ENEMY TERRITORY is the first film bold enough to ask: what if the guy who sang the GHOSTBUSTERS theme was in ASSAULT ON PRECINCT 13? Turns out the answer is a pretty rad underground action flick. Returning guest Eric Walkuski joins us as we talk about this wild piece of late-80s urban paranoia, as a milquetoast insurance salesman and a cable repairman try to survive a night in a tenement building against a bloodthirsty gang.  Hosted by Jarrod Hornbeck and Steve Guntli  Theme song by Kyle Hornbeck  Logo by Doug McCambridge  Email: puppetmasterscastlefreaks@gmail.com Instagram/Threads: @puppetmasters_castlefreaks  YouTube: @PuppetMastersCastleFreaks  Next week's episode: The Baby Oopsie trilogy

The spring showers have begun their annual process of bringing May flowers, and thus we bid goodbye to Carp-winter on this final episode in the series. We're going back to the very beginning with what Carpenter refers to as his first "real" movie, the germ from which his career grew: it's 1976's ASSAULT ON PRECINCT 13!We're discussing Carpenter's humble-yet-cynical beginnings, his love of sieges, and his inspirations to create this movie before we dive into the ASSAULT's path from period western to modern day, how this movie took a village to make, and just how much of it is lovingly lifted from other sources. (Featuring one of Erin's sickest remixes to date.) We go deep on the operations of the multicultural gang Street Thunder, the notorious ice cream scene, and our love for Napoleon Wilson.And finally, as we wrap up Carp-winter we're taking the opportunity to show how ASSAULT paved the path to Carpenter's future career, and talk about our John Carpenter favourites.Next time, we leave Carpenter behind for some other genre fare as we revisit the 1993 wrong man classic, THE FUGITIVE.

Pour cette nouvelle émission sur Radio Canut, nous recevrons Ludovic Villard dont le tout nouveau livre Bandes originales et cinéma de genre vient de sortir aux éditions Le Mot et Le Reste. Nous parlerons de son parcours, et bien entendu de son travail sur ce copieux ouvrage consacré à la musique de nos genres préférés. A propos du livre :Entre 1960 et 1982, le cinéma dit « de genre » vit un âge de prospérité et de liberté au cours duquel la musique va acquérir un rôle essentiel. Pendant deux décennies, réalisateurs et compositeurs vont travailler de concert à des œuvres sans concessions, dont les partitions souligneront le caractère inventif et bien souvent contestataire, parfois avec les moyens du bord, parfois aussi avec des budgets démesurés, mais toujours dans le but d'offrir une expérience forte et singulière. Dans cet ouvrage, Ludovic Villard explore ainsi 100 bandes originales parmi lesquelles celles composées par Ennio Morricone pour Le Bon, la brute et le truand (Sergio Leone, 1966) ou La Rançon de la peur (Umberto Lenzi, 1974), par Isaac Hayes pour Shaft (Goldon Parks,1971) ou encore par John Carpenter pour Assault On Precinct 13 (John Carpenter, 1978). BANDES ORIGINALES & CINÉMA DE GENREDE PSYCHOSE À BLADE RUNNER Editions Le mot et le reste – août 2023Collection Musiques | 312 pagesISBN : 978-2-38431-254-2 A propos de Ludovic Villard :Né à Villeurbanne en 1983, Ludovic Villard compose des poèmes et des textes de rap dès l'adolescence. Il enregistre une soixantaine de projets musicaux entre 2007 et 2023 sous le nom de Lucio Bukowski, puis publie deux premiers recueils poétiques en 2017 (Je demeure paisible en travers de leurs gorges) et 2019 (La Lune boit tout ce qu'elle peut mais laisse de généreux pourboires). En 2020 il publie un essai sur Louis Calaferte, Il est cinq heures dans un monde libre et civilisé (les éditions du Feu Sacré) puis un troisième recueil augmenté d'une anthologie en 2022 : Il faut toujours se préparer à perdre (Castor Astral).

BIOGRAFIAFecha de nacimiento: 16 de enero de 1948 (72 años).Lugar de nacimiento: Carthage N.Y.Director, productor y guionista, de cine estadounidense y ademas es compositor y músico.Ha trabajado en varios géneros de cine, pero se le asocia mas con el horror, acción y ciencia ficción donde el punto mas alto de su carrera fueron los años 70's y 80's.Entre sus películas mas reconocidas tenemos: Halloween, The Thing, Escape From N.Y., Big Trouble In Little China.Es considerado uno de los mas reconocidos directores del genero de horror, ya que sus peliculas se han convertido en éxitos con el paso de los años y estableciéndose como de culto y un referente en la historia del cine de horror.INICIOSSus padres se mudan a Kentuky, y el se sentía fuera de lugar con las creencias y forma de vida de la sociedad del estado.Este hecho el lo considera como la mayor influencia para dedicarse al cine, ya que se refugiaba en la música y cine por la vida que llevaba en Kentuky.Cuando vio en el cine la película It Came From Outer Space, se asusto mucho pero a la vez le encanto demasiado.Con esta película inicio su fascinación por el cine de horror.También leía comics como Weird science o Tales from the Crypt.Su padre le regalo una cámara de video de 8MM, y con esto aprendió lo básico de las tenias de filmación y quería dedicarse al cine y ser director;  pero su padre le decía que tenia que se dedicara a otra cosa.Estudios1968 toma una decision y se va a la Universidad de California de Sur, ahi aprendió todo sobre la realización del cine.Camara, Iluminacion, Actuación etc.Junto a un compañero de universidad, crearon una banda de rock, y también componían la música de sus pequeñas peliculas de aquel entonces.Una de ellas fue The Ressurrection of Bronco Billy la cual gano un premio Oscar a la mejor película corta.CARRERA EN EL CINEDark Star (1974)Fue su primer cinta, de Ciencia Ficción, pero inicio como una película de estudiantes, pero termino siendo una película comercial.En esta cinta, participo Dan O'Bannon, como actor, co-escritor y efectos especiales.Para Carpenter, esta cinta supuso un gran éxito ya que hacer una película de ciencia ficción que tiene lugar en el espacio era algo inaudito en la escuela de cine, sumándole que era muy joven y con poca experiencia.Assault On Precinct 13 (1976) Es una película de acción, no fue gran cosa, ni obtuvo grandes criticas, pero en los festivales de Europa tuvo buena recepción y supuso el lanzamiento de la carrera de Carpenter.En esta película, es donde conoce y trabaja por primera vez con Debra Hill, como supervisora del guion y con quien seguiría trabajando mas adelante y seria parte esencial para el éxito de las peliculas de Carpenter.Halloween (1978)Rodada con un presupuesto limitado, se convertiría en cierto tiempo el film de terror independiente de mayor éxito de la historia. Y consigue que el genero slasher se integre de lleno en el cine Estadounidense.En propias palabras de George Romero cuando vio Halloween: “Es la película de horror perfecta”. Por lo que transmita, un psicopatía que ira por ti.The Fog (1980)Fantasmas de marineros regresan de la muerte para vengarse de los habitantes de un pequeño pueblo pesquero.Vuelve a participar Jamie Lee Curtis.Escape From N.Y. (1981)Influencia Western, donde el personaje de Snake es este badass del cine, tanto que influencio a Hideo Kojima para su juego Metal Gear.Lee Van CleefThe Thing (1982)Primera cinta de su trilogía y hasta aquí es donde Carpenter había estado conforme con trabajar con un presupuesto bajo.Y aqui es donde Carpenter cambio un poco su idea para apoyarse mas en los efectos especiales y el gore que estaba de moda.Pero recibieron muchas criticas, por la violencia gráfica, lo llamaron el “pornografo de la violencia”Christine (1983)Starman (1984)Derivado de las ciriticas negativa de The Thing la carrera John Carpenter se mueve en diferentes direcciones, es por eso que realizo Starman.Donde quiso demostrar que no solo podia hacer películas de horror, sino una bonita película de ciencia ficción y romance, donde nadie muriera.Otras películas de John Carpenter:Big Trouble In Little China (1986)Prince Of Darkness (1987)Teología, Religión y CienciaThey Live (1988)Memoirs Of An Invisible ManIn The Mouth Of Madness (1994)Village Of The Damned (1995)Escape From LA (1996)Vampires (1998)Ghost Of Mars (2001)The Ward (2010)Actualmente John Carpenter continua en su linea independiente y es un director con una enorme carrera exitosa sin renunciar a sus ideas.INTRODUCCION AL CINE DE HORRORInfluenciaCuando pensó en Michael Myers, Carpenter tenía muy claro que los monstruos eran más efectivos cuando la audiencia tenía menos información sobre ellos. Así que creó a un monstruo el cuál no tenía ninguna característica, una página en blanco. Lo único que lo definía era la maldad. Logró este efecto al tener la máscara sin color y los ojos completamente negros. Al tener su rostro completamente oculto, solo podría tener información sobre su personalidad según sus movimientos, los cuales, prácticamente no existen.. vemos como camina lentamente, no reacciona ante nada. Lo define Carpenter como el viento "está ahí afuera y te va a atrapar".En su película "They Live", a pesar de tener una trama simple hace una crítica social bastante interesante. hacia el consumismo y cómo la gente es influenciada a través de mensajes subliminares. Hay aliens que utilizan estos mensajes para controlarnos. Aquí la audiencia se tiene que cuestionar sobre el horror de vivir en un mundo capitalista y si realmente existe el libre albedrío... o simplemente somos manipulados por otros... otros de este mundo que no son aliens.The Thing utilizó la idea de la Body Culture de la época para convertirla en un arma de horror. Transgredir el cuerpo humano de la forma en que lo hizo y el uso del terror psicológico fue una combinación que en su momento, derribó la película, pero el tiempo la puso en un pedestal. Ahora, este fue un remake. En ese tiempo, los remakes solían ser más fieles a la versión original. El rompió el esquema trayendo una película que en lugar de hablarle a las audiencias del 51, se enfocó en lo que era relevante en los 80s.Además, crea su propia música con sintetizador esde los 70s, comenzando con el corto película Dark Star. Este tipo de música con synth puede verse más recientemente como una influencia en Stranger Things, por ejemplo.La película It Follows, claramente tiene los tintes de Halloween.Otros directores que empezaron en la misma época que él como Martin Scorsese, Spielberg, Lucas, Ford Coppola. A pesar de la gran influencia que Carpenter tuvo en el cine nunca fue fan de la escena de los óscares como éstos otros.Su interés por traer nuevas perspectivas al cine puede verse en las decisiones que toma... por ejemplo, una película Slasher vista desde el punto de vista del asesino.En sus películas, deliberadamente quiere que la audiencia conozca bien la geografía para poner el ambiente en la escena. Para ellos, hace tomas largas y a distancia para que se pueda percibir lo cerca o lejos" de las cosas. Por ejemplo, en The Thing, cierta stomas puedes ver todos los corredores y cómo se conectan, cuántos caben y demás.Otro elemento es el uso de la sangre. En sus películas, trata de limitarlo y extender su aparición para crear una tensión para agregar suspenso. No se trata de cuántos mata, sino la idea de que el asesino puede estar en cualquier lugar, en cualquier momento. Halloween, te mantiene en ese suspenso, en The Thing igual con la paranoia, - includo Tarantino dijo que trató de emular este efecto en Hateful 8- en They Live viendo los anuncios por todos lados... Hasta cierto punto, podrías decir que no te deja respirar como audiencia, no hay lugar seguro.The Purge es una película que su director James De Monaco mismo ha dicho que el sentido de paranoia en The Thing lo inspiró en su película - el guionista escribió el guión mientras escuchaba una y otra vez el soundtrack de la película. Para la secuela, Anarquía, se inspiró en Escape de Nuea York.Los héroes en sus películas se encuenrtan en un estado perpetuo de ansiedad, miedo, e incertidumbre.Otra característica del cine de Carpenter es que debe de colocar algo de humor para liberar la válvula de tod ala tensión que crea. Esto lo hace con humor, en The Thing por ejemplo los comentarios qu etienen entre ellos ayudan.También es común que sus películas son contadas desde la perspectiva de una persona común y corriente, la clase trabajadora. Son quienes ven la realidad tal cual y por eso generan esos momentos chuscos. Traen la naturalidad del ser a la pantalla, son personas en los que podemos reflejarnos.Créditos:Radio Horror es producido por Caro Arriaga y Rael Aguilar.Edición por Matías Beltrando desde Destek Soporte.Música Closing Theme Hounds of Love por Dan Luscombe (Intro)Insiders por Joe Crotty (Intro)Patchwork por Patchworker f.k.a.

Over the years, when I see political unrest and public disruption of what is perceived as a broken system, I inevitably wonder what director John Carpenter might be thinking about the state of affairs.  Aside from being legendary as perhaps the founding father of the slasher genre for his creation of the Halloween franchise and the ubiquitous horror icon Michael Myers, not to mention the cosmic horrors of The Thing, he also wrote and produced films with an unmistakable focus on class and justice.  We first see this in his early film Assault On Precinct 13, but it really blooms into a considerably more ambitious world with Escape From New York.  Additionally, while by 2020 standards characters of color in his films can be scoffed at as being relegated to "token" rolls and side characters, I think it's important to acknowledge that in a time when Hollywood was largely at BEST shoehorning actors of color into tiny rolls, John Carpenter appeared to be giving thought to this dynamic, and writing characters intended to at least give the actors filling those minor rolls reason to be in the film.  Their very presence spoke to the inequities in the system in a meaningful way.  It wasn't much, perhaps, but it was something, and I think it was something he gave real thought and emotion to. Indeed, by 1988 when Escape From New York was set, Ronald Reagan's America hadn't reached the level of authoritarian desperation portrayed in the film, yet seeing the protests in the streets in the year 2020 suggests to me that John Carpenter was on to something with his vision of an America headed towards a more profound feeling of separation between "polite society" and those who were deemed unfit to be a part of that society.  Manhattan is currently trying to recover from being the literal epicenter of a global pandemic, and people do feel they're being targeted in the streets by an overbearing and too often lethal police force who appear intent on making it clear that they do have a sense of who does and doesn't belong.  The idea was shocking and disturbing in 1981, and for many of us, it's no less bewildering and horrific today.  The island hasn't become a penal colony, but it's clear to many of us that the fear and bewilderment of the police and prison systems as they do exist are such a dark specter in the lives of people who come into or even near contact with it carry an indelible anxiety with them in their daily lives, and I believe John Carpenter was tapping into that fear with his films.   Maybe I'm reading too much into things, and if that's the case I apologize.  But maybe, just maybe, it's time to dig deep and make the difficult decision that we can do better.  For a lot of us, dystopia is a phantom to be feared for it's looming presence on the horizon, but for many it's a considerable reality in their day to day affairs.  That's not only problematic, it's a moral injustice that needs to be addressed by all of us.     Love and Respect,   Shonny Constant 6.10.2020     If you've read all this and you're on Facebook, PLEASE join us at our Group to discuss the movie and share your horror love.  We REALLY want to hear from you.  We REALLY REALLY do!     Talk Horror To Me Facebook Group       And here's a bunch of other links!    Instagram @TalkHorrorShow @Shonny.Constant   Twitter @ChzuckBean   Old Man Plays Old Games on Twitch @Chzuck     Cover art for this episode by Crystal Mielcarek!  Find more of her work on Facebook, Instagram, or Smushbox.net.

Composer, producer, writer and director John Carpenter is regarded as one of the most influential auteur filmmakers in all of cinema. He has been behind some of the most iconic films in the horror and sci-fi genre such as Assault On Precinct 13, Halloween, Christine, The Fog, Escape From New York, The Thing, Big Trouble in Little China and many more. What sets John apart from most other writers and directors is that he is also the composer on his films. His music has become as iconic as the images he has brought to life onscreen. John makes his long-awaited return to the Halloween franchise that he gave birth to in 1978 by coming onboard to score and executive produce David Gordon Green's Halloween sequel. Green's film is ignoring all the sequels and picking the story up 40 years after the events of the original film. We had a small window to chat with John about his career in the industry, dating back to what made him fall in love with cinema in the first place. We touch on several subjects such as coming up with a story and what makes a great horror film. Hear stories such as what inspired the Michael Myers character, the true story of how John worked with Ennio Morricone on the The Thing, working with Alan Howarth, the difficulties of production across his films, when he starts the composing process on his films, and how he collaborated with Cody Carpenter and Daniel Davies to co-score the newest chapter in the Halloween franchise. It was such an honor to have this brief and engaging chat with one of the greatest storytellers of cinema.

Thanks Goffy, the extra effort is appreciated. Moid and Goffy stick to the format and deliver a review of a film while Chris flexes his independent muscle and subjects us all to a twenty minute synopsis in what feels like a real time retelling of the first act of the film.   BEEN FLICKED 6:05 THE STRAIGHT STORY (1999) Moid reviews David Lynch's unusually normal movie, The Straight Story. As a big fan of the director's work, Moid was really looking forward to getting one step closer to being a Lynch completist. 20:09 WHAT HAPPENED TO MONDAY (2017) Netflix original movies get a rough ride on this show, we fully admit that this is unfair and want to review films on their own merit. Chris was somehow seduced into watching and reviewing this dystopian Orphan Black rip off. 43:35 TRAIN TO BUSAN (2016) Goffy proudly proclaims this to be the only Korean, Zombie movie that his wife can stomach. Then again, would you trust the opinion of a man who describes the Korean peninsular as a scrotum? 59:15 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Goffy has been playing around on Twitter this week and shares a discussion about great director streaks.

Whether it is for vengeance or to cover up illegal activities, it is going to be a long night for the closing Precinct 13 that none may survive. Before Halloween, before the Fog, before Escape from New York, before The Thing, John Carpenter made the low budget, action, thriller Assault On Precinct 13 (1976). A simple idea that was inspired by Romero's Night of the Living Dead as a faceless gang lays siege to a closing precinct. In 2005 based on a screenplay by James (The Purge) DeMonaco, Jean-Francois Richet would remake Carpenter's classic with an all-star cast including Ethan Hawke, Laurence Fishburne, Gabriel Byrne, Maria Bello, Drea de Matteo, John Leguizamo, Brian Dennehy, and rapper Ja Rule. This week Invasion of the Remake gets inside Precinct 13 to compare, contrast, and ultimately see which film will survive the Assualt on Precinct 13.   Support independent podcasts like ours by telling your friends and family how to find us at places like iTunes, Google Play Music, Stitcher, PlayerFM, Tune In Radio, Audioboom, BluBrry, Libsyn, YouTube and all the best podcast providers.

Butcher Boy's "React Or Die" Track By Track

God Is InThe TV Zine

Glaswegian act Butcher Boy came to our attention in 2007, with the release of their first album "Profit in Your Poetry".It was a real treat, a excellently realised indie folk pop album, full of literate, heartfelt lyrics about wistful memories: it’s tender, organically produced sound drew favourable comparisons in my own mind: "Think early Belle and Sebastian haunted by a real past, the precise poetic pop of the Smiths tinged with a heavy Glaswegian sensibility. Think the tunes of Lloyd Cole and the Commotions matched to the intimacy of Arab Strap, most of all think wonderfully dark pop music, for nights out or those long dark midnights spent alone by your turntable, reading the inlay, and submersing yourself in the sound."They followed this up with the single "18th Emergency" later that year, a stately ballad it was like being allowed to read someone's secret diary entry, each line consumed with poetic heart tugging imagery that conjures up moments in time, lovers lost and real kitchen sink drama.Their new album "React or Die" is preceded by a single "Carve a Pattern" which you can download here(from the folks at Stereogum):Butcher Boy- Carve A PatternIt reflects a progression a more buffed up, musically expressive sound that still bares the emotional brevity, and bittersweet vocals at the heart of Butcher Boy. We caught up with their lead singer/lyricist John Blain Hunt (who is also the famed DJ behind the National Pop League nights) for an exclusive insight into each of the tracks that make up their second work "React Or Die."Butcher Boy's "React Or Die" Track By TrackWHEN I'M ASLEEPI wrote the main melody one Sunday night after watching The Dream Life of Angels on BBC2. Rue des Cascades by Yann Tiersen is over the closing credits, and the film has an incredibly savage and sad ending. I could barely speak the day after watching it. The final frame is still and calmbut it is heaving with regret. It's like a sob caught in your chest, grief.Originally, the song was a duet with a completely different vocal melody but when Maya joined the band I went back to it and worked on a stronger cello line, something to suit Maya's style of playing which is very confident and strident. The rest of the song fell into place around the cello. I watchedThe Dream Life of Angels again and I re-wrote the lyrics to read like a nursery rhyme.Basil plays ten mandolin tracks on three mandolins at the end. Brian, the engineer, said that the last "I never feel..." was a Leo Sayer moment, which I'm quite proud of.I love playing this live - it breathes and it feels very powerful.CARVE A PATTERNI bought a rattly old piano in 2003 and I came up with the melody for "Carve A Pattern" the day I got it - I don't think I ever wrote anything else on that piano. Butcher Boy aren't really a band for jamming but we used to rehearse this song a lot, just because it was such good fun to play. I'vegot a ten-minute long recording of us playing it in my old front room and by the end of the song we were hamming it up so much it's like the finale of a Broadway musical.This was always going to be the most pop song on the record - I wanted it to be really sharp and snappy. The last chord originally rang out for twenty seconds, like A Day In The Life, and there are lots of little nods to different songs I love in it. Brian said that the backing vocals in the chorus are like Satellite Of Love but I think they're more like Mr Sandmanby the Chordettes. They're both odd and unsettling songs though; either one is good enough for me.YOU'RE ONLY CRYING FOR YOURSELFI distinctly remember humming the melody for this one afternoon while we were recording our first record. There seemed to a big leap between the verse and the chorus melodies and I originally thought it could be a calland response song.This song was pieced together in the studio much more than the others. We ended up trying to lighten it a lot, as it had ended up sounding very ominous and serious. We swapped from upright piano to Rhodes and chopped out a lot of the strings.I used to see a man busking on saxophone around Glasgow a lot and, for a while, I harboured a fantasy I would ask him in to play some chops and then open up with a solo at the end. We never did it, but I maintain it would've worked! We had a whistle signalling the end section too, which was meant tobe a little nod to Felicity but we decided to cut it.We used Brian's Moog for the end section - the overall feel of the song was meant to be like Del Shannon's Runaway and we were trying to get close to that high organ sound.ANYTHING OTHER THAN KINDThis was, mostly, a really old song I wrote at the end of 1998 called Sugar Shock, but we changed a lot of the arrangement and the vocal melody and lyrics are different.I wrote it when I was living in Sheffield. I had the attic room and you could see for thirty miles out of the window - it was really magical. I used to write songs on an old keyboard called an ARP Quartet - it was very limited and unreliable but had a really beautiful, gentle piano tone. Everything came out sounding like it was recorded in the woods.I wrote the words to this sitting in Queens Park. The music is very gentle and so I wanted to unsteady it a little. I'm happy that it can read as a piece of prose - it sits beside "There Is No-One Who Can Tell You Where You've Been" from our first record.Alison plays piano strings on this, and Alison, Basil and I wrote the oboe part together one Sunday morning... the song really needed an oboe! It sounds like woodcuts to me, and ink, and a very heavy sky.THIS KISS WILL MARRY USWe were going to call the album this - it's like an unwritten Burns poem.This is another old song - I recorded a version of it at Ca Va in 2001 along with I Know Who You Could Be (which was on Profit In Your Poetry) and two songs we¹ve not released yet called Juicy Fruit and Mouchette. Again, the ARP was a key part in writing it - originally, the little piano riffrepeated over and over again. I recorded the first demo on Halloween 2001 and I've got lovely memories of that.We recorded the sea sounds at Irvine beach on New Year's Day, 2008 - we got about 15 minutes worth, inciting the seagulls with a goat's cheese tart. I also wanted to get the sounds of sails slapping against masts but, strangely, all the boats were out of the harbour that day.The introduction to This Kiss Will Marry Us was originally another old song- one I'd forgotten about and found going through cassettes when I was moving house. I used to catalogue the songs I wrote but this one had no title or date - I think it was from the same times as When I'm Asleep though, when I was trying to write sea shanties on melodica.Alison plays the piano strings again, and the Rhodes too... I wanted it have the feeling of uneasiness you get from the gentler songs on the Assault On Precinct 13 soundtrack, which are warm and incredibly cold and detached at the same time. That's how the song feels to me - being aware of the structure and purpose of emotion but not knowing how it works at all.A BETTER GHOSTMusically this was, by far, the easiest song to write for the record - the whole song fell into place in about five minutes. I was watching the 2007 Scottish Cup Final in the house with my pal Iain at the time, and we'd got sandwiches and coffee and cake from a place called Espresso, which is one ofmy favourite places to eat. I was probably feeling pretty happy and satisfied.The lyric to this one is my favourite on the record - I wanted to use the phrase "a better ghost" for ages but couldn't exactly work out what it would mean. It came eventually though... I remember reading that birds can flockand fly in formation because they have magnets in their bones. I don't know if that's true or not but I liked the idea.We made a video for this song with our pals Keith and Allison. There is a real feeling of tenderness between them in the video which I really love. The song tries to be tender, but stoic too.CLOCKWORKI can barely play piano and Alison and I more or less got here by trial and error and me humming everything. There is a chord change in the instrumental section that's consciously All Of My Heart by ABC and the general feel I was hoping for was Vince Guaraldi.This is definitely the most complicated song for us to play! Findlay is an incredible drummer - we're constantly in awe of how quickly he can pick things up, interpret them, and then make them entirely his own. We ended up with a samba current all the way through this, blocks, congas... I was playing a guitar rhythm I'd cribbed off the Miracles and Basil is playing this really beautiful, bluesy little riff... It's on our agenda now to learn how to actually play it together.The cornet players from Kings Park Brass Band play on the second half of this song - when we'd completed the instrumental I couldn't quite believe we'd come up with it all.WHY I LIKE BABIESThis is another old song - I wrote it in the summer of 2000. It's changed a little musically since then, but oddly for me the lyrics are pretty much intact. I like the line "I watch with tired eyes as you seduce yourself" -that's the mood for the song.As a band we were actually playing this before much of the material for our first record was finished, but we struggled to get it to hang together properly. We tweaked the drums though - it's got a little stutter and roll from The Train From Kansas City by the Shangri Las in there now - and it suddenly worked.Originally, the song started with guitar and vocals but we worked on a different introduction... We wanted it to sound like the Carpenters. Basil's guitar makes it more Candy Says... and we managed to get some use out of the studio Mellotron in the middle eight.We gave the clock we used at the end of this song to Ulla, who did all the artwork for the record.SUNDAY BELLSI wrote this, as Sparks, in about 1999 in a batch of about six songs in two weeks. Originally it was a real rant - I couldn't get the words out fast enough. We started working on it again when we were on tour in October 2007 and actually got round to sound checking it a few times.I rewrote the words last summer. I always found the sound of Sunday Bells quite ominous - they remind me of being little and having the quilt pulled up to my eyes.Basil's guitar reminds me of Don't Fear The Reaper; the Hammond reminds me of I Will Die With My Head In Flames; Findlay's drumming is as precise as disco and we put in a deliberate little nod to Blue Monday going into thelast verse.REACT OR DIEAgain, this song was written and pretty much ready before "Profit In Your Poetry" but I wanted to save it for a second album.The song started out as a poem I'd written about a Diane Arbus photograph. It was of a couple of married kids in Washington Park Square in New York...They were babies, but furious and utterly defiant to the camera. The poem was more about how I imagined that type of person.I wrote it when I was on holiday in Philadelphia in 2005. I had a rare moment on that holiday - it was Halloween and I was walking. It was warm, I was just off the campus at Penn University. It was about 4pm and the sun had started to drop and suddenly the angle of the light and the shadows on the building opposite was perfect. It was so beautiful and still and it literally felt I had spent my whole life waiting for that moment. And it felt like the end of something... it's not explicitly connected, but because I was working on this song at the time, this song reminds me of that moment. It's apt that it's the last song on the record.When the brass band come in it's meant to sound like the lights of miners' hard hats appearing over the hill. Alison arranged that little piece and it brings a lump to my throat.I really enjoy songs that are less than two minutes long.React Or Die is out in the UK on the 6th of April 09 viasmashing indie/club imprint How Does It Feel To Be Loved? The album comes with a 16 page booklet and liner notes by John Blain Hunt. Here's a tracklist:"A Better Ghost" will be the second single, out 23/03/09.Orginally published here:http://www.godisinthetvzine.co.uk/content/content_detail.php?id=3149&type=FeaturesAll content syndicated from http://wwwg.odisinthetvzine.co.uk
