Esta semana, dedicamos una nueva sesión de Rebelión Sónica, a la inclasificable banda estadounidense Cheer-Accident, en especial con material del nuevo álbum “Vacate”, pero también con música de “Putting Off Death” de 2017. Inspirado por la música “easy listening”, “Vacate” fue lanzado por el sello Cuneiform Records el 23 de febrero pasado y fue registrado por el reconocido músico y productor Steve Albini en el Estudio Electrical Audio. De acuerdo a Cuneiform, la banda había “soñado durante mucho tiempo con un álbum que honrara la música que despertó sus obsesiones musicales de toda la vida. Se trata de un álbum de melodías vocales increíblemente hermosas dedicadas a Herb Alpert, Burt Bacharach y al compañero de banda de Cheer-Accident, Phil Bonnet (fallecido en 1999). “Vacate” se sumerge profundamente en la fuente de la melodía y la memoria en el núcleo del corazón colectivo de la banda”. Thymme Jones, líder del conjunto, señaló que ¿Qué tan perfecto era que Phil y yo estuviéramos juntos en una banda de rock disonante/abrasivo/agresivo y, sin embargo, nuestra convergencia más fuerte estuviera en el área del “easy listening”? De hecho, los cuatro miembros de esta encarnación de Cheer-Accident de los años 90 compartían una profunda pasión por esta música, y hubo murmullos de dedicar un álbum completo a este género. Y ahora, un año después de la muerte de Burt y 25 años después de la muerte de Phil, hemos abierto este cofre del tesoro de canciones emotivas”. Al final del programa, viajamos al pasado algunos años en la historia de la agrupación, para escucharlos con material del disco de 2017, “Putting Off Death”.
Alright look, we have to question EVERYTHING and that includes subjects like flat earth. Bob and CHUD look for their breaking points as to where they could believe the earth to be a globe once again. Neither seem to budge, but at least they're looking at things from all angles. This conversation should be fascinating to people on both sides of this argument. Special thanks to Negativland, OTE and Cheer-Accident for musical programming. Questions and comments can go to esotericgore@protonmail.com
This week Bob and CHUD start out talking about coal mines which leads to giant ancient trees, giant people, fae people, titans and a little bit of movie talk interspersed throughout. Once again, this is the type of conversation that keeps us sane! Special thanks to Negativland, OTE and Cheer Accident for music programming.

Steve Albini (born July 22, 1961) is an American musician, record producer, audio engineer and music journalist. He was a member of Big Black, Rapeman and Flour, and is a member of Shellac. He is the founder, owner and principal engineer of Electrical Audio, a recording studio complex in Chicago. In 2018, Albini estimated that he had worked on several thousand albums over his career. He has worked with acts such as Nirvana, Pixies, the Breeders and PJ Harvey. Albini is also known for his outspoken views on the music industry, having stated repeatedly that it financially exploits artists and homogenizes their sound, as well as the flaws in the digital recording process and the superiority of analog technology. Albini's engineering skills have been celebrated for their sense of space, naturalistic tone, and the power of his guitar and drum sounds; his own guitar work is as imaginatively abrasive as his lyrics, which can be challenging and sometimes confrontational. Nearly alone among well-known producers and musicians, Albini refuses to take ongoing royalties from album sales, feeling that a producer's job is to record the music to the band's desires, and that paying producers as if they had contributed artistically to an album is unethical. In this episode, part two of a series of two, all songs selected by Steve Albini as guest for Australian TV show Rage, on June 29 2013. Lineup: Bill Withers, Stevie Wonder, Repercussions, Curtis Mayfield, Philip Glass, Broadcast, Chrome, Sisters of Mercy, Venom P.

Questa notte a Battiti ascoltiamo una serie di canzoni oblique e palpitanti partendo dai Cheer-Accident, il collettivo di lungo corso del rock progressivo americano e dal sorprendente e sempre originale chitarrista Gary Lucas
Fear Draws Misfortune (2009) es el 16º disco en estudio de la banda norteamericana, originaria de Chicago, Cheer-Accident. Cheer-Accident ha sido una fuerza creativa e interesante en la música Rock in Opposition, Avant-Rock.Es un álbum muy convincente y de gran alcance que utiliza una amplia variedad de ideas, estilos y técnicas de estudio, lo que resulta en un álbum cohesivo y ambicioso de art-rock. La banda básica es un trío que entre ellos tocan voces, teclados, trompetas, guitarras, bajo y batería, pero se complementan con 15 músicos adicionales que, cada uno a su manera, aportan sus propios dones musicales al álbum.

A este Paso, Texas, SAN ONOFRE pronto intercambiará globitos con la Ruido de Huesos. ¡Qué Cisco, Houston! Empero, este reo soltanto agonizaremos por psevdorrécord onofricida con la ¿segunda? rola más larga de nuestra dilatada historia onofrita. Cheer Accident son los perpetradores de semejante boutade onofrizante (valga la rebuznancia). Graban en Skin Graft e intercambian globitos con el histriónico baterista blanco de la época del Swing Gene Krupa. Y Vstet, amiga onofrita, do you swing? Hay que tener principios, dice onofrita cuñeja extraída (cual muela de El Lebrel tras atracón de morcillas y torreznos) de American Graffiti. Totalmente de acuerdo, ¡pero también hay que tener Swing, demonios! Y, señora, si a Vsté no le gusta mi modo de bailar el Swing... tengo otro. "God told me to skin you alive". Vale, Jello, majo. Nuestra revenía piel onofrita también está hecha de jirones de otros mostros humanos. Ah, y en el subsiguiente episodio de Ruido de Huesos eta de la SAN ONOFRE, una hora entera (será comunera) dedicada a intercambiar globitos con la imprescindible, ruidista, chanante, transplantadora de piel disquera chicagona Skin Graft. Ya que nos ponemos (hasta las trancas en La Discotaberna, el fevdo de El Marqués de la Llanilla) habemos lanzado anzuelo a Mark Skin Graft con vistas a tercera taza onofrita de Skin Graft Records para vibrante interviú onofrita. Bueno, lo propio hemos hecho con Los Telúricos Hermanos Cubero, que tendrán de presentar su flamante, rampante nueva placa doble de vinilo robusto como mandan los cánones de El Gordo en SAN ONOFRE. ¿A Los Inefables Cubéricos también les daría clase Andrés Toribio?

I never thought the day would come when I'd get to review an album that had intro and outro songs that both topped 22 minutes long. Well my friends, that day has arrived. I talked about Cheer-Accident's "Introducing, Lemon" and Steve goes on about "The Growlers's "Hot Tropics." We also got a nice visit from Sarah where she tells us to get more MEAN. Cause apparently we're too NICE. xoxo - Carl.

Ep. 46 Special: Origin of Roderick on the Line - Roderick on the Line on Huffduffer 5by5 | Back to Work #31: You Can Polish AC/DC All Day Long (August 30, 2011) Hey, gang. Merlin here. One year ago this week, the first episode of Roderick on the Line went up. To commemorate the occasion, I wanted to share a little bit of history with you, as well as just say, “thanks.” Here’s the thing: John and I have been pals for about a decade now. And, as we’ve discussed on the program from time to time, we’ve had a longstanding habit of engaging in very, very long conversations, both in-person and on the phone, about pretty much any topic you can imagine. A fact born out by any of the 40+ episodes of this show so far. Now, in terms of the pre-pre-history of RotL, a seed was planted when I interviewed John for a thing I used to do called, The Merlin Show (n.b.: you can find video and audio of that interview over here). It was a riot to do, and I really recommend checking it out for both Roderick newbies and completists alike. You will find it very helpful. As you do. But, the real impetus for this show arose by accident last Summer, when my Back to Work co-host, Dan Benjamin, was on paternity leave. In Dan’s brief absence, I decided to interview three interesting friends about their life and how they work. One of my victims was, of course, The Great Man himself—the bearded oracle who ended up being the titular co-host of this very program: Mr. John Morgan Roderick. On that episode, John and I talked about lots of different stuff to be sure (full show notes below), but, as a careful listener of the current program will immediately pick up, you will also hear the genesis of what would become numerous leitmotifs from what would soon become the canonical RotL. There’s John’s deep historical pedagogy. There’s John’s perspicacious cultural criticism. There’s John’s first singing my name to the tune of Janet Jackson’s 1986 hit, “Nasty.” There’s John (again) hearing my formal pitch to do a new podcast called, “Roderick on the Line.” And, yes: there is John’s bell. I hope you will enjoy this important cultural document and are able to appreciate its gravitas as the undergirding for this august platform by which John helps so many people each week. And, let it not go without saying, my having the chance to do this show with John every week is one of the joys of my life. I look forward to recording it, I look forward to “editing” it, and, yes, I really look forward to hearing the finished product. I’m proud to be involved, and I’m really grateful to my great pal for making the time to do it. Finally, thanks to all of you for a year of listening and being helped. You are Generation Super Train, and, I hope to God you survive to find a tolerable position in John’s horribly twisted Utopian Dystopia. In any case. Please continue. Original Back to Work Show Notes With Dan on sabbatical, Merlin is joined by John Roderick of The Long Winters to talk about life as a bull in a china closet, craving real-world constraints, making better records, and being banned for life from Interpol’s corn chip bowl.
