Ride - Nowhere : 20th Anniversary Edition
Ride - Nowhere : 20th Anniversary Edition
[Rhino,2011]
Oxfords quartet Ride quickly rose to prominence in 1989, driven by the chart success of its first three EPs, the intensity of its live shows, and a hypnotic and moody sound that presaged alt-rock’s ascendance. In October 1990, the band released its first full album Nowhere, a tour de force of intertwining guitars, intimate but otherworldly vocals, and open-ended lyrics. Two decades later, the album still resonates and remains one of the era’s high-water marks.

Montreal Main, Frank Vitale (1974)

Full of equivocal relationships, "Montreal Main" constructs a world of moral ambivalence. On one level, it is a love story, exploring, as Natalie Edwards wrote at the time, " the diversity of sexuality, the shades and shifts lying inherent and unacknowledged in all people." On another level, it extends outwards towards allegory—towards a philosophical investigation of the world. Fragmented in style, swish-panning its way from close-up to close-up, Erich Bloch's camerawork creates a sense of hysterical excitement. Re-enforcing the improvisational nature of the action, the grab-shot technique suggests a world in which attention is uncertain and perception unclear. Lacking parsable narrative sequences, the style perfectly parallels the feelings of isolation that a clutch of gays might have felt at the time in a straight world or that Anglophones might have felt within a culture that was becoming insistently francophone.

Sean Rowe – Magic (2011)

With two exceptions, the tunes on Magic are played at almost funereal tempos. “Wrong Side of the Bed”, a bluesy dyspeptic rocker with a sharply ironic lyric, builds up to an anguished howling fadeout, while “Jonathan” has a jazzy R&B feel and uses an accelerating tempo and intensifying volume to deliver a grim tale of lovers meeting their end in a car crash fueled by rage and alcohol. The rest of the songs are less dramatic, dealing with the ordinary losses of everyday life and a more measured approach.

Middle Brother – Middle Brother (2011)

I'll be Daydreaming For So Long...All My True Friends Can Call Me Wilderness...
Deckic iz Deer Tick-a i Drugari Pevaju Na Sav Glas!!!

A trio of frontmen consisting of Deer Tick’s John McCauley, Dawes’ Taylor Goldsmith, and Delta Spirit’s Matthew Vasquez, Middle Brother have a sound that's dreamy and plaintive, pulling together aspects of the bandmembers' other work to create a unified sonic vision.

Slučaj Čarlsa Dekstera Vorda, Hauard Lavkraft, Logos,2007

Slučaj Čarlsa Dekstera Vorda (engl. The Case of Charles Dexter Ward) je roman američkog pisca Hauarda Filipsa Lavkrafta, jedan od najboljih klasičnih romana strave i užasa nastalih u 20. veku. Kratak roman, koji je objavljen tek nakon piščeve smrti, bavi se iskonskim poreklom strave koja je nepojmljiva običnom čoveku.
Roman počinje naizgled nevažnom vešću o tome kako je iz privatne bolnice za umobolne u blizini Providensa nestao pacijent po imenu Čarls Dekster Vord. U nastavku prvog poglavlja, porodični lekar porodice Vord, dr Vilet govori o tome šta je jednog bezbrižnog mladića, koji je bio zaluđen antikvitetima i najveći deo slobodnog vremena provodio u besciljnim šetnjama i prekopavanju po spisima u gradskoj biblioteci, oteralo u ludilo. Nebrojeni sati koje je mladi Vord proveo u biblioteci Gradske većnice, u narodnoj biblioteci, Istorijskom udruženju i drugim mestima u kojima je imao pristup starim spisima u traganju za geneološkim podacima, urodili su plodom. Mladi Vord otkrio je među precima svoje majke izvesnog dugovečnog čoveka po imenu Džozef Karven, koji je iz Salema došao u Providens u martu 1692. god.

VILIJAM BAROUZ: TOTALNI OTPADNIK
izvor: juznevesti
U četvrtak, 24. februara, u Maloj sali NKC-a na Paliluli biće održano predavanje o velikom američkom piscu Vilijamu Barouzu (William S. Burroughs, 1914-1997). Povod je izlazak novog broja časopisa GRADAC posvećenog ovom piscu. Temat je priredio Dejan Ognjanović, koji će govoriti o Barouzu.
Ljubiteljima književnosti kultnu figuru kakva je Barouz ne treba posebno predstavljati: njegova popularnost danas, preko jedne decenije nakon njegove smrti, veća je nego dok je bio živ. Vilijam Barouz je pisac čiji je značaj u svetskim okvirima u velikoj nesrazmeri sa dostupnošću njegovih dela (kao i napisa o njemu) u ovdašnjoj književnoj periodici. Ovo je zgodna prilika da se nešto više kaže i pokaže o njemu.
Razgovor će biti ilustrovan insertima iz igranih i dokumentarnih filmova i intervjua sa Barouzom i o Barouzu.
Dešavanje počinje u 19h.

"Bibinino dete"
RENDE [2011]
Radnja romana Bibinino dete jednako je neuhvatljiva kao „radnja“ neke zbirke poezije. Na konkretnom planu Mare Kandre piše o Kindhen, devojčici u pubertetu, koja živi u kući okruženoj bujnom baštom. Mesto radnje veoma je izolovano i Kindhen ne mari za spoljašnji svet. Likovi oko nje su Bibin, Ujka i Dete.
Radnja je, međutim, sporedna, a jezik je na prvom mestu. Ono što vas odmah, nakon prvih rečenica obuzme je melanholična, mračna atmosfera, monotonija. Kratke rečenice tekstu daju određeni ritam i pobožnu, biblijsku atmosferu. Afekti, neko prigušeno uzbuđenje jedino je što unosi energiju u tekst. To je izraz Kindhenine samoodbrane i želje za životom. Tekst može da se tumači na bezbroj načina i u tome je njegova veličina.

Danny Schmidt - Man of Many Moons (2011)

On Man of Many Moons, Danny's songs dance around the theme of personal evolution and a complicated relationship with commitment. The album begins and ends with songs of self-discovery ("Houses Sing" and "Know Thy Place") and in between moves through the personally conscious to the socially conscious--from the devastatingly honest title track to the playfully political "Guilty By Association Blues." Full of humor and revelation, Man of Many Moons is an album about challenging some of life's difficult rough edges.

East River Pipe – We Live In Rented Rooms (2011)

Review from The Guardian
East River Pipe’s F M Cornog is one of the most neglected songwriters operating in America today.
Working entirely solo on a primitive home-studio in his spare time, he constructs poignant settings of guitar, piano, drum-machine and string-synth pads for songs whose achingly beautiful melodies and understated delivery mask sometimes bitter sentiments. He’s like a more blue-collar Leonard Cohen, minus the lothario charm. This features his familiar cast of low-lifes, hustlers and losers, from the spurned lover gloating over “Payback Time”, to the self-made victim of “Conman”. The most complex being the subject of “Tommy Made a Movie”, so twisted by internet porn he has to keep his movie “locked inside his head”. Yet as wretched as his characters often are, Cornog always affords them the dignity of their own volition.

Arbouretum – The Gathering (2011)

These Baltimore psych-rockers’ fourth album is apparently based on Carl Jung’s Red Book, in which the psychoanalyst turned his gaze inward to document that which “burst forth from the unconscious” – which, in Jung’s case, turned out to be snakes, strange landscapes, wise old spirit guides, that sort of thing. And so from one set of faintly mystical archetypes to another: for it is vintage psych-blues riffs and mid-paced wig-outs that have burst forth from Arbouretum singer-guitarist Dave Heumann’s consciousness here.

SAMOUBISTVO NEVINOSTI
Samoubistvo nevinosti
Džefri Judžinidis
Izdavac : BOOKA,2011
Kritičari su odmah nahvalili ovaj debitantski roman, opisujući ga kao nežnu, uvrnuto-zabavnu priču o ljubavi i strahu, seksu i samoubistvu, uspomenama i mašti. Po ovom romanu Sofija Kopola je snimila svoj debitantski film (The Virgin Suicides).
Kultni prvi roman dobitnika Pulicerove nagrade za književnost Džefrija Judžinidisa impresivna je, duhovita i nežna priča o kratkom životu pet zanosnih sestara Lisbon, koje jedna za drugom oduzimaju sebi život u toku samo jedne godine. Spajajući najobičnije s najjezivijim i duhovito s tragičnim, Judžinidis daje živopisan i ubedljiv portret mladosti i izgubljene nevinosti.

Radiohead - new album
Radiohead are releasing their new album 'The King Of Limbs' on Saturday (February 19).
The band announced the news on their official website, Radiohead.com, this morning (February 14). It is available to order online at Thekingoflimbs.com.The record will be available as a download from Saturday, then released physically on May 9 as what the band are billing as a 'newspaper album'.
The 'newspaper album' package will contain 'The King Of Limbs' on CD, two 10-inch vinyl records and artwork sheets. Those who buy the set will also receive the album as a download on Saturday.
The name of the new album relates to an oak tree in Wiltshire's Savernake Forest, thought to be around 1,000 years old. The forest lies around three miles away from Tottenham House, a listed country house where Radiohead recorded part of 'In Rainbows'.
The tree is a pollarded oak, referring to an ancient technique for harvesting timber for fencing and firewood. The phrase also appears in the 23rd chapter of the Qu'ran.

Patti Smith told The Guardian: "[I've been] listening to Polly Harvey's new song - she has this new song, 'The Words That Maketh Murder' - what a great song.
It just makes me happy to exist. Whenever anyone does something of worth, including myself, it just makes me happy to be alive. So I listened to that song all morning, totally happy."

Kay Kay and His Weathered Underground – Introducing Kay Kay and His Weathered Underground (2011)

Kay Kay and His Weathered Underground is an indie band started by Kirk Huffman and Kyle O’Quin of Gatsbys American Dream. Like Gatsbys, the band draws influence from a wide variety of musical genres. Though the band only has 3 official members, they have been known to perform with as many as 11 additional musicians on stage.
Kay Kay got its start when Gatsbys American Dream went on hiatus, shortly after the release of their 2006 self-titled album. Huffman and O’Quin had been writing songs together while on tour and brought in Huffman’s friend Phil Peterson to round out the group.
The band first released a handful of tracks for streaming on Purevolume and MySpace. These songs later appeared on a cassette single released by ECA Records in 2006.

Newcomer Ariane Labed gives an exceptional performance which won her the best actress award at Venice this year.
