Preto no Branco, 20090221

Sonic Youth will have a new studio album next June. We take this as a catalyzer to get immersed into a flood of electric guitar drones. Or to feel happy again with some acoustic tones. Even if they have to be complemented by some electronics. From Vienna, we have recently discovered an amazing low frequency orchestra. And noticed that people from Raster-Noton will be in Lisbon for the OFFF festival. That will be in May. For the next weekend John Zorn will perform in Porto and Portalegre. Raw material for a double-hour of pure radio.

Iain McKell, "New Gypsies"

"Historically despised the new Gypsies are there by choice, not heritage. Unrelated to the Roma, the movement began in 1986 when a group of Post-Punk Anti-Thatcher protesters headed out of London into the English countryside. McKell followed these New Age Travellers to the West Country and over the years he watched them become a hybrid tribe - the new gypsies - present-day rural anarchists, living the subversive lifestyle in elaborately decorated horse-drawn caravans."

The Clockworks, Mayday Mayday

Mayday Mayday, the latest from The Clockworks, a four-piece Irish post-punk band from Galway, Ireland, now based in London. Formed in 2019, the band consists of James McGregor (vocals and guitar), Sean Connelly (guitar), Damian Greaney (drums), and Tom Freeman (bass).  One of the most exciting new bands in the post-punk scene, a blend of indie rock and garage rock, with driving guitars and catchy melodies, currently working on their debut album. The Clockworks are a young band with a lot of potential, helping to bring Irish rock back to the forefront. Stay tuned!   

New Order - Video 5-8-6 [Extended 22:23 version]

“Video 5 8 6” is a song originally composed as “pap” (as Tony Wilson put it) for the opening night of the Haçienda on May 21, 1982. Parts of this pearl would become the basis for the Power, Corruption & Lies tracks “5 8 6” and “Ultraviolence”, as well as the associated 12-inch single “Blue Monday”.
