Bohren & Der Club Of Gore - Dolores
http://rapidshare.com/files/149909027/bohren_d.rar@y94q0551:
One of those genres which struck me as seriously threatened was post-rock, not least because the adventurous spirit of the original post-hardcore experimentalists seems to have degenerated into so much prosaic quiet/loud dynamics and sub-metal chundering. An evolutionary dead-end. But then I realised that one of the records I’d been playing a lot of late, Bohren & Der Club Of Gore’s fantastic “Dolores”, was ostensibly a post-rock record, in the best sense of the term.
Bohren are a German band I’ve read about over the years (they formed in 1992, apparently), but somehow never heard until “Dolores” turned up. They operate somewhere around a point where jazz, ambience and post-rock intercept – which makes them sound rather like The Necks.
I imagine Bohren would probably appeal to Necks fans, but they’re still quite different propositions, judging by “Dolores”. For a start, “Dolores” seems meticulously composed rather than improvised: a series of slow, contemplative pieces driven by saxophone, vibes or piano, anchored by discreetly brushed cymbals, shrouded in a distant atmospheric hum.
The post-rock antecedents to this strike me as being Labradford, especially, with the baroque classical influence replaced with the jazz of Bill Evans, perhaps, and maybe some early Tortoise. But there’s also a strong kinship with Josh Haden’s exceptional Spain circa “The Blue Moods Of Spain” (though Bohren’s work is entirely instrumental), and, as someone here mentioned the other day, Angelo Badalamenti’s “Twin Peaks” work.
And then there’s the doom element, which has seen Bohren recently aligned with the likes of Earth and Sunn 0))). You can hear that in the sloth and resonant chordal thump of things like “Welk” and “Schwarze Biene (Black Maja)”. The latter track is the stand-out, probably, beginning like something from the Aphex Twin’s “Ambient Works Volume Two” before the piano arrives.
But “Dolores” isn’t really a record where individual tracks stand out that much; it’s a completely engrossing whole. Anyone out there know if Bohren’s previous albums are as good as this one?
Un poquito de post rock, más tarde cuando acabe de subirlo un Split de Arboretoum y Pontiak
Pues me he metido en el myspace de esta gente y parece que le dan más al jazz que al postrock. Un jazz calmado y oscuro. No sé si es que han cambiado de estilo en este último disco. Toxinho, lo has escuchado o en lo de postrock te has guiado por la cita?

Mea culpa, las revisiones de los discos son lo que tienen. Te fijas en la primera palabra que te suena y lo sueltas.
Además ultimamente todo el mundo pide que se etiqueten a los grupos que se postean para ver si merece la pena. -
DDD jazz. Dark Death Doom Jazz. La verdad es que dan mucho mieeeedo.

"Imagine early Mars Volta, but way more eclectic and diverse, with electronic, hardcore and hip-hop elements and string arrangements. Every song has its own style and feel, but they all share common atmosphere. Unlike many bands that are eclectic just for the sake of it, The Stiletto Formal's music simply works: the album is surprisingly consistent and never feels disjointed. Recommended."

buscarle etiquetas a Bohren & Der Club Of Gore es de lo más absurdo, pero lo de post rock me ha llegado al alma. Ya cuando alguien dice que son jazz ya lo miro con cara rara…Por cierto, alguno habrá aqui que los vio en Apolo.

yo igual les veo en breve, queréis que le de algún recadito o algo?
-
Si, en un capricho. Luz apagada y solo un haz sobre el micro. Que romántico.
herr Trinx: si, pillame una camiseta que la que les compré en Barna me va estrecha…creo que se ha encogido de lavarla.
Y, claro está, que se vuelvan, pero en una sala y solo para público tarado, no en festivales ni cosas de esas. -

quita quita….hazme caso.

Les debo una escucha (o dos) en condiciones a esta gente, hace tiempo que me pasaron el "Midnight radio" y la verdad es que no le he hecho mucho caso, me lo puse sólo una vez y en condiciones subóptimas y no me entró mucho. Eso sí, tienen toda la pinta de ser una de esas cosas que en directo ganan lo suyo. Estoy con el tokiota: que se vengan a alguna sala para público tarado.

Porn/Merzbow split - And The Devil Makes Three [Truth Cult, 2008]
@169ms3dn:
12 tracks, 48 minutes. First release from new Southern imprint Truth Cult, a split album between Porn and Merzbow which blends seamlessly to create a beast of no equal.
TRUTH CULT is a brand new imprint lovingly curated by Southern Records. We aim to illuminate some novices worthy of discovery, unearth archive recordings that criminally have been left fallow and to arrange some beautiful collaborations and unique projects for your consideration. Art and packaging will be paramount to the label, as we strive to reinforce the tangible relationship between music and artefact. The cult of truth is the celebration of revelation and recognition. The only common thread will be the uncommonness of our miscellany. The only criteria will be the desire to see what otherwise might remain obscured.
Truth Cult's first release is a split album between PORN (formerly known as Men Of Porn) and Merzbow. PORN is the demented child of one Tim Moss. Originally from Omaha, Nebraska, Moss fronted the cult band Ritual Device, forging links with the West Coast with the patronage of Frank Kozik's Man's Ruin Records. Eventually Moss moved out to the Bay Area where Men Of Porn was born. In the stellar company of Melvins' stalwart Dale Crover (on drums) and omnipresent uber-producer Billy Anderson (on bass), this is a 'Power Trio' in the truest sense of the phrase. Since 1999, they have released three albums and toured the world as the de facto Melvins' support band, thanks to Tim Moss's day job as the band's tour manager. For their newest album, and the nascent release on Southern's brand new imprint Truth Cult, the intrepid low-end experimenters enlist the help of Japanese noise demigod Masami Akita (aka MERZBOW). Collaborating across the album's twelve tracks, the fearless Masami layers scree and grafts gristle onto their already dense muscular creations - this is a marriage made in Blake's Heaven & Hell; their two uniquely singular approaches blending seamlessly to create a portentous hybrid beast of no equal.http://lix.in/-361827 -
