Black Cobra - Feather And Stone [At A Loss Recordings 2007]



It is peculiar how two people can rock this much. Consider Black Cobra's bi-bodied brethren: The Spinanes and Mates of State (not that rocking); The Evens and Local H (sort of rocking); The White Stripes (more rocking), Jucifer (yet more rocking), Big Business (pretty goddamn rocking). These are girlie men (and women), however, next to Black Cobra's Hans and Franz.

Originally a bi-coastal experiment, this San Francisco duo has honed and nearly perfected a now-familiar sound - the pummeling sludge of Unsane, Melvins, High on Fire, Lair of the Minotaur, et al. Black Cobra's contribution is a singularity of force that results from a stripped-down lineup. Thus, cut away meanderings from The Melvins and mystical shit from High on Fire. Black Cobra wield only riffs, drums, and howls, solos be damned.

Yet Feather and Stone is perfectly named. Its 25 minutes are surprisingly varied. Clean tones break up the beatdowns of "Thanos" and "Dragon and Phoenix." Hypnotic, palm-muted menace introduces "Ascension." These lighter moments make the heaviness heavier; "Red Tide" drops like a tornado after "Thanos." Jason Landrian's scarred throat recalls Ministry's Al Jourgensen, while Rafael Martinez punishes both drum heads and eardrums. "Below the Cusp" throws tritones like elbows; "Swords for Teeth" feels like a brawl between very large men.

But Black Cobra aren't that big. And they kick the asses of "blackened death-tech-core" bands with five posers and a gratuitous model on keyboards. From now on, there's no excuse for not rocking hard enough.

Not sure if there were any fans here but according to Audrey S.

"Ladies and Gentleman, Amesoeurs does not exist anymore.

Neige has decided to split up the band, because of his new girlfriend, who is jealous of Audrey S' participation, forced him to stop everything.

Winterhalter, who has nothing to do with this story, was fired too, even if he doesn’t know it yet. The same for Fursy.

Conclusion : Byes, and have a nice Sunday.

Audrey S, who still doesn’t understand why Neige is a b… "





According to Niege,
"I have read the Audrey's statement and all the comments below. What a spectacle, really. She stole and changed the Amesoeurs' page password, I can't access to it anymore.

Indeed I'm leaving Amesoeurs but it has no much to do with any "girlfriend" gossips. I do it for several personnal reasons that apparently Audrey can't assume and understand. I never prevented her to keep on the band with the other members if she wanted to. I hope people will be conscious enough not to believe everything written there. No more to say."

JONY: to já také ne, ani ji nemám tak kůl proužkovanou

JONY: ale já nemám v lednici stephena o´malleyho :/

MATHEW: kdesi jsem četl postřeh, že než investovat do tohoto cd, je lepší si v noci sednout k vrčící lednici :-)

Stephen O'Malley - Salt [cd, Ideal 2008]



SALT is the audion component created for "Bleed", the initial collaboration between sculptor Banks Violette and musician Stephen O'Malley. First shown at Barbara Gladstone Gallery, NYC summer 2005 "Bleed" was part of the group show "Bridge Freezes Before Road", curated by Neville Wakefield, and was the first of five collaborations between the two artists. A quite moderate audio setup created some of the ongoing themes between the audio and physical work; sound pressure in relation to insubstantial mass, standing wave play, sense of space created by air pressure, and modifications of said space in relation to physical sculptural work.

Long playback loops of acoustic guitar and bass sine wave sparsely moved to the ear on it's own, but was designed to instead suggest modulation and border to the viewer/listener through their movement around and in relation to the work itself.

Subsequently the piece was acquired by The Guggenheim Museum and remains in their collection in NYC. "Bleed" also reemerged in summer 2007 as part of the "The Shapes of Space" show at said space.

btw tahle nové série vypadá moc dobře. To ep Skulflower je výborné, obě aktuální ukázky zní výborně a ta další jména vypadají také dobře.

Jinak je už týden k mání download only ep Final a dle mého názoru je to jedna z nejlepších věcí co Broadrick pod touto značkou vydal. Je to takový kytarový velejemný +/- drone ambient s až takovou "könerovskou" atmosférou.
