Indierock-gruppen HAPPY BIRTHDAY bestående av sjefslåtskriver (og 

ROBERT SCHNEIDER-sound-a-liken) KYLE THOMAS (aka KING TUFF), 

RUTH GARBUS, og CHRIS WEISMAN ble dannet ifjor, og etter bare fem 

konserter, hvorav fire var i hjembyen Brattleboro, VT, ble bandet signet til 

Sub Pop, alt i løpet av et virvelvind av et år. En grunn til den umiddelbare 

fremgangen skyldtes nok mye deres bånd til gruppene WITCH (hvor 

Thomas spiller med J. MASCIS bl.a.) og FEATHERS (hvor Thomas og 

Garbus er medlemmer), men det klart største salgspunktet for bandet er 

definitivt umiddelbarheten i musikken deres. Fylt med livlige poplåter, er 

HAPPY BIRTHDAYs selvtitulerte debutalbum klart for release. Les mer her:

0711297491821 

Dobbelt livealbum, innspilt på hjemmebane, med alltid glimrende DROP- 

KICK MURPHYS! Etter 14 år har de rukket å bli et av verdens mest elskede 

rockeband, takket være sin særegne (om enn ofte kopierte) irske punkrock, 

sine ekstremt fengende låter og, ikke minst, sine forrykende liveopptredener. 

Alle som har opplevd bandet på scenen, vet at de overgår det aller meste 

hva angår energi, allsangrefrenger og publikumskontroll. Alt dette er behørig 

dokumentert på denne CD+Hi-Def DVD-pakken som slippes perfekt timet 

til St. Patrick’s Day (17. mars), med DkM-slagere som Shipping Up To Boston 

(kjent fra filmen The Departed, her med MIGHTY MIGHTY BOSSTONES 

som gjester), Tessie, The State Of Massachusetts, Forever og Kiss Me I’m 

Sh*tfaced. Dette kan regnes som en Greatest Hits fra et band som aldri 

skuffer – totalt 20 låter!

PETER MORÉN er for de fleste mest kjent som en tredjedel av PETER

og her er det Lyckliga Gatan hele veien for alle elskere av nabolandets 

popmusikk gjennom tidene! I Spåren Av Tåren er produsert i episk 60-tallsånd 

sammen med TOBIAS FRÖBERG, og de 10 låtene her er fylt av 

svensk kjærlighet, pompøst og fengende, ikke ulikt landsfrender som 

PER GESSLE, ANNA JÄRVINEN, MARKUS KRUNEGÅRD (som gjester 

på et par av låtene) eller en lofi-versjon av ORUP.

WHITE HINTERLAND 

KAIROS 

Dead Oceans 

DOC 034 

0656605133423 

På Kairos finner vi WHITE HINTERLAND utforske ytterkantene av 

minimal pop, oppnå en delikat, men livlig forførelse gjennom dype, 

tålmodige bassganger, prismatiske synthteksturer, og direkte, intime låter 

sunget med en myndiggjort dybde. CASEY DIENEL syr akrobatisk konturer 

av sin tidligere låtskriving inn i et slankere fokus og de dypere groovesene 

kler hennes klare stemme på en utmerket måte. Puh. 

”…spectral arrangements that sit somewhere between Kate 

Bush and Arthur Russell at their most accessible. A heady triumph” MOJO 

“Kairos represents a bold step for Dienel and White Hinterland” 7.5 PITCHFORK 

ORTOLAN

0656605552422 

Utmerket indiefolkpop med klare spor fra den uskyldige lyden av the golden 

age of American rock n’ roll fra søstre/svigerinne-kvartetten ORTOLAN. 

Vokalist/låtskriver STEPHANIE COTTINGHAM begynte å skrive låter 

allerede som trettenåring, har nå fylt sytten og med backing av søstrene 

og den stødige produksjonen til DANIEL ”DANIELSON” SMITH låter de 

kanskje omtrent som KIMYA DAWSON møter THE SHIRELLES møter 

WELCOME WAGON? 

Ortolan spilte på Egersund Visefestival i fjor sommer, la oss håpe 

noen booker dem til landet igjen snart.

GOLDEN TRIANGLE er et Brooklyn-band på Sub Pop-underbruket 

Hardly Art bestående av tre jenter og tre gutter som spiller musikk som 

er høy, skummel, og som vil gjøre deg opphisset og ambisiøs når du hører 

den. Double Jointer er deres debutalbum. Spilt inn over en to ukers 

periode på Key Club Recording Company med produsent CHRIS COADY 

(YEAH YEAH YEAHS, BEACH HOUSE, BLONDE REDHEAD), har Double 

Jointer farten og catchinessen til dagens garasje/weird-punk/lo-fi-scene 

med enkelte goth-understrømmer og no wave-gitarer. De spektrale damestemmene 

er sjefende, krevende, allvitende enheter fra førstesporet Cinco 

de Mayo til huset brenner ned med en skingrende gitarlinje på den episke 

albumavslutterem Arson Wells.

0711297490329 

Den engelske musikeren THOMAS WHITE, med bakgrunn fra ELECTRIC SOFT 

PARADE, BRAKES SPARKS, SEA POWER og PATRICK WOLF m.fl. slipper nå 

sitt andre soloalbum. WHITE spiller så godt som alt selv, og resultatet er bisarr, 

men fabelaktig postmoderne pop! ”As far removed from the melodic pop of his band 

Electric Soft Parade as Mercury is from Morecambe, The Maximalist opens the dam 

of ostensibly conflicting styles and releases the deluge in all its crazily self-confident, 

so-wrong-it’s-right glory. White fuses elements of THE WHO, CHICAGO, MBV, QOTSA, 

BADALAMENTI and BADFINGER, which is not just a feat of cut-and-paste engineering, 

but also proof of his verve, vivid imagination and fervent love of music.” 4/5 UNCUT

Seks-manns sterkt Trondheimsband med utgangspunkt i Narvik. 

Spør dem hva de låter som, og du får sannsynligvis seks forskjellige svar. 

De står med beina godt plantet i den hardere delen av rocken. Det vil si hardcore/ 

rock med energiske gitarer, allsangvennlige refrenger og inkludert saksofon, 

beats og analoge synther. Debut-EP med fem spor. Flotte saker.

MATS ÖBERG TRIO 

SO VERY MATS 

Moserobie 

MMPCD 068 

7320470128138 

Et av årets mest personlige jazz-album hittil, med et sound og en musikalitet som 

bare kan sammenlignes med de aller største innen genren på verdensbasis. Blinde 

MATS ÖBERG startet sin karriere i et FRANK ZAPPA-tributeband, og i 1988 opplevde 

han den ære å få spille sammen med mesteren selv da ZAPPA besøkte Stockholm. 

I 2006 mottok MATS hyllester fra jazz-verden for sitt soloalbum In The Moment fra 

2006, og med sitt første trio-album kommer han garantert til å motta enda flere og 

mer nesegruse hyllester. I tillegg til MATS selv på piano, består trioen av SEBASTIAN 

VOEGLER på trommer og FILIP AUGUSTSON på bass.

En av rockhistoriens mest legendariske sangere, BRIAN HOWE, begynte sin 

karriere i bandet WHITE SPIRIT sammen med gitarist JANICK GERS (IRON 

MAIDEN). Han fikk så jobben som sanger for TED NUGENT i 1984, og begynte siden 

i BAD COMPANY, der han sang i over 10 år. Etter over 19 millioner solgte album 

med BadCo, satset han på en solokarriere. Det er nå 13 år siden solodebuten, og på 

Circus Bar leverer han et knippe strålende låter som viser at stemmen fortsatt står til 

gull. PAT TRAVERS og WAYNE NELSON fra LITTLE RIVER BAND gjester på skiva.

I den amerikanske undergrunnen finnes det fortsatt band som står for ren og 

ekte death metal. VASAELETH er en del av denne eliten. En mørkere, ondere, 

styggere og mer brutal side av dødmetallen, som mange kanskje oppfatter som 

borte fra den amerikanske scenen. Men neida, VASAELETH leverer ekte vare.

WOLD regnes som det mest bisarre, unike, og mest ekstreme bandet Kanada noen 

sinne har fostret. Vi kan vel si at de er noe av det mest bisarre innen black metal 

også. En hypnotisk, intens og sonisk reise i tortur, støy og galskap.

FORHÅND 22. MARS 

After releasing two critically acclaimed full-lengths (Nine Times That Same Song, A Hundred 

Things Keep Me Up at Night) and several EPs on New York-based What’s Your Rupture?, 

Love Is All returned home to Gothenburg, Sweden after their spring 2009 tour with no record 

deal in place (and accordingly, no demands) to produce a new album. And so, the band members 

decided to take their time writing and recording and — gasp! — actually have a good 

time collaborating on the songs that would eventually comprise their third record: 

Two Thousand And Ten Injuries. 

The result is an eclectic collection of pop melodies, anchored by New Wave and punk rock 

rhythms, that are as refined as they are unpredictable. All told, Two Thousand And Ten Injuries 

successfully manages to be Love Is All’s most adventurous, and dare we say, accessible, 

album yet. 

PRESS MENTIONS 

Love Is All’s boisterous clamor is the real draw here. The band skips over cerebral tricks and 

hep posturing, instead going straight for adrenalized kicks, and it’s a rush that lasts long after 

the record ends. ~ The Village Voice 

Love Is All are a Swedish outfit and it was their last single, “Make Out Fall Out Make Up” that 

first caught my ear… An exciting, three-minute dead, slab of pure pop noise, dominated by 

Josephine Olausson’s enthusiastic vocal and a wall of vibratoless sax, the best kind. 

~ David Bowie 

MOSE ALLISON 

THE WAY OF THE WORLD 

Anti 

EPIT 70592 

8714092705928 


MOSE ALLISON’s new album and ANTI- debut The Way of the World arrives March 

23rd, 2010, marking his return to the recording studio after a 12 year absence. Working 

with maverick producer JOE HENRY, ALLISON has found his most sympathetic setting 

in years, surrounded by young, vibrant players, who add surprising slide guitar and 

some sinewy saxophone to the classic MOSE sound; The Way of the World also features 

MOSE’s first-ever duet with his daughter, singer AMY ALLISON. Yet this album is all MOSE, 

from the solo song Modest Proposal, a sly scalpel taken to organized religion, to the 

modernist, Monkish changes he takes the band through on the lone instrumental, Crush. 

ALLISON occupies a hallowed place in blues songwriting, sitting alongside DIXON and PERCY 

MAYFIELD in bringing a witty, urbane sensibility to the modern blues. Also well documented 

is his sway over a generation of British rockers – most rock fans know THE WHO’s blistering 

run-through of Young Man’s Blues on Live at Leeds, but are less aware of MOSE’s influence on 

JOHN MAYALL, VAN MORRISON, RAY DAVIES, and THE YARDBIRDS, all the way through 

to THE CLASH, who covered Look Here on Sandinista. Then there is that subtle, indefinable 

fact of MOSE’s voice, that laconic, laid-back singing style without which we would have no 

NORAH JONES, DIANA KRALL, BELLE AND SEBASTIAN, and SCHOOLHOUSE ROC. Not 

to mention ALLISON the respected pianist, with his nods to MONK and GARNER, and a slew 

of five-star Downbeat reviews in his piano bench. The Way of the World finds MOSE playing 

and writing with a new looseness, a playfulness and verve that belies his years, while behind 

the offhand swing lies the weight of those years, in the slowburn vitriol of MOSE’s mind in full 

gear. That canny blend of easy swing and lyrical incision makes The Way of the World an 

instant classic, in MOSE’s or anyone else’s repertoire.

HOME ACRES 

Polyvinyl 

PRC 189-2 / PRC 189-1 

0644110018922 / 0644110018915 


Aloha follows the acclaimed LP Some Echoes (2006) and acoustic EP Light Works (2007) 

with a powerful record that shows the band unbound by past influences and boldly stepping 

out of the shadows. 

Home Acres pushes the tempos and dials up the guitars, with the band’s slow-burn intensity 

sometimes overflowing into huge moments. But even as the energy surges, Aloha casts an 

otherworldy glow, serving up ambience and attack with equal measure. Lyrically, Home Acres 

tries to sort through the wreckage of the Great Lakes region and a way of life. Left abandoned 

“waiting for a getaway car that never came” in the record’s arena-rock-by-way-of-Silver 

Apples closer “Ruins,” we’re left to think that maybe we ought to have dreamt bigger and 

fought the urge to disengage. 

A suggestion that Aloha has taken to heart for its biggest, brightest record to date.

“If you like your metal passionate, heaving with ideas and rich in substance, 

then Barren Earth are a band you need in your life.” Zero Tolerance 

“Potent, aristocratic and utterly beautiful.” Terrorizer 

With a wealth of experience from internationally renowned acts, from former members of 

Finnish metallers Amorphis, to current members of Swallow the Sun, Moonsorrow, and 

Kreator, Barren Earth presents progressive and folk textured death/doom metal of the highest 

order on their hotly anticipated debut album on Peaceville Records. Titled ‘Curse of the Red 

River’, the album combines the best elements of metal, prog, and more obscure psychedelic 

rock – from Opeth to Pink Floyd, and Paradise Lost to Jethro Tull. 

The ‘Curse of the Red River’ recording session took place at Seawolf Studios, Helsinki (Ghost 

Brigade), in Summer 2009 with mixing carried out by the prolific Dan Swanö at Unisound in 

Sweden (Katatonia, Opeth, etc) who commented: “One of the best albums I have ever had 

the privilege to mix. The album is THAT good!!” 

Artwork comes courtesy of Travis Smith (Opeth, Katatonia, Bloodbath). 

Barren Earth recently conducted their debut live gig in Helsinki, and plan to embark upon 

a series of shows throughout 2010, with a performance at the renowned Summer Breeze 

festival already confirmed. 

“The debut album will be huge!” Rock Hard “I can already predict a lot of 

success for Barren Earth. You’ll hear a lot about this band in 2010” Metalstorm 

“This collective has the talent of Opeth and they are not ashamed to show this 

influence… a new super band has been born” Lords of Metal “Barren Earth challenged 

themselves and the metal scene. They created a masterpiece, earthshaking for every 

progressive and technical metal fan. With such an entrance, you are rarely forgotten!”

Crammed 

CRAW 55 

0876623005964 




They’ve been wowing festival and club audiences around the world non-stop for the last couple of years 

with their wild, powerful show, and now they are back with their strongest album so far. 

Balkan Beat Box - the three-headed, dancefloor-conquering powerhouse principally comprising Tamir 

Muskat, Ori Kaplan and Tomer Yosef - have been busy since the release of 2007’s devastating debut 

for Crammed < Nu-Med > (not forgetting last year’s fine remix collection < Nu-Made >) honing a sound 

that mixes musical gene pools more effectively than ever : they have arrived at < Blue Eyed Black Boy 

> - as loud, proud and politically-engaged a statement as you could hope for from this most 21st century 

of bands. Recorded across a suitably diverse range of European locations - Ori’s adopted city of 

Vienna, Austria, the Serbian capital of Belgrade and the band’s mutual hometown Tel-Aviv in Israel were 

all bases covered on this album’s journey - < Blue Eyed Black Boy > finds BBB going that bit deeper, 

finding striking melodies, rock-solid song structure and an ever-sharper political awareness alongside 

their typically artful sonic collision of global musical styles and thundering danceloor beats. 

First full track < Move It > is a trademark BBB block-rocker, with duelling brass blowing a minor-scale 

middle eastern wind across chunky tabla-assisted rhythms as MC Tomer spouts lyrical, cheekily referencing 

the band’s past glories (‘the digital monkeys on a move’) as well as dropping the immortal lines 

of roots-reggae legend Max Romeo, with an individualist twist (< we can show u how to send u to outer 

space/to fly on your ownŠ >). Yet with the title track that follows we are shown a new, more measured side 

to BBB : the pace slows to a loping groove, guitars shimmer and Tomer delivers a thoughtful paean to 

struggles of the racial, social and political kind, seen through the ‘blue eyes’ of the ‘black boy’ in question. 

In general the mood throughout < Blue Eyed Black Boy > remains buoyant and empowered, with

I Will Be is the debut full-length by the Dum Dum Girls. Recorded at home by Dee Dee and 

mixed with the help of Richard Gottehrer (Strangeloves, Voidoids, Blondie, The Go-Gos and, 

more recently, The Raveonettes), I Will Be is a decidedly medium-fi record. Just under thirty 

minutes with eleven songs, it’s a short tribute to love, fun and the classic pop form of the ‘60s 

girl groups and early punk rockers.

Red Sparowes is a Los Angeles based instrumental group known for its epic, heavy and 

sprawling sounds heard over the course of two full length albums -- At The Soundless Dawn 

(2005) and Every Red Heart Shines Toward the Red Sun (2006) both on Neurot Recordings 

-- three split discs and the recently released Aphorisms (2008) digital EP. The band consists 

of current and former members of Isis, Halifax Pier, Pleasure Forever, Angel Hair, Made Out 

of Babies and The VSS. 

The band toured extensively in the U.S. and Europe following the release of At The 

Soundless Dawn. A split EP release with Gregor Samsa was released in 2005 on 

Robotic Empire and the Black Tar Prophecies Vol. 1 split EP with Grails followed in 2006 on 

the same label. 

Red Sparowes second full-length release, Every Red Heart Shines Toward the Red Sun, 

was recorded at Prairie Sun and Louder Studios in San Francisco with producer Tim Green 

(Comets On Fire, The Fucking Champs, The Melvins). The album was released in September 

2006 and the band toured even more extensively throughout 2006-2007. 

Red Sparowes went into the studio with engineer Toshi Kasai (Melvins, Big Business, Tool) in 

May 2008 and the resulting 3-song EP Aphorisms was released digitally that July via Sargent 

House. A physical release consisting of 12” vinyl will be out in November of 2009. The band 

has just finished recording their third full-length album, with their new permanent guitarist 

Emma Ruth Rundle and returning again to producer, engineer Toshi Kasai.

I finally came into possession of an old guitar someone had given me at a nightclub in San Francisco 

awhile back; Eric Drew Feldman had been holding it for me there on Haight Street. He convinced 

me that it looked cool (it was black) and had been given in the spirit of benevolence. Every time I 

picked it up a nice chord came out and so I lovingly cleaned it with red wine in the dressing room 

the following night and began to write. I told the tour manager that we would drive in my Cadillac 

directly to a recording studio in Los Angeles (and could he book one, oh, and a rhythm section, 

too?) from the gig in San Luis Obispo which would put us at the studio at about 4am. It all happened 

according to plan and we cut the initial tracks there in the wee hours over a few days, and 

then moved on to an equally haunted studio in London and Eric Drew Feldman joined us there and 

we finished the record in St. John’s Wood. Like I said the studio was haunted and I wrote many a 

couplet by candlelight in the studio accommodation, slept very little, and only felt the need to get 

the fuck out of there fast on the last night. The spirits had not ever bothered me, other than low 

drama moral support, but I was informed that they had heard enough and it was time to move on; 

plus I had a gig in Ireland. 

When I was a boy the plant we boys called a fern was code for vagina, and to this day I love fern 

plants. In my heart the vagina is almost everything, and almost everything else could be summed 

up in what cock and seed have to offer; and everything else? The love of the father, dead or alive, 

the pain of too much pleasure, till death do us part, the voice of another song man from the other 

side, with or without God, Teri and the Possibilities, where ever you may be, the smell of sex in the 

air, seduced, slain, on my knees in prayer, sucking at the only thing that matters, my own personal 

Meret Oppenheim, I am Man Ray and I want you and to be all the way inside you, the cameras whirring 

as we put some elbow grease into the scene, the audience watching us in the dark.Recorded in 

Los Angeles, London and Brooklyn, NonStopErotik was produced by Eric Drew Feldman and Black 

Francis, and features 10 original songs, plus a cover of the Flying Burrito Brothers track “Wheels”. 

JACKIE LEVEN 

GOTHIC ROAD 

Cooking Vinyl 


711297491920 


THE SCENE: - A large meeting at Cooking Vinyl (CV) to discuss GOTHIC ROAD – JACKIE LEVEN’S 

first new studio album since 2008’s LOVERS AT THE GUN CLUB. STUART (new CV label manager, 

his first meeting with JL) – “Er, can I start by asking Jackie what the album title, GOTHIC ROAD 

actually means, if anything?” JACKIE – “Well, we all walk two roads – the Royal Road, and the Road of 

Poverty and Death, however we imagine these roads to be. When these two roads meet, then we are 

walking on the GOTHIC ROAD.” STUART (doubtfully) – “Does it make any difference which direction 

you walk on the GOTHIC ROAD?” JACKIE – “None at all”. STUART (still doubtfully) – “Is this all true?” 

MARTIN GOLDSCHMIDT (CV supremo, without looking up from doodling) – “It is now ...” 

GOTHIC ROAD opens with the choral sound of GHOST VOICES OF THE KURSK – three young Russian men 

from the northern seaboard city of Murmansk, all of whose brothers died in that Russian submarine tragedy. This 

is closely followed by the sound of a German sat nav lady guiding JACKIE’s tour bus out of the city of Hamburg 

last year. And so the stage is set for twelve strong tales from the GOTHIC ROAD – powerful stories from one who 

has walked the road for nearly sixty years. Many of the songs are at once mystical but also locked in the daily grind 

of emotional survival. In keeping with his longstanding creative association with mavericks and outlaws, (David 

Thomas, Johnny Dowd etc) JACKIE collaborates here with fabled English renegade RALPH McTELL. RALPH 

supplies the yearning second lead vocal, plus Gibson acoustic guitars on CORNELIUS WHALEN, a song about 

the man who was the last of the Jarrow marchers left alive when JACKIE wrote the song – the Jarrow March** 

being a superb example of the reality of the GOTHIC ROAD. Elsewhere on the album, JACKIE fantasises about 

the creative dynamo that is actress TILDA SWINTON, hides in his hotel mini bar from the tyranny of endless touring, 

sings a song written by the original punk poet PATRIK FITZGERALD, (SHADOW OF A MAN) and welcomes 

on board a guest recording by his co-producer, the great Welsh singer DAVID WRENCH (ISLAND). The album 

abounds with GOTHIC ROAD-ness, as in the coda of the song GOTHIC ROAD itself, where the royal road pomp 

of HENRY PRIESTMAN’s massed plucked cellos is counter-pointed by JOHN ROBERT’S skeletal spoons playing, 

casting a cold eye on the poverty-stricken end of the street. Or in the lush celestial choir voices on LAST OF THE 

BADMEN as the anti hero at the end of his personal road pleads in a PARTON-esque refrain – ‘please don’t kill 

me just because you can’. The music on GOTHIC ROAD provides cast iron proof that the creative phenomenon 

that is JACKIE LEVEN is not simply continuing to go from strength to strength, but is close to passing out of sight 

on a road that others fear to tread.

Et av vårens mest etterspurte album! 

If you think you know Caribou, think again. Dan Snaith’s new album, Swim is the sound of 

the musical glass ceiling being blown away. 

If there is a link to previous album Andorra, it would be in the ravishing explosions of sound 

pulsing through album closer ‘Niobe’. A continuum of sorts leads us to 2010, but that finale 

gives mere hints as to the future Caribou. From the opening effervescent gambol of ‘Odessa’ 

to the glorious odyssey of ‘Jamelia’, it’s crystal clear that Caribou has made a massive leap 

forwards, upwards and sideways. 

Dan’s latest recording sees him getting busy in the basement with some expertly 

constructed, rave-tinged sounds that sing with soul. But that’s not all. As a songwriter 

of considerable standing, Dan has not subsumed his uniquely recognisable touch in 

an orgy of technical bliss – although, there is plenty of euphoria in the musical alchemy 

on offer. From Dan’s perspective, he says, “The most important thing for me with 

this record was finding my own sonic vocabulary. That’s why I’m proud of this record.” 

Swim is full of brightly textured, rapturous gems that gleam with astonishing production 

– and then wrenches at your heart with soulful, thoughtful reveries on the passing 

of time, family history and the breakdown of relationships. “There are songs about 

growing old in a relationship, about divorce and loneliness in old age but the lyrics 

are generally pretty abstract sketches of what’s going on in the situation in my head.” 

Ready for the new Caribou future?

“I wanted to make a futuristic pop record, to reach out to the kids of the future. It is what I 

imagine their more highly-evolved pop might sound like: shiny soul music with robots and 

humans singing together. We are sending a pop music message through time.” 

So says The Apples in stereo / Elephant 6 collective mastermind Robert Schneider. 

The Apples’ new album and seventh studio effort, Travellers in Space and Time is the 

follow-up to their critically acclaimed hit album New Magnetic Wonder and their second 

release in association with Elijah Wood’s Simian Records. 

Travellers finds the studio-obsessed indie rockers continuing the hook-heavy pop mastery they 

achieved on New Magnetic Wonder, an album that spawned performances on Conan O’Brien 

and Stephen Colbert, along with numerous commercial placements (Pepsi, Samsung, New 

Balance) and even a performance of hit single “Energy” by the contestants of American Idol. 

Well over a year in the making, the new material recasts the Apples’ signature pop sounds 

in chrome-plated futurism, all while adding a dance-driven vibe channeling ELO, Barry Gibb, 

Wild Honey-era Beach Boys and Off The Wall-era Michael Jackson.

One of contemporary musics true originals, the inimitable songs of Nick Drake are often difficult to 

imagine having been influenced by anyone but himself. But as with all true musical giants, Drakes 

compositions and style were informed by a diverse range of musicians, songwriters and performers who 

came before. From the sublime finger-picking and glorious tunes of the wholly under-rated Bert Jansch 

to the country blues styles of Big Bill Broonzy and Reverend Gary Davis - via Donovan, The Yardbirds 

and Miles Davis, he listened to all of them and many others besides. The inspiration these mavericks 

provided motivated the often manically depressed Nick Drake into writing , recording and, on the very 

rare occasion, performing some of the most beautiful music ever written albeit, tragically, the process 

would contribute in no small way to his untimely death at the age of just 26. This compilation traces 

the roots of Nick Drakes astonishing music and features all of the above mentioned artists and many 

others with 24 superb and moving tracks in all. 24 tracks which now can be appreciated all together on 

this collection ,enabling the appreciation of where this mysterious and legendary figure found much of 

his musical muse and hopefully, for a man often tortured by his own existence, at least a little comfort.

JOHN GRANT 

THE QUEEN OF DENMARK 

Bella Union 

BELLACD 235 

0602527338583 




Everyone has a favorite band or singer they reckon is subject to criminal neglect. That John Grant’s effortlessly 

rich, expansive baritone, couched in typically heartbreaking, lush melody, hasn’t found a wider audience indeed 

drives his fans to consider a crime. But no longer. Because Grant’s first solo album, following three undervalued 

studio albums (and one similar covers compilation) fronting The Czars, is so undeniably great that the world 

will surely listen. It’s a record of gravitas and grace, of FM melody magic laced with raw emotional bleeding. It 

asks why relationships are roulette and love is hell in a last-ditch attempt at self-improvement and atonement 

after a decade of alcohol and cocaine dependency. It’s not overstating the case to say – as John has himself in 

a recent issue of MOJO - that he’s contemplated suicide. And yet there is redemption in its exquisite grooves. 

And on top, to further the album’s brilliance, Grant’s backing band on the album are Denton, Texas’ mightiest – 

MIDLAKE - contributing their most empathic ‘70s-style soft-rock know-how. Put simply, Queen Of Denmark is 

the record Grant’s been waiting his whole life to make. Queen Of Denmark was recorded in Denton in two fourmonth 

stints – July-October 2008 and May-July 2009 - in the studio downtime while Midlake were painstakingly 

recording their own album (The Courage Of Others). Every Midlake member chipped in but Paul Alexander 

and guitarist Eric Pulido, who co-produced the album with John, are on every track alongside drummer McKenzie 

Smith. John reserves special mention for Paul’s basslines. “They were outrageous, off the fuckin’ hook. 

Some evenings, we couldn’t stop smiling and laughing because I was so excited about his work.” The whole 

Denton experience, he adds, “was really uplifting. It was emotional and painful too but Midlake believed in me 

and told me, ‘people need to hear you, and we’re going to make it happen.” Queen Of Denmark moves through 

simple piano settings (the lovestruck ballad ‘Caramel’ and the intriguing Scott Joplin-meets-Beatles ragtime of 

‘Silver Platter’), via an infusion of period-perfect synths (the rockier ‘Sigourney’, a sultry ‘It’s Easier’) that epitomise 

the lonely mood. There’s flute from Midlake frontman Tim Smith on the dreamiest cut (and there is stiff 

competition) ‘Marz’, and velvet strings (‘Dreams’, which imagines Scott Walker influenced by Patsy Cline, and 

the darker drama ‘Leopard’). There are allusions to higher beings (‘Outer Space’) and to human weaknesses 

(‘JC’). There is pure longing regret in the opening ‘TC And Honeybear’ and bitterly sarcastic, amped-up anger 

in the magnificent title track finale. Pain, hope, fear, regret, anger, self-flagellation and self-discovery - Queen 

of Denmark has it all. 

ASIA 

OMEGA 

Frontiers 


8024391045527 


www.originalasia.com 

ASIA, rock’s first important super-group of the 80s - featuring members from Yes, Emerson Lake & Palmer, 

King Crimson and The Buggles – will release Omega, its highly anticipated new album of original material. 

The record is due in the spring of 2010 on Frontiers Records. Geoffrey Downes, Steve Howe, Carl 

Palmer and John Wetton, the four original Asia members, reunited in 2006, twenty-three years after 

all four had last played together. The much publicised reunion resulted in highly successful world tours, 

a double live LP and DVD (entitled Fantasia: Live In Tokyo) and an acclaimed studio album Phoenix in 

2008 which debuted at number 73 in the Billboard charts in the USA and entered the top 100 in several 

European countries. The reunion came to celebrate the 25 th anniversary of the band, but morphed itself 

into an ongoing endeavour. In 2008, they returned with the first new studio album, Phoenix, which had 

been strongly influenced by the fusion of talents and heritages that the band excited the music world with 

back in 1982. Omega shows a new renaissance for this amazing group of musicians, which seem to live 

up to a joie-de-vivre that stands the test of time. Begun during the summer 2009, the writing and recording 

sessions of Omega, immediately showed inspiration and good feelings. “We were looking to create 

something different with Omega,” says keyboardist Geoff Downes. “Of course, the sound of the 4 band 

members of Asia will always have a certain hallmark when we play together. That’s a given. But we approached 

the song writing with a mind to getting a degree of variety into these compositions. Hence, you 

will hear areas of textures where arguably we have never gone before.” Adds lead vocalist/bassist/guitarist 

John Wetton: “Asia is an English prog-rock band with a pop edge, always has been, and hopefully always 

will be. Accessible, melodic, anthemic songs with great playing, luxuriating in a bed of lush orchestration, 

with lyrics that strike a sympathetic chord in even the most cynical heart. There you have it, Omega is 

a themed album in Asia’s fine tradition, without the millstone of a concept.” As with the most popular of 

ASIA releases, the cover art specifically designed for the project by acclaimed artist Roger Dean. The 

concept of the title (Omega), and the ‘Year of the Tiger’ referencing of the cover art underline the fact that 

this is real Asia. John Wetton explains: “The title ‘Omega’, as any fan of the band will tell you, is ‘very 

Asia’ (as is the album, by the way). It no more means ‘final’ than ‘Alpha’ means ‘the first’ (which it wasn’t). 

It’s a great sounding/looking word, and a bookend to ‘Alpha’. In many ways, musically and conceptually, 

the two albums share commonality.”

0656191008129 





Prosthetic Records is proud to unveil the debut album ‘The Descent’ from Norway’s MANTRIC. 

Formed in 2007 in Oslo, Norway from the ashes of metal visionaries, EXTOL, MANTRIC takes 

this pioneering songwriting approach to new, epic heights. 

Fusing a unique, distinctly Scandinavian take on rich, challenging metal and modern punk with 

a powerful progressive edge, MANTRIC recorded “The Descent” in Norway, with studio guru 

Tue Madsen handling mixing and mastering duties. Prosthetic Records quickly recognized 

that something rather special was developing and are now very happy to have MANTRIC 

as part of their diverse roster. 

MANTRIC are the first worldwide signing of a European band to Prosthetic Records and 

vocalist and guitarist Ole Sveen commented, “Our first album using the Mantric-name does to 

our ears deserve to get out to lovers of hard music all over the world, and Prosthetic makes 

this possible. 

Our music embraces creativity and originality outside the limits of narrow genres, so it suits 

us fine to deal with a label that also values this. This is a release that is both accessible and 

original, catchy and complex at the same time, and we can’t wait to get it out!”. 

MANTRIC will showcase “The Descent” with a selection of gigs across Norway around the 

release date before embarking on UK, European and North American tours to support 

the album throughout 2010. 

“The Descent” is truly urgent music - just as great, challenging heavy music should be. Enjoy.

locations during the European shows in the summer of 2009. 

Alive In Europe! is filled with sweltering live songs including all the band’s classics such as 

“Modern Day Cowboy”, “Signs”, “What You Give”, “Little Suzi” and songs from the latest release 

such as the single “I Wanna Live”, the album title track and more.

CLINGING TO A SCHEME 

Labrador 

LAB 105 

733223300105 




The long wait is finally over! The Radio Department’s ”Clining to a scheme” is without doubt 

this year’s most eagerly anticipated Swedish indie pop album. It’s been four long years, but 

a simple press on Play and you’ll know it’s been worth every second. “Clinging to a scheme” 

combines the best components from their previous albums “Lesser matters” and “Pet grief” 

with soul guitars, P-funk, cut/paste-beats and 70’s futuristic orchestra. Breathtaking! 

The Radio Dept. arrived with their album “Lesser matters” in 2003 which is commonly referred 

to as the most important Swedish indie pop album of the 21st century. It was embraced by 

press and fans all over the world. They had no less than two “Single of the week” in the NME 

and it, not surprisingly, ended up Top10 on the NME’s “Album of the year”-list. In 2006 Sophia 

Coppola chose to feature three of their songs in the film Marie Antoinette that further helped 

them to achieve worldwide recognition and the same year the chart-topping and critically 

acclaimed album “Pet grief” was released. In the end of 2009 “Lesser matters” came to be 

one out two Swedish albums to appear on NMEs Greatest Albums of the Decade-list. 

“This album is a miniature classic - here’s hoping indie snobbery doesn’t condemn it to the mists 

of time (The Top 100 Greatest Albums of the Decade)” NME 

The Radio Department’s releases have been referred to as The perfect mix between Saint 

Etienne and early The Jesus and Mary Chain and The best songs Pet Shop Boys never 

wrote and the album you’d hoped My Bloody Valentine did after ”Loveless”. And perhaps 

both comparisons makes sense. In a way. But the truth is that Sweden’s No. 1 alternative 

pop geniuses only sound like one band - themselves. 

The band will do a handful of gig in May this year and a longer tour is expected in the fall of 

2010. 

JESSE MALIN & THE ST. MARKS SOCIAL 

LOVE IT TO LIFE 

SideOneDummy 

SD 1415 / SD 1415-1 

0603967141528 / 0603967141511 


After three critically acclaimed solo records, dozens of world tours and TV appearances, Jesse Malin found himself back in 

New York City questioning his next move. From his days fronting seminal hardcore trio Heart Attack and glam punks D Generation, 

then seven years on the road as a solo artist, Malin had cultivated a devout fan base. He’d shared stages with everyone 

from The White Stripes to Counting Crows, The Hold Steady to Lucinda Williams, but felt like he was losing the plot. 

Malin contemplated going back to school, becoming a standup comedian or a Las Vegas wedding DJ, and even 

started work on a documentary film about DC hardcore Rastafarians The Bad Brains. For over a year he didn’t play 

or record. When asked by a Hollywood screenwriter to pen songs for a film about author J.D. Salinger, Malin — a fan 

of Catcher in the Rye and other Salinger works — traveled to Cornish, NH hoping to speak to the famous recluse. 

In typical punk-rock fashion, instead of getting the interview, Malin landed at the local precinct for trespassing and 

was released only after the cops watched his video duet with Bruce Springsteen for “Broken Radio” on YouTube 

and were convinced he was just a writer doing research. Though he never met Salinger (who passed away this past 

January), Malin made the most of the experience by writing “The Archer” and “Lonely at Heart”—two songs that 

would make him want to work again and become the basis for his new album. 

Over the summer of 2009, in the basement of Avenue A watering hole Hi-Fi, the songs came forth. Malin, with 

impresario Don DiLego, drummer Randy Schrager, guitarist Matt Hogan, and bassist/DJ Tommy USA, worked with 

his newly formed band to bash out an album’s worth of gritty anthems, and The St. Marks Social was born. A solid 

band, but one with an open door to Malin’s community of musician friends - longtime partner in crime Ryan Adams, 

pop singer Mandy Moore, fellow label mate Brian Fallon, and former bandmates from D Generation Howie Pyro 

and Danny Sage - the Social is a group effort to keep the P.M.A. Says Malin, “To me, rock ‘n’ roll is an exorcism that 

begins every night when the sun goes down, the music starts playing, and the spirits start flowing. It helps to say 

things in public over dirty microphones. It’s a way to spit out the poison.” 

When Jesse met producer Ted Hutt (Lucero, Flogging Molly, The Gaslight Anthem) one drunken night at a local bar, 

their talk of making a record fast, loose, and raw, was the beginning of Hutt’s quest to create a record that would 

encompass Malin’s roots and evolution—from hardcore thrasher to punk/folk singer-songwriter. The album’s basic 

tracks were laid in three days at Greenpoint, Brooklyn’s Mission Studios, and the rest at Sonic Youth’s Think Tank 

Studios in Hoboken, NJ. Filled with the characters Malin does best—messengers and misanthropes, hipsters and 

hypocrites—and as always, his constant themes of redemption, nightlife, heartbreak, and survival, LOVE IT TO 

LIFE—a sentiment taken from a ticket stub Joe Strummer autographed for Jesse—was built with desperate optimism 

that shouts in gang vocals that no matter how bad it gets, you’re never alone.

FORHÅND 3. MAI 

Booka Shade will release their fourth artist album More! this May in a joint venture between Get 

Physical Music and Cooperative Music. Regarded by many as the best live electronic act in the 

world, Booka Shade have enjoyed a meteoric rise since establishing themselves with their breakthrough 

album ‘Memento’ in 2005. Worldwide club hits such as ‘Body Language’, ‘In The White 

Rooms’ and ‘Charlotte’ followed, as well as their second album ‘Movements’, which is regarded as 

one of the last decade’s classic electronic albums. 5 years on and with the release of their fourth LP, 

the duo prove they are still hungry for More! “The album is called More!. More refined production, 

more multi-layered atmospheres, more emotion.” Explains Arno Kammermeier (one half of Booka 

Shade), “We wanted this album to be more energetic with strong grooves and of course the typical 

Booka Shade melodies and atmospheres that we love. The album takes you through every stage 

of the night out; the excitement before you go out, the party, the late, late night, a bit of paranoia.... 

and then the sunny morning of a new day.” Across the album, Arno, and the other half of Booka 

Shade, Walter Merziger delve deeper than ever before, delivering what has to be their most dynamic 

and accomplished album to date, which is saying something for Booka Shade! For the first time on 

any of their albums they’ve collaborated with guest vocalists, sharing the limelight with electronic 

pioneers Yello and Get Physical favourite Chelonis R. Jones. “We’re so excited about 2010 and 

taking the new album on the road. We’ve been working on these songs in the studio for the last 18 

months and now is the time to hear them loud!” Arno continues, “The world tour will start in February 

with us headlining the Future Music Festival in Australia, followed by club shows in key cities 

throughout Europe and a short trip to the U.S. to introduce the album Stateside. I can safely say we 

have a big summer of festivals in front of us too!”. Indeed they do, with the full live schedule to be announced 

very soon, including (for the first time ever) a fully live UK tour, taking in all the major cities 

across the country (see below for a preview of confirmed dates). Until then, please log on to Booka 

Shade’s website to download Regenerate, one of the stand-out tracks from the album that will not 

only delight fans but also give the world a clear sign of what’s to come with More! 

HARVEY MILK 

A SMALL TURN OF HUMAN KINDNESS 

Hydra Head 

HH 666206 

0634457525627 

FORHÅND 18. MAI 

Harvey Milk’s “A Small Turn of Human Kindness,” is the difference between watching a movie 

like Irreversible vs. watching a movie like Independence Day. Both good films, however the first 

stimulates a foreign mixture of emotions that require you to sleep it off, whereas the latter 

concludes with you feeling comfortable with the fact that you’re a lazy, wasteful, culturally 

sequestered American who has sat through this fucking movie way too many times in his/her 

life! So, I think you get the idea, “A Small Turn of Human Kindness,” is as dense and as heavy 

temperamentally as it is musically. The seven songs so subtly bleed together that the listener 

has no choice, but to view the entire album as a linear orchestration with a singular ebb and 

flow. A rising and falling action, refined to hell and back. And so, all of these things lead me to 

believe that any and all true Harvey Milk fans will eventually argue this record as the band’s 

finest work. Or at least the vinyl version will become the quintessential mantle-piece for a 

generation of suburban children slumming it in the inner city you know who you are! 

BIO: 

Harvey Milk is a sludge/noise rock outfit formed in the early 1990’s from savannah, 

Georgia. Harvey Milk disbanded around 1997. Due to increased popularity while the group was 

no longer active, the band reformed (around 2008). Hydra Head released the bands first new 

record after the hiatus, “Life the Best Game in Town....” “A Small Turn of Human Kindness” is 

title of the first track on the band’s first proper release... and their seventh proper full-length 

release
