Arctic Monkeys - "505" (Favourite Worst Nightmare, 2007)

In my imagination you're waiting, lying on your side:
Στα όμορφα νέα της ημέρας, οι πολυαγαπημένοι Βρετανοί ανακοίνωσαν πως θα επισκεφτούν για πρώτη φορά τη χώρα μας και συγκεκριμένα στις 6 Ιουλίου στο Rockwave Festival!
Παρότι έχουν πολλές κομματάρες στη δισκογραφία τους, το "505" είναι ξεχωριστό και αγαπημένο μου. Φυσικά και θα είμαστε στη Μαλακάσα το Καλοκαίρι να το ακούσουμε, τι ερωτήσεις είναι αυτές.


The Band: Arctic Monkeys (Sheffield, UK)
Line Up: Alex Turner (guitar, vocals), Jamie Cook (guitar), Matt Helders (drums), Andy Nicholson, Nick O'Malley (bass)
The Track: "505"
The Album: Favourite Worst Nightmare (2007)
The Sound: Indie Rock, Alternative Rock, Psychedelic Pop
And Says...
I'm going back to 505
If it's a 7 hour flight or a 45 minute drive
In my imagination you're waiting lying on your side
With your hands between your thighs

Stop and wait a sec
Oh when you look at me like that my darling
What did you expect
I probably still adore you with your hands around my neck
Or I did last time I checked

Not shy of a spark
A knife twists at the thought that I should fall short of the mark
Frightened by the bite though its no harsher than the bark
Middle of adventure, such a perfect place to start

I'm going back to 505
If it's a 7 hour flight or a 45 minute drive
In my imagination you're waiting lying on your side
With your hands between your thighs

But I crumble completely when you cry
It seems like once again you've had to greet me with goodbye
I'm always just about to go and spoil a surprise
Take my hands off of your eyes too soon

I'm going back to 505
If it's a 7 hour flight or a 45 minute drive
In my imagination you're waiting lying on your side
With your hands between your thighs

...and a smile

Do you mind if I stay?
I'll blend in with the air
Oh, I've never felt this alone

Do you mind if I stay?
I'm the guardian of your nights
Turning your sorrow into gold

Would you pay for my loans?
'Cause I won't make it till old bones
Can you read my smoke signals?

Listen to the universe, you may find an answer
Love is here and everywhere, don't be scared
Listen to the universe, you may find an answer
Love is here and everywhere, don't be scared

Portugal.The.Man - "Feel It Still" (Woodstock, 2017)


Ooh woo, I'm a rebel just for kicks, now:

Οι Portugal.The Man κατάφεραν πέρσι με το κομματάκι αυτό να γίνουν Νο1 σε πόσες χώρες, να ακουστούν παντού και να έχουν αυτή τη στιγμή σχεδόν 100.000.000 views μόνο στο video clip του "Feel it Still" στο you tube. Not bad at all. Μας αρέσει και εμάς, περισσότερο όμως σε αυτή τη live έκδοση του .




The Band: Portugal.The Man (Portland, USA)
Line Up: John Gourley (vocals, guitar, organ), Zachary Carothers (bass, percussion, backing vocals), Eric Howk (guitar), Aaron Steele (drums)
TheTrack: "Feel It Still"
The Album: Woodstock (2017)
The Sound: Indie Rock, Indie Pop, Neo-Psychedelia
And Says...

Can't keep my hands to myself
Think I'll dust 'em off, put 'em back up on the shelf
In case my little baby girl is in need
Am I coming out of left field?

Ooh woo, I'm a rebel just for kicks, now
I been feeling it since 1966, now
Might be over now, but I feel it still
Ooh woo, I'm a rebel just for kicks, now
Let me kick it like it's 1986, now
Might be over now, but I feel it still

Got another mouth to feed
Leave it with a baby sitter, mama, call the grave digger
Gone with the fallen leaves
Am I coming out of left field?

Ooh woo, I'm a rebel just for kicks, now
I been feeling it since 1966, now
Might've had your fill, but you feel it still
Ooh woo, I'm a rebel just for kicks, now
Let me kick it like it's 1986, now
Might be over now, but I feel it still

We could fight a war for peace
(Ooh woo, I'm a rebel just for kicks, now)
Give in to that easy living
Goodbye to my hopes and dreams
Start flipping for my enemies
We could wait until the walls come down
(Ooh woo, I'm a rebel just for kicks, now)
It's time to give a little to the
Kids in the middle, but, oh until it falls
Won't bother me

Is it coming?
Is it coming?
Is it coming?
Is it coming?
Is it coming?
Is it coming back?

Ooh woo, I'm a rebel just for kicks, yeah
Your love is an abyss for my heart to eclipse, now
Might be over now, but I feel it still

Ooh woo, I'm a rebel just for kicks, now
I've been feeling it since 1966, now
Might be over now, but I feel it still
Ooh woo, I'm a rebel just for kicks, now
Let me kick it like it's 1986, now
Might be over now, but I feel it still
Might've had your fill, but I feel it still

Godspeed You! Black Emperor - "Mladic" (Allelujah! Don't Bend! Ascend, 2012)

The Anatomy Of Melancholy: Η μπαντάρα από τον Καναδά μας έρχεται για ένα live στην Αθήνα, στις 29 Απριλίου και απλά θα περιμένουμε στωικά να έρθει η μέρα εκείνη, λιώνοντας παράλληλα τη δισκογραφία τους. Μέσα στο 2017 κυκλοφόρησαν τον 6ο δίσκο τους  Luciferian Towers και βασικά προτείνω να τρέξετε από τώρα για το εισιτήριο σας, γιατί η παράσταση  θα είναι σίγουρα μια επική εμπειρία (και πιθανώς sold out). Το "Mladic" είναι το αγαπημένο μου κομμάτι  έπος τους και θα πείσει και αυτούς που ακόμη δεν έχουν μυηθεί στις Post-rock μουσικάρες, πως πρέπει να καταπιαστούν asap.
Η συναυλία θα γίνει στο Fuzz Club και υπάρχουν ακόμη εισιτήρια των 29€ προς προπώληση στα Viva.gr, Sevenspots, Mediamarkt, Reload, Ευρυπίδης, Viva Kiosk (Σύνταγμα & Τεχνόπολη), Metal Era, Syd Records, Rhythm Records, Sound Effect Reco.

The Band: Godspeed You! Black Emperor (Montreal, Canada)
Line Up: Efrim Manuel Menuck (guitar), Mauro Pezzente (bass), Mike Moya (guitar), David Bryant (guitar), Thierry Amar (bass), Aidan Girt (drums, percussion), Sophie Trudeau(violin), Tim Herzog (drums)
The Track: "Mladic"
The Album: Allelujah! Don't Bend! Ascend! (2012)
The Sound: Post Rock, Ambient
