Lo de Robert Pollard no es de este mundo. En estos días saltaba la noticia por partida doble, aunque a estas alturas que el ex líder de los míticos Guided By Voices saque uno, dos, o los que hagan falta nuevos discos ya va dejando de ser noticia.
La primera de las novedades que compete al prolífico músico de Dayton es la próxima publicación de su nuevo trabajo en solitario. Elephant Jokes será editado por su propio sello el 11 de agosto y, aparte de que alguno de los miembros de Guided By Voices que solían colaborar con él han dejado de hacerlo, poco más podemos ofreceros del disco que su tracklist:
01 Things Have Changed (Down in Mexico City) 02 Johnny Optimist 03 When a Man Walks Away 04 Parts of Your World 05 Symbols and Heads 06 I Felt Revolved 07 Epic Heads 08 Stiff Me 09 Compound X 10 Accident Hero 11 Tattered Lily 12 Hippsville (Where the Frisbees Fly Forever) 13 Newly Selected Dirt Spots 14 Jimmy 15 Pigeon Tripping 16 Spectrum Factory 17 Perverted Eyelash 18 Cosmic Yellow Children 19 Blown Out Man 20 Desiring 21 (All You Need) to Know 22 Architectural Nightmare Man
Por si un nuevo disco 'a secas' nos pareciese poco y teniendo en cuenta que en octubre se editará Zero To 99, lo próximo de Boston Spaceships, ante ayer mismo se publicaba Jar of Jam Ton of Bricks, primer disco de Cosmos, un nuevo proyecto en el que Bob colabora con el australiano Richard Davies (The Moles, Cardinal) y que incluye los siguientes temas:
1 Stoke Newington Blitzkrieg 2 Don't Be a Shy Nurse 3 Nude Metropolis 4 You Had to Be There 5 Grapes of Wrath 6 Sudden Storms Are Normal 7 Zeppelin Commander 8 Enter Moonlight 9 For the Whiz Kid 10 The Neighborhood Trapeze 11 Just By Pushing a Button
12 Early Chills, Early Crow 13 Westward Ho 14 Hail MaryCon estas tres grabaciones y si sumamos The Crawling Distance, disco publicado por Robert en enero, y los discos de Boston Spaceships y Circus Devils, son ya seis los discos en los que Robert Pollard ha trabajado este año (catorce en los últimos cuatro años y manteniendo un nivel medio más que aceptable). El caso es que aún estamos en junio…
menos discos y más conciertos, Robert Pollas.

Dentro de poco va a estar prohibido que los nativos de Indonesia vistan como lo han hecho siempre por una ley antipornografía!
Ya sabéis, denunciad a los médicos por vouyeurs, pervertidos, y los ginecólogos ya ni te explico, violadores todos!Encima lo publica El Mundo. Hay que tener sentido del humor.

Con el dinero de ese escenario montabas 20 hospitales en Africa, BONO HIJODEPUTA
-
y encima es horrendo, que cosa más fea.
-
Bono es el Florentino de la música.
Y U2 el Madrid, claro (aunque U2 llevan más años que los blancos sin ganar nada)
-
Todo el rollo humanitario del Bono queda invalidado desde el momento en que NO PAGA IMPUESTOS usando tocas las triquiñuelas legas y paradisos fiscales posibles. Hay que tener cojones para pedir la condonación de la deuda al África cuando nisiquiera él, siendo multimillonario, está dispuesto a pagar su contribución. De donde pretende que salga el dinero?
-
Hay que entenderlo, al pobre bono. Ese escenario sólo lo llevan construyendo un par de semanas, no ha costado tanto, y habrá sacado del paró a un montón de gentes, como 20! Y total, no es para tanto, eso lo han construido adrede, pero adrede para el camp nou, eso no cabe en el Bernabeu u otros campos de fútbol, y no por que lo diga yo, que no he estado en otro, sino por gente que se sabe las medidas de memoria. Vamos que en los otros sitios habrán construido otros, por que además, coño haced cuentas: concierto diario, 2 semanas para montar el tinglado…
Además, que os pensabais, que todo este pollo es para las dos horas que dura el concierto? noooo, ignorantes, ¡Que son dos conciertos de dos horas! seguidos! que no habrá que desmontarlo ni nada!A que ahora no jode tanto?
Os falta por ver lo que van a hacer con ese matojo de leds… sube, baja y se abre como un puto acordeón!
Ui, y la mesa de sonido… Eso es como un escenario del primavera, pero hecho casa! Con toldo como una tienda de campaña, sus ventanitas, sus dos o tres salas (supongo que sonido + luces + audiovisuales).
Mi deducción: Montar un pollo enorme y a ver si la gente no se fija mucho en U2, que son lo de menos.
En fin, que me pongo y no paro.
He oído que eso luego lo da para que hagan una cabaña-iglesia en Madagascar.

Muy bien el de Fleet Foxes defendiendo las descargas públicamente:

Bands 'better because of piracy'
By Ian Youngs
Music reporter, BBC NewsThe rise of illegal downloading has been good for the music scene, helping to create a generation of exciting new acts, according to US band Fleet Foxes.
File-sharing has been the scourge of record labels for the past decade.
But singer Robin Pecknold said it had made it easier for musicians, including him, to discover lots of classic music that has influenced and inspired them.
"As much music as musicians can hear, that will only make music richer as an artform," Pecknold told BBC News.
"I think we're seeing that now with tons of new bands that are amazing, and are doing way better music now than was being made pre-Napster."
The original Napster launched in June 1999 and became the first mass file-sharing service, sparking an ongoing battle between the music industry and popular but unlicensed song services.
Pecknold, 23, says his band, one of the success stories of 2008, would have been different had he not had access to Napster and similar music sources while growing up.
"That was how I discovered almost everything when I was a teenager - my dad brought home a modem," he said.
"That was how I was exposed to almost all of the music that I love to this day, and still that's the easiest way to find really obscure stuff.
"I've discovered so much music through that medium. That will be true of any artist my age, absolutely."
Brian Wilson's Smile and The Zombies' Odessey and Oracle were among the albums he discovered through the service, he said.
Record companies argue that piracy means people buy less music, which in turn means the labels have less money to spend on developing new acts.
The music industry has been hit hard in the last 10 years, with global album sales down more than 50% since 1999 - and the blame largely aimed at file-sharing.
Complaints 'disgusting'
But Pecknold said he did not object to file-sharing. **"I've downloaded hundreds and hundreds of records - why would I care if somebody downloads ours? That's such a petty thing to care about.
"I mean, how much money does one person need? I think it's disgusting when people complain about that, personally."**
Fleet Foxes' self-titled debut album was released last June and was named best album of 2008 by Billboard, The Times, Mojo, Pitchfork and Uncut.
The harmonic Seattle folk rock five-piece also earned two Brit Award nominations at the start of the year.
Their slow-burning success continued as the album peaked at number three in the UK chart in February.
On Thursday, the group beat Leonard Cohen and Radiohead to be named best live act at the Mojo magazine awards in London._

At The Drive-In in reformation talks
Defunct El Paso band At The Drive-In have been in talks to reform, according to their former singer Cedric Bixler-Zavala.
The band split in 2001, with Bixler-Zavala subsequently forming prog-rock band The Mars Volta with fellow At The Drive-In guitarist Omar Rodríguez-López.
Now the singer has said that he has been in discussions with the band's former members, and has suggested that they could get back together after they sort their financial business out.
"We've been making amends with a lot of the members and having some really good talks with them," he told Drowned In Sound. "We've been trying to get our financial business in order because a lot of people have been ripping off that band really badly."
He added: "I wouldn't mind it [a reformation]. It might happen, we just have to iron out a lot of personal things. A lot of it we've dealt with already and I've apologised for a lot of things I've said and the way it ended… we'll see what happens."
Yo es que siempre he sido mas de estos que de Mars Volta (muy buenos pero demasiado pajilleros a ratos para mi gusto)

Hoy ha salido un artículo en El Periódico que habla de las nuevas bandas de pop en Catalunya.
