GODSTAR :: S/HE IS HERE

PSYCHIC TV IS DEAD/LONG LIVE PTV3



Genesis P-Orridge and his troupe of godstars are heading up north again. Saturday 29. september at Blå – and i could hold my breath ´til then ... but i have to prepare.

I`ve been granted an interview with Genesis P-Orridge. Though we´ve met before, it was just a social meet and greet – however, he called out from stage «Here comes your song», pointed at me and started playing «Godstar» ... I will never grow up – i´m such an idolizer. That said, you could do far worse than to idolize someone as gentle, intelligent and inspirational as Genesis P-Orridge.

I discovered Psychic TV through my obsession with Marc Almond and Soft Cell. And after that Coil of course. Musick, Magick & Mayhem.

Check out, and buy, the new album by PTV3, «Hell Is Invisible...Heaven Is Here»


And I will share with you two of my favourite Psychic TV tracks.
First up is, of course, «Godstar» (Temple Records 1984). A haunting lovesong for Brian Jones, «one of the Rolling Stones …».

Genesis P-Orridge was not only a pioneer of industrial music, but Psychic TV was well into the wave of sound that would become techno and acid house. «Re-mind» from the album «Peak Hour» (Temple Records 1993) is a perfect example of magick mixed with rhythm.

THIS IS PTV3!






AND TO FUEL YOUR DESIRE: A FLICK FROM WAY BACK WHEN ... PSYCHIC TV «YOUR BODY»

RELAX, IT´S BETTER THAN SEX


Thighpaulsandra came to my attention through his work with Coil, and later i found he´d worked with various acts like Spiritulized and Julian Cope.

What drew me to him in the end was the controversy over the artwork of his release «Double Vulgar» (2005). The artwork for the album caused some controversy with several printers not willing to reproduce the homoerotic imagery.

The follow up, «Double Vulgar II» was delayed, possibly for the same reason, along with the passing of friend and colleague John Balance of Coil.

This unapologetically queer release shows masturbatory artwork of Thighpaulsandra sacrificing young model boy Chris Jones.
The images go through the various states of capture until the boy’s dead body is lying naked in a field.

NO MORE SCREAMING SKULLS

Adam Ant! Please, come back and reclaime the skull and crossbone!

I´m so fed up with all the cheap skull and crossbone-design floating around these days. And i can´t understand how they can get away with ripping of designers like for example Vivienne Westwood ... they have no shame.
Anyways; i´m not turning this blog into a fashion-blog. I`ll leave that that to my dear friend BARON von BULLDOG, and other fashionistas/style terrorists like OSLO FASHION and BEAUTIFUL STRANGER.

This post is just an excuse to flaunt my wishlist at the moment. Why go for the skeleton designs that everyone, and their baby sister, is wearing at the moment, when you can get hold of these kool items?

I want! I want!

And the soundtrack to this imaginary catwalk happening would be these amazing tunes - there, i made it back to the theme i am supposed to promote: kick ass music. Enjoy!

NEON ANGELS AND SILVER SCREENS

This must be the best news i´ve read in a long long time!

Just imagine what an orgasm, at least if you are anything like me: Joan Jett teams up with Floria Sigismondi .... whooooaaaaarrrr!!!

RUNAWAYS HEAD TO THE BIGSCREEN


The '70s teenage band the Runaways has a new gig. Producers Art and John Linson will be bringing their rough and tumble coming-of-age story to the bigscreen in "Neon Angels."

Floria Sigismondi, who directed videos for David Bowie, the White Stripes and Marilyn Manson, will write and direct the drama about girls brought together by Kim Fowley, creating a band that would set the stage for girl groups like the Go-Go's and the Bangles.

The Linsons secured music rights and deals that allow them to tell the stories of members Joan Jett, Cherie Currie and the late Sandy West. An unpublished memoir written by lead singer Curie will be used as a resource for a drama that intends to bare all the drugs, sex and heartache experienced by girls who struggled to be viewed as musicians, not sex kittens with guitars.

"We certainly utilized to our advantage our image as teenage girls who wore titillating clothes," Jett told Daily Variety. "But we also became an excellent band and made it OK for girls to play rock 'n' roll. It got hard once people focused more on what we were wearing than what we were playing."

The group fared better in countries like England, Japan and Scandinavia, and broke up in 1979. Jett went on to solo success.

"Looking back, I loved that period of my life," she said. "Growing up, my fantasy was to play in a rock band, become famous and make a hit record."

Art Linson said the film will be financed independently, which he did recently on the Sean Penn-directed "Into the Wild" and the Robert De Niro starrer "What Just Happened?" That will allow "Neon Angel" to be R-rated and edgy, factors that were important to Jett and Curie.

Jett will be exec producer, along with her longtime
manager
-producer Kenny Laguna and Brian Young.

«BRING ON THE DRAG QUEEN, BITCH!»



One of the funniest records, ever. Boy George`s alter ego, The Real Feminem, gave Eminem a run for his money and «sir» Elton John a good kicking with this awesome tune.
Originally released as 12" and only 500 copies - so you can imagine how hard it is to track down ...

Here are the lyrics, and you can download the track further down. Enjoy!

THE REAL FEMINEM «SWALLOW ME!»
GUESS WHO'S BACK
GUESS WHO'S BACK
GUESS WHO'S BACK
GUESS WHO'S BACK
GUESS WHO'S BACK
YOU AIN'T BLACK!

SO YOU WERE POOR
AND YOU WERE TRAILER TRASH
NOW YA LIVING LIKE ELVIS ROLLIN' IN CASH

BET YA HOUSE IS REAL PALATIAL
HEY PRETTY BOY DID YOU ENJOY YOUR FACIAL

AIN'T THAT SHIT SUPPOSE TO CALM YA DOWN
WHY YOU SO ANGRY, COS YOU AIN`T BROWN

DISSIN` MOBY FOR SPEAKING HIS MIND
WELL YOU SPEAK YOURS, SO I`LL SPEAK MINE

WHAT`S THE WORST YOU CAN LEVEL AT ME
COZ I`M OLD HUH?
PAST MY PRIME
IF YOU CAN`T DO THE TIME, THEN DON`T DO THE CRIME
BRING ON THE DRAG QUEEN, BITCH

THIS LOOKS LIKE A BLOW JOB TO ME
COZ WHAT WE NEED IS SOME CONTROVERSY
EVERYBODY SUCK, JUST SWALLOW ME
COS I LIKE A BIG DICK UP MY DISH

MTV KILLED ROCK `N` ROLL
THEY DON`T PLAY ME NO, BUT I`M PROUD OF MY SOUL
I`M INTO DICK AND I CAN SWALLOW IT WHOLE

FAGS, CALLING YOU GENIUS
COME ON, THAT`S LIKE SCORING A HOME GOAL
WHITE BOYS GETTING INTO RAP
SO CLEVER WITH WORDS, IT`S THE SAME OLD CRAP

BE PREDICTABLE PLAY THE GAME
LIKE VANILLA ICE TRY INTO RAP AGAIN

NOWHERE TO RUN, NOWHERE TO HIDE
WHEN THERE`S GAY MEN BEING CRUCIFIED
MATTHEW SHEPHERD, REMEMBER THAT NAME
HE WAS KILLED, DO YOU FEEL NO SHAME

LISTEN UP, SIR ELTON JOHN
ANYTHING FOR FAME WELL YOU GOT IT WRONG

THIS LOOKS LIKE A BLOW JOB TO ME
COZ WHAT WE NEED IS SOME CONTROVERSY
EVERYBODY SUCK, JUST SWALLOW ME
COS I LIKE A BIG DICK UP MY DISH

STRANGE FRUIT HANGING FROM TREES
HOMOPHOBIA IS THE SAME DISEASE
PROUD TO BE BLACK, PROUD TO BE GAY
I DON`T PISS IN MY HANDBAG
DR. DRE

LAST NIGHT A DJ FUCKED YOUR MAN YEAH
LAST NIGHT A DJ FUCKED YOUR MAN YEAH
WE WERE AT IT ALL NIGHT LONG, AND THEN HE HEARD THIS SONG
HE SAID I GOTTA GET UP, GOTTA GET UP, GOTTA RUN AWAY NOW

STILL SKILLED AT THE ART OF FALLING APART ...



Marc Almond turned 50 recently and just released a new album, «Stardom Road».
I just wanted to say to you all: BUY IT!

Get more info here: THE THEATRE OF MARC ALMOND

And of course: HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARC ALMOND!
... i´ve loved you since ... i know, we don´t count years anymore do we?

BIRTHDAY PRESENT!
What i want to share is a favourite from Soft Cell. The tune «Sex Dwarf» has been doing numerous rounds on turntables in clubs and at parties where i´ve played.

Around easter i went to London, and in Rough Trade i found this amazing 12”, see-through red vinyl.
On one side: Soft Cell «Sex Dwarf». On the other side: Nitzer Ebb «Join In The Chant». Both tunes remixed by Peter Black.

I remember searching high and low for the shock-video to «Sex Dwarf». The original version of the music video featured Marc Almond and Dave Ball in a bloody butcher shop surrounded by chainsaws, nude actors, and dwarves. However, the film was confiscated by police and censored before it was even released. As a tongue-in-cheek substitute, a re-filmed «Sex Dwarf» appeared in «Non-Stop Exotic Video Show» featuring Marc Almond dressed in a tuxedo, directing a symphony orchestra of dwarves.

Get ready for another week and download this if you want to make ´til the weekend: SOFT CELL «SEX DWARF» PETER BLACK REMIX

KUNSTMUZIK AUS NORWEGEN

If Yoko Ono had a secret love child with a Boyd Rice-lookalike from somewhere in the norwegian mountains the child would probably grow up, start making music and release it all under the name MASKINANLEGG.

This is uplifting, either way you choose to define «uplifting». But don`t take my word for it, take theirs; Sociopath Recordings.


MASKINANLEGG

Maskinanlegg is 100% queernoise, making people dancing or chocked, allways leaving them wanting less. Maskinanlegg are lo-fi, dirty, industrial sounds spanning from harshnoise to disco.

Maskinanlegg uses old tapes and vinylrecords from the garbage-cans of better artists, old electronics (moogs satelite, Roland Rythm 77, Yamaha drummachine and lot's of keyboards etc).

Maskinanlegg samples and copys all that he fancies and destroys everything he touches. This beat is Maskinanlegg.

R.I.P Isabella Blow

Stylist and fashion guru Isabella Blow, a vibrant and often outrageous presence on the British fashion scene, has died, her husband said. She was 48.

Detmar Blow said she died in the Gloucestershire Royal Hospital in western England. News reports said she had recently been diagnosed with ovarian cancer.

Renowned for her larger-than-life hats and blood-red lipstick, Blow was credited with discovering designer Alexander McQueen and milliner Philip Treacey. She helped launch the careers of models including Stella Tennant and Sophie Dahl.


Most recently, Blow was an editor-at-large for Tatler magazine.

«She was in the office just last week, bursting with ideas. They sounded impossible, but you always knew with Isabella it would work and be marvelous» Tatler Editor Geordie Greig told The Daily Telegraph. «She was bored by cliches. She didn't do ordinary or dull.»

Born Isabella Delves Broughton in London in 1958, Blow moved to New York in 1979 to study ancient Chinese art at Columbia University. She soon dropped out and moved to west Texas to work for Guy Laroche.

In 1981, she met Anna Wintour, then fashion director of U.S. Vogue, and was hired as her assistant.

«I don't think she ever did my expenses, but she made life much more interesting» Wintour told The Times newspaper on Monday.

Blow later returned to London, where she worked for Tatler, the Sunday Times and British Vogue.

She met Detmar, an art dealer, at a wedding in 1987. They became engaged just 16 days later and married the following year.

Blow asked Treacey to design her bridal headdress, and a fashion collaboration was born.

She would serve as muse for a host of Treacey headgear, including «The Ship» _ a replica 18th century clipper in full rigging. Another creation, the «Gilbert & George» _ a mass of pink and green lacquered ostrich feathers stuck into a mortar board _ was so wide that Blow was unable to navigate the door of the charity event for which she had ordered it.

A 2002 exhibition and accompanying book, «When Philip Met Isabella» featured Blow in some of Treacey's most memorable creations.

«I don't use a hat as a prop. I use it as a part of me» she told The Guardian newspaper before the exhibition's launch. «If I am feeling really low, I go and see Philip, cover my face and feel fantastic.»
