HeWhoCanNotBeNamed : Sunday School Massacre

This is not even something I can remember live because I’m just too young. But I know that in any record store you go, there’s always a hidden Dwarves record. Originally from Chicago, mid-80′s hardcore/garage band had relocated in San Francisco. But anyway, the true reason why the band was known for was the guy, He Who Cannot Be Named, a naked masked-guitar player.

Here is what I found today:

He wrote an album coming out this June, the 8th. He enlisted the help of former-Dwarves dudes including like Nick Oliveri (Kyuss, Queens of The Stone Age & The Dwarves), Blag Dahlia (The Dwarves, Candy Now), Andy Selway (KMFDM & The Spittin’ Cobras, The Dwarves).

Now, aou thte title and the lyrics, Sunday School Massacre, were inspired by HeWhoCanNotBeNamed’s experiences as a counselor/teacher with teenagers suffering from mental illness or abuse. Many of the songs were actually written while he was on duty at a residential treatment facility. Some of them were used to teach students in a “school of rock” type music program that he created and directed.

Yeasayer: Remix Contest

Yeasayer: Remix Contest

A month ago, Brooklyn-based Yeasayer offered a bunch of goodies in exchange of your financial donnations for them to go to Uganda, which is probably the biggest joke of the year. They gathered 22 grands for their little journey to Africa, which prupose was to learn about the effects of the Ugandan civil war. Think what that money would have fixed over there for kids involved in it! Instead of paying for sending hypsters to African History class.
Today the band launches a remix contest of the song O.N.E. from the album Odd Blood. On Mad Decent’s website, who’s organizing the competition, you can read that “the winners are determined by public voting [...] so it’s up to you as the creator to promote your mix”. Lire la suite

Broken Deer: White Woman

Broken Deer is Lindsay Dobbin’s solo project. She’s from the northern frontier of the Yukon, deep Canada. She’s definitely not a urban girl – she had a split cassette with a band called “Fuck Montreal“. Her weird and beautiful songs are mixed with field recordings, soundscapes, and lo-fi blips and bleeps to create a “celebration of nature, ritual, life and decay”. Lire la suite
