Ko-ni-či-ua! Pol ure japonskega rokenrola s: TOE, BUTCH, NINE DAYS WONDER, NANOMACHINE, ENVY, THERE IS A LIGHT THAT NEVER GOES OUT, MINORITYBLUESBAND in FUGÜE. Zatem poslušamo skupino BATS & MICE
(bivši Sleepytime Trio, Lovitt Records) in na koncu koncertne napovedi za julij in avgust, kjer je videti, da se letos poleti sezona sploh ne bo končala, ampak vsi zimski klubarji svoje dogodke enostavno selijo na prosto. Slava jim!
PROSTI PAD – Epizoda XIII – 1. julij 2003
JAPANCI
Na Japonskem je trenutno kup bendov, ki igrajo melodičen in igriv hardkor, med njimi recimo TOE, BUTCH, NINE DAYS WONDER, ENVY, NANOMACHINE, THERE IS A LIGHT THAT NEVER GOES OUT, MINORITYBLUESBAND in pa 1000 TRAVELS OF JAWAHARLAL, ki smo jih predstavljali že pred mesecem dni. Na drugi strani je veliko ‘new school’ bendov, ki vsi po vrsti zvenijo precej metalsko in se spogledujejo s tistim nojzom, ki ga je Neurosis zelo težko odtujiti, sploh na način, ki bi Neurosis nadgradil ali presegel. Jebiga. Začeli bomo s takim bendom:
FUGÜE so letos izdali split CD skupaj s francozi OVERMARS na založbi Waiting For An Angel (Our Dreams Walking Their Way #3), ki ima na svoji distribuciji tudi večino japonskih zasedb, ki jih bomo poslušali v oddaji. Komad Mistral.
FUGÜE: Mistral
ENVY so izdali že tri plate, zadnja izide ta mesec na Sonzai Records, z naslovom A Dead Sinking Story. Nekje med Mogwai in Monochrome in kričečim hitrim emom. Poslušamo komad iz split CD-ja s francozi ISCARIOTE, tudi izdanega za Waiting For An Angel kot prvega v seriji split izdaj, ki imajo vse isti naslov: Our Dreams Walking Their Way.
ENVY: Each One Of Your Steps
1000 TRAVELS OF JAWAHARLAL smo poslušali že pred mesecem dni, tokrat pa z njihovega split albuma na Imomushi Records (iz Fukoke) z MINORITYBLUESBAND poslušamo slednje melodične japance, ki jih gre pohvaliti, ker so se potrudili in besedila prevedli v angleščino, tako da lahko napovemo naslednji komad kot Antiheroic.
MINORITYBLUESBAND: Antiheroic
TOE je razigrana, instrumentalna zasedba, ki morda spominja na Don Caballero, le da jim je bolj kot zapletena ritmična struktura pomembna spevnost… S plošče Songs, Ideas We Forgot z založbe Catune poslušamo komad Leave World.
TOE: Leave World
Med bolj zanimive Japonske bende spada elektronski duet NANOMACHINE, ki bi se jim dalo umestit nekam med Trans AM, Godspeed You! itd. in Mogwai… Tudi ta duo je na založbi Catune, ki ima za razliko od Imomushi ali tudi Sonzai Records malce bolj na široko razprta ušesa. S plošče YCX + 3 poslušamo komad YCX 006.
NANOMACHINE: JCX006
NINE DAYS WONDER imajo za sabo tudi že kar nekaj izdaj, zadnja plata With Euphoria je v primerjavi s prejšnjimi precej bolj pop orientirana, mene pa spominja na ritmiko trenutno vse bolj popularnega New York rokenrol sounda, ki so ga v hardkor krogih popularizirali The International Noise Conspiracy, širi pa se kot nekakšna nova retro moda.
NINE DAYS WONDER: Colorcollapse
Za konec te kratke predstavitve japanskih zased bomo poslušaliu še dva benda – BUTCH in pa bend THERE IS A LIGHT THAT NEVER GOES OUT. Prvi so očitno naročal muziko iz Washinton DC-ja, drugi pa so morda poslušali in noreli na Shotmaker in 400 Years. Treba bo na Japonsko, v vsakem primeru, ker je očitno scena precej močna, vsaj sodeč po številnih internetnih straneh, ki vs epo vrsti najavljajo kar lep oštevilo koncertov, klubov, izdaj, založb…
BUTCH: Vibrate Little By Little
THERE IS A LIGHT THAT NEVER GOES OUT: This Flavor
Fresh fruits from The Netherlands: OrwellNation and Kriegstanz from Holland can be placed somewhere between Larm, SeeinRed,... and both share a bassplayer/vocalist with the last. OrwellNation has the more metallic deal of the two, while Kriegstanz is more like your classic fast-forward fuck-it-up punk, but with a will of its own. Musical intermezzo: OrwellNation's SONG NR. 2.
ORWELLNATION: Song NR. 2
We were listening to OrwellNation, the band that has 6 members, played 6 shows and now also recorded 6 songs. Lyric-wise you know what to expect if you're familiar with the likes of SeeinRed or Larm, if not, i could abuse the occasion to quote myself from a previous Prosti Pad edition... fortunately i misplaced the text somewhere.Kriegstanz is about to jump into the recordingstudio this month, for the not yet planned release of mayhem. A preview is this recording from their rehearsal-room:
KRIEGSTANZ : yet untitled
Richmond, Virginia... what does that tell, besides tobacco and maybe railtrack-maps? For frequent listeners of this show, the bands FourHundredYears and SleepyTimeTrio should ring a bell, more so since 400YEARS would probably score high in the ProstiPad team's top 10 of all time favourites. To freshen up the memory, here is 400Years with »Thicker than water«
FOURHUNDREDYEARS : Thickerthanwater
Two members of 400Years teamed up with SleepyTimeTrio, ---and if you like to keep track, members of Milemarker, Maximilian Colby (and a bunch more) and delivered their first full-lenght, entitled »Believe it Mammals«, which was released throught Lovitt-records in 2002.
BATS & MICE: A safe Bet
Bats & Mice tends to leave behind the explosive excursions of their earlier bands to focus on instrumental interplay, where the determined drums and guitars provide the ideal compliment for the haunting warmth of the interlaced vocals. This is Bats&Mice with »This can become completely all the same«.
BATS & MICE: All the same
The future for Bats&Mice looks bright, despite the countless other projects band members tend to move in and out of. A steady approach to songwriting, working on a new record and possibly extensive touring. Sounds like The Queens of the hardcore scene, or what?
Another band with some future is REPLY. Based in Belgium and rocking since 1996, only exam-periods to slow them down. Up till now, they released two full/lengths: «Nine Batteries To Fuel Our Dying Teenage Love Affaire« and »A Trail Of...«. Reply is non/stop on their private quest for an aggressive mixture of chaos and... eh structure. In August they-ll record their third album, but in the meantime, here-s the Unmastered and Unmixed, the one-minute-song »From the Gutter to the Gutter«
REPLY: From the Gutter
