Sweet mother of Bowie
He currently is not speaking to Nicky Wire, as the dress wearing, shark-grinned Manic Street Preacher refused his offer of a 'quick one backstage' and called him a shirtlifter before tossing his feather boa around his shoulders and flouncing off with a bottle of Babycham.Am vrea noi... am vrea noi

Kiss and swallow
And I who thought only bands like Strokes or Horrors got asked such question... Alas, I was mistaken!
Sean: One. Richey. Larking - it wasn’t on the mouth. On the cheek. I think it was one of his drunken malaises, helping him stand up in a friendly way. It was a very stubbly sort of affair. A brotherly thing.
James: None. I can’t even think of kissing Sean when I was young. I’d need a couple of telephone directories to get to Nick’s level, and to kiss Sean would be incest. I saw Richey kissing a bloke once. Not one of the band. I think it was an experiment.
Nicky: I haven’t kissed any on the lips. I kissed Richey on the cheek. We’re a very touchy band but not a kissy band. Very touchy. I mean, I slept with Richey for six months, in the same bed, when we used to live with Philip [their manager]. Downstairs was the couch and the floor, which everyone wanted, and James and Sean, and me and Richey, would swap alternatively. Upstairs was a double bed, which was a bit planes trains and automobiles sometimes: ‘That’s a really soft pillow my hand’s in’ ‘That’s not a pillow!’ Richey would just get blotto and pass out, really. So it’d be an incredible smell of vodka in the morning. You know the way it kind of pours out of your skin?

Also, pentru toti cei loviti de evenimentele recente care nu stiu cum sa mai boceasca (desi cu o saptamana in urma nu mai stiau cum sa scuipe pe personajul cu pricina -cel al carui nume nu il vom rosti), de la mine pentru ei si familia lor... aceasta inregistrare.

We also do speak politics for you to hear
Creierul meu de gasca imbibat cu o bere la pranz si-ar dori sa scriu despre cat de bun e Duff McKagan. La 44 de ani. Si cum Slash o suge and always has (he's ugly, ugly, i tell ya...) .. dar nu voi face asta. Am si eu limitele mele. In schimb...
....
Maine am examen la materia numita Politologie. Politics, parties and all that jazz. Ceea ce e chiar foarte funky. I like rants about how American politics are shiat, about how UE will fuck us all. Imi place Generation Terrorists de la Manics ca se inflameaza pe el (pe atunci) pustii aia si o ard in sloganuri naive (desi nu's de acord cu unele faze ... dar ce conteaza). Ma extaziez cand dau de o carte cu anarhismu' si variile lui forme la BCU (aka Biblioteca Central Universitara... la care imi place sa merg ca este multe carti acolo). Rad cu lacrimi cand Raymond Aron face misto de intelighenta britanica/franceza in contextul socialism vs. liberalism. Injur la tot pasu' legile stupide si imi zic ce futut e statu' blablabla. Ma uit over and over again la 'Rude Boy'. Ma apuc si scriu referate despre politics in discurul Manics. Dar cand vine vorba de invatat la materia Politologie... ba, nu pot. Ma ia cu cascat, imi zic 'trai-te-ar, ce tre sa stiu io sistemul de guvernare in Elvetia' (ceea ce nu inseamna ca nu ma iau de fazele cu 'consociationalismul' lor si pluripartidismul dus la extrem..). Ma intreb de ce tre' sa stiu ca exista 6 tipuri de sisteme hibrid care rezulta din variile combinatii intre cel parlamentar si cel prezidential (din care oricum vreo 5 nu se pot pune in practica...). Din astea. Ma pierd in detalii, pentru ca mai stiu si eu ceva pe ici pe colo, si nu pot sa invat. Asa ca stau si ma intreb... nu pot sa o ard azi si sa ii povestesc de Nozick, Chomsky, Orwell, Joe Strummer si Manics stimatului domnului Parvulescu? Oare ma pica daca fac asta?

I like me some slap bass
Da. Este despre basisti postul de fata. Pentru ca mie imi plac. Retarzi cum sunt. Mai mult decat orice alt membru din formatie. In general, isi baga pufa (sau tiara pufoasa, dupa caz) in tot. Uneori, scot cate una pe sistem 'I understand The Buzz, but why the cocks'. Dar fara ei/ale lor instrumente melodia n-ar fi ce e. Cum ar suna 'Archives of Pain' fara notele cantate de Wire (desi nu si scrise de el)? Cum or fi fost Rage Against The Machine fara Morello? Ar mai fi fost Talking Heads the funkiest white band in town fara basu' Tinei Weymouth? Ce ar fi fost Joy Division fara Peter Hook sau Gang Of Four fara Dave Allen? Hell, cam tot ce misca in post-punk ar fi fost o laba fara basisti... (yes, i've said. take it or leave it).
Si totusi, toata lumea (in frunte cu Rolling 'We-use-1-year-olds-to-write-our-reviews' Stone) makes the fap-fap sound numa' cand aude de chitaristi/bateristi. Nu s-au gandit nici pana in ziua de azi sa faca un top decent cu the greatest bass players ever. Zic decent in sensul 'se iau cativa muzicieni si cativa critici, se baga intr-o camera cu o foaie si un pix - eventual cate una/unu pentru fiecare - si li se cere sa scrie basistii lor preferati'. (Maynard James Keenan probabil s-ar trece pe el...dar asta e alta poveste). Evident ca, dupa publicare, ne-am inflama toti ca nu fu ala de il iubim noi mai mult mai sus in top. Pardon, mint, NME a facut un top cu basisti prin 72... adica acum 37 de ani. Desi pare socant, zic ca lucrurile s-au mai schimbat. Si totusi, se fac toti ca ploua cand vine vorba de basisti. Ba mai mult, un fost basist injura statutul de basist. (Javra de SIR McCartney zicea prin 2007 ca... citez, sa imi bag io ceva in el, "bassists are the fat guys who stand at the back".) Singurul din industrie care pare a fi entuziasmat de basisti (si ii pune sa cante si sa se rupa in figuri pe albumele pe care le produce) e domnul Steve 'I-wrote-a-20-page-essay-about-how-shitty-the-industry-is' Albini.
Sa nu credeti ca n-am dat cotrobait pa gugle. Si inca cum. Mai aveam nitel si dadea peste articole din anii 60. Tot ce am gasit a fost o referinta la Bass Guitar Magazine care a cerut cititorilor sa voteze "The Greatest Bass Player Who Has Ever Lived" prin 2006 (recunoasteti, nu va asteptati chiar de la o revista despre basses sa faca asa ceva) si topul asta. (daca dati click pe 'Best musicians', s-ar putea sa aveti un moment de extaz cand veti vedea ca e ales cate un basist pentru fiecare an din 55 incoace, dar va va trece cand veti vedea ca pe 2008 au fost doi candidati la titlul de best bassist si fara numar,fara numar in rest).
Si cand te gandesti ca all it took was one link on fark.com to get me going...
Va las cu un bas that's pure evil...

Tonight we beg the question
Teoria pe care vreau sa v-o prezint in continuare poate soca pe multi. De fapt, cu siguranta o va face. Mai ceva ca niste versuri cum ar fi ‘He’s a boy/you want a girl/so tear off his cock/tie his hair in bunches/fuck him, call him Rita if you want’. Recunosc. Imi place la nebunie sa sochez.
Se intampla prin 1989. Un semiotician pe numele sau Leonard Meyer avansa in cartea sa ‘Style and Music’ o teoria re-vo-lu-tio-na-ra. Cica, CICA compozitia muzicala ar fi influentata de istorie si ideologie. In mare zic. Nu vrea sa intru in detalii. Stiu, e deja prea mult pentru o singura fraza si deja simt cum mi-am pierdut o parte dintre cititori.
In 2007, un adept al acestui Darwin al semioticii muzicale ne spune ca teoria respectiva e cam ignorata, dom’ne. Stiu ce veti spune. Ar fi si revoltator sa fie considerate relevanta!!! Adica, cum? Sa ascultam toti nebunii? Ar fi ca si cum am accepta evolutionismul nebunului alalalt! Dar va rog, lasati-ma sa termin. Amicul nostru ne prezinta cartea si ne implora sa ii dam o sansa. E esential pentru o analiza completa a unei compozitii muzicale sa cunoastem putina istorie, niste ideologii, niste concepte filosofice. Si, desi pare surprinzator, am fost convertita. Acum, si eu cred ca contextul in care a fost creata o piesa muzicala si ideologiile celor ce au scris-o sunt extrem de importante.
Meanwhile, in another world, Legs McNeil, Jon Savage, Nick Kent and Simon Reynolds are all backslapping Meyer and music semioticians in general. The music press is cheering!
Also, as vrea sa primesc o explicatie de ce toti semioticienii pizdii ma-sii, de la Nattiez la Meyer si Barthes s-au blocat toti in muzica clasica… De ce Savage nu s-a apucat sa faca un studiu de caz cu instrumente ale semioticii pe Sex Pistols spre exemplu? Nu ca imi era mai usor sa fac referatu’ ma-sii acuma?

What The Actual Fuck?
Domnul Steve Albini probabil mi-a citit statusurile disperate de pe Facebook si a hotarat sa scoata din seif singura copie a noului album Manics (sunt ferm convinsa ca Albini era ultimul care mai avea grija de copia aia, cause the Manics are a bunch of culture sluts). Bref, albumul a leak-uit luni seara, marti de dimineata... cu 15 minute inainte de a pleca de acasa, am dat si eu de el (ce ziceam de statusurile alea that reeked desperation?). What followed? Pai, am plecat cu 20 de min mai tarziu decat ar fi trebuit, mi-am uitat portofelul si am intarziat la ore. Ah, si era sa ma calce o masina in timp ce ascultam Journal For Plague Lovers la player. Azi, a doua masina.. am ajuns la timp la seminar, but hey! Era sa ma uit pe acasa.
Problema e ca nu inteleg ..DE CE??? Adica, albumul e sublim, superb, divin ... Peeled Apples si Jackie Collins Exsitential Question Time deja le stiu pe dinafara (Jackie are vreo 500 de palys pe mah Latsfm...pfooooa). This Joke Sport Severed e perfetion (those chords, those drums, the way the voice blends in perfectly... aaaa...m-au omorat). Marlon JD are un beat demential... and I feel like dancing whenever I hear it. Wiliam's Last Words makes me weep like a little kid watching Bambi's mom get killed... Pe sistem: AAAA!! RICHEY BEING EMOTIONAL ABOUT... STUFF!!! AND WIRE SINGING A SONG WITH RICHEY'S LYRICS!!! OMG, WIRE'S VOICE!!! AND IT READS LIKE A POTENTIAL SUICIDE NOTE!!BAAAAAAAAW. (acum mi-am dat seama, melodia care urmaeaza incepe cu 'I am not dead' - *start freaky fan mode*Richey, guys, ce vreti sa ne spuneti???*end freaky fan mode*). Dar la o adica, it's still what Bradfield would write... si pe acoluri sunt asemanari intre melodii de pe Know Yr Enemy (care a fost un album foarte bun, stfu Wire!) sau baaaw... melodii mai vechi, u get the point. And yet, here I am... Going completely mental about this album...
What the actual fuck?
oh, wait
o.O
I think I see what Wire did there cu that 'It's The Holy Bible pt.2'. DAMN YOU, WIRE!! (desi nu e, nici ca versuri... *thinks of William's, stars crying like the obsessed bitch she is* si nici ca instrumental... ar fi si stupid)
Ca bonus, I even love the devil blabla *starts crying*
I have this essay something-something for tomorrow... and I HAVE to do it... and yet, I'm just listening to Journal... they've ruined mah life

Beautiful, Dirty, Rich
This is a masterpiece... Sublime indeed. And Primary Colours is beautiful. Everything NME said in that preview and more. It ain't the old Horrors. It's all the blablabla about evolving as a band... and it's so frickin' great. And when i think they're what? 22-23 years old... Heck, and they've done this... Pfooooa, forget 'i'm drepressed I'm 21 and have done nothing with mah life'... This is instant suicide for yrs truly in MPEG format... aw, pretty babies!!!
In Horrors related news...it seems them ho's and the big old fat culture ho's of Manics have done something together... A sex tape? kekeke

I'd love to hear about Jesus! What's he up to now?
"Joshua's ministry was three years of preaching, sometimes three times a day, and although there were some high and low points, I could never remember the sermons word for word, but here's the gist of almost every sermon I ever heard Joshua give.
You should be nice to people, even creeps.
And if you:
a) believed that Joshua was the Son of God (and)
b) he had come to save you from sin (and)
c) acknowledged the Holy Spirit within you (became as a little child, he would say) (and)
d) didn't blaspheme the Holy Ghost (see c)
then you would:
e) live forever
f) someplace nice
g) probably heaven
However, if you:
h) sinned (and/or)
i) were a hypocrite (and/or)
j) valued things over people (and)
k) didn't do a, b, c, and d,
then you were:
l) fucked"
(Christopher Moore - Lamb: The Gospel According To Biff, Christ's Childhood Friend)
... have a little sense of humour, please...

Of cheapness and marketing schemes.
Pe langa faptul ca am o problema cu America Apperal din punct de vedere estetic (pe scurt, nu imi plac hainele lor... mi se par common, boring si lipsite de that spark a piece of clothing needs to help you stand out...), acum am o problema si cu prostia oamenilor in charge .. Adica, cum domne? Unde te crezi tu sa folosesti imagine lui Woody Allen (sau a oricui altcuiva) in one of yr ads asa randomly. Fara o discutie in prealabil. Ca si cum Converse ar fi trantit pozele alea din campania lor 'Connected' pe un panou si asta ar fi fost. Va dati seama ce scandal ar fi fost pe capu lor? Endorsing? Asta e un termen sublim folosit de Allen in fata caruia reprezentantii AA ar trebui sa se cace pe ei de frica. Think about it... Nu imi vreau fata asociata cu firma voastra. Poate ideologia mea nu se potriveste cu valorile promovate de voi. Ca si cum Nike ar folosi imaginea lui Chomsky in one of their ads... sa vezi acolo caterinca. It wasn't cheap to bring Allen's sex life? Asta fiindca vor sa demonstreze ca imagine lui Allen e deja fucked up si ei sunt a bunch of frickin' angels? Acum, poate vorbesc ca un fan al operei lui Allen, dar nu ne intereseaza pe toti (noi, astia cu scaunu la cap, care nu's innebuniti dupa Dorobanti et all) mai mult artistul aici si nu cu cine se fute persoana Allen? Oare aici nu e vorba de THE ARTIST? Nu el isi prezinta credintele si valorile prin intermediul filmelor/cartilor... si voi n-ati folosit o imagine dintr-un film al lui Allen nu una cu el de mana cu Soon-Yi? Nu e vorba aici de arta si nu de viata privata? Si acum sincer, cand un critic face o recenzie de pentru un film de-al lui Allen sau cand un om se duce sa vada un film se gandeste cum s-a futut Allen cu fii-sa adoptiva? Tare m-ar amuza ca avocatii domnului (oh, behave) Allen sa aduca in dicsutie si ei (asa, pentru o caterinca mica) viata sexuala a directoriilor companiei si a celor de la firma de advertising... Sa vad cat de cheap sunt...

Evil Dildo
Vorbeam odata cu un prieten despre One Night Only ... eu: 'they're like a boyband just that they have instruments' my friend: 'normal, doar n-or avea dildos'... nu, zice un om normal, ar fi imposbil...
Asculandu-i pe White Lies, realizez ca se poate sa fii si o formatie cu dildos and no intruments... muzica oricum e facuta de Editors... Da,stiu, Death si inca niscavai melodioare de pe album sunt decente... Death chiar iti ramane in cap si stii ca e a lor (ceea ce, venind de la White Lies e chiar de admirat, le-as da un Mercury ptr asta)... Dar 'Unfinished Business' e de-a dreptul horror (sa n-aud ca suna a Nick Cave ca's capabila de murder...)...'A Place To Hide' e probabil furata din cosul de gunoi al alora de la Editors (tema recurenta a acestui post... yes, yes indeed)... ca se nu mai vorbesc de faptul ca, de fapt, toate piesele sunt variatiuni pe aceeasi tema..Le dau totusi un punct pentru versuri... care's chiar bune...In rest.....
.....I'll be in my bunk, listening to Alice In Chains...
