WIN TICKETS TO MISTER SATURDAY NIGHT & SUNDAY BEST
We've got two pairs of tickets to give away to each of the weekend's best parties. First up, Mister Saturday Night returns from the great outdoors back underground to the wonderful 12-turn-13 loft in Clinton Hill, where residents Justin Carter and Eamon Harkin will be welcoming Jeremy Greenspan of Junior Boys as guest selector. This isn't just a celebrity set from a band you love, though. Jeremy is a bona fide disc jockey, having released a top-notch mix CD on Get Physical a couple years back, and spending plenty of time around the world mixing records. Beers will be on the house for the first hour of the evening. To enter to win two guest spots, email giveaway@othermusic.com.
The next day, residents Justin, Eamon and Doug Singer will be hosting their weekly Sunday Best party with special guest Alex from Tokyo (who's actually based in NYC), making a rare Stateside appearance serving up his specialty, a lush, melodic set of deep house, at the new home of Sunday Best, the charming outdoor space of Brooklyn Fire Proof in Bushwick. Enter to win a pair of tickets to this one by emailing tickets@othermusic.com. We'll notify the winners for both of these parties on Friday afternoon.

UPCOMING OTHER MUSIC IN-STORE PERFORMANCES
ZOLA JESUS: MONDAY, JULY 12 @ 8PM
Zola Jesus will be playing live Other Music, probably the most intimate performance in a summer tour that will take her and her band through the United States sharing the stage with groups like Wolf Parade and the xx as well as several European dates with Fever Ray. Don't miss this one!!
DYLAN LEBLANC: TUESDAY, JULY 20 @ 8PM
When Dylan LeBlanc performed on the acoustic stage at the Other Music/Dig For Fire SXSW Lawn Party this year, all we really knew about him was that Geoff Travis had signed the 20-year-old Louisiana native to Rough Trade -- that was enough for us to book him. LeBlanc was probably the biggest, best surprise of the weekend, a mesmerizing singer/songwriter whose forthcoming debut album (due out 8/24) is excellent, and will undoubtedly launch him onto a much bigger stage. See him here first!

"Towns That Disappeared Completely"
"The Family Watches"
Minimal techno originator and creator of seminal albums like Minimal Nation and Internal Empire, Robert Hood returns with Omega, and again stakes his claim as one of the best and most forward-thinking producers in the genre. While so many of today's limelight-occupying producers are (rightfully) looking back to classic Detroit and Chicago for inspiration, one of the originals is here to show all of us how it's really done with an incredibly surprising level of grace and poise. In true form, Hood utilizes his signature M.O.: the time-honored Detroit techno method of peering from the city's urban decay and looking towards an imaginary future. Here, he also adds some inspiration from the post-apocalyptic, sci-fi horror classic, Omega Man -- which proves to be a nice contrast to the art-house leanings of Jeff Mills' use of Metropolis. Rumor has it Omega Man is a childhood favorite of Hood's and judging from the utterly sophisticated intensity of this album, it really shows.
You can always count on great things from Rob Hood, but I have to say it would have been too much to expect an album this good so far into any techno producer's career. After the first two stark, eerie mood-setting pieces, Omega kicks into "Towns That Disappeared Completely." This is the first taste of what Hood demonstrates throughout the record: his ability to overwhelm with both exceptionally thoughtful and inherently funky compositional ideas. His tracks have reached a new level of sonic intricacy that builds in unexpected ways but without being cluttered, tricky or in a hurry to get anywhere. Expectations are destroyed over and over again as Hood deftly shifts the tracks' momentum, with surprising changes and bonus layers of sound that would become a mess in a lesser producer's hands. Imagine Green Velvet collaborating with Sahko-era Vaino -- to be specific, I hear the inviting, jacking intensity of the former ("The War in the Streets") and the precise, sci-fi minimal frequencies of the latter ("The Family Watches"). Now add the poppy stomp of Reinhard Voigt ("Alpha"), the edgy drive of Dettman and Ost Gut Ton, the chopped and screwed techno of Brinkmann, the handmade composition of Redshape, the laidback ease of Villalobos ("Workers of Iniquity")... there is just so much good stuff going on here! I feel like he's been listening to all these guys and more and finally just said, "Alright, I got that."
Is it Hood's passion for the music, the film, or a desire to just destroy all in his path? The music here displays a delicate balance of classic Robert Hood relentlessness with a new level of sophistication and finesse. These tracks are not just 'tracks' either; they just keep on giving and giving with sound/texture/dynamics that leave you guessing what's coming next. (Over and over my mind reaches for the term 'maximal techno' instead of 'minimal techno'.) As usual, Hood injects a rare amount human-ness, i.e. 'soul' -- it's the man running the machines and not the other way around. I could go on... 9.9 out of 10. (I'd say 10, but you then you wouldn't believe me.) I love this record and it's at the top of my list for best techno albums of the year so far. Thank you Robert Hood! [SM]

Armaggedon
(Katalyst)
"Creation of the Beast"
"The Window"
Archival release of a blistering ensemble session, live in Chicago at Cohran's own Afro Arts Theater circa 1968. Phil Cohran was an early member of Sun Ra's Arkestra, but quickly decided to pursue his own intellectual interests as a bandleader, introducing his theories of the harmony of all matter, or what he has dubbed, "sphereology." The conceptual arc of his compositions, by nature of their grand focus, gives Cohran's music a verisimilitude not often found in other spiritual jazz artists, who can tend toward the forced and costumey. Cohran's works are malleable and fluid, harmonic lines searching for their corners in each sphere that the band's interplay creates. There is almost always some kind of drone in Cohran's work, whether vocal, bass or brass, and nowhere is this more evident than on this performance's centerpiece, "The Window." With a haunting and hypnotic rhythm kept throughout the track's 11-plus minutes on the amplified kalimba (or in Cohran-speak, the Frankiphone), instruments gradually appear and descend, doubling back on themselves in ebbing harmonic conjunctions. "Creation of the Beast" and "The Warning" play out ominously, as if calling an audience to action, surely aided by the energies in the room, full of sympathetic supporters. The track "Armageddon" is the show's most fiery moment, with some scathing LeRoi Jones-esque Afro-centric incantations laid over machinegun drums and Morse code bass patterns, giving way to a majestic convalescence that is a tenet of Cohran's work to this day. With each of these Cohran releases, we get another window into a truly unique creative American spirit, and one who is long overdue to take his place among the countercultural jazz legends of the 60s.

Who Say I Tire
(Vampi-Soul)
"Only in My Sleep"
"Ayinde Ogo"
Though he's popped up on a couple of compilations in the past few years as the push to anthologize all things Nigerian has reached fever pitch, relatively little attention has still been paid to singer and songwriter Segun Bucknor. A contemporary of Fela Kuti as he was formulating the first strains of what would become his Afrobeat sound, Bucknor's sound and style undoubtedly owe an important debt to that giant of a man; all the same, it was the time Bucknor spent as a student in America that had the most significant impact on his music when he returned to his native Nigeria. As much as he reveled in hard-charging funk, Bucknor was obviously infected by the strains of American soul music that were on the rise in the 1960s, a sound that he would incorporate into his own music once he started gigging around with bands like the Revolution and the Assembly back home.
With an earlier collection of Bucknor's music from the Strut label now long out of print, Who Say I Tire shines a light once more on his activities from the late 1960s to the early 1970s. Ranging from obvious attempts at pop hits to reflections on the (then-) troubled times in which he lived and salutes to his home country, the sixteen tracks scattered across these two discs display a marked diversity. Songs like "Love and Affection" "La La La" (more so the so-called "Hard Version"), and "Dye Dye" are immediately anthemic, uniting strong rhythms with stabbing horns to make for some of Bucknor's more succinct and immediate pieces, tracks that could have easily lit up floors during their heyday (not to mention today). Elsewhere, he goes deeper, reflecting on Nigerian unrest in "Son of January 15th," while "Ayinde Ogo" sports a low-slung groove and chants in his native tongue. Almost always stripped down to just the essentials needed to let his passionate, oft-searing voice ring out loud and clear, the music collected here will hopefully bring Segun Bucknor a little bit of the acclaim being handed out to so many of his once-contemporaries these days.

(Minimal Wave)
Another great find from Minimal Wave, this one a blend of studio and demo tracks (made after meeting in 1981) from synthwave/pop duo Deux, entitled Decadence. Surprisingly, the excellent reissue label (with the occasional new artist) is maintaining their quality while also pushing a healthy bit of diversity, and this record bears the honorable title of Minimal Wave's most warm and inviting release to date.
Deux's style can be hard to pin down; theirs is a rare combination of Kraftwerk precision (ranging from their upbeat pop to the more dramatic sounds) and a coldwave coolness flavored by the vibe of French songwriters like Serge Gainsbourg and Francoise Hardy (with the expected omission of any annoying, overtly '60s sounds). There is at times a basic similarity to Stereo Total (listen to "Paris Orly") as well as Gina X, but the comparison only goes so far, as Deux are utterly elegant and cool. They never allow their songs to go into the hyper, spazzy new wave pogo cliché zone. "Dance With Me" is a perfect example of a Kraftwerk/Serge collaboration. "La Camion" comes across like a Francoise Hardy/Gainsbourg duet for some lost film's end credits. "Sex and Trouble" almost sounds like a French take on the darker side of Altered Images (no squeaking voices here though).
Aside from these, the best final comparison I can make is to fellow Minimal Wavers, Linear Movement. There is just something about a male/female duo that can writes such varied, elegant songs, as sultry and sexy as they are cool and laid back. It's also worth pointing out that though these are synthpop songs that are completely authentic and of the time, the band are not nearly as obsessed with over-arching dramatic synth and bleepy robot pop as was typical. While many of their peers could be accused of being drenched in stylization, Deux manage to infuse the qualities of their genre with a rare degree of intimacy. For mature audiences only perhaps?

Remaster of the Universe
(Permanent Vacation)
Reverso 68 - Piece Together (Todd Terje Remix #2)
Antena - Camino Del Sol (Todd Terje Remix)
While his Norwegian brethren Lindstrøm and Prins Thomas have gotten a head start on him, "Todd" Terje Olsen, who also goes by various nom de plume, including "Chuck Norris" and "Wade Nichols" (which is a shout out to porn star turned disco one-hit wonder Dennis Parker), has caught up with this two-disc set. His deft disco edits of Chic, Michael Jackson, and Paul Simon got Terje loads of play from DJs around the world, and Remaster of the Universe highlights the barely-legal side of the man's body of work. Drawing from a massive back catalog of remixes, this first disc weaves together Terje's reworkings of everybody from Jose Gonzalez to Chaz Jankel, from Studio to M's "Pop Muzik." The second disc culls his more hard to track down work for Antena, Lindstrøm, and Shit Robot. As the premiere name in hot Balearic beats, this is a perfect mix CD set for the summer heat already upon us. Recommended. [AB]

Standing Still, Facing Forward
(Amish)
Preview Songs on Other Music's Download Store
I must admit this album came as something of a surprise to me. Being a fan and follower of Starving Weirdos, a Brian Pyle side-project is always of interest, but I definitely had pre-conceptions about its sound. I figured something dark, a little noisy, maybe improvised, and I don't think any of that is out of the question given Pyle's recording history. Well, Standing Still, Facing Forward is definitely dark, but that's where comparisons to his previous work fall away. The Ensemble Economique project is, as the name may suggest, a place for Pyle to exorcise his 'post classical' demons, but where many of his contemporaries set their sights on the 'beautiful' and 'ethereal,' Pyle plumbs the depths of chaos and terror. These are post-modern soundtracks to a lost Hungarian torture movie (which may or may not have been animated). These are epic sequences from an undiscovered Communist opera, filled with the pain and torment of hundreds of lost souls. I'm not certain how Pyle works and if it's with samples or with instruments, but the result is so arresting that it hardly matters. Fans of Jacaszek's incredible Treny will no doubt get a real kick out of the haunted, gothic orchestrals of Standing Still, Facing Forward, just don't play it too late at night -- you never know what perils the moon might bring.

Heavier Than a Death in the Family
(Phoenix)
"Night of the Assassins"
"Ice Fire"
Blind Baby Has Its Mother's Eyes
"Blind Baby Has Its Mother's Eyes"
"An Aweful Eternitie"
This review is both easy and difficult for me to complete, as I'm privileged to be writing up one of my all-time faves, Les Rallizes Denudes. This music has until now only been available on bootlegged CD-Rs, but finally these two albums get a proper CD reissue on the Phoenix imprint. Monumentally important, ahead-of-its-time music from the '70s post-Group Sounds/Futen scene of Japan, Les Rallizes' vibe has infected countless artists including Fushitsusha/Keiji Haino, as well as Kousokuya and LSD March -- really, pretty much any black-clad, long-haired Japanese band making harrowing, overdriven bliss-out sounds owes it to LRD. I always like to describe the group as a much more evil, nihilistic, bad-trip version of Exploding Plastic Inevitable V.U. meets Psychocandy-era JAMC, complete with that screaming wall of jet-engine guitar. Les Rallizes Denudes also have a way of throwing a bit of doo-wop into the mix, which allows listeners to put their guard down long enough for the band to then explode in their faces like a glass-filled I.E.D.
While there are a number of great records in the LRD catalogue, Heavier Than a Death in the Family and Blind Baby Has Its Mother's Eyes are surely among the best to start with. And you've got to agree, these are two of the coolest record titles of the '70s, maybe ever. I won't go into a blow-by-blow description for each album, but suffice to say that if you're into the idea of plaintive, ghostly, ethereal doo-wop arching and lurching into beautifully anguished, skin-melting sheets of distorted guitar that bring forth curiously appealing images of Godzilla tearing down skyscrapers in slow motion, then this is for you.
Heavier Than... has the essential "Strong Out Deeper Than the Night," "Enter the Mirror" and "Night Collectors" as well as the decidedly more rocked-out and thunderous "People Can Choose" and the screaming, white-hot blizzard of "Ice Fire." The later album of the two, Blind Baby... features the mildly Arabesque "An Aweful Eternitie" and a somewhat more urgent, quicker-than-normal version of the dinosaur dirge, "The Last One," while the title track is a 19-minute epic of especially phased-out, UFO-effected guitar -- for Les Rallizes' headman Mizutani at least. The album also quickly cuts to some folksier and otherwise dissimilar Les Rallizes moments but then jumps back before you know it. (So don't cry "defective CD" my friends. Simply chalk it up to being "Psych-a-Derrick!") Excellent, essential stuff for fans of ultimate blissed-out distortion from the likes of classic bands like Parsons Sound, Spacemen 3, Jesus & Mary Chain, Loop and Godflesh to more current groups like Wooden Shijps, Black Tambourine, Dead Meadow, Bardo Pond, etc., and so on ad infinitum.

Demolicion
(Munster)
I've got a great friend who has hipped me to a countless number of great records over the years. A few years back, when he asked me if I'd ever heard the Saicos and I said no, he got this amazing, far away look in his eyes and said, "Oh man, you gotta get it right away." And really I could tell, more from the look than his words, that this was a bit more than a pretty good record; this was something special. When the needle touched down on "Demolicion," all of that was confirmed and more. Simply put, it is one of the most insane '60s punk songs of all time and if you've never heard it before, it will stop you in your tracks and implant its amazing refrain of "tatatata tatatata yayayaya" in your brain for days to come.
Formed in 1964 in Lima, Peru, Los Saicos recorded and released enough material for six singles, all of which are included here along with unreleased, alternate mixes of two songs. And while there is no doubting that "Demolicion" is the star of the show, that's not to say that the rest of the material is lacking. Cool fuzz-rockers and brooding ballads all delivered with gravel-throated authority, packaged with a 40-page booklet, with detailed notes in both English and Spanish, and a bunch of unseen photos, plus a free download card. Essential stuff: I'm giving you "that look."

TOUCH AND GO ZINE
The Complete Hardcore and Punk Zine '79-'83
(Bazillion Points)
You all know the Touch & Go label as one of the cornerstones of the underground rock scene; the now-defunct imprint helped usher in the post-punk, post-hardcore sound of American indie music in the '80s and '90s (and beyond), with such essential bands as the Butthole Surfers, Big Black, the Jesus Lizard and Slint, up through the Yeah Yeah Yeahs and TV on the Radio. What you may not remember is the fanzine of the same name that founders Tesco Vee (of the Meatmen) and Dave Stimson launched in East Lansing, Michigan, just prior to starting the label with longtime head Corey Rusk. As one of the first 'zines to spring up around the young American hardcore/punk scene, and guided by Vee's irreverent yet deeply passionate style, Touch and Go: The Complete Hardcore and Punk Zine '79-'83 collects all 22 issues, with amazing interviews, gig reports, record reviews, photos, flyers, and much more from bands like Black Flag, Minor Threat, the Misfits, Negative Approach, the Fix, the Avengers, the Necros, Discharge, Iron Cross, Youth Brigade, Faith, Die Kreuzen, Crucifix, Poison Idea, the Minutemen, JFA, 7 Seconds, Bad Religion, and so much more. This is the real D.I.Y., this is American punk rock seen from the trenches. Truly essential reading! [JM]

Hideous Racket EP
(RVNG)
"Hideous Racket"
"Seven Down Six Across"
A really nice EP that took me by surprise with its ear-catching melodies and textural/stylistic variety. Four really good, utterly playable tracks, starting with the Italo disco meets New Order of the title cut; we're not talking about another tired stepchild of "Bizarre Love Triangle" either. They take the chime-y synth-pop side of Technique, or OMD inflected with some Italo synth bells and trumpet melodies, and it works, trust me! Next up is my personal fave, as emotively deep acid meets "Groove la Chord" tech house in "Seven Down Six Across." The flip offers the plodding, slightly C-64 electro disco track "Weird Science" and the cloud-city Vangelis vibe of "Slump" (another fave). Nice stuff here folks. Limited to 550, and I already bought one -- go grab one of the remaining 549! Bonus points for fun interactive sleeve design. [SM]

A Nickel and a Nail & the Ace of Spades
(Reel Music)
"Don't Let My Baby Ride"
"I Can't Take It"
"When you gave O.V. Wright a song, the song belonged to him and nobody would do it that way again." -- Willie Mitchell
Over the past year, we've made it a mission here at OM to expose as many people as possible to the unsung architects of the Memphis soul sound, praising folks like Spencer Wiggins and the great James Carr in our Updates. Well, O.V. Wright was considered by both of these singers as their favorite male vocalist of the time. A lifelong resident of the Germantown section of Memphis, by the age of 15, Wright was already well regarded locally as one of the city's finest gospel singers. In 1956, he recorded his first hit when he was just 17, "Sit Down and Rest a While," as a member of the male gospel quartet the Sunset Travelers. Though Wright's heart and soul belonged to gospel, after a five-year struggle to make ends meet he went solo and started singing R&B, with most of his songs at that time being slight lyrical re-workings of well-known blues and gospel numbers. In 1964, his single "That's How Strong My Love Is" (released on Memphis' legendary Goldwax label) caught the ear of Otis Redding, who would re-record the track later that year, eliminating any chance for Wright's version to ever really make a dent on the charts, though he would have a smash hit the following year with "You're Gonna Make Me Cry."
Wright's biggest breakthrough would come during the early '70s when A Nickel and a Nail and Ace of Spades was released (capitalizing on the two hit singles from which the album took its name), and it is now considered to be one of the finest Memphis soul LPs of the era. Legendary producer Willie Mitchell had produced many songs for Wright prior to this record, but on A Nickel we find Mitchell and his crack studio band solidifying the same grooves that he would spin into gold with the Rev. Al Green some four years later. Arguably it's Mitchell's first production masterpiece and Wright's finest album. Like Carr, Wright shines when he sings ballads like "I Can't Take It" and "Don't Take It Away," both tunes featuring some of the most aching blues vocals you'll ever hear. Wright's gruff, pleading voice is relentless in its pathos, and the testifyin' shoutin' in his delivery would be a direct influence on future Hi Records royalty like Syl Johnson, Al Green and Ann Peebles. In contrast, his biggest hit, "Ace of Spades", is a nasty piece of Memphis funk that'll leave Meter's fans' ears ringing.
Throughout his career, Wright was besieged with bad record deals and a nagging drug problem, and in 1980 at the age of 41, Wright suffered a fatal heart attack before a gig, dying in obscurity and buried in an unmarked grave in Memphis until finally provided a headstone in 2008. In recent years, singers like Cee-Lo Green, Amy Winehouse and Sharon Jones have acknowledged his influence in their lives, and top hip-hop artists ranging from RZA and Ghostface to Slim Thug and Three 6 Mafia have sampled his music. Consider this nothing less than required listening! [DH]

Sir Luscious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty
(Def Jam)
Of Outkast's two magnetic personalities, while Andre 3000 seems to get the most ink, I've always liked Antwan "Big Boi" Patton. Though I can count on A3 to keep it flamboyant and freaky, Big Boi's songs are the ones that have earned repeated listens throughout the years on my stereo. Always the straight man to A3's metrosexual outlook, BB is a true hip-hop fan's rapper -- never falling into a typical rhyme pattern, verbal versatility is one of his main strengths. Add to this, he's funny, charismatic, skillful and smart. Now with the ridiculously long-overdue release of his official debut solo album, Big Boi dusts off his shoulders and gets dirty, funky and more adventurous than many of us could have ever imagined.
Years in the making Sir Luscious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty finds BB constructing a sonic caravan of rubbery gangsta rap, syrupy southern R&B, gooey synth funk, a hint of dubstep, dirty south hydraulics and rich space age sounds, with lots of sharp brass, funky bass, beefy beats, and shimmering double time hi-hats. While any music fan with an internet connection may already be familiar with leaked tracks like "Shutterbugg," "Tangerine," 'Fo Yo Sorrows" and "Shine Blockas," there are a wealth of new songs that glow like iridescent pearls. Actually, Big Boi's songs are like 1000-count, purple satin sheets, and black light velvet paintings -- finely crafted and ghetto fabulous.
Like his half of Speakerboxxx/The Love Below, Big Boi keeps the vibe strong, the songs simultaneously loose and tight, the low end thick, and the fun overflowing as the album touches upon different hip-hop sub-genres with ease. Working with A-list producers like Organized Noise, Lil Jon, Salaam Remi, Scott Storch, DJ Cutmaster Swift, and Andre 3000, it's as if BB is absorbing musical trends into his own fold as opposed to trying to reinvent himself for a fleeting style. Add to this a great cross section of singers and rappers both young and old -- including George Clinton, Too Short, Janelle Monae, Joi, Gucci Mane, Jamie Foxx, Khujo Goodie, Sleepy Brown, B.O.B., and T.I. -- and you've got one of the best mainstream hip-hop albums I've heard this year. A solid outing that's guaranteed to be rocking a Casbah near you this summer [DG]

(Hippos in Tanks)
NYC duo Von Haze have released a debut six-song mini-album that varies from moody, hazy and druggy, to driving lo-fi synth rock, propelled by the drum machines, throbby bass and distorted guitar found in bands ranging from Bowery Electric to Moon Duo. But Von Haze approach their songs with a more decadent groove; whether driving or molasses-slow, the band lace Suicide synth and drums with the drawling haziness of bands like Brightblack Morning Light as well as the dopesick 'tude and male/female vocal duets of Royal Trux. (See the nodded-out "Get Me Alone" and the funeral organ dirge (meets Eno landscape) of "Looking Down," the ethereal "Outside the Night" or the dungeon doom of "Sooner or Later".) Guitar jams like "Sad Girls" and "Everyway" inject a bit more rock with a dirty dose of the Stooges. This one is LP and MP3 download only; vinyl is cut to 45 rpm for better sound, housed in a gatefold sleeve with a photo inner sleeve, and limited to 750 copies.

Milky Disco III: To the Stars
(Lo)
"I Feel Your Soul" Ghostape
"Closer Space" Telespazio
For a few years now, Lo Recordings' annual Milky Disco compilation series has been a reliable gauge on all things cosmic, arpeggiated, shiny, funky and slowburnin'. Each one is lovingly curated by the label's own Jon Tye, whose selection always features the crème de la crème of producers in the underground "nu-disco" scene. Not surprisingly, the third installment is another winner as all 12 tracks are stellar, but this time around there are also some fresh new sounds creeping into the mix: NYC-based Oneohtrix Point Never's slow-rising "Astral Project T.I.N.A." is a gorgeous Kevin Shields-esque ambient piece while the UK's Brassica offer up fantastic slo-mo electro-house with "Made Up My Mind," which features weary female lead vocals. Of course, familiar names like Black Devil Disco Club and In Flagranti make strong appearances too and there's also a bonus disc featuring a mix from Tye highlighting tracks from this edition as well as some additional exclusive cuts.

"Jeffrey Lee"
"Street Justice"
You are forgiven if you are a little bit apprehensive about a new A.R.E. Weapons album dropping in 2010 -- if you were a fan of this noisy, drug-fueled, Suicide-damaged NYC band back in their heyday around the turn of the millennium, you may well have "moved on" with your life, and perhaps hope to forget some of the hedonism and dark energy that the group personified. This was back before Brooklyn existed, when the Lower East Side was littered with heroin and whores, and the last vestiges of seediness still clung to the dark corners and clubs of downtown, full of intrigue and romance. You may have moved on, but your music doesn't have to, does it? The mayhem, the overdoses, and perhaps a touch of the glamour may have faded into their past, but A.R.E. Weapons are still making tough, edgy electro-punk, still heavily indebted to Alan Vega, but with a bit more depth now, adding in some of the Cramps' rock and twang and some of Nick Cave's uncomfortable grandeur. Despite their inclusion on the Electroclash comp back in the day, these guys were always more of a rock band than a dance act, and their current sound features more guitars -- even a pedal steel -- but it has lost none of the loose, lusty swagger of the band's youth. We all grow up, but it's nice to know that it doesn't have to kill the music. [JM]

Holy Hell
(Don Giovanni)
"Wrong Things"
"Brother"
Melissa Paternoster, the wailing guitar goddess at the front of New Jersey's Screaming Females, gives us her solo debut as Noun. Holy Hell relinquishes the pace of her parent band's fury a slight bit, offering up a varied, but no less powerful approach. Paternoster tempers her trademark guitar work with piano-led pop, folky bits reminiscent of Judy Henske's work (!), and big, '90s style alt-pop anthems like "So Rough" that get stuck in your teeth like Jolly Ranchers. A brief, but empowering look at an important new musician who continues to dole out surprises. What a voice, what a record! [DM]

Ali and Basti Schwarz continue to move away from their club-friendly electro, their first full-length in five years finding the German brothers back in touch with their house roots. Co-produced by Philipp Maier (a/k/a Santé), who is also now a proper member, the tracks on Chocolate are a nice balance between the dancefloor and the living room, the trio combining the influences of deep house, minimal, techno and jazz with help from friends like Cassy, Seth Troxler, Dave Aju and Daniel Wilde.

No Information About Detained Women's Rights Activist
Hundreds of Detainees in Similar Situation, Disappeared into Prisons
"Starred Student" was Blacklisted from Graduate Studies for her Peaceful Women's Rights Activism
Somayeh Rashidi
(21 January 2010) Iranian judicial and prison authorities have refused to release any information about charges against women's rights activist Somayeh Rashidi (24), who was arrested on 19 December 2009, the International Campaign for Human Rights in Iran reported today.
During the past two months, over a thousand people have been detained through the use of a blanket detention order, which is effectively a license for security and intelligence agents to arrest anyone at will. Hundreds of these detainees, similar to Somayeh Rashidi, have disappeared into Iranian prisons without any information available to their families or lawyers.
Based on two brief contacts Somayeh Rashidi has been able to make, it is known she is in solitary confinement in Evin prison. The Campaign calls upon the Iranian Judiciary to divulge the charges against Rashidi and the evidence upon which they are based, and to release her immediately pending an independent investigation of her case.
Prior to her arrest, authorities stormed her house on 14 December 2009 at 6:00 a.m., searched the premises, and confiscated several personal items belonging to her and her roommate, including computers and hand-written notes. At the time, she was served a summons to attend Branch 12 of the Revolutionary Court on 19 December 2009. Upon appearing at the court, she was interrogated and read her charges, arrested, and detained. Over the past few days, her temporary detention orders have been extended and she continues to remain in solitary confinement.
Somayeh Rashidi, who comes from a traditional and religious family, has been active in peaceful women's rights work in NGOs and also at universities, for which she has been persecuted by authorities.
She is a member of the One Million Signatures for Equality Campaign and has been active in the Campaign's Education Committee. Most of her activities were concentrated on domestic violence. She had started a student organization, the Iranian Women's Language Society, around this topic and was providing training in this area. The organization's license was later revoked.
Right to Education Denied to "Starred Students"
Rashidi lost her job at a research institute because of her social activism, and was also a "Starred Student," barred from graduate studies despite her top academic performance. She studied Sociology in college and passed the nationwide university entrance exam with high scores in Women's Studies and Cultural Studies last year.
Although Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad flatly denied the existence of "Starred Students" during the 2009 presidential election debates, the phenomenon has affected Iranian students since his first election in 2004. Undergraduate students who engaged in political, cultural or social activities in colleges, notwithstanding their high grades, had to be "selected" by the Ministry of Information. None of the "Starred Students" were able to attend their classes, even after they attended the selection sessions and signed written promises demanded by intelligence authorities. Rashidi had ranked fourth in Women's Studies and twenty-ninth in Cultural Studies in entrance exams. During the months after she became a "Starred Student," she tried all legal avenues to follow up on her case, including meeting with members of parliament. She had meetings with Ministry of Science and Technology authorities as well, but none of these meetings changed her situation.
Other "Starred Students" tried to alleviate their difficulties through establishing the Committee to Defend the Right to Education. Some of those individuals are now in prison, facing unfounded charges. Some of these charges include "relations with Islamic Republic of Iran opposition groups such as the Mujahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO)," which have been denied by the defendants and their friends and families.
Several "Starred Students" have told the International Campaign for Human Rights in Iran over the past few weeks that their political activities were all within Iranian law, but those activities have resulted in their being blacklisted and denied their right to education. Officials refrain from acknowledging these charges.
"Starred Students" recently convicted include Zia Al-din Nabavi, sentenced to 15 years imprisonment and 74 lashes, and Majid Darri, sentenced to 10 years imprisonment. Other members of the Committee to Defend the Right to Education currently in detention are: Soroosh Sabet, Mahdiyeh Golroo, Shiva Nazarahari, and Peyman Aref.
Persecution of Women's Rights Activists
Numerous women's rights activists have been targeted for persecution and arrest in the context of the ongoing political turmoil in the Islamic Republic. At this time, women's rights activists Mansoureh Shojaie, Mahin Fahimi, Shiva Nazarahari, Parisa Kakaie, Zohre Tonkaboni, Alieh Eghdamdoust, Bahareh Hedayat, Mahdiyeh Golroo, Shabnam Madadzadeh, and Maryam Zia are all in prison. Journalists Badrossadat Mofidi and Mahsa Hekmat, and political activists Azar Mansouri, Atefeh Nabavi, Shabnam Maddadzad, and Niloufar Hashemi Azar also remain in detention.

Q: MySQL INSERT INTO... SELECT multiple values from destination table and using it as part of the insert into the same destination table This SO post is a follow up question to my SO post. I created a new post since the original question was answered and did not want to distract from answer. In experimenting with the previous solution, it got me thinking and thus this SO question was born.
Reference: DB Fiddle where I'm performing an INSERT INTO with Select in MySQL. In playing around with the data, is it possible to grab some data from the destination table matching a PK field (coreID = :org_coreID) and then combining that with a select statement to perform an INSERT INTO with Select using a :new_coreID?
I know this SQL is invalid but I'm hoping the statement below will help explain the data columns I need to insert into the steps table.
INSERT INTO steps(coreid, wolid, venueID,aid, tcount, rCount, pMax, groupID)
SELECT
    a.coreID,
    IFNULL(s.woLID, 0) as woLID,
    s.venueID,
    a.aID,
    (select tCount, rCount, pMax, groupID from steps where coreID = :orig_coreID)
FROM
    activity a Left Join
    step s On s.aID = a.aID
WHERE
    a.coreID = :new_coreID;

Is something like this possible?

Due to the severe and harsh punishments that are handed out to DUI offenders charged with impaired driving in Compton, it is always advisable to contact an experienced and reliable DUI Lawyer.
Recently, there has been an increase in drunk driving convictions in Compton courts. This has resulted in drunk driving becoming one of the largest single offenses in California. Drinking and driving cases are more likely to be brought to trial than any other criminal offense. The reason for this is that, at trial, these cases are often contested on highly technical grounds based mainly on police violations of the federal Constitution, cited in the defense of those accused.
We have many years of experience in successfully defending our clients facing drunk driving charges, as one of the most reputed and experienced drunk driving lawyers in Compton.

The DUI offenses attract a lot of severe penalties and punishments that can be life altering and the drivers can face criminal penalties in court as well as an administrative driver's license suspension. It is important to understand what impaired driving includes and what type of conduct is considered a violation of California's DUI laws.
When defending our clients in Compton, through cross-examination of prosecution witnesses and presentation of other evidence, we try to establish that the taking of the breath samples may have violated the Constitutional rights of the accused.
A demand can be made for additional physical coordination tests to check for sobriety when a Compton police officer is in doubt as to whether a person has consumed alcohol or drugs and that he or she has been in control of a vehicle in the past three hours. Further demands can be made by the officer based on these tests, such as the demand for the use of more approved instruments to test blood in attempting to validate the drunk driving.
Use of approved screening instruments is crucial for testing whenever one is accused of driving while drunk while in Compton, California in order to determine whether BAC is over the limit or not. These approved screening devices are calibrated in a way that they display fail if the BAC is above the prescribed limit, caution if between 0.05 and 0.1 percent, and a numerical value if the BAC is below 0.5%. When a lawful demand is made for such a test by an officer, turning it down is also a criminal offense by the driver, unless and until there is a reasonable excuse to do so.

The drugs may be either illegal, prescription or over-the-counter, taken with a doctor's order.

The criminal laws in California consist of two distinct but closely related offenses under the criminal code. The first offense is impaired driving which bars a person from driving or caring or controlling a vehicle while their abilities to do so are prejudiced by the influence of drugs or alcohol. Impaired driving is covered under Section 253(1) (a). The second offense is over 80 DUI which lays down the same stipulation but relates to a situation where the blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of the person driving or in control of a vehicle is over 80mg per 100ml of blood. Over 80 DUI is covered under Section 253(1) (b) of the Criminal Code. In addition to these offenses, there are also other DUI-related offenses in Compton, such as failure to provide a breath sample.
It is imperative that you contact a DUI defense lawyer immediately if you are facing driving over 80 DUI charges. We at Compton DUI lawyer always strive to build the best defense possible to DUI charges. Through our zealous advocacy, we have shown consistently favorable results in defending our clients in these cases through detailed investigations and vigorous cross-examination of prosecution witnesses. Call us now for more information and a free consultation.
One of the most litigated criminal charges in Compton, California is the over 80 charge. Because establishing proof of the offense rests heavily on the observations of the investigating officer as well as eyewitnesses, we focus on these issues at trial. Additionally, there is a very specific procedure that must be followed by the prosecution in proving the over 80 DUI. During this procedure, a Drug Recognition Expert takes breath and blood samples according to strict guidelines. The resulting blood alcohol content (BAC) reading is then used as evidence during the trial. These are all issues that we litigate during trial, and are experienced in dealing with.
What Is The Over 80 Charge Criminal Code in Compton, California?
The laws concerning the driving over 80 DUI are focused on the element of the amount of alcohol in your blood which is somewhat challenging as there is absolutely no way that a correct blood sample can be provided. The blood samples are collected usually at the police station and not at the site of offense. It is therefore quite difficult to come to a conclusion that the BAC was above the prescribed limit. At Compton DUI Lawyer we focus on this aspect while defending our clients.
An Over 80 DUI charge in Compton primarily relies on the fact that the prosecutors have to prove their case by providing enough evidence in court regarding the amount of alcohol in your blood while the vehicle was being operated by you. The prosecutors will show to the court your blood alcohol concentration by relying upon presumption of identity vide which the judge can conclude that your blood alcohol is accurate as measured at the station provided that all the preconditions are met with. There are a number of potential defenses that can be taken by your lawyer who can challenge the preconditions required for presumtion of identity.
While the over 80 charge criminal code is very clear regarding the offenses and punishment, our experienced Compton DUI attorneys build strong defenses against these cases. We do so primarily based on inconsistencies with evidence as well as cross-examination of prosecution witnesses. Our team of investigators often visits the site of the incident to get a first-hand report of what really happened. This helps us to present a good defense for your case. Call us today, and we will be more than willing to discuss your case. Our attorneys are skilled enough to prove that there are flaws in the prosecution's case and thereby protect you from the consequences of the charges. We are here to fight for you.
The laws concerning DUI offenses in Compton come with severe punishments that DUI offenders in Compton have to face if charged with impaired driving. In such cases, it is always advisable to contact an experienced and reliable DUI Lawyer.

The law in California is straightforward when it comes to teen drinking and driving offenses. California takes a strict stance when it comes to underage DUI and as per the law there is a zero tolerance policy in Compton to such crimes. The Zero Tolerance Policy states that a driver below the age of 21 shall have no amount of alcohol in their body and if there is any amount of alcohol content then the driver shall be charged with a misdemeanor crime. Since teenagers are inexperienced drivers, they put their own lives as well as the lives of others in grave danger while driving under the influence of alcohol.

Just How Serious of a Crime is an Underage DUI in Compton?
A DUI charge is considered a serious offense throughout the entire country and is dealt with in the strictest ways in Compton and elsewhere in California. In the case of an underage DUI, things can get even worse because there is a zero tolerance policy. The Law in California enforces a zero tolerance policy when it comes to underage drinking and driving and as per the California Vehicle Code 23136, this means you can face penalties for driving with any detectable amount of alcohol in your system (.01% or above). In some cases, such as a false DUI arrest, we will have to prove that the evidence against you is invalid.

The punishments and consequences of an underage drinking and driving conviction are severe. However, underage drivers still have rights, just like adults. The prosecutor has to show and prove to the court all of the elements of the charges, which include that the minor was driving and that the stop was for a rightful reason. Because of the life-altering consequences and penalties that a DUI offense has on a minor, it is always a good idea to fight a DUI in court.

Tallulah Bankhead, the famous actress lived here in 1926 when she was twenty three. She once confessed to being "as pure as the driven slush" and when being told that Shirley Temple had been photographed through gauze, she replied "Then they ought to photograph me through linoleum".
Whilst living here she liked to apply hairdressing gold dust to her pubic hair, open the door and flash at anyone who passed by.

Q: Why do timeline review events sometimes show the number of reviews of each type and sometimes don't? When looking at the timelines of several different questions, I've noticed something strange: on some sites, timeline review events show the number of reviews of each type completed in that review task, and on other sites they don't.
It's probably better explained through screenshots. Sometimes it looks like this:

and sometimes it looks like this:

I recently passed the 500 reputation mark over on Arqade, and timeline review events now look like the second screenshot rather than the first, so it seems to be correlated with the Access Review Queues privilege.
What's the purpose behind this? Why don't timelines ever have pictures of waffles?

A: The lack of waffles in timelines is their only flaw; I am convinced that Jarrod left waffles out intentionally, as an offering to the gods lest the perfection of his work mock them and call down their wrath upon us all.
If you don't have access to review queues on a site, you won't see the outcome of reviews in the timeline. So you get to see how a review was resolved on Arqade now, but won't on sites where you haven't yet earned this privilege. This avoids a potentially expensive query in cases where the reader couldn't reasonably be expected to do much with the information.
