[U.S.A. creative anarco-punx - 1] BLACKBIRD RAUM (Anarco-folk, Santa Cruz, California) - Under the starling host (Lp 2009)
[Puj] Malgrado la pessima pubblicità che gli amabasciatori della sub-cultura americana (Mtv, ad esempio) fanno alla musica punk d'oltreoceano, esiste negli States una vitale e gioiosa scena anarco-punk, capace di proposte entusiasmanti. Some of them, starting from BlackBird Raum, a U.S. actually quite famous in the underground, but not in our country. The band was formed in the early zero by a group of punks and squatters of Santa Cruz, California. Accustomed as they were living in abandoned flats minds in tree houses (ie no current), the idea of \u200b\u200bforming a band ch and made use of electric instruments was almost OVV ia. Each learned to play acoustic instruments (accordion, banjo, fiddle, washboard , which is a tool designed to wash the clothes, but then spread as a percussion instrument in pr imissime jazz-band) ed altri addirittura se ne costruirono di propri con materiali di recupero (un componente della band infatti suona una specie di contrabbasso costruito con un bastone, una corda e un catino, noto come " bidofono "). Nel corso degi anni i Blackbird Raum hanno messo a punto un sound unico, a metà strada tra l'anarco-punk e il folk anglosassone, senza cadere in cliché né dell'una né dell'altra parte: come se una string-band americana degli anni '20 si mettesse a suonare le cover dei Conflict...
I testi parlano di eco-radicalismo e istanze libertarie, ma sono anche ricchi di elementi fantasy, nonché di riferimenti ad eventi e personagg i storici, e sono accomunati dalla sacrosanta idea that modern civilization is destined for collapse if it continues to destroy the resources and pollute Pacing nte. One of the most famous songs is Blackbird Raum intitalata " Silent Spring" ( Silent spring), which is also the title of the famous essay by Rachel Carson, American poster for the deep-ecology, published in 1962.
Backbird Raum I recently did a tour in the States called " Burning gasoline, as long as there is still a thing of el kind ..." in 2010 and one in ... Alaska! They are the wet dream of every musician punk can go on tour and play everywhere, without depending by the electric current and without carrying tons of amplifiers. Their last album "Under the starling host" is a masterpiece!

[PUJ] Blessed are those who were in the basement of Villa Vegan, last May, the concert or From the Depths of !

SKAGOS / Panopticon (Cascadian black metal, Vancouver / Louisville) - Split Album (LP 2010)
[PUJ] Cascadian black metal? Yes, Cascadian black metal! " Cascadia" is the name of a region which, on maps, not esis you. Runs along the mountain chain known as the Falls that winds through northern California and Alaska and corresponds, roughly, to the states of Oregon, Washington and British Columbia (in Canada West).
In the '70s the American environmental movement-inspired eco-radical libertarian and began to assert the independence of this mega-region considered unique not only in terms of geological and environmental but also socio-political . They claim the secessionists, the Cascadia is a region which has always prevailed a culture of environmental protection, genuine democracy and social justice in the name of ecological issues, and libertarian pacifist, and in compliance with the anti-capitalist way of life that the inhabitants of this area have always practiced, the Movement for the Independence of Cascadia believes that the American government is not suitable to represent the interests and aspirations of the region. The Cascadia is therefore a region framed by boundaries drawn on maps yet, but in the end, even an ideal state, a dream (impossible?): A country governed by laws that place before all the protection of ' environment and ensure the residents a life in harmony with it. This may really exist in a globalized talistico leaders, aiming at standardization and calming local peculiarities?
The Cascadia is also the region (geographical and ideal) in which it has developed an exciting new sub-genre: the Cascadian black metal, in fact, the result of a recent phenomenon that until a decade ago seemed unthinkable: the approach of the punk / hc-inspired anarcho-libertarian and black metal. In the U.S., some groups crust (such as Iskra ) initiated this osmosis over the years, creating a hybrid that is now quite widespread: the so-called blackened crust. But many are not passs the punk sub-genres, but jumped directly to the black-metal, in identifying ancestral pagan spirituality embodied by this kind of music an ideal instrument to convey the message eco-wise common to many radical groups crust and punk.
The best known of these bands is certainly one of Wolves in the throne room of Olympia, champions of Cascadian black metal, but in the underground if they uncover many others, often by ex-punk fomate involved diy scene, like Boreal, Wake, Addaura, Panopticon and Skagos; and bands together under tichetta of "Cascadian black-metal", united by the same instances ecolgiste and libertarian although not all grown on the region.
Austin, of Panopticon, he tells us " Though I lived as a teenager in the local punk scene and played in some punk-band , I have always loved the black metal. Naturalment and I have also always refused all that shit right hand that the genre has always brought with him: homophobia, racism, Satanism and other crap you tut. Anyway, experience has taught me that a lot of punk-rock write lyrics stupid, sexist and homophobic. For the rest, it was a satisfaction to speak to many issues of metalheads eco-radical and anti-capitalist Spread across a musical genre known to them, and propose a different music to punk, but who talks about things that interest them. " Austin is the only fixed component the band and lives in Louisville, Kentucky, that is not in Cascadia. Natives of the region are Isaac and Ray, members of Skagos Vancouver, Canada, with Panopticon shared a split album in 2010. They also come from the punk / hc (Ray Iskra was the bass player). The black-metal
Skagos Panopticon and fits the pattern laid down by some modern black metal groups, whose sound is heavily contaminated by post-rock Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Mono and Slowdive, reverberated in the use of guitars, often in growing, in alternating outbursts at blast-beat scores dilated and ambient passages (In "Brace steaming" of Skagos there are a couple of minutes almost reggae / dub, and the following " A dry sterile thunder without rain " opens with a score folk / ambient and leads to a poignant ballad voice and acoustic guitar, the Panopticon, known to use the banjo, which is a tool that refers to bluegrass and traditional American music, are no different, with the songs that introduce shamanic " A message from the missionary 'and the evocative xylophone " Watching"). Below is a split album between the two bands: personally, play black metal since 1993, and if I say that groups like the Panopticon, and have renewed my Skagos entusiasmo per il genere... beh, credeteci!
