Bryan Anselm has a new book coming out - “Sound the Sirens”. The book encompasses the long-term effects that climate disasters have on communities across the United States, with tens of thousands of people left homeless and displaced while trying to rebuild their lives. Despite decades of warnings by climate scientists about the impact of rising temperatures on the stability of our planet, climate data is now broadly ignored in the service of capital and convenience, while risking the lives of hundreds of millions of people. 

The book is available for pre-order now here from Overlapse books: https://www.overlapse.com/catalog/sound-the-sirens/

Viacheslav Poliakov Lviv–God's Will, Overlapse, 2018

First edition. Trade Softcover. 17 x 24 cm portrait. 128 pages. 99 photographs.

価格：4,860円（税込み）

ウクライナのリヴィウ在住のアーティストViacheslav Poliakovの作品集。ドキュメンタリー写真を駆使してナラティヴな物語を作り出している。

Lviv–God’s Will comes from the name of a bus route that connects the city of Lviv with Bozha Volya, a small village lost deep in the forests along Ukraine’s border with the European Union — the promised land of wealth and eternal joy. The bus departs from the main gate of an old Lviv cemetery and travels west.

In Ukrainian ‘Bozha Volya’ translates literally to mean ‘God’s will’, but also shares origin with the word ‘bozhevillia’, meaning madness.

A naïve, visual subculture involving public space has become widespread throughout Ukraine after the fall of the Soviet Union and subsequent expansion of globalization. Makeshift sculptural scenes appear in the environment through accidental interactions and random interventions by unrelated people — products of indiscriminate behaviour, mistakes, destruction, and natural vegetation running wild.

Ultimately, nobody is responsible for this happenstance. It is all God’s will.

These scenes and structures are shown as found in reality, and have not been interfered with other than to be isolated from their surroundings. Neither are they confined to any geographical boundary; they reflect a state of mind.

The Nitty Gritty: Episode Nineteen

Band: Overlapse Album: There’s Nothing In The Annex Record Label: Self-released Release Date: October 23 2016

The Nitty Gritty: Remember when I talked about Maiwah, an R&B group from Canada that was pretty good, but just not the kind of R&B that I really like? If you don’t remember, even though that was fairly recent, Maiwah is more on the moody, somber, and quiet R&B that’s pretty nice, pleasant, and enjoyable, but it’s not energetic, smooth, or catchy. I can respect it for what it is, and how interesting it is, but it’s not for me. Not always, anyway. I just came across another Canadian act that’s relatively similar, but they’re also a bit different. Overlapse, an R&B / hip-hop hybrid, has that moody R&B sound, but they mix in some hip-hop and bars with it, making for a pretty interesting album. Their debut LP, There’s Nothing In The Annex, is a solid LP, but I can’t say I love it. It’s in the same vein as Maiwah, because it’s not quite for me. I mean, I enjoy their female vocalist, and she can sing very well, but this thing isn’t catchy, energetic, or anything like that. It’s moody, atmospheric, and chilled out, but that’s not the kind of music that I typically like. The male rapper that’s on a lot of the songs is good, too, though, and he’s got a good flow, the lyrics are solid, and it’s overall nice. I just can’t say there’s anything great here.

Would I recommend this? Honestly, I would, because even if something isn’t my thing, I can’t say that others wouldn’t like it. That went for Maiwah, too, because people would definitely like them. They should, too, since they’re good. It’s not just my thing. The same goes for this. I appreciate what they’re doing, and I like the album as a whole, but it hasn’t quite stuck with me in the weekend that I’ve been listening to it. I want to get into it, but no matter what, it just doesn’t quick stick with me. I definitely like it, but it’s not an album that I want to listen to all that much, you know? I respect this LP more than I really, really like it, but I do like it. It’s not an album I love, and there’s nothing really outstanding here, but there’s potential. I like what they have going on, and if they hone their sound a bit, this band could be great. As it stands, though, this is fine. If you’re into moody R&B / hip-hop, basically like Drake, you’ll like this. If you can’t stand that side of him, and some people can’t, I wouldn’t worry about this, because you won’t find anything to like. I’m in the middle, though. It’s good stuff, and I respect what they’re doing, but it’s not something I’m dying to revisit.
