NYHETER UKE 9 - 2010 FORHÅND 19. APRIL THE APPLES IN STEREO TRAVELLERS IN SPACE AND TIME Yep Roc YEP 2201 / YEP 2201LP 0634457221222 / 0634457221215 CD/LP Tracklist 1. The Code 2. Dream About the Future 3. Hey Elevator 4. Strange Solar System 5. Dance Floor 6. C.P.U. 7. No One in the World 8. Dignified Dignitary 9. No Vacation 10. Told You Once 11. It’s All Right 12. Next Year at About the Same Time 13. Floating in Space 14. Nobody But You 15. Wings Away 16. Time Pilot “I wanted to make a futuristic pop record, to reach out to the kids of the future. It is what I imagine their more highly-evolved pop might sound like: shiny soul music with robots and humans singing together. We are sending a pop music message through time.” So says The Apples in stereo / Elephant 6 collective mastermind Robert Schneider. The Apples’ new album and seventh studio effort, Travellers in Space and Time is the follow-up to their critically acclaimed hit album New Magnetic Wonder and their second release in association with Elijah Wood’s Simian Records. Travellers finds the studio-obsessed indie rockers continuing the hook-heavy pop mastery they achieved on New Magnetic Wonder, an album that spawned performances on Conan O’Brien and Stephen Colbert, along with numerous commercial placements (Pepsi, Samsung, New Balance) and even a performance of hit single “Energy” by the contestants of American Idol. Well over a year in the making, the new material recasts the Apples’ signature pop sounds in chrome-plated futurism, all while adding a dance-driven vibe channeling ELO, Barry Gibb, Wild Honey-era Beach Boys and Off The Wall-era Michael Jackson. FORHÅND 26. APRIL MANTRIC THE DESCENT Prosthetic 10081CD 0656191008129 CD Prosthetic Records is proud to unveil the debut album ‘The Descent’ from Norway’s MANTRIC. Formed in 2007 in Oslo, Norway from the ashes of metal visionaries, EXTOL, MANTRIC takes this pioneering songwriting approach to new, epic heights. Tracklist 1. Asylum 2013 2. Tower Of Silence 3. Symptoms 4. The Invasion 5. Spear Of Heaven 6. Cognitive Cocaine 7. Alihorn 8. Choice 9. Exorcism - In A Treacherous Kiss 10. Water Through Fire 11. Dark Passenger 12. Uro Fusing a unique, distinctly Scandinavian take on rich, challenging metal and modern punk with a powerful progressive edge, MANTRIC recorded “The Descent” in Norway, with studio guru Tue Madsen handling mixing and mastering duties. Prosthetic Records quickly recognized that something rather special was developing and are now very happy to have MANTRIC as part of their diverse roster. MANTRIC are the first worldwide signing of a European band to Prosthetic Records and vocalist and guitarist Ole Sveen commented, “Our first album using the Mantric-name does to our ears deserve to get out to lovers of hard music all over the world, and Prosthetic makes this possible. Our music embraces creativity and originality outside the limits of narrow genres, so it suits us fine to deal with a label that also values this. This is a release that is both accessible and original, catchy and complex at the same time, and we can’t wait to get it out!”. MANTRIC will showcase “The Descent” with a selection of gigs across Norway around the release date before embarking on UK, European and North American tours to support the album throughout 2010. “The Descent” is truly urgent music - just as great, challenging heavy music should be.

NYHETER UKE 9 - 2010 FORHÅND 26. APRIL THE RADIO DEPT. CLINGING TO A SCHEME Labrador LAB 105 733223300105 CD Tracklist 1. Domestic Scene 2. Heaven’s On Fire 3. This Time Around 4. Never Follow Suit 5. A Token Of Gratitude 6. The Video Dept. 7. Memory Loss 8. David 9. Four Months In The Shade 10. You Stopped Making Sense The long wait is finally over! The Radio Department’s ”Clining to a scheme” is without doubt this year’s most eagerly anticipated Swedish indie pop album. It’s been four long years, but a simple press on Play and you’ll know it’s been worth every second. “Clinging to a scheme” combines the best components from their previous albums “Lesser matters” and “Pet grief” with soul guitars, P-funk, cut/paste-beats and 70’s futuristic orchestra. Breathtaking! The Radio Dept. arrived with their album “Lesser matters” in 2003 which is commonly referred to as the most important Swedish indie pop album of the 21st century. It was embraced by press and fans all over the world. They had no less than two “Single of the week” in the NME and it, not surprisingly, ended up Top10 on the NME’s “Album of the year”-list. In 2006 Sophia Coppola chose to feature three of their songs in the film Marie Antoinette that further helped them to achieve worldwide recognition and the same year the chart-topping and critically acclaimed album “Pet grief” was released. In the end of 2009 “Lesser matters” came to be one out two Swedish albums to appear on NMEs Greatest Albums of the Decade-list. “This album is a miniature classic - here’s hoping indie snobbery doesn’t condemn it to the mists of time (The Top 100 Greatest Albums of the Decade)” NME The Radio Department’s releases have been referred to as The perfect mix between Saint Etienne and early The Jesus and Mary Chain and The best songs Pet Shop Boys never wrote and the album you’d hoped My Bloody Valentine did after ”Loveless”. And perhaps both comparisons makes sense. In a way. But the truth is that Sweden’s No. 1 alternative pop geniuses only sound like one band - themselves. The band will do a handful of gig in May this year and a longer tour is expected in the fall of 2010. FORHÅND 26. APRIL JESSE MALIN & THE ST. MARKS SOCIAL LOVE IT TO LIFE SideOneDummy SD 1415 / SD 1415-1 0603967141528 / 0603967141511 CD/LP Tracklist Burning The Bowery All The Way From Moscow Disco Ghetto The Archer St. Marks Sunset Lowlife In A Highrise Burn The Bridge Revelations Black Boombox Lonely At Heart After three critically acclaimed solo records, dozens of world tours and TV appearances, Jesse Malin found himself back in New York City questioning his next move. From his days fronting seminal hardcore trio Heart Attack and glam punks D Generation, then seven years on the road as a solo artist, Malin had cultivated a devout fan base. He’d shared stages with everyone from The White Stripes to Counting Crows, The Hold Steady to Lucinda Williams, but felt like he was losing the plot. Malin contemplated going back to school, becoming a standup comedian or a Las Vegas wedding DJ, and even started work on a documentary film about DC hardcore Rastafarians The Bad Brains. For over a year he didn’t play or record. When asked by a Hollywood screenwriter to pen songs for a film about author J.D. Salinger, Malin — a fan of Catcher in the Rye and other Salinger works — traveled to Cornish, NH hoping to speak to the famous recluse. In typical punk-rock fashion, instead of getting the interview, Malin landed at the local precinct for trespassing and was released only after the cops watched his video duet with Bruce Springsteen for “Broken Radio” on YouTube and were convinced he was just a writer doing research. Though he never met Salinger (who passed away this past January), Malin made the most of the experience by writing “The Archer” and “Lonely at Heart”—two songs that would make him want to work again and become the basis for his new album. Over the summer of 2009, in the basement of Avenue A watering hole Hi-Fi, the songs came forth. Malin, with impresario Don DiLego, drummer Randy Schrager, guitarist Matt Hogan, and bassist/DJ Tommy USA, worked with his newly formed band to bash out an album’s worth of gritty anthems, and The St. Marks Social was born. A solid band, but one with an open door to Malin’s community of musician friends - longtime partner in crime Ryan Adams, pop singer Mandy Moore, fellow label mate Brian Fallon, and former bandmates from D Generation Howie Pyro and Danny Sage - the Social is a group effort to keep the P.M.A. Says Malin, “To me, rock ‘n’ roll is an exorcism that begins every night when the sun goes down, the music starts playing, and the spirits start flowing. It helps to say things in public over dirty microphones. It’s a way to spit out the poison.” When Jesse met producer Ted Hutt (Lucero, Flogging Molly, The Gaslight Anthem) one drunken night at a local bar, their talk of making a record fast, loose, and raw, was the beginning of Hutt’s quest to create a record that would encompass Malin’s roots and evolution—from hardcore thrasher to punk/folk singer-songwriter. The album’s basic tracks were laid in three days at Greenpoint, Brooklyn’s Mission Studios, and the rest at Sonic Youth’s Think Tank Studios in Hoboken, NJ. Filled with the characters Malin does best—messengers and misanthropes, hipsters and hypocrites—and as always, his constant themes of redemption, nightlife, heartbreak, and survival, LOVE IT TO LIFE—a sentiment taken from a ticket stub Joe Strummer autographed for Jesse—was built with desperate optimism that shouts in gang vocals that no matter how bad it gets, you’re never alone.
