Coming up beyond belief...

....sau cum the usage of acid is no longer requiered




In alta ordine de idei, am attendat (asta e pe sistem 'zborul celor de la AB4 a fost cancelat') ieri concertul baietilor de la Editors... Front row lejer, ei au rupt, vocalu' e nitel scapat de la balamuc, am urlat, ma usturau mainile de la aplaudat. Dar dupa ce am iesit, ma simteam ca si cand nici nu fusesem la un concert. Nu tu stare de euforie, nu tu hyper mood, nimic. Parca a lipsit ceva. Sad, huh? Maybe I'm just getting old.

I surrender, mah vision has blurred

Horrors+ Manics = HEARTSHEARTSHEARTS!!!


Sa o luam pe bucati...

1. Remixu facut de Horrors pentru melodia Manics 'Doors Slowly Closing'... de fapt, mai degraba (cred... asta imi indica simtul de fan) remixul facut de Tom si Rhys aka Spider And The Flies...not a conventional little one at all...basic idea: take one element of the song and use it to create a completely different song... Adica, baietii nostrii au preluat un element din the background of the original instrumental si l-au bagat in loop si prin toate nebuniile analogice cu care se joaca ei cand o pun de-o electronica experimentala, au (cam) ignorat tobele grand de pe original, au dissed the vocals, the little sweet distort si hopa a iesit 'DSC Part II' as seen by two extremely creative biatchs.... intra! intra!

2. Coveru' Manics dupa o melodia not-yet-realease 'Vision Blurred'... reactia initiala a yrs fatihfully: sa imi bag pula, ce misto suna!!! ce voce are James!!! (mentionez pe aceasta cale ca nu stiu originalul..yes, i'm a bad Horrors fan) precis o fi ceva pa sistem Killing Joke in original... reactia dupa vreo ora de repeat (adica momentul in care ajungi sa mai descifrezi ceva din ce mormaie James...daca ai noroc...): FARIS E UN GENIU!!! ce versuri...sa imi bag pula, e genial!!!! Sure,varianta Manics suna ca a big hard-rocking sonicly-mindblowing song... that is a lost gem from THB. cum am zis mai devreme, probabil originalul e this Killing Joke based song... sau poate vreo nebunie cu versuri spoken a la Shangri Las (introul din cover ma face sa ma gandesc la cum ar suna Shangri Las as played by JDB, nu ma-ntrebati de ce... )

All wrapped up in a 'Gime moar, gime moar'




kthxbai!

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

Glazed the blazed

Am cateva probleme lately...

1. Literatura de specialitate scrisa de americani, pentru prosti si numa' buna ca pretext sa te dai cu capu de pereti dupa ce dai peste vreo 10 pagini numai cu exemple...ok, WE GOT IT!

2. Examenul la publicitate de pe 6...pe langa faptul ca o sa fie o mare tristete (cica o sa avem intrebari inteligente...da' io de asta am dat la UniBuc?), e chiar in dimineata ce urmeaza concertului Goldfrapp (eh, veti spune, si? oricum nu iti place ultimul album... in fine...)

3. Plec la Londra...nu asta in sine e o problema doar cand te gandesti la the money i shall spent there. Plec la Londra in perioada 4-10 august. Nici asta nu ar fi o problema...maybe the heat. Pe 8 august e Underage Fest (pentru pustii intre 14 si 18 ani...) . Ghici cine canta.... daaa....The Horrors... ei, asta e o problema. Pe scurt, I need a fake id saying I am ...let's say almost 18... That is a first, ladies and gents. Someone pretending they are younger in order to get in a gig venue. FAIL!

4. Nu gasesc pe nicaieri Dandi Wind... adica, albumele. ca am si eu acolo de un repeat. Dar vreau mai mult....Sunt sublim de haotici.

Dandi Wind - Mafu Cage

p.s.: credeti ca daca I hang around the fest venue and I wait untill The Horrros show up and I try to get their autographs...and, like, explain the situation....they'll feel pitty for me and like take me backstage with them?

*FAIL!FAIL!FAIL!FAIL!FAIL!FAIL!FAIL!FAIL!FAIL!*

I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel

In the news today....

Did I get it right and we're seeing Leonard Cohen on the 14th of July?
(da, da... in Bucuresti, bah...)

I got meself a Ramones tee from Zara... shhhh

Sunt pe UrbanStyle...yes, I rock socks...

However, Rhys, Tom and Josh rock more socks than I do...d'asta si d'asta si d'asta

Faris no longer rocks socks cause he is dating this creature....

Stick a knife in the public eye

I'm just running in circles, fidgeting and...erm...stuff... Deoarece, deoarece ma omoara gandul ca The Horrors o iau pe cai necurate intr-ale directiei muzicale si eu nu am cum sa aud ce produc creerasele lor... ME WANTS!





Note: ca sa vedeti ce proasta sunt, am inceput sa plang mai devreme cand am citit un review facut pentru concertul de la Astoria in care the reviewer zicea ca nu mai suna so 60s si nu mai sunt centrati pe orga lui Rhys (they should, Rhys's magical fingers are the reason we love Horrors...well, one of the many reasons...)

Ah, si eu si Rhys... suntem facuti unul pentru altul...*dreamy*.. mai ales de cand m-am tuns ca el.. heh...

Tiptoe down to the lonely place

A few days ago, I read on the Horrors official forum that Jamie from Klaxons said the new Horrors album sounds shoegaze... First (stupid) reaction: oh, we know Joshua REALLY loves his white winklepinkles, but really now... he's staring at them while playing? Second (stupid) reaction: oh, great, now I can sleep while listening to The Horrors... cause I sleep really well while listening to shoegaze... not that I find it boring, it's just that My Bloody Valentine and Jesus&Mary Chain seem to be really relaxing... I even have dreams...

(and now something so the reader of this post won't get totally pissed off for reading this useless thing)

My Bloody Valentine - Loomer

More :|

Oh, today's just one big fucking straight face... no, no other celebrity has died... However, I was surfing the Horrors official forum (aka Horum) and realised I need to read things more carefully... Yes, they did say something about a producer at a certain moment...

"This might be privileged information, but just before the New Year we spent a week in the studio with Chris Cunningham and cut a couple of new tracks, they sound fantastic and we're very much looking forward to the reactions from both our fans and others. Hats off to Chris."

:|:|:|:|:|

oh...yeah... sure... ok

With a fist and a fall we meet with the floor

Znovurile circula de mult pe The Horum, dar de, lenea e mare in noi... Acum, ca Horrors ne-au promis album noi in Martie al acestui an, stim... Ce e mai gigea (&cute&cuddly&whatever) e faptul ca primul single ar putea fi...erm... o melodie pe care nu o stim (inca) sau un cover dupa minunatia asta...

Suicide -Dance

..ah, si eu inca vreau acel cover facut de Horrors dupa "No Love Lost"... imi vand plamanii pentru el... stiu ca fumez, dar asta e irelevant

----

In other news(for me)... Faris e producatorul noului ep Hatcham Social.. care va iesi la data de...*googles* 17 februarie.. parca ar conta... oricum, aici, in Romania ne doare fix in paispe de datele de lansare a variilor epuri si albume... tot nu le luam originale...

Buuuun.. tot nu m-am prins cine le produce the sophomore album astora de la Horrors si ma roada... sincer, vreau si nu vreau James Ford (cum se zvonea).. I mean, brilliant producer... but let's look at the facts: i-a corupt si pe Arctic Monkeys cu nu-raveu' (those beats..)... nu vreau niste orori nurave...

Ah, si ca tot vorbeam de nurave... De ce sophomoreu' Klaxons e produs de producatorul lui Bowie, Tony Visconti, and not Bowie himself ma depaseste...

Happy Horrors Day!

As posted on the fuzzy wuzzy Horum (Horrors+forum=Horum)

"

We did dress up… (and picked Horrors names... Nancy Webb and Fagis Hotter... emoticon )
I think I quite nailed it … though, hell, I’m a girl and I do not have a pair of black skinny/tight jeans… I shall not comment his attire… as I said when I saw him “Well, I don’t wanna question yr decision, in my opinion, you’ve made an excellent choice” (yes, quotes were involved)…



I should mention that my boots had high heels and I can’t wear such things… so I ended up carrying them in one hand and walking barefoot…up and down a avenue and we acted all obnoxious and horrors-like, or at least I like to think so… (but then again, that’s what we do on an average day, no need for the day to be a Horrors one)…
I was thinking about baking some cookies, buuuut… I’m a lazy-ass… so we just bought muffins and gave them horrors names…”oh, noez, you ate faris…how does he tastes?”/”you want a tomethy, a rhys or a joe?” “I’ll have a rhys”
Then, we went to see the latest Harry Potter… at the mall (that’s the only place where they still showcase it…)… which was fun, cause we came up with stuff such as “Ginny is a parasite” and “Voldemort is the new thing”… and naturally “Potter!Rotter!”… (the movie itself was crap)… and that would be it…
Oh, and this photo is intitled "fingers grasping at popcorn"

Count In Fives

So, yeah... I declare this the unofficial Horrors week... And here's a song for this Monday afternoon...
The Sonics - Have Love Will Travel.mp3


The Sonics are one of the many proto-punk/60s garage Horrors quote as a huge influence... just in case you were wondering...

Tomorrow, it's dressing-up-as-a-horror day *facepalm*... so stay tuned for more wonderful adventures of Nancy... cause apparently I have to give a speech or something at my university, having the biggest mark for the entrance exam...*facepalm again*

Every Inch Of My Love

Bican's not around to stress... actually, given the fact that he loves Horrors like I do (well, almost), the trem used should be 'share with'.... anyways, here are two bloody good Horrors lives...

Jack The Ripper


Death At The Chapel




aaand... another one of a B-side I do not own (yet!).... if you do have it and happen to drop by, please let me know (yes, Nancy desperate... Nancy needs)

Big Day Out

We joining... we wantz... I have a wonderful pair of boots from Zara which will be perfect for the occasion... will figure out the rest of me Horrors outfit for this wonderful day...

Tuesday, September 11

Aaaawwwww



look how nervous and shy Faris is ...

Pai nu?

Pe la 0:15, Nancy incerca sa faca nani... Se aude Golden Skans si Nancy se enerveaza... Primise SMS... "Daca e Bican, il trimit undeva!" , isi zice. Dar nu, e Smaranda. "Ai vazut?". "ce sa vad? teh darkness of the room while having my eyes closed?", se intreaba Nancy dar tasteaza simplu "What?". Raspunsul ii vine imediat: "The horrors pe MTV!!! cu she is the new thing!". Usor nervoasa ca a pierdut momentul, Nancy zice "Vesnica pomenire!" si se culca la loc.

later edit: I told you, I told you...
