Carambolage waren eine der ersten deutschen New-Wave-Bands, die sich ausschließlich aus Frauen zusammensetzten. Dabei war die Gründung einer sogenannten »Frauenband« nie beabsichtigt gewesen. Vielmehr ist die Punk-Allianz um Britta Neander, Elfie-Esther Steitz und Angie Olbrich organisch aus dem Umfeld der Ton Steine Scherben erwachsen, und es war das gemeinsame Interesse am musikalischen Experiment unter Freundinnen, das sie miteinander verband. Diesen Freitag erscheinen die Reissues der ersten beiden Alben »Carambolage« (1980) und »Eilzustellung-Exprès« (1982) sowie ihr lange unveröffentlichtes Album »Bon Voyage« (1985) bei Tapete Records. _____ Carambolage never set out to be a »girl band« but they were one of the first German new wave bands whose members were all female.

Carambolage were one of the first German new-wave bands to sit together exclusively from women. The establishment of a so-called "women's band" was never intended. Rather, the punk alliance around Britta Neander, Elfie-Esther Steitz and Angie Olbrich grew up organically from the environment of the sound of Steine Scherben, and it was the common interest in the musical experiment among friends that they had with each other bound.

For the Fripp fans
Strangely listenable mix of industrial, rap, drum and base. Might well appeal to NIN fans and you children of the 80s.
Check out track nr2 - Bootleg Blood.
In case anybody cares, the latest Caravan album is on Bandcamp

I am pretty sure that I won't be rushing out to buy this one but it is getting to be that time of year 😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱

Paul Weller's new one, out on 14th May....sounding really good.
I know that there is a BossK fan lurking out there in the shadows. You probably know about this already but just in case
Shoreline Amphitheatre show on August 8, 1991*.
A very famous bootleg...
I missed that tour as I had just moved to Europe. Based on the bootleg, it seems like it was a great show.
However, 30cds? 250 euros? You gotta be a pretty die-hard fan to buy that release. If I am going to piss money away, then I would rather spend it on a nice single malt 😁
2021 marks the 30th anniversary of Yes’ Union tour, featuring eight members of the legendary band.

For the Clutch fans
https://www.facebook.com/Clutchband/
After many delays due to the ongoing pandemic "The Obelisk" is finally scheduled to hit participating Record Store Day stores on Saturday, Oct. 24th for the third drop of Record Store Day. The box set is comprised of all of Clutch’s Weathermaker Music vinyl releases. There are six double LP's, three 12" LPs, and three 12" picture discs all together in a beautifully designed box set. In addition, the box contains a turntable mat and a square, artist signed lithograph. The rigid box has a magnetic closure and the silver foil is stamped on black Sierra cloth. This is a unique collector's item.
Says Neil Fallon: “In 2008 Clutch launched Weathermaker Music. Starting our own record label has proven to be one of the better decisions we made and “The Obelisk” box set is evidence. “The Obelisk” is comprised of all the Clutch vinyl LPs released on Weathermaker Music. It has been a long time coming, but we think it has been worth the wait.” The individual 12” vinyl releases are Full Fathom Five (2xLP), Live at The Googolplex (Picture Disc), Jam Room (Picture Disc). Pitchfork & Lost Needles (Picture Disc), La Curandera, Strange Cousins From The West (2xLP),Blast Tyrant (2xLP), Robot Hive/Exodus (2xLP), From Beale Street To Oblivion (2xLP) Earth Rocker, Psychic Warfare, and Book Of bad Decisions (2xLP). Record Store Day is always a unique celebration of one of a kind physical releases and your local record store. Find participating stores at #RSD20 www.recordstoreday.com

The last track is a faux post-gig band argument which is both hilarious and expletive-ridden.

Some other friends of mine have just released their first full length album. This switches between quite angular prog rock to melodic alt pop:
https://ham-legion.bandcamp.com/album/paradise-park
Don't be put off by the harshness of track one - two and three are more accessible.
Some friends of mine have just released an album. If you like alt/indie pop with a combination of lilting vocal melodies and bursts of rocking guitar, you may find this pleasing:

Everyone here should have this.
😎🙏🏼 great cover 👍
Barry Andrews has just released his third solo album.
As per Barry:
All new material – very songy, hooky and, obviously, slightly lurid.
Also – heads up – we have a gig confirmed in Lewes, West Sussex for October 4th at All Saints. Get it in your diary.
