Rebirth implies the death of something.

Something that is not useful anymore.

I thought I was here to protect you from yourself.

But this idea was only created to protect me from your own living shadow.

I’m sorry this is not true anymore. I’m sorry that I can’t give the strength you need.

It hurts that I can’t help you. I can only hold the light until you dare to see it.

“ L’enfance croit ce qu’on lui raconte et ne le met pas en doute. Elle croit qu’une rose qu’on cueille peut attirer des drames dans une famille. Elle croit que les mains d’une bête humaine qui tue se mettent à fumer et que cette bête en a honte lorsqu’une jeune fille habite sa maison. “ Jean Cocteau

It’s 4:30 in the morning in Montreal, and we have a video appointment with Blixa Bargeld at his Berlin home. No way to get a more accommodating time slot. That’s what his assistant tells us, Blixa prefers to do his interviews in the morning. Always a bit overdressed, in a black suit, the man, in […]

Ilitch

Like Periodikmindtrouble, 10 Suicides, originally a single LP from 1980, was reissued as a double CD with plenty of bonus tracks. On this second effort, Ilitch's main man, Thierry Muller, uses more musicians and even throws in vocals and song structures on a few of the tracks, though 10 Suicides is only marginally more accessible than the earlier effort. As the original album offered ten different soundtracks on suicide, this is as dark as ever, though more varied than its predecessor, going everywhere from the gentle but haunting piano interlude of "Symphonynachevee" to the harshly aggressive cyberpunk track "Periphikredcommando." On this latter track and the other songs, the voices are heavily processing and distorted, sounding something like the Residents, to match the bleak electronics and distorted guitar textures. "Waiting for Mabelle" is a strange piece of avant pop, with a catchy melody and bouncy but choppy rhythm, while "No Answer" is a nihilistic chant with industrial backdrop mixed with distorted psychedelic guitar pyrotechnics. The second disc has three live recordings, and actually comes closer to the more minimal material on Ilitch's first disc, Periodikmindtrouble, though the second track, "Comma Programma," is the complete recording from which the first disc's "Coma Programma I and II" were extracted. The tracks are quite drone-oriented, and the long third track is quite effective. It starts off like the others as droning and ambient, and then slowly builds up with intensity to a squalling noise.

1974 proto-punk band

“ “All the punks listened to reggae,” says Boles. “It was about all rebel music.” Gordon adds that “people, incorrectly, view punk as this angry, white, urban, male genre. Black culture is really the source of punk, and a lot of people don’t recognise it – or don’t want to recognise it.” “

“ Pure Hell’s story beckons essential questions about the integrity of our cultural memory, reminding us that “history” is written within the constructs of unjust society. “It’s just so important to me that history be correct,” says Parker-Lawton. “Taking the risks that they took, daring to be so different, they were outlaws and true pioneers. When people are that true to their art and that brave, it has to be recognised.” Although their musical careers didn’t necessarily bring wealth or fame, Boles and Gordon describe their years in Pure Hell as paramount. “I had so much fun, it doesn’t matter that I never saw a penny for it,” he says. “For us, it wasn’t about making money. It was about following our hearts and doing exactly what we wanted to do.” “
