The legendary Anglo-Dutch experimental rock band formed in London in 1980. The band was originally called One Day. And one day „We, the Legendary Pink Dots feel it is our duty to inform an unwary public that the new number of the Beast is 834.”

from The Getshemane Option LP by Metropolis

They frequently collaborated with Skinny Puppy’s cEvin Key, forming a side project named The Tear Garden. Key also played drums on several tracks.

In my opinion this guy is a lunatic, such as me. He has played post T-Rex lo-fi cyber punk:

These are from two reissues. The originals were released in 1980-81. The Tronics had been playing since 77 till 84 in England. The main person was Ziro Baby. Nowadays his name is Zarjaz and doin’ the Freakapuss. A split 7” with Sic Alps was released last year.

„Mert az új tulaj egy hónappal a fesztivál előtt egyszercsak bejelentette, hogy rengeteg pénzt akart kérni a területért, ráadásul előre. Semmilyen kompromisszumra nem hajlandó, inkább ne legyen semmi…
Ez lett volna a 9. Hanna.”

– olvasható egy jól értesült bennfentes facebook oldalán. Szerkesztőségünk nem érte el a Hanna szervezőit, akik a hírt egyelőre,
egyik hivatalos csatornájukon keresztül sem tették közé, sem ITT és ITT sem.

MEGJEGYZÉS: Az RNR666 vezérkar több tagja is részt vett a tavalyi rendezvényen és bár nem zárták szívükbe a Hanna Hanna kínálta programok nagy részét, minden esetre, kurva nagy faszságnak tartjuk azt amikor egy kicsinyes tetű miatt hiúsul meg egy olyan önszerveződő és kifejezetten prosperáló kezdeményezés, mint amilyen, a Csillebércre tervezett Fasztivál lett volna, vagy amilyen a Hanna Hanna fesztivál volt az elmúlt években!

Las Kellies from Buenos Aires play minimal punk while sing in Spanish, Catalan, French, Japanese and English languages.

They stand before Euro Tour Aug 5 – Oct 19 > Italy, France, Belgium, UK, Germany, Sweden, Holland, Austria, Croatia (Zagreb, Sept 18), Spain. Luckily they don’t want to save the World – „What do you daydream about when you are travelling to and from shows? – Buy a house in Uruguay by the beach with goats and ducks and growing tomatoes and buying really nice shoes.” – so I like them.

The Destruction Unit started as a synth-punk solo project by Ryan Rousseau (Reatards, Black Sunday, Digital Leather etc.) in Memphis in 2000. Then Jay Reatard (Reatards, Lost Sounds, etc.) and Alicja Trout (Lost Sounds, Black Sunday, River City Tanlines etc.) joined to him. The first 2 DU album made by them. The band has been through many members and sounds. At the moment they play psychedelic space hard rock, but „we all come from punk backgrounds and we’ve always been a punk band.”

The next RNR666 party

It’s certain already that the RNR666 supports the Canadian independent music. Yesterday were the Ketamines and there was mentioned of Mr Paul Lawton, who criticizes the Canadian music industry. Now completely accidentally another Canadian band from same city where Mr Lawton is living: Lethbridge: Fist City. By reason of their first video in fundamentalist Christians view they are “Satan worshiping reptilian hermaphrodites” who play very good noisy garage punk with a little surf and indie (but just as much as the Sonic Youth) moods. Their second song is a cover.

On the other side of the 7” is the Piss Test from Portland (US). They play classic 80s American hc-punk. I think they have some kind of Hungarian connection, because there is their second track, the Necrophilia’s subtitle: It’s Halal (halál = death in Hungarian). Oops! „halal adj 1. (of an animal or its meat) slaughtered or prepared in the manner prescribed by Islamic law.” Thanks to the punk I have become cleverer today.

 The split will be released by Drunken Sailor

1. Paul Lawton was teaching media and digital culture at the University of Lethbridge for five years and really hated it.
2. He has started a blog with Death to the Canadian Music Industry subtitle, „because I love Canadian music so much and I feel sad about the state that it’s in.”
3. He is one of the two core members of the Ketamines and plays bass:
