I am empressed
...by Empress and their album "Empress". Sad, hollow, aching songs that are bleakly beautiful. Try a short sample of All We've Seen.rm or a full one of "Planless" [from epitonic]. Reminds me of Low.

Why I Write Such Good Songs
Nice trial to make some postrock songs with acoustic guitars, by Kleenex Girl Wonder. Listen to an mp3 from the forthcoming (maybe this month) EP "Why I Write Such Good Songs", provided by March Records. Carramba! [via us]

Did ya know that they are training cats to shit on toilets?

Countrymusic is not only a man's world
No, no, no. What are you thinking? Take a lecture in Honky-tonk by Julie Lee or Libbi Bosworth on audiogalaxy. Twangy and powerful voices, they write.

Crazy - the soundtrack
You remeber Kekswichsen? There has also been released a soundtrack from the film Crazy now. And there have been some nice songs in this film - by Echt, Notwist, Pelzig or Vic Chesnutt for instance.

Songs of Blood, Honour and Discretion
Via Falter (print): Il canto di malavita - la musica della mafia. In Italy officially forbidden music with charm, released in Germany (PIAS/Edel). Kalabrien Maffiosi are singing about sadness, danger, blood, honour and death. Listen to the audiosamples, sono fantastico! Neither miss the Links!

The good and the bad news
Just had a phonecall with h_h who told me a good and a bad news about our new server.
The good one: We can provide most of our mp3s again without any referrer-check, which means that it is no problem to link or download or stream them if you can. They say they will swallow our data traffic. But don't tell anybody!
The bad one: Things with the streamingserver will not get any smoother. The problem is not the server but several systems and default players of the homecomputers.

The big Change
#1 This afternoon we are changing from TIV to Silverserver. This could cause some unsteadiness for the next days.

#2 Silverservers are also providing us a streamingserver so that we can provide you with m3u-audiosamples and maybe with more in the future. Things are not running smooth right now. We are testing and ask you for helping us.

Let me make a first trial with songs of Smog's wonderful last album "Dongs of Sevotion":
Strayed play | Dress Sexy At My Funeral play

It would be very kind to report me whether the songs are streaming with your system, if 32k is too much for modems, which player is opening and which system you have.

I forgot the Mascheks
Mascheks have also been there yesterday at the Volksstimmefest in the Wiener Prater. Mascheks are doing radio-plays, slide-shows, live-synchronisation, stage-discussions and songs that should be seen and listened to - most individual humor. Watch out their videos for instance. Personal favorite is "der graue star" - bettermost styrian accent.

In a word
I visited the chicks on speed concert at Volksstimmefest yesterday and tell you it was the best concert I have seen since FSK two years ago. (And how should it be concerned with FSK? A bit, cause chicks are originally also from Munic and covering Euro Trash Girl. Indeed they should not do that!) To describe their live music in a word: It's white-euro-trash-art-highspeed-chaos-disco-punk. Yes, that's it.
