MORGANA vs MORGANA + TAO TE KIN + TINNITIA Live

Sorry guys that I missed TINNITIA (yeah! I was late... but it is not easy for me to be on time everywhere!!) but they always deliver their stuff in the best way so next time I will corroborate what I was told: they kicked ass!!!

Following TINNITIA, TAO TE KIN took up the stage... and everything flowed easy as they are more than happy with their release of "El Pájaro Que Da Cuerda Al Mundo" (Lengua Armada. REF: LA036 / Nooirax Producciones): a beautiful CD including a 12 page booklet which will trap you since the intro until the last second of their tenth track. Their set is furious and relaxing at the same time. That is the feeling you catch when TAO TE KIN distil their progressive way to understand metal.

It could be obvious to mention TOOL as the imminent reference but it shouldn't be understood as a clone of them: it is better to understand TOOL opened a big two folded door inviting others to enter that world of sounds... how many new rooms can be filled when going beyond that door? TAO TE KIN reserved their own one... and I believe they will be there for long releasing more good stuff like what they're been doing all of these years.

Their live is filled will color (sometimes overcolored) by the personal performance of their frontman Emilio which does not stop for a while: watching molecules in the air, giving shape to oxygen figures, fighting with the flow of air in front of him, jumping... that's a frontman. Meanwhile, the band do their job: punish your ears with the chosen tunes of their past and present history.

It was short: that's the problem when you play in a medium hall which is surrounded by homes and there is a restriction of not to pass 12:00 PM playing loud... and of course it gets shorter when you're enjoying a live set!!!

TAO TE KIN left the stage to allow MORGANA vs MORGANA start their presentation of their brand new record "SOL INVICTO" here in Madrid. In my opinion, there couldn't be other band to support them like TAO TE KIN as they evolve very similar status into the underground... Their difference (they're a five piece too) could be more in the attitude of their singer Carlos which doesn't explore acting in the same way as Emilio. Let's say excess of the other could help this last one...

Another short set (law requirements command!!) was shown, intense, closed with the encore peforming one of their banner songs "NEBULA".

Both records and can be purchased thru following sites:

Old One

Ok fellows: let's create a new potion today for you to enjoy the underground scene...

Take your melting pot (or steal it to your neighbourhood's witch... there is always one even though you don't know it) and drop 7 parts out of ten of ORANGE SUNSHINE (on vinyl... only vinyl, dudes).

Let it marinating for a while and just when you see it's boiling, add remaining 3 parts of the whole ten with early ELECTRIC WIZARD's stuff. We got the formula dudes!!! You got OLD ONE!!!!

These guys are a duo from Kentucky which deliver obscure 70'd flavoured riffings in a 4 tracks CD (first track out of five is an intro).



That makes me go to those times when I discussed long ago with people about what it was not tolerable into rock. One of the issues discussed sometimes was how can a band be only a duo... some performed the opinion these kind of acts can never survive... and once again I demonstrate they were wrong. These guys will make you forget they're only two in the same way BLACK COBRA or OM do when they perform their stuff. And just think about the stupid fact of how easy can be to get on well each other... at least, easier among three or more people!!!



These guys are one of the lots targeted by NoizeLand so, easy friends: they won't escape!!!

You can taste their music at www.oldonemusic.com or www.myspace.com/oldonemusic and show them your love... that's what you're here!!!

FU MANCHU news!!!

Southern California's heavy fuzz rock legends FU MANCHU will release their eleventh full-length album, "Signs of Infinite Power", on October 20, 2009 via Century Media Records.

Recorded at Maple Studios in Santa Ana, California by the band and producer Sergio Chavez (MOTÖRHEAD, HELMET) and mixed by Andrew Alekel (FOO FIGHTERSimage, DANZIG), "Signs of Infinite Power" could well be dubbed "a reawakening" of FU MANCHU as the record delivers monstrous doses of the group's punk energy, hard rock drive and psychedelic crunch in spades. From the instant the album's lead track "Bionic Astronautics" soars from the speakers, it is undeniably evident that FU MANCHU is as primed and hungry as ever before. The record holds the sound of a band rocking purely for the sheer joy of rocking; amps cranked to 11 and revved to maximum overdrive.

"Signs of Infinite Power" track listing:

01. Bionic Astronautics
02. Steel.Beast.Defeated
03. Against the Ground
04. Webfoot Witch Hat
05. El Busta
06. Signs of Infinite Power
07. Eyes x 10
08. Gargantuan March
09. Take It Away
10. One Step Too Far

"We're stoked to unleash 'Signs of Infinite Power' because we feel that it's the best record that we've ever made," states FU MANCHU vocalist/guitarist Scott Hill. "We're can't believe that we're going into our twentieth year as a band. The excitement and energy levels that we're feeling right now are as high as they've ever been."

In celebration of its 20th anniversary, FU MANCHU has a number of very special events planned for 2010. The band will unveil a host of plans that include rolling out both one-of-a-kind live events and extra special vinyl releases. Additionally, the VIRULENCE (pre-FU MANCHU) recordings will be remastered and packaged with the band's "1985-87 demos" and both live songs and video footage from 1987-89 under the title "If This Isn't A Dream…1985-1989". The package will be made available on both CD and LP and is slated for a winter 2009 release via Southern Lord Records.

FU MANCHU will tour the U.S. this fall in support of "Signs of Infinite Power".

Originally formed in 1985 as a BLACK FLAG-influenced hardcore punk band called VIRULENCE, FU MANCHU has since become one of hard rock's most celebrated names. The band released its first single "Kept Between Trees" in 1990 and in the years following, helped give rise to a celebrated style of heavy music tagged "stoner rock" alongside peers such as KYUSS, MONSTER MAGNET and SLEEP. Since its inception, the quartet has built itself a fanatical army of loyal enthusiasts all drawn to the group's ridiculously catchy, unpretentious music, guitar-driven sound and carefree lyrics centered on "old muscle cars, choppers, vans, skateboarding and science fiction."

HEIRS, Australia

Noizeland recommends this australian band which will be playing in Madrid around september (check out their tour dates in order to not miss'em!!!). Of course, we will try to taste them live.

They have now a real tasty deal for all you f***ers just clicking on the image below.


Also, you can download their stuff right here, but remember: if they trust you, you must return the grace...

From their store/ distro site, DENOVALI records shop (check remaining releases, cool stuff):

Heirs' debut full-length "Alchera" is a 43 minute movement of oppressive instrumental power, cyclic ritualism and bleak hallucinogenic revelation. Recorded at Head Gap Studios by Neil Thomason in the heat waves of Melbourne in January 2009 and mastered by James Plotkin (Isis, Khanate, Burning Witch), the 6 pieces recorded capture the band's live volume - a blanket of sound traversing a rolling dynamic landscape. Drawing influence from Michael Gira and his Swans legacy, the sledgehammer riffs and industrial pummel of Godflesh, and continuing Stegeman's incense shrouded low-end incantations from his work with doom dealers Whitehorse, combined with Jackson's reverb-soaked noise, Alchera strips bare the needless excesses of post-rock and heavy metal in favour of something much more concise and affecting. A lurching, drugged-out specter - holding solace in one hand, and vengeance in the other. From the seething metallic buzz and bluster of the opening track "Plague Asphyx", through to the crowning low-end droning turbulence of "Russia", the recording is an archetype for an existence shrouded in confusion, joy, disappointment and addiction.
