Denne er ikke udgivet endnu men findes allerede på nettet og er noget af det mest spektakulære længe hørt. Pastoren omtalte den forleden og kaldte den “underligt triumferende”. Vi taler naturligvis om sangen Intervention, en af hjørnestenene på Neon Bible, Arcade Fire’s nye album. En moderne salme af elendighed, hvis kulsorte scenarie løftes højt op på en musikalsk himmel af brusende kirkeorgel, klokker og et uskyldsrent børnekor. Hvis mennesket fortjener sin egen og hele verdens kollektive undergang, synger Arcade Fire den her ud som storslået forløsning snarere end som straf. Arkiver under “a” for anderledes ateistisk samt absolut apokalyptisk.

INTERVENTION

The king’s taken back the thrown
The useless seed is sown
And when they say they’re cutting off the phone
I’ll tell ’em you’re not home

No place to hide
You’ll be fighting as a soldier on their side
You’re still a soldier in your mind
But nothing’s on the line

You say it’s money that we need
As if we’re only mouths to feed
And knowing no matter what you say
There are some debts you’ll never pay

Working for the church while your family dies
You take what they give you and you keep it inside
Every spark of friendship and love will die without a home
Hear the soldier groan or go at it alone

I can taste the fear
Lift me up and take me out of here
Don’t want to fight, don’t want to die
Just want to hear you cry

Who’s gonna throw the very first stone
Oh, who’s gonna re-set the bone
Walking with your head in a sling
Wanna hear the soldier sing

Working for the church while my family dies
Your little baby sister’s gonna lose her mind
Every spark of friendship and love will die without a home
Hear the soldier groan or go at it alone

I can taste your fear
It’s gonna lift you up and take you out of here
And the bone shall never heal
I cannot if you kneel

We can’t find you now
But they’re gonna get their money back somehow
And when you finally disappear
We’ll just say that you were never here

Been working for the church while your life falls apart
Been singing hallelujah with the fear in your heart
Every spark of friendship and love will die without a home
Hear the soldier groan or go at it alone
Hear the soldier groan or go at it alone

Når Gaffa kommer os i forkøbet med egne nyheder, må vi hellere hugge fra Gaffa:

Skaberkraften hos den bibelstærke ”Out-backer” er åbenbart uudslukkelig, for ikke nok med at han 5. marts barsler med debutpladen fra sit nye band Grinderman, han planlægger således også indspilningen af et nyt Bad Seeds-album med indspilningsstart i juli.

Indtil videre vil Cave dog ikke afsløre for meget om sangene på den endnu unavngivne plade, som han ifølge Billboard kun har arbejdet på i tre uger, og som vil blive en opfølger til dobbeltudgivelsen fra 2004 ”Abattoir Blues/The Lyre of Orpheus”.

Den produktive sangskriver forklarer også, at projektet Grinderman er et forsøg på at øge udgivelsesfrekvensen, så han ikke behøver at vente tre år mellem pladerne fra The Bad Seeds; tre år er den tid pladeselskaberne, ifølge Cave, forventer der må gå fra en pladeudgivelse til den næste.

BOUNDARY RIDER

There’s a boundary rider
at the five mile fence
bloodwood, bones + steers

And the sky’s so deep
you can’t find your sleep
keeps you walking through these tears

So you reach for things
you’re never satisfied
you’re running down the years

And to know yourself
is to be yourself
keeps you walking through these tears

Some days you ride it hard
to stop them getting out
then comes the day you ride
to stop them getting in

There’s a boundary rider
on the five mile fence
bloodwood, bones + steers

And to know yourself
is to be yourself
keeps you walking through these tears

Jens siger, at “folk ude i byen” tror at denne blog er et “musiksite”, hvor vi modtager anmeldereksemplarer af den musik, andre indspiller og udsender. Gid vi gjorde! Alle albums her er erhvervet med vore egne surt bortødslede spareskillinger. Hermed en opfordring til alle pladeselskaber om at overdænge os med jeres seneste gode udgivelser (og kun dem, tak).

Det er faktisk lykkedes mig nu at lytte til hele det nye album Neon Bible med Arcade Fire. Jeg vil allerede nu hævde, at dette nye album slet ikke er skidt; ja, det er faktisk endnu bedre end Funeral. Denne gang er der ikke så melankolsk en stemning over musikken som sidst – teksterne har jeg ikke helt fanget endnu. Ja, jeg følte mig løftet uden i øvrigt at være i løftet stemning, da albummet var færdig med at spille.

Især den underligt triumferende sang “Intervention” med kirkeorglet, men også “Antichrist Television Blues” (hvilken titel!), “No Cars Go”, “Windowsill” og afslutningsnummeret “My Body Is A Cage” (hvor kirkeorglet vender stærkt tilbage) greb mig. Strygere er der også på dette album, men denne gang fra et stort orkester. En sang som “Keep The Car Running” giver mig mindelser om Springsteen omkring Born To Run, måske ikke i arrangementet, men i melodi og stemning.

Hør “Intervention” på http://goodblimey.com/archives/2006/12/31/arcade-fire-intervention/ og køb hele albummet, når det kommer.

Og se en anmeldelse her.

Den 6. marts kommer det nye album fra Arcade Fire, og det hedder Neon Bible. Hvis man som jeg synes at Funeral var værd at lytte til, er man sikkert spændt på hvad canadierne nu har fundet på.

Jeg er ikke alene om at være spændt. Koncerten i Store Vega d. 25. marts var nemlig udsolgt på 4 minutter, så nu er den flyttet til KB-Hallen.

Man kan allerede nu høre et par numre på WWW. Lyt til “Black Mirror” på http://www.arcadefire.com/cms_res/af-black_mirror.mp3. Og på
http://www.myspace.com/arcadefireofficial kan man høre “Keep The Car Running”.

Ingen af numrene lyder forresten dårligt.

Clap Your Hands Say Yeah er allerede nu ude med sophomore-pladen, der skal leve op til debutens anmelderroste rodebutik af ubesværet opfindsomhed og anderledes fingeraftryk. På Some Loud Thunder inviteres atter ind i den skitsernes labyrint, som er hjemstedet for CYHSY’s færdigindspillede sange. Meget dér er uforløst, men intet heldigvis uden mening. For bag selv de længste rækker af svimlende ens akkorder og afhakkede rytmer kommer forløsning og fyldestgørelse. Nogle gange ved en lille tonal ændring i den musikalske opbygning/nedbrydning, andre gange i de små nuancer i Alec Ounsworths gutterale husmorsvømning. Og undskyld vi kalder hans sang for dét, som ikke er negativt ment. Hver fugl synger med sit næb og lyden af Ounsworths er en af de mere opsigtsvækkende i ny musik. På trods af kraftige klangmindelser om David Byrne (Talking Heads) og Gordon Gano (Violent Femmes) er Ounsworth helt sin egen, uden megen hensyntagen til begrænsende konventioner som tonalitet og gammeldags vokale skønhedsbegreber. Den lyd og tilgang er på Some Loud Thunder med til at skabe en lille som stor musik, der, udstyret med en imponerende mangel på ordenssans, trækker langt, langt væk fra tidens og hverdagens strømlinede rationalitet. Hen et fremmed sted, hvor op godt må være ned, hvor selv mørke er ladet med lys, og hvor disse frihedselskende sange næsten spiller og synger sig selv. Føles som vi har brug for det.

PS – Kommer der mon andre plader i år end Some Loud Thunder, hvor så forskellige konkrete størrelser som Satan og stedet Jamaica besynges? Yep, en ialfald. Den hedder Aftenland Express og har en hel del med denne side at gøre…

Fortællende sange som f.eks. den nye single har ofte helt særlige kvaliteter. “Coke Lovebirds” indskriver sig i en lang tradition. Tænk på f.eks. “Tangled Up In Blue” fra Bobs Blood On The Tracks eller Bruces “Jungleland” fra Born to Run.

(Og nej, billedet ovenfor har intet med singlen at gøre.)

Endnu en mærkedag i rækken af rockikoner, der blev mordere. Netop i dag er det præcis 40 år siden den britiske producer Joe Meek skød sin værtinde og derefter skød sig selv.

Joe Meek var også: En sangskriver, der ikke kunne spille et instrument. En spiritist med et brændende ønske om at få kontakt med Buddy Hollys ånd. En bøsse, der levede på et tidspunkt, hvor homoseksualitet ikke var almindeligt accepteret i Storbritannien. Alt i alt en kompliceret skæbne.

Ikke mange kan huske Joe Meek selv, men hans hits fra 1960’erne er der sikkert mange, der kender. Instrumentalhittet “Telstar” er efter sigende Margaret Thatchers yndlingsnummer. Derfor kan det dog alligevel være værd at lytte til.

Husk at der for nylig er udkommet et dansk hyldestalbum til Joe Meek, The Lady With The Crying Eyes. Selveste Henrik Hall synger nummeret “Just Like Eddie”.

I dag er det 28 år siden, John Simon Ritchie tog en overdosis heroin. Stoffet fik han af sin mor, der selv var en erfaren misbruger. 21 år og 8 måneder gammel var han også selv en erfaren mand: Han havde været medlem af et stildannende band fra London, havde været på USA-turné med selvsamme og havde slået sin kæreste ihjel.

I dag kan man købe samlerfigurer af Sid Vicious. Se ovenfor. Og bemærk hvordan han næsten ikke rører ved strengene.

Se http://www.starstore.com/acatalog/Starstore_Catalogue_MUSIC_ACTION_FIGURES_2878.html, hvor man også kan erhverve sig figurer af f.eks. John Lennon, Jimi Hendrix, Kurt Cobain – og My Chemical Romance (jeg vidste ikke at de var døde…)

På denne grå regnfulde dag for præcis 28 år siden påbegynder The Clash sin første tour nogensinde i Nordamerika, kaldet Pearl Harbour Tour. Den kulminerer midt-februar, efter en lang, hård vinterrejse fra vest mod øst, i New York City, hvor det hypede show på Palladium overværes af bl.a. Bruce Springsteen, David Johansen, Andy Warhol, Nico, John Cale, Robert De Niro og hele Blondie. Joe Strummer skriver hjem til NME og fortæller:

JOE STRUMMER DIARIES OF PEARL HARBOUR TOUR
NME, March 1979

We meet at the airport and get on a plane to Vancouver. There seems to be quite a lot of us. We got baker and johnny green our backline crew, and rob and adrian who are welsh sound men.-warren “gandalf” sparks lighting engineer, and barry -scratchy’ myers, the famous d.j. Then there’s the four of us and caroline croon to handle the business.

“even aerosmith dont travel with so many people,” says epic records. .

– “ah yes we reply,” but we ve gqtta do it properly!”.

So, 17 hours later here we are vancouver, canada. No blizzards no snow no mounties—just the customs. They go through everything, confiscating studded belts, armbands, knives, cos they cant find any drugs. “if we’d known it was gonna be like this, we’d have brought some drugs for you” we tell ‘em. But they dont smile they just kick us out, knifeless and beltless.

Anyway, on with the show. We play the agora ballroom, which shold be called the agora cowboy saloon. Q. Are we not men? Ans. No, we are nervous.

But the show goes off real good an we meet bo diddley at last. Bo is coming on the tour and the next -morning a big shiny greyhound bus draws up outside the hotel with two nashville drivers: its all aboard first stop, California.

The bus is real neat with bunks a pisshole an a tv video. Its just come off away on jennings tour. We cross the us border real easy, no, search, nothing; “then its non stop across oregon.

– about midnight we doss in a ‘ faceless motel. I wake up and as i’m searching for some breakfast ,ace penna our us tour manager tells me ”hey, did ja know sid is dead?” i grab him by the throat “what do you mean” i snarl. Then as it sinks in, i dont want no breakfast. Our first morning in america.

In california the sun is shining weakly .the other people walk about the streets weakly.in fact everything here is done weakly except for when the cops get hold of you. We play the Berkeley Community Theatre on the college campus our first mistake, meaning, it aint our scene but we play and they dig it, tapping their biology books in time to the tunes.

Bill graham, famous hippie promoter is promoting the show and making all the money, but he leaves town just before we arrive. Next night however we agree to play a benefit for this youth organization who are trying to-open up the s.f.scene by promoting cost price rock shows. The show is really great ,the hall is really great, the audience is really great but we gotta leave straight after the set to drive the 400 miles to los angeles.

The drive takes all night and we test out the bunks which are like comfy shelves. We hit l.a. In the-morning an we gotta play the santa monica centre the same night. Me an mick try to get a look at hollywood’ but we collapse instead. Later mick tells me his hotel bed just kept moving all the time.just like mine. And we work out it is because we were on the bus all night.

The santa monica civic centre turns out to be a concrete barn. I only remember the really good shows or the really bad shows. So this one must have been just o.k. Cos my memory is blank.

Right after the set, they drag in some epic people. Quite a lot of em, line em up and try to get us to pose with them. I’m fed up with this so i’look at topper and he reads mythoughts ’lets fuck off outof it” he says almost simultaneously as mick and paul say it. So we do. When the epic people leave they do not speak and they do not look the air is thick as they file past.

Again straight after the show we gotta hit the road. A load of fans give us a great send off so we are all in a good mood as we head for oklahoma city.

On the bus Bo sits-up front’ slugging “rock n rye” and pouring. Out anecdotes from his 23 years on the road. The bus has three video tapes — star wars (groan) king creole(hooray) an blood for , dracula. Topper sits with his feet up showing off his new spurs watching these or-playing tricks on Bo with -whom he has hit it off real great. Mick and paul sit up the back plugged into-some jumping rockabilly, watching the endless truck tops slide by.

Drivling to oklahoma city is like driving from london to glasgow 10 times. So i get my head down and when i wake up we are in texas, i know this because johnny green and baker are wearing the biggest -cowboy hats i ever seen.

Texas is one of the best places although i cant say why. We are trying to reach cleveland ohio hoping to catcha plane in oklahoma city. Theres plenty of snow fog and ice at the airport but no planes. The bus has gone to nashville for repairs so we sit and wait. 24 hours later we finally get to cleveland, flying the roundabout route.

This guy called larry mcintyre lost both his legs in vietnam and when he went for a swim one day in the pool near his flat all the other residents banned him from the pool, on the grounds that it was too ‘ disgusting… So we agree to play a show for him, helping his legal costs but we dont get to meet him, i think because, having forgot his name, I reffered to him over the PA as the guy with no legs.

Incidently, to give you some idea of the size of the country, we meet some people who had travelled 800 miles to see the show.

Next stop is washington d.c.the bus has caught up with us so its all aboard. On this drive bo gives up his bunk to his guitar and he sleeps. Sitting up. So does Mick because nothing on earth will tempt him to get back in one of the bunks.

Meanwhile outside its 32 below zero and as we are filling up some place the brakes freeze up and are locked solid. So we have to sit and wait a few hours for them to thaw.

Those of you who stayed awake in school will know this is the us capital. Strangely enough most of the population is black, which makes all the white politicians a little nervous. We was gonna pay a call on jimmy carter but he was down in mexico,having a massage. So we played d.c. And headed out for boston. Even though this was only last week my memory has gone .again so lets say it was okay and get on with it, which means new york! New York! (so good they named it twice etc.).

New york is definately an o.k. Town. All the streets are straight and its laid out like a chess board.some parts are dead flash like manhattan and some parts are burnt out slums like the south bronx.

We was playing the Palladium.a bit like the Rainbow.this was the third gig in three days.and with all the travelling we was pretty knackered. During the sound check i over heard a yank talking to his mate “wow these guys have had it/they can hardly stand up, never mind play!”

Then bo told me the worst audiences in the US were detroit and nyc. “if you can play new york you can play anywhere” .

By gig time the place was packedand all the top liggers in town were there.we were plenty nervous halfway through the show i checked the audience and became convinced that we were going down like a ton of bricks. But like they say its a tough town and by the end of the day we managed to whip it out and give ‘em some of our best.

We stuck around for a day or so to see the sights like studio 54 which is okay but nothing to write home about.to get in without paying you have to turn up with andy warhol.

One more show to go, in toronto. We fly there to do the gig which is in a cinema. The dressing room actually is a toilet and the pa. Sounds as if its filled with hamsters on coke. Even though it sounds rough we really enjoy it and so do they, storming the stage at the end english style. One of the funniest things i ever saw was these two bouncers trying to hold the whole audience back. The two of them! After the first number they were swamped so they gave up and went ‘ home.

And the next day so did we, to break, crack, storm or blitz america you have to work as hard as elvis costello, shake hands and smile like the boomtown rats, and sound like dire straights. Of the three. We could make the first but not the rest so we are going to go back to play the us agal n but we must also play britain, japan, europe, australia, and its fair shares all round. Hey! I hear theyre really rocking in russia.

De to seneste indlæg her har taget udgangspunkt i Australien/New Zealand, så her en personlig top-10 over legendarisk gode sange lavet og udført af folk derfra:

1. Cattle And Cane – The Go-Betweens
2. Fairytale Love – The Triffids
3. Reptile – The Church
4. I’m Stranded – The Saints
5. Kare Kare – Crowded House
6. On A Night Like This – Kylie Minogue

9. Aloha Steve & Danno – Radio Birdman
10. I Want You Back – Hoodoo Gurus

Sir Nick Cave har de seneste ca. 25 år boet i London, Berlin, Sao Paolo og nu Brighton, så han får ikke lov at deltage…

Hvad har alle disse navne til fælles?

Rage Against The Machine, Björk, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Arcade Fire, Interpol, Willie Nelson, the Roots, Manu Chao, the Decemberists, Arctic Monkeys, Sonic Youth, Crowded House, Air, Tiësto og Kings of Leon

?

De skal alle spille på Coachella-festivalen i USA, der begynder 27. april i år. Og I har set rigtigt – der står Crowded House. Og så endda kun få måneder efter dvd-udgivelsen af gruppens afskedskoncert. Den besætning, der var bag gruppens efter manges mening bedste album, Together Alone, er sammen igen. Dvs. Neil Finn, Nick Seymour og Mark Hart – men desværre ikke Paul Hester, der døde på tragisk vis i 2005. Heller ikke Tim Finn ser ud til at være med.

Mark Hart forsøgte sig efter tiden i Crowded House som medlem af noget så skummelt som Supertramp, men der skal jo brød på bordet. (Jvnfr. Tommy Stinson.)

Der kommer endda et nyt album, Time On Earth, produceret af Ethan Johns – søn af Glyn Johns og bedst kendt som produceren bag f.eks. Ryan Adams.

Sidste år så et af de bedste australske bands nogensinde, The Triffids fra Perth, blive fejret og nyopdaget med en udvidet genudgivelse af Born Sandy Devotional, det dramafyldte gennembruds-album fra 1986. The Triffids – og specielt sanger David McComb – havde en sjælden evne for romantisk, stort-orkestreret pop-musik, der lød af en helt anden verden – måske det var Australien? Historien er ikke sjælden, med de superlative anmeldelser men skuffende pladesalg, som The Triffids høstede. Man turnerede intenst i Europa, gav bl.a. nogle fremragende shows her i Danmark – i Montmartre, i Carlton, i en gammel fin teatersal i Roskilde – og forsvandt så i opbrud og frustration over manglende kommerciel respons. Mens resten af bandet fandt sig vej hjem til Australien blev kun bassist Martin P. Casey tilbage, nu som fast medlem af Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds. Forsanger David McComb, ham med den store stemme, udsendte meget senere en enkelt uinspireret solo-plade, men da var han vistnok allerede forsvundet langt ind i drug-trouble-land, hvor han i 1999 døde, kun 36 år gammel. Siden har der været stille, både omkring ham og The Triffids, lige indtil sidste års Born Sandy Devotional blev sendt i kredsløb igen. Og den får nu snart selskab af de to efterfølgende albums; In The Pines, den enkle “mellem-plade”, indspillet hurtigt og bevidst primitivt i et fåreklipper-skur i ørken-landskabet uden for Perth, og Calenture, bandets absolutte mesterværk, hvor sangmateriale, arrangementer, elegant produktion, nerve og McComb’s filmiske tekster går op i en så højere enhed, der nemt overstiger de samtidige anmelder-sammenligninger med især Echo & The Bunnymens ligeledes stort anlagte Ocean Rain. Her er tracklistingen på de kommende Triffids-discs:

Og hvad betyder Calenture? Ifølge pladens cover dette: “Tropical fever or delirium suffered by sailors after long periods away from land, who imagine the seas to be green fields and desire to leap into them.” En beskrivelse der også fint illustrerer The Triffids’ længselsfulde univers…

Ole Hyltoft er netop blevet udnævnt af Dansk Folkeparti til deres repræsentant i Danmarks Radios bestyrelse. Her er hvad han har at sige om sin mediepolitik i dagens udgave af Information:

“Der er noget oplæg til krig og fascisme i en del af rockmusikken,” siger Ole Hyltoft. Ud over at det er for ensidigt, er det faktisk også skadeligt, mener han. Da Nørrebrogade den 16. december 2006 blev omdannet til en kampzone mellem ‘de unge’ og politiet, spillede DR’s tredje musikkanal en indirekte rolle:

“Man kan få den tanke, at den manglende ynde, smidighed og humanisme i den hårde rockmusik i virkeligheden ansporer unge mennesker til at gå så vidt, som de gjorde, da de angreb og faktisk forsøgte at slå politiet ihjel,” siger det nye bestyrelsesmedlem, der er ret sikker på, at man lytter til P3 på Jagtvej 69.

Det var nok ikke fra den kant, man forventede at høre nogens tiltro til rockmusikkens potentiale som samfundsforandrende kraft.

Han går nok ikke og nynner den med Joan Jett.

YOU AND US

Listen to Miss Kittin and The Hacker’s new direction
Driving a car or three on three, giving you a piece of life and energy somewhere out in the universe, for a novel
We try to analyze feelings, thinking about you, friends, mountains, and party times
I wish you could see us, how we are, how we love and hate

This is what our music is about, you and us
This is what our music is about, you and us
This is what our music is about, you and us
This is what our music is about.

Listen to Miss Kittin and The Hacker, our mind is real, on a cloud, when someone’s playing us in a club at night.
And we receive smiling on the dance floor, trying to forget everything
We don’t know you, but you are a part of ourselves, and we can look into your eyes, wherever you are

Because this is what our music is about, you and us
Cause that is what our music is about, you and us

Listen to Miss Kittin and The Hacker, we take planes, from hotels every weekend, we drive on the highway to other places, looking at the landscape running behind the window, we are all alone
Listen to something on the stereo

We would like to see skyline and city lights of New York, or Tokyo and then come back to the green fields we know, and do nothing
And sleep
And do that again and again

Because, this is what our music is about, you and us
This is what our music is about, you and us
This is what our music is about, you and us

Listen to Miss Kittin and The Hacker because this is what our music is about, you and us
You, and us.

Listen to Miss Kittin and The Hacker’s new direction
Driving a car or three on three, giving you a piece of life and energy somewhere out in the universe, for a novel
We try to analyze feelings, thinking about you, friends, mountains, and party times
I wish you could see us, how we are, what we love and hate

This is what our music is about, you and us
This is what our music is about, you and us
You and us
This is what our music is about, you and us
This is what our music is about, you and us

We would like to see skyline and city lights of New York, or Tokyo and then come back to the great fields we know, and do nothing
And sleep
And do that again and again

This is what our music is about, you and us
This is what our music is about, you and us
