SOY CUBA (I AM CUBA)

Man, I GOTTA see this movie. Just saw the below clip over at The Hound Blog. Makes me gooey...



The Trailer


Supposedly the whole movie is a bit of a heavy handed soviet propoganda piece, but fuck, gotta be worth it just for the visuals... Anybody seen it?

to get off this list, reply saying: "Godwin claims that all screamed rock vocals are actually inspired by the sound of the 'homesexual penetration of the male', and whip crack drum beats are the first step on the path that leads directly to steamy homosexial S&M."

YOUR ANIMAL

The exquisite but now sadly defunct Your Animal are regrouping (with Liam from My Disco subbing for Jarrad on the bass) to do one last show before Monty knocks out a kid (or dies or moves to yugoslavia or something like that, i forget which). They did a weird kind of dark Twin Peaksy doom laden vocal group sound that really got to me, and theres a little hole in my heart now that they're gone. I always knew they probably wouldn't last that long so i savoured each performance and recorded a few from out in the crowd. Heres some videos from an early gig at the old bar:





And here's some audio from their last gig at The Old Bar.

"Joey the Pouch Rider"

"You Never Hurt The One you Love"

"Baby It's You"


The final gig (for some time anyway) is in the wonderful cellar of the Grace Darling Hotel on smith st, next Sat the 16th of October, with Sophie Brous, Clairy Brown and Amy Wild Horses on the DJ'ing. I'll see you down there...
