    GIOVEDI 23 APRILE @ S.pa La Cupa h.21.30

    MOHA! (Nor)
    BEASTS (Ita)
    SBACH (Usa)

    I MoHa! sono uno dei giovani nomi di spicco della Rune Grammofon, etichetta norvegese che può vantare tra le sue file artisti del calibro di Supersilent, Motorpsycho e Scorch Trio, formazioni insomma che con le loro imperscutabili (ma maledettamente accessibili) miscele di free-jazz, avanguardia, noise, psichedelia, stanno scrivendo una delle pagine più importanti della musica del 2000.

    Il duo di Stavanger esplora territori lugubri, affrontandoli ora con scansioni ritmiche math/prog, ora con clangori e singulti rumorosi e sospesi, in ogni caso lontani da una staticità senza rischi.

    Degni portavoce del suono "norvegese" e, a nostro parere, tra i migliori gruppi che possiamo vantare nelle Marche e oltre, i Beasts rincareranno la dose con i loro intrecci abrasivi di chitarra, batteria e power electronics.

    AGGIORNAMENTO: interverranno anche i californiani sBACH (Usa), band di Spencer Seim (chitarrista degli Hella).

    What hope do we offer the nuclear race?
    And what do we do with the nuclear waste?
    We can’t bury it down, it can’t swim in the sea,
    So what do we do with this grim legacy?
    Well I’ll tell you the truth, and I’ll make it quite plain,
    We can’t shoot it in space, or let it wash down the drain.

    So we leave it behind for the kids yet to come,
    That bittersweet taste of the nuclear bomb.

    Well the kids of tomorrow have no words to say
    For the world we leave and the price they will pay.

    Caretakers are we and for what do we stand?
    For the love of the life on this sacred land.

    What hope for the child in this world of ill care
    Lies deep with the meek on a wing and a prayer,
    That these Gods will see reason for the land, sea, and air,
    And the hope in the future for the life that lives there.

    Caretakers are we, and for what do we stand?
    For the love of the life on this sacred land.

    What reason for money when you can’t breathe the air?
    And the oceans and lakes they lay barren and bare,
    And the streams and the rivers run sewerage and poison
    With no drink to spair,
    Caretakers are we, and for what do we stand?
    For the love of the life on this sacred land.


    The ice caps are melting thers holes in the sky, we poison the earth for the sake of a lie, its time for the one and the all standing by to take hold of the reigns and put an end to this crime for we are the meek and now is our time,,,,caretakers are we and for what do we stand,, for the love of all life on this sacred land www. goodisplanetearth.

    USA IS A MONSTER (USA)
    www.myspace.com/usaisamonster

    USA IS A MONSTER sono un gruppo che ha fatto dell’etica Do It Yourself la propria ragione di vita, che ha scelto l’approccio punk quale modalità di iniziazione al suono, che è passato dall’hard rock esoterico in salsa Black Sabbath al free jazz di John Coltrane senza battere ciglio e che è infinitamente innamorato del prog rock. The Usa Is A Monster incidono per la Load Rec. (Lighting Bolt, Noxagt, Sightings…) etichetta che si candida al ruolo di Skin Graft degli anni 2000, ma rientrano nel versante più classicamente rock della produzione della label di Providence, almeno nella strumentazione. Chitarra e batteria, qualche occasionale synth, il tutto suonato con la grazia di un cavernicolo. La proposta del duo resta però sempre all’interno dei canoni stilistici dell’etichetta: schizofrenia strumentale, vocalizzi pomp-rock, scale che si rincorrono in vortici allucinogeni, ascensioni melodiche da psycho-free-folk malato in una alternanza tra pezzi molto lunghi e brevi schizzi. Deflagrazioni strumentali: come se i Soft Machine fossero impegnati in una demoniaca jam session con i No Means No! In poche parole una band che spacca, e si raccontano cose favolose dei loro live act. Quindi, come sempre, il consiglio è di non mancare questo appuntamento!!!

    Positive Social Change is the result of Pressure from the People, it's not the gift of sympathetic 'leaders'.

    I'm oil, I formed from the buried remains of organic matter from millions of years ago. Industrial society is dependent on me, as I power every aspact of it. I'm a fossil fuel providing 40% of the worlds energy. I power 90% of all the transporations. Not only as a fuel I'm also a building block for everyday consumer goods from plastics which has an unlimited array of uses. I also help make industrial agriculture possible, fueled by the green revolution, there's a increasing dependence on fertilizer and pesticides made from petroleum, which helps substantally increase the food production, therefore raising the world population to over 6.2 billion people, and proving Thomas Malthus wrong. The U.S burns about 20 million barrels of me, and the world burns about 84 million barrels a day. The demand just keeps increasing because increasing oil demand from Asian economys like China, etc, but the shortage will come soon, as I'm a finite resource.

About me:

Dear Reader, Great change is coming to industrial civilization as we know it. The earth contains a finite amount of oil, and the rate at which we extract this oil is defined by a Hubbert Curve - essentially a bell curve the top of the bell curve is peak oil.The demand for oil is growing, not shrinking; and the world population is growing, not shrinking, while our conventional oil reserve is nearly 50% depleted. All aspacts of modern industrial civilization is dependent of oil. Many people think it only affects what you pay at the gas pump, but this is not the case. It has far greater implication then this. Oil use is not limited to food production, in which approximately 10 calories of fossil fuels are required to produce every 1 calorie of food eaten in the US. Modern medicine, industrial processes ,water distribution, and national defense are each entirely powered by oil and petrochemicals. Oil is entirely used to make petro-chemicals, which in turn is the backbone of plastics, the precurser to alot of consumer goods. Not only that all is pegged to our GDP, which our economy is dependent on it for growth. Caption for image The peak of global petroleum discovery was about 1962 -- we cannot extract more oil than has been found. A couple years ago, the world burned 4 barrels for every one that was found. 2003 was the first year when no new major oil fields (over 500 million barrels - one weeks’ worth) were found. Caption for image On a PER CAPITA basis, peak energy was reached in 1979 and food production per capita is currently in decline................................................................................................... While there is renewable energy will do little to ameliorate the situation. Oil has a superior energy return on energy invested (EROEI) this is the amount of energy invested to obtain energy. While the EROEI of renewable sources barely breaks even. Solar, Wind, Nuclear, Geothermal, Hydro,Biomass: Mainly used to generate electric power, not power transportation. Hydrogen has a EROEI that is nagative, therefore it's not an energy source, but only a carrior just like electricity. Caption for image It’s hard to substitute one form of energy for another coal, oil, hydro, nuclear, solar, wind are difficult to mix Caption for image' Caption for image To sum it up, peak oil is inevitable, it's a matter of when? It is not after running out of oil, it is running out of cheap oil. During the 1970s oil shocks, arabic countries set an oil embargo. This was due to poitical reason and the shortfall is only a few million barrels, yet this causes an economic recession. Imagine as each year oil production declines 2-3% a year after peak, while our demand for oil keeps rising 2-3% a year, producing a 4-6% shortfall each year. Runaway inflation will soon set in as our system is dependent on growth, each year it will keep declining, and imagine the market shattering effects year after year. Caption for image If industrial civilization does not figure out how to survive and thrive without cheap fossil energy, then technological civilization will be a short blip in the history of our species, hence the Olduvai theory. As we slide into the dark ages, the stone age is just around the corner. Caption for image
