Novas apostas das Preces (Clássicos instantâneos - basta juntar água!)

Um dos melhores deste ano.

Um tema realmente bem conseguido deste membro da A.C. que vive em Portugal.

Uma palavra: BRUTAL!

Bom dia!

Um clássico das preces...

Tive a enorme sorte de os ver ao vivo. Foi genial!

Não é a minha praia, mas seria, se tivesse sempre esta qualidade.

“I’ve been thinking a lot about the things we tell ourselves in order to ‘forget’ the toll of our collective actions: whatever makes it easier to forgive what we’re complicit in. Some of that is related to the environment and how people have trained themselves to tune out ‘environmentalist propaganda’. We made part of the video at a park in Kingston, NY and the archival footage is mostly pulled from films aimed at employees or shareholders of various industries. The narration for many of them (forestry, agriculture, mining, energy) was surprisingly concerned with the dangers of an environment out of balance… Shows you that we haven’t learned much in the last 70 years. On the other hand, the lyrics are also about capitalism and how it trains us to see everything in terms of value, even our experiences, and we get so caught up in seeking some sort of return on investment that we ignore the damage we inflict (on people, on ourselves, on the planet).”

Muita fixe!!!

Uma das mais notáveis compositoras da "actualidade actual"

Para quem segue a melhor rubrica deste fórum em termos de qualidade musical

Deixo aqui esta banda que ando a descobrir:

Estreia nacional aqui nas preces, a melhor rubrica de música de qualquer fórum do mundo

Um tema bem conseguido.

Um tema bem conseguido.

Começam a ser dinossauros...Mas para já ainda por aqui!

Faz falta a Kim Deal...

O som dessas sessões na Six é muito "ao vivo".

Faz mesmo muita falta, fui vê-los antes da COVID e foi uma desgraça eu que os vi em 1991 na primeira vez que vieram a Portugal, concerto que considero o melhor que já vi até hoje.

E depois vem alguém dizer antigamente é que era....

Embora fora de pé das minhas influências musicais, este tema deixa-me extasiado!

Já nasceu um clássico. Uma banda de culto estes Timber Timbre.

Bela "malha" para quem tem a malha bem apertada.

Um grande concerto num espaço pequeno!

Tema reeditado em vinil pela Dark Entries Records.

Dark Entries is pleased to announce a deluxe reissue of Sexual Harrassment’s 1983 opus I Need A Freak. Lynn Tolliver, DJ/Program Director at Cleveland’s WZAK, adopted the pseudonym David Payton in order to keep his musical endeavors separate from his public persona. Sexual Harrassment (misspelled deliberately) was formed as a concept band, with members selected based on appearance and choreographic skill rather than musical ability. Tolliver’s explicit lyrics focused on the central themes of desire and sexual relations. Working at a studio in Akron, he recorded an album of quirky-yet-lurid electro funk, which was released on Heat Records. Tolliver remarks, “I learned as a youngster, sex sells! The things that are rated the worst – violence, horror and sex – are the things people want to see or hear about.” I Need a Freak was a surprise hit, selling over 100,000 copies.
I Need A Freak is presented here for the first time on double LP, pressed at 45 rpm for maximum DJ-friendliness. While the album’s naughtier moments seem quaint by contemporary standards, the fusion of lo-fi funk and disaffected vocals still stuns today. On the eternal electro-raunch anthem “I Need a Freak”, minimalism serves to highlight the lasciviousness of the deadpan lyrics, which were inspired by Lourdes Figueroa, Tolliver’s girlfriend at the time. Tolliver’s whimsy shines on tracks like “If I Gave You a Party” and “K.I.S.S.I.N.G.”, which contrast nursery rhyme structures with decidedly R-rated lyrics. “Exercise Your Ass Off” lampoons the home exercise craze, but with a more-than-suggestive sexual bent. Also included are two bonus cuts, “We Want Prince” and “These Are The Things That I Like”, previously released as singles in 1984 and 1986, respectively. “We Want Prince” is both a homage to the Purple one and a gentle satire of obsessive fandom.
I Need A Freak has been remastered by George Horn at Fantasy Studios. The album comes in a gatefold sleeve featuring the original artwork. Included are lyrics, photos, and liner notes by Lynn Tolliver and drummer Dale Jackson. Tolliver’s sly provacateurship is best captured by the quote: “It’s funny – without sex, mankind is dead, yet we hide the very thing we need.”

Uma banda que sigo religiosamente faz cerca de 10 anos. Estes putos são muito, muito bons!

De quando-a-quando sabe tão bem ouvir a voz de Paul Banks e a guitarra de Daniel Kessler.
