EPISODIO ESPECIAL - Platiqué con Barry Burns, guitarrista, tecladista y vocalista de la banda escocesa Mogwai, para Ibero 90.9, en el contexto de su presentación en Corona Capital 2025. Platicamos sobre el caos, el instinto y la inevitable honestidad de la música instrumental. Con su nuevo álbum, The Bad Fire, como contexto, descubrimos que el post-rock instrumental que han perfeccionado durante casi tres décadas es mucho menos "cerebral" de lo que yo pensaba y más bien una forma de expresión instintiva y visceral. Barry, con su humor súper escocés, nos guía por las dinámicas del silencio, la explosión y, sobre todo, la ética escocesa para hacer música sin preocuparse demasiado. En esta Mezcla Abrupta, Barry y yo hablamos de:

Wir widmen uns drei weiteren Bands aus dem Post-Punk-Universum. Den Swans aus New York, den Sugarcubes aus Island und The Wolfgang Press aus London. Musikalisch völlig unterschiedlich aber jede auf ihre Art spannend. Da sind die monströsen Swans, die mit lauten, monoton dröhnenden und sich wiederholenden Industrialrhythmen begannen, bevor sie sich über dunkel melodische Songs zum Post-Rock entwickelten. Die Sugarcubes, ein anarchisches Künstlerkollektiv aus Reykjavík, die eher zufällig eine "Single of the Week" in Großbritannien landeten und dadurch zu Stars der Independent-Szene wurden. Und The Wolfgang Press, bei denen nie ein Album wie ein anderes klang und aus denen von einer Art Post-Punk-Industrial-Band ein groovy Funk-Act wurde. Aber hört selbst, was wir zu den drei Bands zu erzählen haben.Die Anhör-Tipps der Folge sind die britische Band Social Youth Cult und das Projekt unseres Hörers Andreas - Motten. Hier das im Podcast angekündigte Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=srv1akqfUU4&list=RDsrv1akqfUU4&start_radio=1Der erwähnte Film über die isländische Musikszene heißt "Screaming Masterpiece" und ist von 2005. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2MasXbB-BtU&list=RD2MasXbB-BtU&start_radio=1&t=2954sAbonniert diesen Podcast und folgt uns auf Facebook und / oder InstagramKontakt: prost-punk@web.de

Discord & Rhyme continues its slow walk through the world of Post-Rock with an examination of the 1996 album Millions Now Living Will Never Die by the Chicago-based group Tortoise. John has been fascinated by the concept of Post-Rock for many years (even if many of the acts associated with it, Tortoise included, rejected it as a useful descriptor), and a large part of this fascination stems from a love he has had for this album for over 20 years. In this episode, John, Mike, Rich, and Dan try to make sense not only of how one should define one of the most ambiguous genres out there, but also of why an instrumental album in that genre (possibly), mostly lacking clear traditional melodies and traditional song structures (the opening “Djed” is 21 minutes by itself), is clearly one of the best albums any of us have ever heard. Regardless of whether Tortoise is Post-Rock, Prog, both, or neither, this is an album worth learning about, and Discord & Rhyme is up to the challenge.Cohosts: John McFerrin, Mike DeFabio, Rich Bunnell, Dan WatkinsComplete show notes: https://discordpod.com/listen/156-tortoise-millions-now-living-will-never-die-1996Discord & Rhyme's merch store: http://tee.pub/lic/discordpodSupport the podcast! https://www.patreon.com/discordpod

Is 'Spirit Of Eden', the fourth studio album by British band Talk Talk, a deceptively understated masterpiece or an indulgent musical experiment gone awry? Rob and this week's returning guest Tom Lawery fall decidedly in the former camp. Released in 1988, the record is now often cited as the precursor to later so-called 'post-rock' albums by bands like Mogwai, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Low and latter-period Radiohead. A year in its creation, painstakingly assembled from improvised performances that draw on elements of jazz, ambient, classical music, blues and dub, it's an album that ultimately rewards the deep-listen it requires. Songs discussed in this episode: The Rainbow, Talk Talk, April 5th, Life's What You Make It - Talk Talk; It's My Life (Talk Talk cover) - No Doubt; East Hastings - Godspeed You! Black Emperor; No Face, No Name, No Number - Traffic; The BEATen Generation - The The; The Rainbow - Talk Talk; Teen Age Riot - Sonic Youth; Eden - Talk Talk; Heroin - The Velvet Underground; Desire, Inheritance - Talk Talk; I'm Flying - The Shits; Do Anything You Wanna Do - Eddie and the Hot Rods; I Believe In You, Wealth - Talk Talk; The Watershed - Mark Hollis; I Believe In You (Talk Talk cover) - S.
