WOMEN – Women (Jagjaguwar) – Canada’s Women hint at so many things, they’re delightfully impossible to pin down here on electronic paper in any kind of easy obvious way – good, that’s the way it should be. Their debut album is ten slices of differentness, different things that hint at those slightly lo-fi (experimental more then low budget) ideas played with along the way by those who sail close to the sounds and ideas of The Velvet Underground, Pavement, Swell Maps and all without really sounding like any of them. Women are positively unique, experimental without ever losing sight of the songs or the structures. Recorded over a period of four months in a basement (by Chad VanGaslen) with old ghetto blasters, tape recorders and with all kinds of bits of what sound like ‘broken’ instruments and imaginative percussion. These are pop songs – cleverly structured pop songs put together by different minds and other imaginations. There’s bits of white noise, bits of psychedelia, bits of real prog – progressive art as it were - always accessible though and never ever obvious. Women is a beautiful album, a thrilling album, a light album, a glowing album that’s alive with the art of noise – the experiments are simple, gentle, inviting, nothing difficult or hardboiled. They hits at bits of 60’s experimentalism, West Coast art, East Coast Warhol and always leaving the impression that it was all effortlessly easy, natural and immediately infectious. Women have achieved something rather special here, things this easy and enjoyable really shouldn’t be that obviously different should they? Surely everything has been done already? Light, spacious, uncluttered, rich in texture, buzzing bits of fuzz, static noise, other pop and just a whole other alternative North American breezy enjoyment. Kind of like sitting out on the pavement painting when no one is watching...  A sunny hopeful album, alive with colour and imagination, something you really should explore – www.jagjaguwar.com or www.myspace.com/womenmusic

ALSO CHECK OUT MAEGASHIRA – The Stark Arctic (Spare Change) – This is the f***in’ shit (as someone once said), discontent so pure, it’s gotta be from Jersey (as someone else once said). There’s a monster slab of very very big metal right there in the middle of this mighty hour-long six tracker, a six minute all out assault laced with so much stoner sludge, attitude, spilt beer, distorted feedback, broken guitars and defiant fists in the air goodness – the slab is called Hi From Jersey and it just asserts itself and rips everything you’ve got right up. Big guitars, bigger attitude – Eyehategod, Sleep, High On Fire, Melvins - riffs, screams, torn up vocal-cords, the biggest slice of righteous stoner heavy-as-mud sludge-punk you will have heard in an age and a half – perfect confrontation and in your face stoned-out defiance. It precedes a twenty two minute bare-foot wade through black treacle and broken glass that is the closing track. These people aren’t messing around here, this band are not just another retro stoner band who learnt a few Sabbath riffs and thought that’s all it took, a little more than just another Orange Goblin support band. Hard winds blowing through frozen riffs, avalanches of cathartic blackness, pillars of psychedelic sludge-motion and all with a raw fuck-you we know best edge. And most importantly, just when you think you have them sussed, they throw in a mighty curveball like Baggage Claim/Skin Slip. We get a lot of stoner rock and this and that, most of it pretty much does as you expect it to - goes in, does the job, very nice, thank you very much, another pint of the same please – Maegashira are a hell of a lot more than just another damn stoner rock band, this really is the righteous f***in’ shit – actual proper metal – proper swamping doom and crushing goodness that really does feel like it came from New Jersey – www.myspace.com/maegashira or www.sparechangerecords.com xxxx

DANKO JONES – Never Too Loud (Bad Taste) – Latest album from the Canadian band with the same name as their frontman. Finally out in the UK this week, been out everywhere else from some time now. This fourth album from the three piece is their slickest yet, slick is no bad thing here. Danko Jones have their influences right there on their, bold and bright right there on their sleeves, they’re not trying to pull any wool over anyone’s eyes. This is just classic old school hard rock music, album music - some of it really radio friendly, some of it delivered with a harder edge. The alternative punky bite of earlier times is pretty much gone now, that lack of edge might catch a few out, this time around this is nothing more than unashamed old school hard rock. We’re talking the melodic harmonic hardness of Thin Lizzy’s pioneering days, we’re talking slick AC/DC, late Seventies Kiss, Montrose, Cheap Trick – all supercharged, superslick bold as can be code of the road hard rock music. City Streets is almost a tribute to that classic Thin Lizzy sound, Danko Jones was more than happy to tell us that himself in a recent interview, Code Of The Road itself is street wise road rock, Still In High School is radio friendly bubble gum, Take Me Home is unashamed sunny Californian pop rock, Let’s Get Undressed has a tongue in cheek smile to it, and on it goes, track of track  – yeah sure, some of those words might not be that deep, Danko Jones aren’t hiding anything though, this is (sometimes very radio friendly) hard rock, and beside the occasional line of lyrics, done just right. Sometimes a slice or two of slick crafted radio-freindly hard rock is just what's needed  - www.dankojones.com or www.myspace.com/dankojones x

JACK SHIRT – Silent Beef (Scratch My Back) – Second impressive album from self proclaimed “DIY home recordist/song writer” Jack Shirt (aka Christos Fanaras). A whole bag of songs and tunes and vocals - not too many lyrics though... And how do we pin down the rather beautifully nonchalant somewhat translucent Jack Shirt? Silent Beef is a set of subtly shape-shifting pieces, sometimes sinister, always soothing, transitional invitations to enter some kind of sinister (once you really allow yourself to be pulled in) corner of music that you really hadn’t noticed before. No, that’s wrong, it really isn’t that sinister (is it?). Vocal drones, filmic dips, cheap Casio orchestrations (that really don’t sound that cheap), slightly strange keyboard harmonies that catch the corner of your eye - things that hint at some of those very early Pink Floyd moments that you really don’t want to listen to in the dark. Some of it maybe improvised, some of it may just be rather cleverly mapped out and thoughtfully constructed? Nothing is really that clear or obvious, all it is rather invitingly intriguing (in a come in to this dark room, nothing bad is going to happen kind of way). Curious bits of b-movie tunes that never ever get that awkward or hardboiled - Silent Beef is a rather beautiful mellow relaxing experience, mood music, soundscapes that push slightly different buttons, delicate tunes that really do invite you in. Brushed glokenspiel, delicate acoustics, refined space and so much time to breathe – Ligeti, early Pink Floyd, Captain Beefheart, David Lynch – clocks, electronics, chimes, vocal drones, happy prog nightmares that aren’t really nightmares... www.thejackshirt.com or www.myspace.com/jackshirt FEN – The Malediction Fields (Code 666) – Fen’s creative strength is in their atmosphere and in what would seem to be awkward contradictions that on the face of it do not make for stimulating bedfellows. Almost ambient post-rock, misty fragile beauty, gentle soundscapes, sometimes pin-drop wind-swept acoustic quiet. Quiet that shares space, often the same time and space, with raging black metal fury, nihilistic bleakness touching on despair – a musical journey of quite some depth, anger and beauty, delicate textures, heavy restraint, the esoteric landscapes of their Eastern English Fenlands. It does work, there really is beauty to be found in their cathartic isolation and their churning despair - and yes it is really quite listenable. Kind of extreme black metal Radiohead with lots of (sometime rather delicately beautiful) post-rock if we want to really strip this review down to a basic clear-cut signpost. Rather recommended in a rather bleak and beautiful way – www.myspace.com/fenband LOW BUDGET ORCHESTRA – The Second Best (Low Budget Music) - Pleasant sounding instrumental neo-prog with a bit of an 80’s sounding melodic synth-guitar metal edge to it. A one man band from Finland and not to be confused with the rather large Italian Zappa covers band of the same name.  Instrumental prog of an 80’s nature, layered orchestration, nothing too complex or difficult, touching on AOR actually, that kind of Jump period Eddie Van Halen sound, a hint of Rush or that 80’s synthy 90135 Yes sound, Stevie Vai... His name is Mikko Muranen, he does it pretty well, played with heart and imagination, pleasantly enjoyable should you be in the mood – www.lowbudgetmusic.com x.xxxx

MEN OF UNITUS – Gland Of Hope And Glory (No Lite) – Psychotic noise rock and slashing out at all you have for them to slash and hack at. Slashing until you’re knee deep in the wreckage and the discordant limbs. This then is the scathing debut that England’s mighty Men Of Unitus threatened – they’re released it, there’s no avoiding it, no turning back, no running, no escaping the knee deep violent goodness of it all. Awkward and edgy, screaming bloody discordance, wire-cutting good and nothing left to stew in the bottom of the cup. Here to make very rich men and women of you all, nothing lest to chance, no lottery ticket needed – this is scathing violent left field metallic noise rock steaming right at you just like you want and indeed need it to. Slash, hack, slash, bang and the caving in of every fragile head they could find. Relentless, “a tinnitisual glory” they said. And they are right, only a few will know how to handle it – glorious, there to make you happy and you know it, go grab some, they dropped a scathingly good one... www.myspace.com/menofunitus GRAHAM REYNOLDS AND THE GOLDEN ARM TRIO – Cult Of Colour (Shamrock) -  A score to the ‘groundbreaking’ ballet Cult Of Color: Cult To Color from composer Graham Reynolds and his band The Golden Arm Trio. A weave of dense classical instrumental warmth, his signature big beat experimental jazz and something more avant and progressive – something touching on the musical adventure of John Zorn, Henry Cow, John Adams, Charlie Mingus, Radiohead. Polymath movement, lush orchestration, vibrant wide-ranging cinematic soundscape symphonies and all delivered with such forward looking classical elegance. Darkly avant prog rock to classical klezmer, jazz, and just a hint of an alt.rock undertone or two in a work that really is rather unique and rather recommended. www.grahamreynolds.com

SINGLE OF THE WEEK 2
DENNIS HOPPER CHOPPERS – Smart Ones Always Lose (D Wink) – First single from his forthcoming second album, this first sign suggest he’s going to pull off following that rather fine debut. He is Ben Nichols, a rather refined one man band who really does make it feel a little like riding Dennis Hopper’s Chopper through all that soft focus and sun-flare camera haze. Guitar, high hat, vox organ, bass drum and a 1969 Fender Duel Showman amplifier originally designed for Dick Dale. Refined mellow thoughtful psychedelia is his starting point, that and songs that take you with them down that gentle road – songs that lay down low ‘till all has cleared. Another fine single from the most excellently named Dennis Hopper Choppers – www.myspace.com/dennishopperchoppers

ALSO CHECK OUT
THE WOE BETIDES – Play Dead EP (Songs In The Dark) – Two lost souls so they say, two singer songwriters who up to now say they never quite found a slipper that felt right – Grundy Le Zimbra and Simon Mastrantone. They say grunge was the starting whistle, and yes from what we’ve known of them in the past, that could well be true. Not much evidence of that past to be found here in their rather left field English alt/folk flavoured pop – not as obvious as that makes it sound though, lazy wordsmithery – me not them, they’re far from lazy, and their wordplay far from lazy. Two listens and the quality becomes more than obvious, the two of them found a foil in each other and crafted some rather strong songs together. Songs In The Dark is the label and the name of the club they’ve been running (along with Jeremy Warmsley) in celebration of all that’s good in art, music, poetry and such – feast following feast as it were.  Too much time to look in the mirror, tales of urban gang fights and English boredom, the washing done, the cooker on. Songs that touch on the social commentary and the craft of The Kinks, four strong songs coming up behind you.. Songs of heart. Strong songs. – www.thewoebetides.co.uk or www.myspace.com/thewoebetides

DEVOTCHKA – How It Ends (Anti) – Released again in some kind of X-Box Gears Of War tie-in and all the emotion and desperation of humanities last stand (or something like that). All that fusing of American emotion with those Romani/Greek/Slavic/Bolero strokes and probably just about to be a massive hit now that the TV Gears of War adverts have been using it... and why not indeed – www.devotchka.net

THE SOCIAL – A Call To Arms EP (Divided London) – Well it is all very very Smiths isn’t it? The phrasing, the lyrics, the voice, the 80’s indie guitar... all very very Smiths, a little too much? Yes, probably... www.myspace.com/thesocialuk or www.dividedlondonrecords.co.uk

ALSO CHECK OUT

LITHURGY – An ambitious stew of raw thrashy growly technical metal from Brighton. They’ve been around since 2004, clearly ready to break out now, ready to step up and move on, hampered by budget and low quality recordings right now though – this is very much a raw three track demo and a work in progress situation. Complex, ambitious, touching on areas inhabited by Meshuggah, Devin Townsend, Pantera. Healthy blend of melody, aggression and ambition and like we’ve already said in previous reviews, this band have something potentially decent going on, now if only they could get it recorded in some kind of decent way – www.myspace.com/lithurgy

SUNDAY SCHOOL – This Swan Will Break Your Arm – They point out that they think they’re doing something different, they qualify this by point out the lack of a ‘the’ prefix or a regional accent. I guess that tell you where they’re at and where they’re coming from and yes, if you world in that of The Arctic Monkeys and The Northern voiced Cockney Whatnots then they might have a point. Three middle aged twenty somethings from East/West London, they say they are alive with lethargy, energy, hope, cynicism... oh look, clean cut mid-paced indie-rock, straight ahead guitar sound, none of your angular discordance, all naked and rather stripped down to a minimal – I guess that’s the way they like it, i guess they’re aiming at some kind of moody naked English take on something near Smashing Pumpkins, not really doing much for us, if you're curious then here's the link - www.myspace.com/welovesundayschool
