Have you heard "Mars"? And don't reply "no, I've heard Bounty."

No, I did not receive such a letter, said in broken language: today the server is "for street girls at 20¤." Said in standard language: the server is with prostitutes. Said in contest language: try again, you will be more fortunate.

Since you are a novice, I pointed out the old things; if it had been a long-time attendee, I would have simply written "Again?" Here we could only talk about Dune Buggies and Coyote Duster, or Muscle Cars in general.

Josi_, if I were serious, do you think I would quote the movie where Michael J. Fox is a werewolf who wins the student basketball championship? If I were serious, I would quote "The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou," a film that made me sleep soundly, but it's certainly quite chic.

Last news, last in chronological order but not last in importance, on November 11th the Mammuts will be performing at Bloom in Mezzago (with a demonic stall where the famous hand-printed copies of Lucifer Songs will be on sale), with Moonchild dressed in leather on the cube screaming "satan give me love, lucifer make me happy."

If you go to stonerrock.com, you can already download "Mars," the single from the new Mammut, at 56kbps. The vinyl will be pressed in a thousand collectible copies, with the cd+dvd also limited to a thousand copies; the UFOs claim they are "hand-printed and numbered." Lucifer Songs is the title, and Mars is truly a nasty one, the nastiest in Mammut's discography so far (because we still need to hear this L-Songs). The Mammut will also be present at Roadburn in Heindoven this year, including Malleus, and just to make it even better, The Heads will be there at R.Burn too.

Dear Sfascia, if you are looking for insights from me, you will indeed find them in my previous reviews. This is the third review I've done of the aforementioned Fu-Manchu and at least the 20th of Stonerrock. In my past reviews, you will find discussions that include comments on every album, song, and product from this merry band. By myself, I would neither have the desire nor the time to summarize pages and pages of discussions that took place between me, dear Rocky Erickson, the various Psychopompe, dear Open Mind, dear Moonchild, dear Humax4, dear Jhon Cipollona, and all the other users who enjoy listening to hard non-psychedelic stonerrock. If you are perhaps worried that what I wrote two years ago no longer reflects my thoughts, I assure you that this is not the case; what I thought about the Manchu two years ago is exactly what I think today. I am not saying this to annoy you, but simply because, if you truly seek insights, I believe that the opinions of ten people about a band (myself included) are better than just my own opinion, which I repeat, I have expressed so many times about the Manchu that I am now nauseated by it. If you wish, you can also consult the review of the "Nebula" album "To The Center," a band formed by the usual guitarist of Fu-Manchu during the time of this great album called Daredevil, namely Edoardo Vetro. Your input in the old discussions would be appreciated; perhaps we could continue the previous talks, and it would be much more useful than starting new ones on the same subject.

It was Lukin who spilled everything to the D.E.A. Cornered at the Modena-Nonantola interchange in an obvious state of intoxication, after being beaten with caps and pinched by the agents, following an exhausting search of his vehicle and various threats of windshield wiper confiscation and mirror puncturing, Lukin gave in, claiming that the two joints he had in his pocket were bought from (according to the statement) "the one from Eyehategod, the one who sings sludge, those dopes.". Because even Lukin is jealous of Eyehategod, because they do it better than him, the sludge. And we will never forgive him for that, Lukin, and we drown him in the granary.

Motorhead are a more powerful and bulldozer-like reinterpretation of Hard Rock from bands like the Stooges, MC5, Ac/Dc, and even Blue Cheer. As for punk, given the production and the presence of tracks like (I quote you) the melodic and driving "Sweet Revenge" (complete with a bluesy rhythm) and "Stone Dead Forever" (with a tail of incandescent guitar eruptions), for me it has nothing to do with punk. Plus, Motorhead existed before punk (formed in 1975), and Lemmy was a roadie for Hendrix (no joke), and he was a member of both Sam Gopal and the early Hawkwind (not just any joke). I think you could argue that bands like Zeke or other Hardcore groups have taken a lot from Motorhead, but saying that Motorhead takes from punk is a different matter.

Bought while exploring the various performances of Cobham, really very very cool.
