In this digital release, this legendary collective presents 4 soundtracks of 4 different performances held in Torino and around that city, their hometown, in the years 2005 and 2006.The last track is instead an unreleased track recorded in a studio.
I have already written about them when I posted their masterpiece album released in 1989 "Suidicio Modo D`Uso".
For who missed that post CCC CNC NCN is a radical collective from the anarchic/antagonist underground scene, combining old-school industrial sound with conceptual records and live shows about unpopular topics, such as suicide as an extreme choice of freedom, mass control, and oppression.
An FB page about them and their recent activities is here, on this page you can read also few reviews about those performances.Unfortunately, this page is in Italian language, only. Enjoy it. ~f*a^r~a)w^a~y( click me
"Tromatism was a French punk band formed by Loran (formerly a member of Bérurier Noir and also Ze6). The band was famous for their live theatrical performances and on-stage visual arts. While using some esoteric musical elements like drum machines, violins and flutes combined with anarcho punk influence, the band sounded hardcore and its lyrics had an emphasis on politics,specific issues like veganism, ecology, vivisection, anti-violence, colonialism and, homosexuality. They played in squats and defended such a way of life and existence by participating in open resistance against eviction and government intrusion.The group was active between 1993 to 1998,specific going on numerous tours and releasing two EPs (titled "K7 live" in 1993 and "Je ne veux plus avoir mal", roughly translated to "I don't want to suffer any longer" in 1994) and one full length LP in 2000 (titled "Une saison en enfer", roughly translated to "A season in hell). Apparently, the LP is still readily obtainable in Bourges, France (We doubt this! -jon active) where the singer is said to still reside and is actively involved in the punk scene.
Tromatism split in 1999 but individual members of the group are still active in the French punk, music and art community as phenomenal musicians, performers ,and respected political punks."(Info from Active distribution web site)
This is one of the best French band that I ever saw live, their performances were just stunning and powerful leaving the audience in an haze of astonishment and joy.Tribal electro punk with many messages,I am including here some videos as I think you should really watch their live actions.A wikipedia page in French is here.This lp is a great release too.
This is the very
first experimental theatre-performance by this band,It was an idea
already performed by the ghost collective E.A.,I
posted the very first document of this performance:Carne
di FangAzione by Estro Assente.
Brandelli D`Odio extended this basic idea to a full long piece of 30 minutes,6
"actors" experimenting live punk music mixing it with
video installations,spitfire
half-nude bodies,original papier mache` masks,dark
ambient,mud,slides,painting and engagement of the audience into the
show.
I left the original
music of the videos and I made a very little editing of those recordings trying to retain the pure vibes of those shows.
Those videos were
recorded at the live show in Pishina Okkupata of Foggia in November
1993,the social Squatted center Labirinto in Benevento in January
1994 and the social squatted center in Avellino in February 1994+
pieces of the show at the 10 days anarchist meeting in Montemarenzo in
August 1994.
A very big thanx to
all the people whom filmed those shows and passed us those video
recordings.
Although recorded in the beginning of the 90s those videos are completely unreleased and never been edited before, the quality is pretty good if you think about the basic settings of dark lights used during those performances and the video-cameras of that time.
Ispirational thriving force-points are fantasy,rebellion and repression.
I added more info in the video and it has english subtitles.
A very big thanx to Full Slap ,a band of friends who gave us full support while touring together sharing instruments,stages,basic needs and lots of fun,more thanx must be added to all the squatters in Foggia and in the places that we visited,too many to write down here. A double cd with almost all the discography of this band is still available on radiomolotov blog here the link. Terra Umana helped me in the final editing. Enjoy it. ~f~a~r~a~w~a~y~
