Interesting Insulin Type Charts

Marlowe, reverb silence.

" is fortunate to live in this world, look at a flower, a cloud drifting, listening to a bird, the whisper of the ears in a cornfield, to admire the traits of people , their tendencies, their breath secret. " Ingmar Bergman speaks well of reality.


seems that Marlowe masterfully have learned the lesson. For almost a decade and are on the scene after collaborating with the likes of Cesare Basile and Marcello Caudullo, it seems that the latest work, " Fiumedinisi "may have finally found their ideal size.


walls and surrounded by dark memories, thoughts attached to the windows and heavy cat curled up in red leather armchairs, the band Caltanissetta absorbs and regurgitates a reality riot of forms. Mix colors and paints with violence on the canvas of a shoegaze tired. There is resignation, but a slow process of metabolism of reality.

Search references and similarities seem rather pointless and an end in itself, good only for those who love outstanding music in two lines. I strongly believe that every band, even when others try to emulate sounds, otherwise absorb the lessons of those who preceded Music.

Most of the influences of Marlowe the meeting in more arts than in other areas of Euterpe, but for the simple reason that the thickness of their music goes beyond the 12 notes and draws heavily on literature and art films (that's what the reference to Bergman). Still, the literary references that depart from their group name, or Marlowe, is a dual literary heritage: the first by Philip Marlowe, Raymond Chandler's character that moves in hostile environments and is akin to contempt order. Secondly also brings to mind Christopher Marlowe: no less alien to the love of hostile environments compared to the character of chandleriana memory. Christopher loved the fights and his figure was ambiguous and determined during the recovery and admired romance, perhaps the era from which Marlowe (those of Caltanissetta!) Are unconsciously attracted to.

is not an easy drive of the nissen, both texts to music. A jewel in the Italian music scene, where recently emerging artists are flattered that mediocre just because they sound "weird" and often replaces the adjective easily the word "evil." Yes, it is fortunate to live in this world.

Ortho Total-kill Lawn & Garden

Locomotif

The first thing I want to say is that the vintage leather suitcase holding symbol from the band there. It contains an aerosol of the singer.

is not the first time I went to see the Locomotif live, but this time I can also watch the soundcheck. That might seem a dead time, but instead reveals a multitude of things that would otherwise go unnoticed. The dynamic between the band members for example, or their way of making music.

The room is almost empty, but Federica just sing a few notes that may be filled with elegance. Seeing her off the stage seems to be your cousin, but when he goes on stage he surrounds himself so accurately the charm of his voice that seems to find a French singer of the Roaring Twenties. Its elegance is not oldie, but a different and more contemporary to transmit the teachings of the greats of the past. Billie Holiday for example, which shows that his muse, but then also to think about those sounds Zero7 and B-side able to take you to a different kind of atmosphere.

Besides Federico Faranda the Locomotif are Barchitta Luca on drums, Gianluca Ricceri on bass and Carmine Ruffino to Rodhes. An integral part of Locomotif is Sergio Sallicano , this musically as the author of three of the songs from their album Twimog (his are Twimog, Lost on the run and Drunken Dreams).

Carmine me is referred to as the "dictator" of the group, the one who takes care of keeping the direction of the band and worrying that everything goes as planned. " I am very precise when it comes to music, I think it must be done in a professional manner even if it is 'only' a passion. I can not conceive - continued - how to improvise on stage. It 'not necessary to have a professional approach attention to detail. "

This is not a dictatorship, which marks the band's artistic choices that I prove to be the most diverse and varied. At the center of everything there but the voice of Federico and his jazz training, which requires special regard to the time of composition. " Yet I feel that a bit 'in the margins of all - confesses -. Although them to follow me, I sometimes find myself in trouble because my explanations are resolved in general indications that the rest of the band must be able to follow . "

Carmine is also the passion for vintage suitcase-represented first by the famous symbol, but also the choice to use on stage Rhodes tells me that a plane electro-weight of 60 kg. An original piece that was repaired at a time during the course of years.

Their music is a steady crescendo that seems to explode at any moment, but it stops just when you expect an opening. The result is an eternal tension and a climate of expectation that unfolds almost erotic never complete, fully capturing the attention of the public. In this climate facing different musical influences that are hidden for a moment before being captured. Peep their other musical moments, including one can see even drum & bass and electronics, but they disappear soon after incorporated as fish from the waves.

" The choice of not having a guitarist is precisely this - I said Carmine -. Besides the fact that by nature I can not get along with them, our choice is precisely due to this climate of tension that we intend to keep. Guitarists but can not hold back and explode in endless solos, plunging the expectation that had arisen. The explosion took place is not one of our specific choice .

On stage lack the bells, played by Federico, because the "king" was stolen during the previous evening. " I would like to know if that makes people a little bell " he says, disappointed.

A concert started, the room is full and no longer just me with the musicians. At some point something happens that more than anything else, is able to explain what this band is able to engage with his music listener. The audience begins to shut, with increasing insistence, the few bad people who are talking during the concert. "This music needs to silence " I hear. At the end of the concert, the audience calls for an encore. So far everything is normal. But the trio also asks that the Locomotif grant until the "goodnight" peremptory Federica not the end of the concert.

E It is no coincidence that the concert will end with "Passer-by that of all the pieces of the album is one that" opens "more, coming to an end almost to explode and solve the climate of emotional tension that had the whole concert created. And when you're there, you're almost there, the song ends abruptly. Leaving it there, like a fool.

As a lover abandoned.

Dry Aged Steak Butcher Los Angeles

Exude space

exude space.
Remotes.
Even with that color semi dense paper ..
dot the i.
government still will not
but I can skip them.
shy smile hidden in darkness.
Apparently nothing makes sense.
There is only time.
There is only space.
But there are no categories.
Only a transient stream of persuasion and seduction
refute that from time to time and laugh.
I laugh because in the end refute with
doubt and instead of losing the trust between the tracks
she starts to see, hear and love.
The dear blind faith and bad turns
ten-tenths of sphericity.

Almost perfect death, these philosophical
this perpetual cycle unit of the human race.
Unit.
Whore of meetings stray.
dot the i.
What you can not draw
without removing the pencil from the paper.
Modigliani and his long necks.

long necks without eyes,
how many of us are like them.
murmur.
silent.
creep on the moon and music theory.
correct their steps ..
No, do not do it anymore.
does not do it anymore.
A jump to the rhythm of incessant beats
sweat, light and looks that you understand.
They understand that in the end only
all are made as they are made.
Or how it took place or be put.
Or someone has put them.
But it is not the central motivation.
It 'like a star ice
gift to his girlfriend
revealing in their immaturity

stalactites that man can now

buy everything.

Including the purchase of their understanding
for what they buy. Buy
so also the unanimous acceptance of his friends
long necks blind trust
paper ball and crawling and Solfeggio
on the moon without even asking why
there is no time and there is no room for anything else
.

No.
do not play anymore.

I'm going.
do not play anymore.
Really.

Life is an unmade bed
I take what I find

and I leave behind me that I take.


To all a stream of dots on the
that one by one, forming a line,
and scheduled in line form a path,
location and form a path
design and drawing design
recreate from scratch what we have destroyed.
Everything
to move forward in that cycle
spherical and unitary
no longer belongs to the original strain.
But only degeneration of the same.
characters that are handed down sometimes yes sometimes no,
and gradually fade away forever.

A room and strange noises
remind me of who I was inside my head
.
Inside my head. Ah, Uoh.
How come nothing and I was studying, can do evil with the beating of wings.

Not to mention the other dimension.
and moving objects.
And the mind leaves the body and flies to another dimension,
a nation of heroes who enters into us ..

We writers of a past still present
traitors and understanding, the surveyor with his eyes closed
of what we carry and what to leave out
is lost forever
among those thousand zeros.

Asain Familiy Kill White Man

Alchera live @ live @ Catania Catania

Alchera , the dock sounds toxic.
Catania, Wednesday, Feb. 9.


I have respect for those who play this way. No rock-star ambitions, only the desire to be on stage to convey emotions. When asked what their influences, they respond that they do not know. When I say that I think look a bit like 'The Notwist to respond that I do not even know.


It 's a normal evening in February, freezing cold that gets into your shoes, the same ones that slip through the streets of Etnea due to wax candles to the recent feast of Saint Agatha took to the streets. In the heart of Catania there are already Alchera on stage playing like madmen. I'm late as usual, and I miss the usual ten-minute concert. The local thankfully is not full, but there's nice people interested in listening to and applauding with conviction at the end of each piece.

The acoustics of the place honestly does not seem wonderful or maybe just the wrong volume setting, but the sound is a confused mix of drums and bass and guitar dominates the mix powerfully group. Even the synth sound "different" as usual, very muffled and imprecise. But this is only one aspect of the concert, luckily there is something else. The four Augsburg rule the stage with some confidence. It 'obvious that the many years of experience have served to develop a secure harmony on stage.

They play all their hard, playing with sounds and psychedelic instrumental with tails. If landfill dreams, their last studio album, on disc unfolds much more intimate and sophisticated sounds, live Alchera's changing shape. The basic structure remains the alternative (a mix of post rock and electronic nineties) but live is obscured the meditative side of the group, leaving out their most wild and uncontrolled. My favorite "Petrochemical Sunset" is performed masterfully, much better live than on disc.
The result is a very lively performance, intense and engaging.

More good music from Sicily, and sorry if it is little.

Natural Coff Surpresant

Gentless3

I think that the concerts can be broken down into three broad categories:

  • · The concerts of the artists you've known before, but you have not yet heard the new album.
  • · concerts for which I know all the songs and the lyrics of the album and can not wait to hear them live.
  • · concerts for which I do not even know who you are talking to.



Here, for me going to see more Ragusa Gentless3 , who had their album "I've buried your shoes down by the garden ", was just the third case.

In these cases a serious reviewer, an expert on music, sitting in the audience and begin to rattle off his " looks like a.. , "" Remember the ... "" You can hear the influences of .... " I am a blonde but that phony come to the conclusion that if I can not find a foothold in the music hold on, at least I can describe the feeling. Even and especially considering the fact that not even the singer decided to give me a hand "you have to get you alone," he said. So be it.

The first thing that comes to mind is that, since I can not find any musical reference, this must be due to the fact that Gentless3 must have their musical roots close to the singer-songwriter and blues of Nick Drake, Bob Dylan and Jeff Buckley. This is at least what comes to mind listening to the melody of the vocals Carlo Natoli , but this was a voice that is more reminiscent of Eddie Vedder. And his singing is a hot sip slowly slipping, while the band behind him does nothing but create an emotional chaos that leaves the lens and explodes in the finale. A carpet almost post-rock to blues voice. One of the few bands in which is the battery to be the protagonist of the scene, breaking up a bit 'from his role as rhythmic background, evolving to become a soloist of the stage with its constant changes of pace and the dominance of the use of timpani.

And it's a bit 'like watching a storm behind the glass of a window, staying warm in your home. Can almost hear two concerts, overlapping with the dark and dense atmosphere of the voice of Charles and sounds open and ventilating the rest of the band ( Sergio Occhipinti on guitar, Sebastian Cataudo on drums and keyboards Floriana Grasso) .

on stage Cesare Basile that lends itself to achieve what the singer calls " a rereading of his chaotic and freeform" Ceaseless and Fierce. "

Are Dead Mice In Wall B

Dimartino live @ live @ Catania Catania

I must confess that they are not among those who welcomed "Dear teacher we lost," the new working Dimartino .

I've never been a fan of Famelika and I was rather indifferent before the change in their Dimartino. This is an album, their, very well received by critics and the public of aficionados. An album that left me rather unmoved, while recognizing in some great artistic peaks.


I tried to go to their live stripped of any preconceptions about them, eliminating all my previous criticism and try to assess their performance exclusively on the stage. As it should be. I must admit that it was a much anticipated concert in Catania, but penalized by the monumental feast of St. Agatha that has virtually paralyzed the entire center and caused many defections.

on stage is certainly the presence of Simona Norato what stands out most, with the elegance of the movements made even more fascinating by the naturalness with which he can switch between keyboards, guitar, percussion and then also to the xylophone and accordion. Certainly, the backbone of the music of Dimartino, he can find his epic explosion in "Wanted soul," the most beautiful song with the refrain of the last years of music production. Yet the public is heard commenting: " The sounds of the keyboard are fantastic . We then move on to intimacy stage presence of Antonio Di Martino and exuberance contrasted Just currents to the battery. In his argument on stage salt also Cesare Basile, who took care of their artistic production, to accompany them live in "The Ballad of fashion," included on the album cover of Tenco.

The distruttivistica "I burn my bottom", the legacy of their past musical life, best represents what has been their growth and the transition from the angry Famelika, the conscious artistic maturity of Dimartino. Not a clean break with the past, more than anything else is like look at a picture of young people.

" singing I could die," says Antonio on the stage and the audience anticipates every word of every verse showing, better than any review could do, that their album is really able to reach the ears of the public.

Although some passages look a bit 'too Rino Gaetano must be admitted that it is live that you can not appreciate their music, despite the size of "literary" that can make listening to their cd.

Regardless of personal taste this is definitely a band talented musicians who have decided to dare and who have succeeded in what is the main business of those who go around to promote their album: love to be able to do so.

And I, even though I was strenuously opposed it, now I sit here writing this report with their disc repeat in the background.
