Popular Culture No Longer Obliges To Us

Ow yes, last few weeks were quite rock'n'rollish. Jack and D in small toilets, EMI-spokeperon and toe-rags on the front of my Buenaventura. And then last weekend Johny went on a walk.

Don't really know what to tell now. Maybe if I wait long enough, inspiration and wittyness will come to me.

WAITING
...

Ah yes something that caught my eye. Carl "Carlos" Barat of the Libertines is in fact:
OSCAR WILDE.
Picture 1 Carl
Picture 2 Oscar

What else did do. Well al lots of stuff but I'm not in a typing mood. Hope it will come back.

Anyway don't forget to abolish work, kiddos!

Ow yes those things happen

Scoobi doo is on the lose...
Well nowadays thing are bit hectic. I'm planning of turning this blog into a bigger music forum. Perhaps there gonna be some interviews. Aswell. Gonna see about that one. Gonna start a serie of Interviews with Bands just going down the Aplha Beta.... So try to start guessing who are first up...

I get my sounds down south!
The Kings Of Leon 4/10/2004 AB Brussel Box
After the Mooney Suzuki cancelling for no particular reason and hearing DJ Kutt playing the most boring guitar tunes since JonBonJovi last brought out an album, Mr Warhol was finally treated with a dosis of YEHA rock'n'roll.

Mr. Warhol didn't assumed the Kings Of Leon would have change much to last time he saw them at Pukkelpop, maybe that everybody in the band turning into Nick Valensi of the strokes. Anyway after 45 minutes of rock'n'roll à la Southern Version of television Mr. Warhol came to the conclusion that they didn't change much to their Pukkelpop playlist. With an equal amount of old and new songs they conquered the hearts of everyone around. But it wasn't if their were a lot of new fans around, in fact there weren't many fans around aswell. But the Kings Of Leon didn't care, they eve thanked the audience for their better behaviour (Last year was a dude in the audience interruping the show and yes ruining the show for the rest of the audience because the K of L got pissed off. But actually there still was a drunken man in the crowd who tried to climb on stage but mr. Warhol got all his wussie powers together and threw him down. But back to the music. The Kings Of Leon have improved as a band. They might have a wanky start after 3 songs they were good and rolling.
Songs like Calfornia Waiting and Red Morning Light are true hit tunes and sound like a musical journey all the way down to Tenessee, if they could only give the same vibe to the new songs who are basically stronger than the old ones then you can say that they made it as a band but for now it was a nice and wonderfull show but they still have some work to do.

Next stop Wonderland...
Some people are easily upset, some people don't go to shows they should have go to. Like flower Leaf Girl all time fan of Tom Waits but nooooo she didn't go tonight because there was some dude who wanted to have some weird contact with her. What is the prob sex + rock'n'roll no need for drugs then!
ANyway i have been haha funny for long enuf ciao and love is like a crippled sun it is all i need!

Live from the sea

What's on Mr. Warhol his stereo?
DFA#2 Compilation EP
The coolest electro tunes from NYC. LCD Soundsystem, The Rapture and others are making Randy his shiny ass move.

Kings Of Leon - Aha Heartshake break LP
2nd album from the boys out of Tenessee. Expect more Television riffs, but don't you all worry. Caleb still got all the nicest OOOh, AHAHs of the South, partner!

DJ Tripp his Octoberremix disc 2 Download
Forget about 2 Many Dj's DJ Tripp is mashing things up and his lastest cd is the nice proof that the mash genre is bigger than just the two Ghent Brothers.

The Undertones - Teenage Kicks LP
Yer, mr Peel to you we salute!

The Playwrights - Guy Debord Is Really Dead Now EP
2nd EP, sound like Radiohead talking about The (I)NC while Hot Heat Heat is passing by to drop a bass line of. Yes they are the most inovative thing since the invention of the lucifer for your molotovcocktail. Situationism isn't getting groovy with this band. It is getting arty farty but that is a start.

The Codoass /The Hives AB Concert 29/10/2004
The CodoaSS
Yes what if Franz Ferdinand and The Rapture maid? Yes then Codoass would be their love child. Although this sounds good on paper. In real life they get nobody moving at all. And everybody was watching their watch, although they had some good tunes, but not good enough to impress mr. Warhol.

And then The Hives
The Ayatollaha's of rock and roll ass. Start with their punk anthem Abra Cadaver and continueing their blitzkrieg by directly hitting the crowd with Antidote.
Their songs are always perfectly played and yes it is a perfect glued show. Where almost nothing can go wrong. Even if a microphone goes blank in 2 seconds Pelle gets a new one.
Everything with the hives is one big show and their not a ashamed to pull off the best show around. The only negative thing you can say is that everyone has their little role and they never get out of it. But that is just nitt picking compared to the 1hour and a half punk rock adventure they tored us into.
They played everything from their latest album 'Tyrannosaurus Hives' except personal favorite Love In Plaster.
It was a special night for the hives because their was a try-out for their forthcoming DVD. They came back for an encore where they shook everything up for just a last time. A K A I-D-I-O-T yes that is me. And I'm glad to be one.

This just couldn't wait
Yes I've seen the hives and the Kings of Leon reviews will be added shortly.
But to prove my objectivity as a journalist and that I not always flatter persons I know. A review of Zeus Nine.
After reading their oh so heart breaking biography where I could find out that you need a guitarist, a bass player, a singer and a drummer to form a band. (I wonder what Sonic Youth would do if they found about this). But then I listend to their demo. First up Burdens. First reaction: Did cliché became a verb? Second reaction: Does this sound like Incubus shitting on a toilet.Yes I never heard a guitar making the same sound as me after christmas dinner and the singer, yes well let's be honest, he's following the guitarline. Don't even care what the song goes about.
Next: skinned Knee -> same shit different toilet. But now I had time to listen to the lyrics, and indeed somebody should "save me"!

Owk last but not least: Dark Road: The intro is the a-typical modern metal opener yes just like incubus or hoobastank are doing. yes even like Limp Bizikit already makes these openers. Yes and the song is about the something very original a girl that is making his life bad.
Well to end I just would like to say.
YOU go GIRL!
