Magik Markers: Boss

markers/bossMagik Markers came to me as a recommendation this summer and I am grateful that it was in time to listen to some previous material before "Boss-Ecstatic Peace" shot out hot and throbbing. They say the heart of rock n roll is still beating, and from what I've seen I believe 'em. This record put up against the backdrop of former MM material is fairly straight ahead. Sexy vocals, mean words, tamborine--and it's groovy! Everything's here...a confident, very at home Magik Markers complete with meat and potatos clamor, juicy diversity and fun. It's also a fabulous fuck record :: Magik Markers/Boss - (Ecstatic Peace/Cargo).

MOUTHUS

Best of the recent Our Mouth stuff is the first Sullivan solo CD-R. Sullivan's comes under the name Eskimo King, and /Tooth-Shaped Migration/ is five thick, detailed chunks of sound spread over a quick 17 minutes. What I dig most about Sullivan is his wide-open outlook on what sounds are worth making. Mouthus may concoct a lot of deep, textured noise, but they also use acoustic guitar loops, dirgey metal-like stomps, polyrhtyhmic meditations, busted rock riffs, and tons more.

„Nein, nein, kein Soundtrack! Wir kombinieren nur die Stücke auf unseren Alben - wir schneiden erstmal alles auf Band mit, um dann, vielleicht Monate später, zu sagen: Oh, das hier passt ja thematisch zu diesem Stück und auch zu jenem. Oder: Dieses Stück würden zu jenen Anderen passen, wäre es nicht so grottenschlecht. Also: Trash it.” Brian Sullivan/HE Interview
