The Inbetweeners

Skins ya dio su ultimo respiro la cuarta temporada esta en proceso y no sera hasta el 2010 que sepamos algo nuevo, ha sido justo en la publicidad de E4 mientras se emitía Skins cuando me tope con el trailer promocional de la segunda temporada de The Inbetweeners, ¿pero quienes diablos son los Inbetweeners?

The Inbetweeners es una serie de tendencia cómica que en su primera temporada contó con 6 episodios realizada otra vez por Channel 4 desde un primer momento la serie no se parece o ninguna otra que por lo menos yo haya visto, Will, Simon, Neil y Jay son 4 amigos que no pretenden ser ni son los mas populares de su escuela aunque tampoco son unos nerds antisociales, sus historias no son nada que no le podría pasar a cualquiera, la desesperación por perder la virginidad, una licencia de conducir que no parece fácil de sacar para que después tu padre te regale un auto barato, tu corazón roto luego de tu primer amor, o simplemente esas salidas entre amigos que a veces resultan en nada pero que no dejan de ser divertidas, definitivamente te vas a identificar con alguno de estos Inbetweeners, como si no estuviera todo completo las historias se desarrollan con un fondo que combina la música de los Arctic Monkeys, Kate Nash, Morning Runner (OST) The Kooks, o muchas canciones de The Wombats.

Los capítulos son algo caprichosos de encontrar, pero se encuentran. Ocupando el mismo horario de Skins, la esperadisima segunda temporada de The Inbetweeners se estrena este jueves 2 de Abril y este es el Trailer...

Last.fm ya no será gratis

Last.fm uno de los mejores servicios que exista ha anunciado hoy a través de su blog que a partir de Abril comenzaran a cobrar alrededor de 4 dolares al mes por el servicio de Radio, exceptuando a EE.UU. el Reino Unido y Alemania, las criticas han comenzado aunque todo esto parecía estar muy cerca a propósito de todas las restricciones y demás problemas que afrontan los consumidores de música, un servicio tan bueno no podía durar por mucho.

Ten en cuenta que este cambio solo afectara a la radio (las primeras 30 canciones serán gratis) tus scrobbling, el chat, las recomendaciones y demás seguirán siendo gratis.

Panda Bear, Take Pills (Video)

Pues la cuestión aquí seria no perder vigencia, ya que la canción "Take Pills" que estrena vídeo en realidad es de hace mucho y no representa novedad alguna, aunque observar una vez mas algún experimento visual de Panda Bear nunca esta de mas.

UNKLE, Heaven (Video)

Hace tiempo que no hablamos de UNKLE, habia rumores sobre la realización de un vídeo para "Heaven" tema en el que interviene la voz de Gavin Clark y que apareció por primera vez en el OST de "Odyssey In Rome Titles", para luego ser incluido como b-side en el single "Hold My Hand", los rumores se veían lejanos, pero por fin podemos ver el resultado aunque solo haya sido extraído de "Fully Flared", aquel espectacular film de Skaters en llamas, y el tema, pues otra maravilla de James Lavelle para variar.

SoTB pequeño de 2 años, aun

Para mi las vacaciones ya se terminaron oficialmente, pocos posts y eso, el café el sueño y demonios! hoy es 21 de Marzo y recordé a tiempo los ya 2 años de existencia de este espacio, blog, desfogadero o como quieras llamarlo, la broma se convirtió en afición desde el 20 de Marzo del 2007 y aquí sigo.

SoTB ha transformado su fin de a pocos, claro que hay muchos proyectos y a veces poco tiempo, nada mas allá de lo que una sola persona pueda hacer, esencialmente independiente, tu preferencia y visitas han radicado solamente en mi gusto desigual de todos los días, mi casi obsesión con UNKLE, los Travis de toda la vida, la electrónica pasajera, el sabor de lo desconocido y todo lo que se haga en "aquella isla".

El toque nacional hacia mucha falta y MAP me ha ofrecido mucho mas de lo que podía pedir, no se siente mal que bandas a las que uno sigue te mencionen (Catervas, ERA) y pasen la voz sobre este lugar, aunque ahora mismo el blog sigue medio caleta para Perú, tu me entiendes pues brother.

795 comentarios, 722 entradas, mas de 300000 visitas, muchos mp3, pocos clics en la publicidad (claro este año también me vendí al sistema jeje).

Ha sido fascinante fumarse un poquito de rock, aspirar el olor a independiente, inyectarse electrónica y resultar en ese extraño mundo que solo los que ingerimos estas drogas conocemos, gracias por tu visita Anonimo, Pepito y Juancito, Spamero y sigamos disfrutando, aun.

Breves: Patrick Wolf, Placebo

A estas alturas Patrick Wolf puede hacer lo que se le venga en gana, genio indiscutido por muchos esta próximo a lanzar un nuevo disco de nombre "The Bachelor" y el primer single es "Vulture" un tema que marca mucha diferencia en todo lo que Patrick estaba acostumbrado a hacer, ahora se define gótico y todo parece indicar que va con muchas ganas de experimentar.

The Horrors, Sea Within A Sea (Video)

De todos los adelantos que he estado escuchando de nuevos discos este es el mejor, la cuenta regresiva que pusieron en su web por fin llego a cero y junto con ese cero llego "Sea Within A Sea" el primer sencillo de "Primary Colours" lo nuevo de The Horrors que llegara a nuestras manos el próximo 4 de Mayo, mas de 8 minutos de ese toque indie punk que The Horrors ha sabido balancear de la mejor manera, magistral.

MAP (Music Alliance Pact), Marzo 2009!

Hoy es 15 de Marzo y llegamos al sexto episodio de MAP, que fascinante cierto?, bueno este mes mis seleccionados han sido Resplandor, una banda imprescindible y que regreso el año pasado con "Pleamar" quizas su mejor logro hasta ahora, el camino que esta banda tiene fuera de este país es increible y facilmente podría ser la banda que mejor ha sabido vender su estilo, ese dream-pop que ni en sueños sonaria por aquí.

Este mes no podre traducir las descripciones, pues porque hoy es domingo!.

Disfruta...

AMERICA: I Guess I'm Floating

Viernes – Glacial Change Of Pace


Viernes are an electronic rock duo from Florida who've managed to capture a thrilling loud/quiet/loud aesthetic akin to Grizzly Bear. Glacial Change Of Pace – a MAP exclusive – brings together hard-hitting psychedelia with gorgeously subdued lulls, and vice-versa, in a seamless display of sonic movements and emotions. Look out for their debut album Sinister Devices in the near future.

ARGENTINA: Zonaindie

Lola Arias & Ulises Conti – Te Voy A Vencer Por Knock-out


Lola Arias is a writer, stage director, actress and singer. Ulises Conti is a composer, producer and multi-instrumentalist musician. They started working together in 2003, making music for several theater plays. This wonderful pop-rock love song is from their debut album, El Amor Es Un Francotirador, which comprises the original music from a play with the same name that was directed by Lola and Alejo Moguillansky. The translated title of the song here is “I’m going to beat you by knockout”.

AUSTRALIA: Who The Bloody Hell Are They?

Leader Cheetah – Bloodlines


Festival State four-piece Leader Cheetah are the less manic, more soulfully melodic reincarnation of now-defunct Pharaohs. Their music is layered folk-rock twang meets brooding pop – think Neil Young’s moody younger brother in stormy weather. Bloodlines reminds me of Interpol circa the jangling guitar, tonal shift glory days of Turn On The Bright Lights. The vocals of singer Dan Crannitch are mind-addlingly beautiful and dark, especially when met with the surge of harmonies in the chorus. Leader Cheetah’s debut album The Sunspot Letters is out now on Spunk Records.

BRAZIL: Meio Desligado

Black Drawing Chalks – Big Deal


Any fan of Turbonegro, Queens Of The Stone Age and others bands who make dirty and fast rock’n’roll will love Black Drawing Chalks. Describing their sound as “music to drink and fuck to”, they come from Goiânia Rock City and have one of the most incredible shows I’ve seen on the Brazilian underground.

CANADA: I(Heart)Music

Amos The Transparent – Lemons, aka (BigFishLittlePond)


Ottawa may be Canada’s capital but it hasn’t produced much in the way of great Canadian music. Amos The Transparent are the exception to this rule. Their debut, Everything I’ve Forgotten To Forget, featured contributions from members of Stars and Broken Social Scene, and sounded like those two other bands. Lemons, aka (BigFishLittlePond) is taken from their about-to-be-released follow-up EP and finds the band inhabiting similarly stunning territory.

CHILE: Super 45

Vapourboat – Full Trains Of Dead People


Vapourboat is the Scottish project of Chilean-born Nico Carcavilla. His songs are composed entirely in his bedroom, inspired by the genius of Otis Redding. Perhaps it is this influence which makes Carcavilla sing like a man who has lived it all, when he is actually just starting. Being only 14, his songs incorporate instruments such as ukuleles, accordions, guitars and keyboards, and the Neutral Milk Hotel-esque arrangements end up developing into sad, long walks that owe their intensity to Beirut.

DENMARK: All Scandinavian

Kellermensch – All Time Low


Their name is inspired by Fjodor Dostojevski’s novel Notes From Underground, they’re heavily influenced by the German expressionist movement Die Brücke and the Esbjerg-based Danes are musically related to both Tom Waits and metal acts like Tool. Their eponymous debut album is stunningly original and a massive contribution to the already vibrant Danish rock and metal scenes.

ENGLAND: The Daily Growl

Blacklands – Come Sad Light Of Dawn


This month we return to folkiness, mainly because if I don’t cover Blacklands soon, main man Al Murphy will have moved to New York and his music will no longer be ‘England’ for MAP. It’s lovely sepia-tinged fireside acoustic pickings. Come Sad Light Of Dawn is a gorgeous song, conceived in Berlin, executed in a cottage on a desolate Yorkshire moor. You may be able to tell.

FRANCE: SoundNation

Sliimy – Trust Me


Sliimy may be best known for his cover of Britney Spears’ Womanizer but the 20-year-old is a talented artist in his own right, with his high-pitched vocals and pop sensibility reminiscent of Mika.

GERMANY: Blogpartei

Five! Fast!! Hits!!! – Keep My Name Out Your Mouth


Five! Fast!! Hits!!! have been an institution in Munich for years. No month without at least one gig, until now. Singer Raffi is moving to London while Amadeus, the true head of the band, will pay attention to his other projects such as Elektrik Kezy. Their melodic, hectic, eclectic and energetic shows will be missed.

ICELAND: I Love Icelandic Music

Ólafur Arnalds – Himininn Er Að Hrynja, En Stjörnurnar Fara þér Vel


Ólafur Arnalds is a talented 21-year-old musician, part of the new generation of classical composers. He hails from the suburban town of Mosfellsbær, just outside Reykjavík. He has toured extensively around Europe and North America with a live string quartet and last summer he supported Sigur Rós on some European shows. The song here – translated as “The sky is falling but the stars look good with your dress” – is on his Variations Of Static EP which shows off his crackling electronics and sounds.

IRELAND: Nialler9

David Kitt – Move It On


The opening track from Kittser’s sixth album The Nightsaver displays the same solid thread of songwriting and homemade invention he has always been able to produce regardless of the style inherent within thanks to his distinctive voice and ear for a tune. The album, which was recorded at the top of a winding staircase somewhere along Dublin’s Grand Canal, may turn out to be his best yet.

ITALY: Polaroid

Death In Donut Plains – Over And Above


Death In Donut Plains is the solo project of Enrico Boccioletti from Pesaro. He plays evocative electronic music with a wide range of inspirations such as Aphex Twin, Fuck Buttons, M83 and The Radio Dept. He has created some lovely covers of Liars, dEUS and Good Shoes but his latest EP has a lighter and more pop touch, in a sort of Postal Service mood.

MEXICO: Club Fonograma

Juan Son – Mermaid Sashimi


Mermaid Sashimi is the first solo album by Mexico’s most prolific contemporary vocalist, Juan Son. After the breakup of his highly celebrated band Porter, he expands his already singular vision with much confidence and complete freedom, delivering what’s arguably Mexico’s best production in a while. He has the sensibility of a story-teller and the thirst of a scientist.

NEW ZEALAND: Counting The Beat

The Verlaines – Yangtze Cod And Chips


The Verlaines were one of the bands to define the Dunedin Sound, releasing a number of classic recordings on the iconic Flying Nun Records label between 1981 and 1996. They returned in 2007 with a well-regarded album Pot Boiler and are about to release a new politically-inspired record called Corporate Moronic. Songwriter Graeme Downes has fire in his belly as you can hear on this song about the unlikely subject of a free trade agreement between NZ and China.

NORWAY: Eardrums

The Electones – Right Foot From Left


The Electones make beautiful experimental pop almost without creative boundaries and its foundation rests heavily on 60s-inspired folk and jazz. They are musical cousins to artists such as Múm, Psapp Sigur Rós and The Accidental. The Electones’ debut album If You’ll Be Null, I’ll Be Void will be released on Beatservice Records on March 23 and the band will also be a part of Birdsongs, Beesongs – the upcoming, free Eardrums compilation.

PERU: SoTB

Resplandor – Solar


Resplandor are probably better known abroad than in Peru. Formed a decade ago by Antonio Zelada and Luis Rodriguez, the band’s shoegaze dream pop sound has seen them play with The House Of Love and The Radio Dept. Their most recent album Pleamar was produced by Robin Guthrie and opener Solar is the best song on it.

PORTUGAL: Posso Ouvir Um Disco?

Corsage – Dried Up, River Blues


Corsage are an indie band from Lisbon who brought out their first EP in 2004. The following year they recorded a cover of a Scott Walker song, Angel Of Ashes, for a tribute release to the British musician by Portuguese bands. In 2007, they were featured in the compilation Novo Rock Português (“New Portuguese Rock”) and one of their songs was selected for the soundtrack of a Portuguese soap. Last month they released their new album Finito L’Amore, where you can find this month’s track, Dried Up, River Blues.

ROMANIA: Babylon Noise

Grimus – Backseat Driver


Grimus are an indie/alternative band from Cluj. They formed about four years ago and their debut record Panikon was declared Romania’s best album of 2008 by several musical/cultural communities. Although influenced by the likes of Placebo, Muse and Interpol, they manage to create a unique style and sound. On top of that, these guys are great live on stage – you not only get a performance, you’re in for a show.

SCOTLAND: The Pop Cop

We Were Promised Jetpacks – Ships With Holes Will Sink


We Were Promised Jetpacks ought to be one of the biggest stars of this year’s SXSW. They mix sweeping, sonic brilliance with a melodic accessibility that has made them Glasgow’s most talked-about band since Frightened Rabbit. Indeed, they have followed in the footsteps of their city chums by signing to FatCat, who will release their debut album These Four Walls in June. Until then, here’s a teaser from it to whet the appetite.

SINGAPORE: I'm Waking Up To...

A Vacant Affair – Connecting The Dots


A clean, clinical and almost methodical country like Singapore can only boast the undercurrent of a disenfranchised youth who find different ways of breaking the status quo. A Vacant Affair almost does that, not by being cynically political about the culture here, but by embracing the emotions that come along with it. A post-hardcore band that shares influences with the likes of Underoath and Deftones, they bring it all out in the fantastic debut album closer, Connecting The Dots. AVA steer the listener into a swimming plethora of swirling vocals and guitars as they finally explode into an extended outro that acts as a buffer between you and this crazy, mixed-up world.

SOUTH KOREA: Indieful ROK

Pavlov – The Lioness


If you’re looking for some rock’n’roll you should definitely listen to Pavlov. If you’re not, you probably should anyway. Not a big fan of the genre myself, I gave Pavlov a chance after being told to think of them as AC/DC and The Hives with a frontman who looks like Jarvis Cocker with Tourette’s – and it was not something to regret. Everything they’ve recorded has something special to keep you listening and when the last song has finished it’s hard not to play everything all over again.

SPAIN: El Blog De La Nadadora

Bedroom – Japanese Girl


Even in Spain there are still lots of people who don’t know the powerful secret that Bedroom hides. Folk, torch-songs and traditional music join together around the presence of Bert, the engine behind Bedroom. His debut album LaCasaDinsLaCasa surprised us last year – now it’s your turn to listen to Japanese Girl and discover why.

SWEDEN: Swedesplease

Two White Horses – Good Times Are Gone Forever


Good Times Are Gone Forever by the brother/sister duo Two White Horses may be about growing up and realizing childhood is over, but it’s hard not to think about the song more in the context of our present global meltdown. I love Lovissa’s voice on this track as well as the fuzzy chug-chug guitar.
