play London Islington Academy on August 12, we mention this because, oh who knows why we mention this.. 

Kick me out, kick me out, like some pariah of something or other, busy busy busier than busy, figihting off hoxton hair cuts one punch at a time - there’s not enough hours in our lives. Ourlives on tour, Spiritwo over here this weekend with her video eye and walking these empty streets, don’t ask us what goes on in her head, and no idea what The Smears are doing this week, something smearing and smeared and messed up by those who mess things up - that’s all ORG Records stuff though, that’s all over there on the ORG Records pages, this side of the Organart operation is not about ORG – get them damn ORG people out of here - this side is about the continues adventures of Organ magazine and the music and associated things that are exciting our eyes, ears, heads, hands and feet this week. That and the continued battle of who could care more and who couldn’t care less, seems some bands don’t seem to care that much about anything much, well about fans and excessive ticket prices and well, thing is there’s always another good band there, you don’t need to let them keep on testing your loyalty, your loyalty most certainly does not demand and you don’t have to go to Download do you? Question isn’t are you paranoid, the question is are you paranoid enough yet? No more bombarding, we’re bombarded by a million monkeys at a million keyboards, whatever happened to those monkeys at typewriters producing the complete works of Shakespeare; now, thanks to the Internet, we know that was never true.

'NEW ALBUMS WE’RE LISTENING TO THIS WEEK
This week we’ve been listening to... 

ALBUM OF THE WEEK
END OF LEVEL BOSS – Inside The Different Engine (Exile On Mainstream) -  Oh now this is the business, this is special! Yes indeed – and as others have already pointed out, the missing link between that all consuming classic heavy-ass prog sound of Voivod and the monster riff building of Kyuss. The English band have been building a rather healthy word of mouth reputation for a little while now, formed by former Hangnail leader Heck Armstrong, this is the follow up to 2005’s debut Prologue, this is a massive massive album. Eight colossal slices of heavy analogue driven hard rock and stoner-edged forward looking progressive adventure for fans of Voivod, Nebula, Mastodon, Meshuggah and the dirty-riffed end of King Crimson. Great big grooving bending riffs. Epic, monstrously massive, warm – so so warm, spot on old school production values, perfect production (caught on tape at Earth Terminal studios, apparently London’s last remaining fully analogue studio). Vital thing is, they’re not just trying to sound like the bands they obviously take a lead from, no, End Of Level Boss bring their own bit of highly creative x factor to the party, they’re right up there with the very very best. Clever, rewarding challenging structures, massive riffs, complex stoner rock of the highest order, this is a massive album, an all consuming riff-demanding monster of a band that has captured these four humanoids and demanded they feed it and feed it and feed it – go feast on those riffs. www.mainstreamrecords.de / www.eolb.com

ALBUM OF THE WEEK 2
RICHARD PINHAS - Metatron (Cuneiform)  - A sensual, tactile and lusciously organic sound, about as far away from the convention of 'cold electronica' as compositions made with moogs, loops, synths and electric guitars can get. Metatron is positively fleshy in its organicness: as much the buzzings of bee wings and pulse of arteries as the hum of electricity, it constantly suggests heat and respiration and life.  In a world full of instrumental electronic music, the peices in Richard Pinhas' new double album have a depth of detail, richness and presence way, way beyond easy, throwing-paint-at-the-wall guitar pedal experiments. You are in the hands of a master.  Superbly multi-layered buzzing, all-enveloping revolving chordal drones wrap you in a warm umm, ebbing and flowing in timeless salt-tank waves.  Elsewhere, that unique hum is propelled by Magma musician Antoine Paganotti on expressive and equally relentless drums.  The process behind this sound - guitar sculpted with many mysterious layers of treatment, the threading-through of FX-filtered synth and who-knows-what - does not impinge on the conciousness of a listener immersed in its room-filling texture.
   And when compared to equivalent artistes - Klaus Shultze, Aphex Twin, Scanner - Metatron oozes such quality that it makes perfect sense to find that Richard Pinhas is an original pioneer of this music, as big in France in the 1970s with his legendary group Heldon as Germany's Tangerine Dream.  The complexity within every one of the tracks on this two-CD album speaks of exploration and experimentation going back years.  Mesmerising, truly trance-inducing pulses of melody and implied rhythmn come embedded in a three-dimensional latticework of sound, an open filigree where deliciously ribcage-rattling bass floats with shimmering treated guitar and synth.  Over the course of this double album Pinhas pushes his metatronic drone/loop evolution into a variety of shapes: delicate, oriental meditation complement guitar-driven space rock; fizzing delta-wave spirals meet repeating folk guitar fragments - often deeply soothing, sometimes with a delicious menacing tension, sometimes aggressive.  It's hard to recall another ambient textural album maintaining such interest and pleasurable listenability right the way through. 
  Below the sonic surface, Pinhas brings a deep connection with philosophy and proper science fiction (ie the mindblowing pre-1977 kind), incorporating spoken word passages from William Burroughs and Philip K Dick in Metatron and previous albums.  A little investigation reveals Richard Pinhas to be one of the seminal artists of the seventies and beyond, influencing krautrock and later industrial, trancd and avant-electronica over three decades.  On a creative surge with recent albums increasingly critically acclaimed, Pinhas' latest is a must for anyone with a love of Faust, Tangerine Dream, Robert Fripp and even a compelling, accessible way in for anyone intrigued by this music.  www.richardpinhas.com / www.cunieform.com

LUDO – And The Crowd Say Yee Ha Ha (Positive Impact) – Ludo will grow on you, they won’t hit you instantly, they won’t reach out and demand your instant attention, they’re the kind of band who kind of seep in under your radar. Been listening to this on and off for weeks now, keep coming back, had it on most of today actually, no desire to take it out of the CD player yet. Ludo are from East London, there’s four of them, the sound is warm alternative rock, post-rock if you will – yeah yeah, I know who doesn’t play post-rock these days! Nothing remarkable different here but hey, if you like bands like Creedle or Shellac or Slint or and warm mellow alternative instrumental passages and Sebadoh style song writing then this five track album is well worth your time – give it time and let it breath though, the quality won’t hit you instantly. I like this lots, didn’t think I was going to at first – www.myspace.com/ludoband or www.positiveimpactrecords.com or www.sumifuka.com

TOR MARROCK – Gothic Romance (Casket) - Some kind of moody goth/death/industrial concept album, an ambitious attempt that’s rather let down by a rather basic shoddy half-arsed production. Kind of hints of home-made tastes of Celtic Frost and Type O and lots of things from back in the demo trading underground early days of death. They’re from Wales, they sound like they could well have something worthy and original sometime soon if they can just take a little time to develop their craft and their quality control - go investigate via www.myspace.com/tommarrock

ATTACK! VIPERS! – The Mirror And The Destroyer (Rat Patrol) – Blistering hardcore metal with a desire to be just a little bit different, to challenge and to peel back your skin and rip you metaphorical throat right out. A band with a pedigree, a band who clearly know their stuff and know how to grab hold of things and push them a little bit more rather than just following the latest moves. Out of Portsmouth with a serious blend of old school hardcore and scathing screaming progressive metal violence. Scathing riffs, relentless onslaughts. They talk of Grade and Drowningman and Pelican and As Friends Rust, they’ve done time in bands like Jets Vs Sharks, Thirst and such  – they know what they’re doing, they know what they’re talking about and they’re well worth your time, money and your bruises, this is good already, it hints of things to come  – www.ratpatrolrecs.com

GUVERNORS OF CALIFORNIA – Pressure Point (Lockjaw) One of them there scratchy, slightly messy energetic balls of indie-emo-punkness, all hyperactive and maybe a little bit too predictable with those attempts to be unpredictable. Still, early days for the Birmingham band and the hints of sharp melodies and edgy riffs suggest they may one day be a band worth your time and mine - www.myspace.com/governorsofcalifornia or www.lockjawrecords.com

FIREWORKS NIGHT – As Fools We Are (Organ Grinder/Kartel) – Sparse simple acoustic songs laced with warmth that lead in to bits of jazz and full-on cabaret crescendos and lots traditional details and smoky jazzy bits and effortlessly strokes... Simple Songs, Bad Seed flavoured, finely detailed with accordions and glockenspiels and violins and lap steel guitars and plaintive songs of beauty and cherry trees grown from stones and all the little insects. Delicate, occasionally raucous, diverse and rather rewarding. www.organgrinderrecords.com

Single time...

SINGLE OF THE WEEK
DAS WANDERLUST – Sunday School (Cool For Cats) – Now then, we’ve gone on about their demos and things and we’ve played them lots of the radio and by now you should all love them lots and lots (and lots) – das wonderful (sorry, that was out of order of me), no way can you hear doorbells when you have this band playing in your house, hang on – yes it was the door, so many bleeps and bells and pointy squelchy bits and let the cat out please. Das Wanderlust are a two piece “wrong pop” band from Middlesborough, they said they were a “wrong pop” band, and that’s not wrong and there is nothing wrong and everything is right and going off and things and squalor once more is alive ok. Okay, pronk has gone all “wrong” (read that as very very right) at the fairground and ghostly apparitions and Cardiacs and Buntychunks and Map and Bis and Ring and wholesome bandy pointy bouncy DIY (DIY in terms of attitude and the beautifully right production) and being forced to go to church when you were little and each peach and little shops around the corner three frantically epileptic and good for you songs and was that the door bell once more? No it was the frantic buzzing and bells and brilliant again (do you think they know where the manhole vandal lives?)  – www.myspace.com/daswanderlust or www.myspace.com/coolforcatsrecords

ALSO CHECK OUT

NOISETTES – Scratch Your Name (Vertigo) - Just what in proging hell’s name is going on here? The darling band of the inkie indie press have turn into Yes! Of course releasing a single that sounds like Seventies Yes is just about the coolest thing any band could do. Never really been bothered either way with their previous releases and their rather insipid English take on things Yeah Yeah Yeah shaped, we rather like this though, all that Season Of The Witchness and hints of Young Heart Attack and those Jon Anderson harmonies and yes they really are going for the one, what wonderous stories and roundabout rides and the parallels we could draw and so unexpectedly good that we had to go check we hadn’t got a mistakenly pressed CD  (you know, Noisettes printed on the label and some long lost obscure prog/hard rock thing from 1973 by some band like The Rattles or Curved Air actually on the disc - yeap this really is Noisettes and yes this is good. Just went back and checked out the other stuff we didn’t bother to review back there, yeap, we were right not to do so, Scratch Your Name is rather fine though – Yes are cool, Noisettes up until now have not been, now they are, at least for this single - we await the triple album, giant gold cape and the over the top Roger Dean artwork - www.thenoisettes.com

DARKWATER – Easy Weakness (Up Next) – Some kind of fem fronted Marilyn Manson dark wave glam stomp of band lead by an alt.model X factor reject fetish fuelled pierced ‘n tattooed Gerdie called Lora. A harder Garbage, a little more straightforward in terms of delivery and song construction than those Pornorphans. Pop for Marilyn Manson fans – www.darkwateruk.com

SOFT HEARTED SCIENTISTS – Light Years To Nothing (My Kung Fu) – Oh this is good - it makes me sad, it makes me happy – warm inviting uplifting folky mandolin flavoured pop. Deliciously restrained, fine vocals, all delicately swirling, melancholic, creamy, dreamy and spacey. Stairway To Heaven delicate and laced with such warm restrained richness and yes a glorious, yet very simple and very delicate, technicolour voyage, soft hearted and so so warm, excellent instrumental version for the second track as well – www.softheartedscientists.com / www.my-kung-fu.com

  THE END BIT...
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.
