You may not know the band yet but you know many of the players. Prude is a vicious agglomeration of disparate talents working together, fronted by legendary loud mouth and conceptual terrorist Jared Louche from the seminal Machine Rock band CHEMLAB. Industrial agitator Matt Fanale from the sarcastic CAUSTIC brings blistering noise, white light guitar star Marc Olivier from London's PLASTIC HEROES is the essence of rock'n'roll, electronics guru Phil DiSiena (Infocollapse/Cyanotic) provides sleazy grooves, and producer supreme Howie Beno (13mg/Ministry/Blondie/DM) weaves it all into a merciless Molotov.
Prude's debut album 'the dark age of consent' is a wild, acid-tripped puree of 1970's New York punk and glam retrofitted with a harsh, damaged electronic edge. It's a late night, post-rock, electro-experimental punk record of distorted proportions. It's Iggy and The Stooges, Nine Inch Nails, The New York Dolls, T-Rex, 1000 Homo DJs, Roxy Music, George Bataille, Salvador Dali, and Robert Mapplethorpe all filtered through Louche's blast furnace writing. The album was recorded and produced over three years and three continents and mastered at London's legendary Abbey Road Studios by Sean Magee. It's going to blow your skull in two and have you begging for more.

FACTICE FACTORY « The White Days »
Cold Wave, Minimale, Post Punk
(Manic Depression / Holy Hour) Digipack CD / LP
Factice Factory is a French and Swiss band and first of all the story of a longtime friendship between its members and common passion for cold, minimal and synthetic sounds.
Its members include one of the original members of the band Rajna, Fabrice Lefebvre, the founder of the experimental project Thermafrost, Théotime Lefebvre and the songwritter François Ducarn.
The project mainly finds its influences in the various movements of the early eighties such as Cold Wave, Minimal Wave or Post-Punk to quote just a few.

Following excellent reviews for their recent album Familiars (press quotes below), and with their UK live return just a month away, THE ANTLERS have unveiled a visually sumptuous and suitably dreamy video for 'Refuge', the gorgeous closing track from the LP. The video was produced by Morgan Beringer and focuses on an aqueous solution that looks like cloudy dye and light slowly moving through water.

Taken from upcoming album "Elevator", to be released 15th of September 2014 on Gaphals.
Think Garbage, think a sexy Hole, think....nah listen!
Tyred Eyes second album Elevator, the sequel to last year’s Ghost Ep is out now. Tyred Eyes have since the start taken big musical and inspirational steps between releases, and the difference between last year’s Ghost Ep and new album Elevator is substantial. If Ghost Ep consisted of 4 short and direct pop songs with a lot of punk attitude, then Elevator is it’s older and more mellow sibling. The older sister with the cool band posters who smoked cigarettes and knew what bands were shown on MTV. Tyred Eyes has been influenced a lot of the lo-fi/indie bands of the 90’s, as opposed to 70’s punk, which has set a great impact on the new album.
Colin Farrell is about to be trapped in the flat circle of "True Detective" Season 2. For real. No joke. It's happening.
Okay, so HBO has yet to confirm what the actor said to The Sunday World, but his own statement is pretty straightforward.
"I'm doing the second series. I’m so excited," Farrell told the Irish newspaper."I know it will be eight episodes and take around four or five months to shoot. I know very little about it, but we’re shooting in the environs of Los Angeles which is great."
Farrell has been long-rumored to be cast among group of three detectives in Season 2 of the highly-anticipated HBO series, and he becomes the first to confirm his involvement. Taylor Kitsch, Vince Vaughn, Rachel McAdams, and Jessica Biel are among the names tossed around to join him, but Farrell did not confirm any of their involvement in the interview. Two men and one woman are expected to play the detectives, with Vaughn's name tossed around as a possible villain (or suspect).
He was able to discuss a bit of the plot, which will deal with the "bloody murder of a corrupt city businessman found dead the night before a major transportation deal."
