International EBM Day celebrates Electronic Body Music!

On February 24, Body Beats productions and De Casino will celebrate once again the fantastic genre of Electronic Body Music and the musical influence of for instance Front 242, Belgium's best known EBM export product!

This year they'll have 5 live band on stage while resident DJ Borg will play the obligated EBM records on the afterparty!

CAT RAPES DOG (DK/SE)

Fast, hard and furious! These Scandinavian pioneers of electropunk return to the city of Sint-Niklaas after no less than 37 years! Their previous, first and only visit to St-Niklaas took place in the late, but renowned Cadillac Club. In 2024 the band is back, alive and kicking which they proved successfully at festivals like Wave-Gotik-Treffen (Leipzig) and Amphi (Cologne).

SPIKE HELLIS (USA) from Los Angeles is coming to Belgium for the first time! The electronic duo with their typical American Wax Trax sound, previously toured with ADULT., Kontravoid, Choir Boy, Soft Kill, Portrayal of Guilt, Plack Blague, Pixel Grip and Twin Tribes. The combo played at renowned festivals such as Cold Waves, Substance, Sanctum, Sound and Fury and Vampire's Ball. Expect a harsh musical gospel of disappointment in life and sarcasm!

MILDREDA (B) is one of the projects with which the musical jack-of-all-trades Jan Dewulf has been expressing himself since the 1990s. With a brand new album 'Blue-Devilled', the successor to the brilliant and well-received 'I was Never Really There' (2021), Mildreda's thundering freight train is firmly back on track.

HUMAN STEEL (D) consists of two seasoned musicians, from Poland and Germany respectively, who serve us a creative cocktail of electronic music powered by acoustic drums and their international friendship. The sound is powerful, mechanical yet lively and, above all, extremely danceable. The songs are intense and often surprise with interesting breaks and tempo changes. The texts are largely written in English, but also in German and Polish.

ZYNIK 14 (B) is "Old School EBM" made in the Belgian East Cantons! Zynik 14 is formed by brothers Frederic and Lancelot. These gentlemen have released 4 studio albums since their inception and also on stage they do not hide their passion for electronic music.

International EBM Day viert Electronic Body Music!

Op 24 februari zullen Body Beats productions en De Casino opnieuw het fantastische genre van Electronic Body Music vieren, evenals de muzikale invloed van bijvoorbeeld Front 242, België's bekendste exportproduct op het gebied van EBM!

Dit jaar zullen er 5 live bands op het podium staan, terwijl resident DJ Borg de verplichte EBM-platen zal draaien op de afterparty!

CAT RAPES DOG (DK/SE) Snel, hard en furieus! Deze Scandinavische pioniers van electropunk keren na maar liefst 37 jaar terug naar de stad Sint-Niklaas! Hun vorige, eerste en enige bezoek aan St-Niklaas vond plaats in de voormalige, maar gerenommeerde Cadillac Club. In 2024 is de band terug, springlevend en succesvol gebleken op festivals als Wave-Gotik-Treffen (Leipzig) en Amphi (Keulen).

SPIKE HELLIS (VS) uit Los Angeles komt voor de eerste keer naar België! Het elektronische duo met hun typisch Amerikaanse Wax Trax-geluid, toerde eerder met ADULT., Kontravoid, Choir Boy, Soft Kill, Portrayal of Guilt, Plack Blague, Pixel Grip en Twin Tribes. Het duo speelde op gerenommeerde festivals zoals Cold Waves, Substance, Sanctum, Sound and Fury en Vampire's Ball. Verwacht een harde muzikale boodschap van teleurstelling in het leven en sarcasme!

MILDREDA (B) is een van de projecten waarmee de muzikale duizendpoot Jan Dewulf zich sinds de jaren 90 uitdrukt. Met een gloednieuw album 'Blue-Devilled', de opvolger van het briljante en goed ontvangen 'I was Never Really There' (2021), is de donderende goederentrein van Mildreda stevig terug op het goede spoor.

HUMAN STEEL (D) bestaat uit twee ervaren muzikanten, respectievelijk uit Polen en Duitsland, die ons een creatieve cocktail van elektronische muziek serveren, aangedreven door akoestische drums en hun internationale vriendschap. Het geluid is krachtig, mechanisch maar levendig en vooral uiterst dansbaar. De nummers zijn intens en verrassen vaak met interessante breaks en tempowisselingen. De teksten zijn grotendeels in het Engels, maar ook in het Duits en Pools.

ZYNIK 14 (B) is "Old School EBM" gemaakt in de Belgische Oostkantons! Zynik 14 wordt gevormd door de broers Frederic en Lancelot. Deze heren hebben sinds hun oprichting 4 studioalbums uitgebracht en ook op het podium verbergen ze hun passie voor elektronische muziek niet.

NEWS This Charming Band | 40 Years Ago, The Smiths Release Their Debut Album

This Charming Band | 40 Years Ago, The Smiths Release Their Debut Album

20th of February 2024, 00:00

The severed alliance of Johnny Marr and Morrissey which exists today seemed a million miles away from the creative force that once was, 40 years ago.
On the 20th of February 1984,-35 years ago today, The Smiths self-titled debut album hit the streets. The legend was quickly born and fully impacted as the album debuted on the UK charts at number two. It was at this moment that The Smiths heralded their arrival onto the international music scene. From this point and over the next four-years they would become the dominant force on the indie and alternative music scene.

Preceded in January by the teaser single-‘What Difference Does It Make?’, supposedly Morrissey’s least favourite single, the song did however build the momentum for what was to come, hitting a high of number-twelve in the charts. The previous singles, one included here, ‘Hand In Glove’, had failed to make an impression on the charts, although the beautiful single which sparkled of Marr’s fully recognized guitar orchestra, did however catch the eye of the critics and media, they had already tipped something big from this band, thankfully they were right.

The second single ‘This Charming Man’ faired better but only broke the top-30. Such a staple of Smiths songs failed to break the top-twenty seems strange now but the public had not fully caught on. Though not originally on the album, ‘This Charming Man’ however did appear on U.S versions of the album distributed by Sire Records.

The Smiths could very well be the most significant release of the eighties. Setting a tone for the rise of other such bands at the close of the decade, unsurprisingly from the same area of Manchester-The Stone Roses, The Happy Monday’s and what came to prominence in the nineties Brit-Pop era owe a debt of gratitude to not only The Smiths as a band, but the foundations they laid in a short four-years.

The Smiths (Original 1984-Rough Trade Track List):

Side A

1. "Reel Around the Fountain" 5:58
2. "You've Got Everything Now" 3:59
3. "Miserable Lie" 4:29
4. "Pretty Girls Make Graves" 3:44
5. "The Hand That Rocks the Cradle" (quotation from "Sonny Boy" by Ray Henderson, Lew Brown and Al Jolson) 4:38

Side B

6. "Still Ill" 3:23
7. "Hand in Glove" 3:25
8. "What Difference Does It Make?" 3:51
9. "I Don't Owe You Anything" 4:05
10. "Suffer Little Children" 5:28

NEWS Damned, Damned, Damned - At 47, 47, 47!

Damned, Damned, Damned - At 47, 47, 47!

18th of February 2024, 08:00

On the 18th-of February 1977 The Damned released their debut album ‘Damned, Damned, Damned’. The most important album of the late seventies punk movement, though when it comes to The Damned they are the architects of the revolution, what punk was and the direction it was heading.

Indeed, with The Damned there was a lot of firsts, they were the first band from the United Kingdom to release and chart a punk single in ‘New Rose’ in October 1976. The first UK punk band to tour America and play the blank generations ground-zero in New York’s CBGB’s. But it is that album ‘Damned, Damned, Damned’ which is the true-milestone, it was the first album released by a UK band from the surge of punk. Eight months before The Sex Pistols released ‘Never Mind The Bollocks..”, though a more fully formed debut than the Pistols, and released while The Clash were only starting to record their self-titled debut.

Without doubt both the influence and quality contained with ‘Damned, Damned, Damned’ made this the most important album release of the nineteen-seventies.
Produced by the Stiff Records maestro-Nick Lowe (Elvis Costello, Wreckless Eric), this was old-school rock and roll fused with teenage angst and layered with escapism, atomic art aimed at the heart of the British establishment and the pretentious state with the rock music circus of the day.

Raw-energy, the essential ingredient injected into the albums twelve-tracks by Dave Vanian, Brian James(London SS), Captain Sensible, and drummer Rat Scabies. Opening with the single-‘Neat Neat Neat’, the incendiary slice of punk, released simultaneously with the album. And closing with the nod to their heroes, a cover of The Stooges ‘1970’-renamed ‘I Feel Alright’, the adventure The Damned brings the listener on is one which resonates strongly within modern society today.

The bulk of the songwriting for the release was done by guitarist Brian James, the man who many feel responsible for punk, although after the follow-up-‘Music For Pleasues’ this original incarnation would break up as Jones departed towards the end of seventy-seven. This makes ‘Damned, Damned, Damned’ that bit more special as it the original sound captured of a band hungry and striving forward.
The only moment the band slow down is the terrifying-'Feel The Pain', the rest is an all-out attack on the senses as James is turning the guitar-sound into a noise-generator than an instrument. Tracks like- 'Stab Your Back’ is perhaps too moronic a track for even The Ramones, the collection is still the finest time-capsule from a moment in time where music had possibilities regardless of how it was executed.

New Rose;

Is she really going out with him?
Ah!
I got a feeling inside of me
It's kind of strange like a stormy sea
I don't know why, I don't know why
I guess these things have got to be
I gotta new rose, I got it good
Guess I knew that I always would
I can't stop to mess around
I got a brand new rose in town
See the sun, see the sun, it shines
Don't get too close or it'll burn your eyes
Don't you run away that way
You can come back another day
I got a new rose, I got it good
Guess I knew that I always would
I can't stop to mess around
I got a brand new rose in town
I never thought this could happen to me
I feel strange, why should it be?
I don't deserve somebody this great, oh, oh
I'd better go or it'll be too late
Ah!
I got a feeling inside of me
It's kind of strange like a stormy sea
I don't know why, I don't know why
I guess these things have got to be
I got a new rose, I got her good
Guess I knew that I always would
I can't stop to mess around
I got a brand new rose in town, uh
Oh!
Na-na-no!
