The Kills - Blood Pressures short film

Една от любимите ми банди The Kills пуснаха наскоро късометражен филм в подкрепа на последния си албум Blood Pressures. В него Алисън и Джейми обясняват как се е стигнало до записването на четвъртия им албум, какво ги е провокирало и вдъхновило да запишат всяка една от песните. Филмът е нещо като интимен разказ за бандата и отношенията им като цяло. Освен това във филма има откъси от акустични изпълнения на някои от песните в албума, по-точно "Pots and Pans", "Baby Says" и "The Last Goodbye". Филмът е продуциран от thirtytwo, стоящи зад номинираният за Грами документален филм за британската банда Blur "No Distance Left To Run".

One of my favorite bands The Kills recently released a short film in support of their new release Blood Pressures. In the film Alison and Jamie explain the story behind the album and also what provoked and inspired them to record every song. Besides there's some acoustic footage for three of the songs, namely "Pots and Pans", "Baby Says" and "The Last Goodbye". The short film is produced by thirtytwo, responsible for the Grammy-nominated Blur documentary "No Distance Left To Run".

Morrissey - People Are The Same Everywhere/Action Is My Middle Name/The Kids A Looker

Morrissey, this wonderful rebellious child of Mother Brittania is one restless spirit. To prove that he recorded a brand new yet untitled album, tenth in his solo career and performed three new track off that album which were broadcasted on BBC Radio 2. Now judging from what I've heard, Morrissey has not lost his songwriting and performing abilities and once more delivered some really astonishing songs. But then again this is Morrissey, no one expects by less from him. The guy's simply great. I can only imagine how good would his new album be. Well here's a glimpse of what's to come. Below's three songs recorded live at Maida Vale on the 10th of June for BBC. I think they're absolutely brilliant. Hopefully they won't be the last to hear from Morrissey.

Morrissey, този лиричен и непокорен син на Майка Британия е както винаги неподатлив на времената и нравите. Доказва го с чисто новите песни, които наскоро пусна в нета и които можеш да чуеш по-долу. Освен това Morrissey има записан изцяло нов материал под формата на албум, десети пореден за който все още няма издател, поне според думите на самия артист. Затова колко добри са новите му парчета можеш да се убедиш и сам, като преслушат тези постнати по-долу. Записани са на живо и излъчени на 10-ти Юни по радио BBC Radio 2. Да се надяваме, че това няма да е последното, което ще чуем от Morrissey.

Sisters of Radomir - "Hippies of Pernik" (official video)

Debut video for the Bulgarian band Sisters of Radomir, a band that I used to think of as industrial (even in the clip there's some obvious Rammstein influences) but the band themselves describes their sound as black 'n' roll. Well the band does incorporate some aspects of the black metal genre but upon careful listening one will clearly distinguish other influences as well. Still the whole thing sounds good.

Дебютно видео на българската банда Sisters of Radomir, група която поне аз дълго време смятах за industrial (дори клипа ми бие малко на Rammstein). Интересното е, че самата група се определя като блек енд рол, в което лошо няма, но като изключим вокалите и имиджа, друго общно с блек метъла май нямат. Личи си, че имат и други влияния освен очевадните. Иначе признавам си не съм се интересувал от бандата, дори не съм ги гледал още на живо, но през цялото време докато гледах клипа, имах натрапчивото усещане, че вокала ми е познат от някъде. Незнам защо, но страшно много ми прилича на Киро от бившата вече телевизия ММ. Не че има някакво значение, ама ми стана интересно. Иначе "хвалебствената" песен за пернишките хипита е готина, но далеч не им е единствената добра. Интересен експеримент съчетаващ в себе си блек метъл, индъстриъл, рок и може би още нещо, което сега ми убягва. Дали това е нещо временно или Сестрите имат намерение да се развиват като група, предстои да се разбере. А дотогава слушайте миньорските излияния на тези Сестри.

Lé Betre - A Bat And A Unicorn EP

Here's one super-cool four-piece stoner-rock band from Leksand, Sweden. Despite being a new band they sound like having at least a decade worth of experience. Their sound is indeed very mature and diverse. If you're looking for something new yet edgy go for this band. You won't regret.

Ето една адски добра (поне според мен) stoner-rock група от Швеция. Въпреки, че са нова група и имат издадено само едно EP, звучат сякаш имат зад гърба си дългогодишен опит. Слушайки ги, няма да чуеш нещо революционно или нещо ново, а просто добре звучащ рок. Ако търсиш нещо различно преслушай EP-то. Според мен си заслужава.

Panache – "Filles et Garçons: un dilemme" (video)

J'ai aime la musique francais mais ceci c'est ne pas francais. Au contraire c'est canadiene, il vient de Montreal et le clip est trop mimi. Moi personalement j'aime bien. Voici le dernier (pour l'instant) clip de le rockeur canadien Panache pour son chanson "Filles et Garçons: un dilemme" extrait de son nouveau album éponyme.

I like french music but this one isn't french. On the contrary it's Canadian, it comes from Montreal and the clip is super-cute. I personally like it a lot. Here's the latest (for now) video from Canadian rocker Panache for his song "Filles et Garçons: un dilemme" from his new eponymous album.

Харесвам френската музика, но това което ще чуете по-долу не е френско. Даже напротив, канадско е и идва от Монреал, а клипчето е супер-сладко. Лично аз го харесвам много. Това за което говоря е новото (което всъщност не е толкова ново) видео на канадския музикант Panache към песента му "Filles et Garçons: un dilemme" от последният му засега епонимен албум.

Alley Sin w/ Reckoning

22.04.11 ALLEY SIN w/ Reckoning@The Box
Friday some are in love, others attend concerts. I'm from the latter. Friday night has always been a time for drinking and having a good time and this Friday was no exception. The past one year I learned many things but above all one in particular: when there's Alley Sin there's always fun. The bulgarian glam-rockers are already well-known to the local rock community with their two EPs, one demo, an extensive tour across the country and numerous gigs throughout Sofia, and with fans coming from Sofia and beyond. The only true glam-rock band in Bulgaria (which by the way is the only one that can really support someone as big as glam-rock legends Cinderella) is a favorite among many with it's genuine R&R attitude that attracts all kinds of people from rockers to punks. During their previous concert at one time there was even a pogo in which I proudly took part. Every gig of the band is sure to bring good emotions and fun to all attendees. Knowing all that and being a fan of the band already I went that night knowing that Alley Sin will not only perform their most beloved songs but they'll present it's audience with a brand new single - "Shut Up, Bitch", the video of which will have it's separate promotion of the 15th of May. So that night I went like 30 minutes later only to find out that the sound-check was over moments ago. Noone knew exactly when the concert will start but I don't think anyone really cared. All this meant one thing: more meet, greet and drink with the band. And who doesn't want that. I'm always in for a drink with the band. So after a hour and something chatting and drinking with the band it was time to head back to club "The Box" as the concert was about the start. First for the night was the supporting act, Reckoning, a trash-metal band I've heard for the very first time. The youngsters tried to put up a decent show, some of their schoolmates were even trying to form a moshpit. But I wasn't impressed. The lack of experience was clearly evident. Not that it was that bad, it's just that they need some more practice. Good thing was that eventually they finished playing. Alley Sin were eager to jump on stage which they did with no further delay. Well it was obvious that it's gonna be a fun night when Alley Sin are playin' and that my friends was proven once more. The crowd went crazy with the very first accords and from then on it was only rock & roll and they liked it. Alley Sin did perform some new tracks, the aforementioned "Shut Up, Bitch", "Two Chicks" and a few others which will end up on their very first album who hopefully will see the light of day. The band ended their set with a cover of Misfits' "Attitude" (if I recall correctly). Overall it was a fun night as always by the way. See you again, guys.
