The Magnetix is a French garage rock’n’roll duo. On the occasion of their 15th anniversary they have released 3 EPs on 3 different labels this year. 3 simple questions about records to Looch Vibrato:

What was the first own record in your life? 

Sonny Terry & Brownie McGhee – Back Country Blues. I was 14 years old, I was with a friend and found it in his father’s disco a blast… 1 year after my uncle gave me an harmonica and I started to play blues music with guys more older than me, it sounded like shit white blues. 2 years after I’ve discovered the „real white blues” with Animals. At this time it was a new kind of music for me with Standells, Seeds, Yardbirds, Remains,  Music Machine etc…, in the same time I listened to Syd Barrett .

Note: Sonny Terry (1911-1986) was a blind blues harmonica player, Brownie McGhee (1915-1996) was a singer and guitarist. They were a pair since 1942 and played Piedmont blues. It’s differentiated from other styles by its ragtime-based rhythms.

Which record made the biggest influence on you?

In a first time, like i said a lot of 60’s bands, and a record like „V.U.” Velvet Underground, „Piper At The Gates Of Dawn” Pink Floyd or „Closer” Joy Division change a lot of things in my vision of music, but 1 concert change really my life to play, The Mummies in Bordeaux in 1994, wild, raw, kick my ass, i thought ” I want to do mess like that”

What was the last record that you heard?
The last best one for me is Cyclops Reap by White Fence.

This coming from a Black Flag fan of ALL eras (except this one). „ „This is embarrassing. Terrible idea, terrible record, a sad cash grab from a once amazing band.”

see this > MoE at Müszi

A MoE egy zenekar Norvégiából, amely ismeri és keveri a minimalista kompozíciókat a kísérleti és alternatív megközelítésekkel. Ez a zene egyáltalán nem próbál illeszkedni a rock műfajába, sőt számtalan esetben lépi át a rock, illetve a zaj határait. Teszi ezt hangosan és hevesen, amíg egyre közelebb kerül a hallgató az egészséges őrültségig.

The Norwegian band MoE is known for mixing their minimalistic compositions with alternative and experimental approaches that fails to fit in the rock genre. With countless collaborations exceeding the borders of rock and noise, MoE seeks the absolute presence in the execution of the music. Loud and violently, they molest their instruments and brings the listener closer to a healthy insanity.

The Steam Engine was one of the best Hungarian metal bands. The last EP

The guitarist, Tibi Rebák replied to my questions

What was the first own record in your life? Please write some words about it!

Metallica – St Anger. In contrast with the public opinion, I think it’s one of the best Metallica albums. It’s full of huge riffs and themes. It gives me many more so musically as lyrically. Some years later there was a film, Some Kind of Monster. It helps understand this album, the then chaotic years, and places the full Metallica-phenomenon to another view.

Which record made the biggest influence on you?

I can’t and don’t want go under five albums. Rather see this video; it exercises really great influence on me

If you don’t recognize him, click!

What was the last record that you heard?

The Russian Cirlces’ new album, the Memorial turns round and round nowadays. I have mixed feelings. Unfortunately they made a mistake, previously published the highly best song of the album, Deficit, and compared to this almost perfect track there are few outstanding moments, for example the Burial and the Lebaron. Maybe the sound was never so much metal than now; in some places it is wholly Norwegian. Despite its shortness the album is homogenous throughout. Well, it’s one of the best things of this year smoothly. Moreover I can see them on November 14 in Budapest with the Pozvakowski. Perfect.

All of Steam Engine records are free!
