Morisi priprema novi album
Stiven Patrik Morisi, nekada frontmen legendarne grupe iz Mančestera “The Smiths”, potpisao je ugovor sa kompanijom “Polydor/Decca “ za novu ploču, devetu u njegovoj solo karijeri.



Morisi je za magazin NME izjavio da nije pao u iskušenje da objavi album kao što su to “Radiohead” uradili, tj. da sam objavi album bez izdavačke kuće, jer mu to jednostavno ne bi odgovaralo.

“Ako oni (Radiohead) misle da to može da funkcioniše, onda je sve super. I da, možete da posmatrate izdavačke kuće, i možete lako da shvatite da pljačkaju ljude već godinama, i godinama, i godinama. Čitav proces je ogromna pljačka. Ali, sa druge strane, postoje ljudi kao što sam ja koje treba držati u institucijama… pod tim ne mislim na ludnicu”, objašnjava Morisi.

Pored albuma najvećih hitova iz njegove solo karijere Morisi je najavio i da radi na novom materijalu.

“Veoma sam srećan zbog toga. Trenutno baš volim moj bend, i pesme su sjajne, naravno”, rekao je Moz i dodao da nova ploča neće biti tematska.

“Mislim da nijedna moja ploča nije bila tematska”.

“Nije mi potreban kameleonski element, da mamim ljude novim kostimima. Voleo bih da mislim da sam dovoljno, kao ličnost, komplikovan i interesantan.”

Nick Cave na pitanje zasto brkovi??? Quote:"Man without moustache are like woman with them"

eeeeee, ovo je za mene dobra vest:


Novi album sastava „Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds“ pod nazivom „Dig, Lazarus, Dig!!!“ u prodaji bi trebalo da se pojavi 3. marta 2008. godine posredstvom izdavačke kuće „Mute“..

Četrnaesti album po redu producirali su sami članovi benda uz pomoć Nika Launeja (Nick Launay“, koji je već sarađivao sa Nikom Kejvom na diplom albumu „Abattoir Blues/The Lyre Of Orpheus“.

Kejv je sa bendom album snimao tokom leta 2007. godne u „State Of The Ark“ studiju u Londonu.

Izgled omota poveren je britanskim umetnicima Timu Noblu i Sui Vebster (Sue Webster).

Zanimljiv podatak. Da me je neko pitao ko je u prvih 10 po ostvarenom profitu od turneja u North America, u 2007 g., ne znam dal' bi' 2 pogodio

The Police made more money than any other act in North America with their 2007 tour, it has been confirmed.

Sting and co's reformed rock titans made their live comeback earlier this year, playing a total of 54 concerts in the US and Canada.

The shows raked in $131.9 million, almost double that of Kenny Chesney and Justin Timberlake in the Top 10.

Celine Dion and Van Halen were fourth and fifth in the survey, which was carried out by American trade publication Pollstar.

The Top 10 is as follows:

01 The Police ($131.9m)
02 Kenny Chesney ($71.1m)
03 Justin Timberlake ($70.6m)
04 Celine Dion ($65.3m)
05 Van Halen ($56.7m)
06 Tim McGraw and Faith Hill ($52.3m)
07 Rod Stewart ($49.0m)
08 Genesis ($47.6m)
09 Josh Groban ($43.0m)
10 Rascal Flatts ($41.5m)

As previously reported, The Police headline the Isle Of Wight Festival alongside the Kaiser Chiefs and the Sex Pistols next summer.

A tek da je Police na prvom mestu? E to nikad ne bih pogodio

[Gooky]

pa ja sam jedino za Police i pretpostavljao da su u vrhu, jer su i u Evropi isto jako dobro prosli

Jay Reatard Toronto Snafu: Promoters Respond
Reatard signs worldwide multi-album deal with Matador


As previously noted in these pages, Jay Reatard pulled the plug just a few songs into his April 17 gig at Toronto's Silver Dollar after rowdy fans wrecked his (and his bandmates') gear. At least, that's how Jay put it in a MySpace message he posted in response to the incident. Jay blamed poor security and a club filled way past capacity for the mess, decrying "greedy promoters...who don't care about doing right by the audience."

The promoters Jay called out in his MySpace message, however, strongly disagree. One of them is Jeff Cohen, co-owner of Against the Grain, the promotions company that put on the Silver Dollar show. As Cohen wrote in an email to Canada's ChartAttack.com, "Jay's rant on his blog...was not only highly unprofessional[,] it was factually inaccurate. While passionate, it was just a blame the promoter diatribe.

"Not cool. [In my opinion], Jay, everyone who works with him, his agent, his label, the promoters he works with, and especially his fans, deserve much better."

Cohen specifically takes issue with Reatard's handling of the situation (Jay did tear some kid's shirt and jack that kid in the face, after all) and insists there was, as the ChartAttack.com story puts it, "a security person present." He also calls into question Reatard's claim that he "refunded people's money out of [his] own pocket" by insisting Reatard did not take up an offer from Cohen's colleague, ATG co-owner Craig Laskey, to refuse pay and refund show attendees.

Silver Dollar booker Dan Burke, who launched into an anti-Jay Reatard onstage rant following the performer's abrupt departure from the Toronto show, also spoke out to ChartAttack.com. He claimed there were not, as Reatard suggested, 350 people at the Silver Dollar show, and also noted that previous events at the club in question have attracted crowds on par with the Reatard gathering, sans incident. Neither Burke nor the ChartAttack.com report, however, mention how many people were in fact at the Jay Reatard gig.

In non-sensational Jay Reatard news, the previously reported "Painted Shut" 7" single arrives in late May thanks to Matador. The label's signing of Reatard has been extended to a worldwide, multi-album deal, with a brand new Jay Reatard full-length due in early 2009. Additionally, Jay's former label, In the Red, is preparing a collection of early Reatard singles for June release.

For the latest Jay Reatard tour dates, including a newly-minted happening with another crowd-friendly bunch called Les Savy Fav, check out the listings below. And for an admittedly awesome shot of a smiling Ripped Shirt Dude just microseconds before Jay Reatard clocks him in the face, check out photo #11 here.

Novi singl Oasisa 29. septembra, album 6.oktobra!!!


NEW ALBUM & SINGLE DETAILS ANNOUNCED
Yesterday at 10:52pm
‘The Shock Of The Lightning’ new single out September 29th

‘Dig Out Your Soul’ new album out October 6th

Oasis are set to return later this year with a new single and their seventh studio album. The single,‘The Shock Of The Lightning’ is released on September 29th and the album, ‘Dig Out Your Soul’ follows in October; it is the first new Oasis music since last year’s ‘Lord Don’t Slow Me Down’, taken from the on the road film of the same name. ‘Dig Out Your Soul’ sees Dave Sardy return to the producer’s chair following his work on their 2005 album, ‘Don’t Believe The Truth’. Recorded at Abbey Road and mixed in Los Angeles, all four members once again contribute tracks, but the recording marks a new approach for the band as described by the band’s principle songwriter, Noel:

“I wanted to write music that had a groove; not songs that followed that traditional pattern of verse, chorus and middle eight. I wanted a sound that was more hypnotic; more driving. Songs that would draw you in, in a different way. Songs that you would maybe have to connect to - to feel.”

LONDON - David Gilmour is sorry to disappoint, but there will be no Pink Floyd reunion. He’s having too much fun on his own.

The British rock icon raised fans’ hopes when the band performed at the Live 8 charity concert in London in 2005. It was the first time in almost a quarter of a century that Gilmour and estranged bandmate Roger Waters had appeared onstage together, and the atmosphere was electric.

But once was enough, Gilmour says.

The gig itself was “excellent, really enjoyable,” said the 62-year-old guitarist and singer.

“The rehearsals were less enjoyable. The rehearsals convinced me it wasn’t something I wanted to be doing a lot of,” Gilmour said, speaking from the Astoria, his houseboat-cum-recording studio on the River Thames.

He has a famously testy relationship with bassist and singer Waters, who walked away from Pink Floyd in 1985.

“There have been all sorts of farewell moments in people’s lives and careers which they have then rescinded, but I think I can fairly categorically say that there won’t be a tour or an album again that I take part in,” said Gilmour.

“It isn’t to do with animosity or anything like that. It’s just that I’ve done that. I’ve been there, I’ve done it.”

Still happy to play Floyd songs
Gilmour’s latest project is a solo album and tour, captured on “David Gilmour Live in Gdansk,” a double concert album and DVD to be released Sept. 23 on Columbia Records.

Recorded during the final date of Gilmour’s 2006 “On An Island” tour, it’s as meaty a package as you’d expect from a prog-rock colossus.

There’s the concert’s monumental backdrop of the Polish shipyards where the trade union Solidarity was founded in 1980. There’s a crackerjack band that includes Pink Floyd keyboard player Richard Wright and Roxy Music guitarist Phil Manzanera. And there’s a 40-piece string section from the Baltic Philharmonic Symphony to enhance Gilmour’s blend of classic rock, jazz and blues influences.

The discs include a fan-friendly mix of solo material, much of it from the “On An Island” album, and venerable Floyd songs: “High Hopes,” “Comfortably Numb,” “Shine On You Crazy Diamond” and the 25-minute “Echoes,” which Gilmour said was “the highlight of the show.”

“It’s wonderful to have that huge catalog of songs to pick and choose through. We were doing songs I’ve never done. There are several that haven’t been played for 30-odd years. And some real old favorites.”

Gilmour says he’s happy these days to play the old Floyd songs.

“I don’t like the idea of going out without a new album, without some new music to play,” he said. “But people have come long distances and paid a lot of money to see a show. I want to give them a bit of what they expect and will enjoy.”

Finding inspiration in Poland
Gilmour didn’t originally intend the album to be a record of a single show. He had recorded every night of the tour, but found “a lot of the tracks that seemed to be the best ones were coming from this show in Gdansk.”

The concert was organized to mark the 26th birthday of Solidarity, the union that rose from the docks of Gdansk to topple Poland’s Communist regime, and drew 50,000 fans.

“It had a special resonance to it. The place, this sort of rather derelict shipyard, was really exciting. It was the last show of our whole tour,” Gilmour said. “And there were also about 10 times as many people as we’d played to on any of the other dates on the tour.”

The album — like most of Gilmour’s work for the last two decades — was mixed and assembled aboard the Astoria, moored along a tranquil stretch of the River Thames near London.

The boat was built a century ago, at the then-enormous cost of 20,000 pounds, for Fred Karno, a music-hall impresario whose proteges included the young Charlie Chaplin. Gilmour bought it in 1986, seduced by the Edwardian elegance of its mahogany-paneled cabins, marble bathrooms and mother-of-pearl light switches.

“I hadn’t really thought about using it as a studio,” he said, looking around the tiny musicians’ room, crammed with drum kit and guitars. “It was just too beautiful to miss out on.”

He soon began to use it as a music-making base. The post-Waters Pink Floyd albums “The Division Bell” and “A Momentary Lapse of Reason” were recorded here, as were Gilmour’s solo albums, including “On An Island.”

The vessel’s cramped cabins are packed with high-end recording equipment and assorted instruments, including the black Fender Stratocaster that has been Gilmour’s stalwart guitar since 1970.

You know you're a rock star when...
Fender has just produced a signature guitar in his honor, the David Gilmour Black Strat. It’s one of those things — like a floating recording studio — that you get when you’re a rock legend.

Gilmour notes drily that there are two versions of the guitar. One has all the same knicks and bashes as Gilmour’s own — “the distressed jeans model.” Then there’s a pristine instrument buyers will have to bash up themselves.

“Which will cost less,” Gilmour said. “Because it’s more work distressing it.”

Casual in jeans, black T-shirt and jacket, the gray-haired Gilmour is a low-key rock star, who seems to relish his role as family man — he has eight children from his two marriages.

He says he plans to make a new album, but for now he’s content to take it easy.

“I think if you are going to get on in this career or any other career you’ve got to be fairly ruthless while you’re climbing up to the to the point in the career you want to get to,” he said. “That moment is long past for me. I don’t have to scramble over the bodies to reach the top anymore.”

He says music is “one of the important things in my life, but it’s not the only thing. My family are more important. If I had to give one up, I wouldn’t be giving my family up.”

Coldplay prestaje sa radom?


Frontmen i pevač benda "Coldplay"-a Kris Martin nagovestio je da će se bend rasformirati do kraja 2009. godine.



Pevač je za "Daily Express" izjavio da smatra da bend treba da prestane sa radom pre nego što ostare i da želi da ode uz prasak, tj. dok su još na vrhu, pa će zato zato bend raditi što više u predstojećoj godini.

,,Imam 31 godinu i mislim da bendovi ne treba da rade posle 33. godine", dodao je Martin.

Veoma diskutabilna teza, mozda cemo otvoriti neki topic za raspravu

Vest koja kasni ravno cetrdeset godina. Ovo su trebali da izjave jos 1968., nakon odlaska Syda Barretta.
