Uplift Spice

Well a buddy of mine who wishes to remain anon sent me these today, just as I was thinking, "Gosh, it's certainly been a bit of a while since I've posted any Japanese-language, alternative grunge from the mid-2000's with song titles in Japanese fonts that I have no way to even copy, much less translate "......and lo and behold, Uplift Spice, 5 albums yet...... he told me to listen to em, I listened to enough to get the idea..... .it's decent hard rock, you can hear a little Asian twinge in there. The vocals are decidedly Japanese, not psuedo-English like a lot of bands (the Mops, or Loudness at times) have tried.... a little research determines the lineup to be guitarist Yookey, vocalist Chiori, drummer Tovita, and bassist Kenji.

OK, when I have posted Greek punk stuff before, by man Apantabapanta has translated and researched the material, I have no Japanese "go-to-guy", so, here's the skinny......if I'm able to copy/paste the Japanese characters, I will, and if I can find some sort of translation in standard alphabet, I'll put them, even if (when, really)I have no idea what they mean....if in my course of researching these I can find any title or lyric or anything else translations to English, I will drop them on ya also.

Please take a chance on these. It's only rock n roll, and as you know I personally go out of my way to find stuff like this, and it gives me great joy to be able to share them with you.....if you by nay chance read Japanese, feel free to jump in and assist, and, these guys have a few more albums not included here, so if ya happen to have em, well, what are you waiting for?

Not for everyone, to be certain, but will you ever accuse me of lacking in variety? You might, but I do try, and I'd love to hear what everyone thinks of these, even if they only sample a bit...that's the wonderful thing about this internet information age, we actually CAN hear stuff like this, unknown gems from other lands, and without it costing us an arm and a leg (I remember paying well over 20 bucks for a vinyl copy of a Sadistic Mika band album back in thet 1970's some time, a small fortune relative to the time......still have it and am thrilled that i DID buy it, it was thrilling to stumble on stuff back then, and it's thrilling today.....only today, we have the ability to share, and isn't that the way you were brought up, that sharing was the RIGHT way?

SYATEKI-01 射的 (Shateki)/02 雨ざらし (Amkazarashi)/03 M31/04 絵の具 (Enogu)/05 青空が滲んだ日 (Aozora ga nijin da hi) (this is an EP with a release date of 2006 I THINK the album title translates to "Target Practice", but don't hold me to it) (Late edit: found English translations of the titles-01 Target Practice/02 Weather Beaten/03 M31/04 Paint/05 Blue Sky Is Blurred Day)

I have spot-listened to all of these, and I must say, I think they are quite good, what I've heard at least, unique to say the very least........I'd like you to try these out, maybe not all of em, but give one or two of them a spin for a possible pleasant surprise. As I said before, they have some albums of more recent vintage, and I would really enjoy hearing them if anyone can help out with that!

A Bunch of Links from Andie James and others you may have missed

Often, generous readers, contributors add links in the comments section, additional or related things that I myself can't provide...... in general, I haven't called enough attention to these, I am not going to do that anymore, it may cause you to miss out on something you'd really like (who the hell goes back and reads the comments more than once..... in the future I will bring ALL contributed links to the front page in order to better fulfill my mission, which of course is TO SHARE as much stuff as possible.....

What caused me to think about this was that Andie James, a longtime friend and contributor (who I once thought was a chick, right Andie?) has contributed a LOT of cool stuff the last week or two, and I want to make sure that if they are for you, you don't miss them.......I'll add his comments in full so you can get his opinion of what he is sharing, thanks again to everyone who shares stuff, I am always looking to improve things around here and I think moving all contributed links to the front page will be an improvement, sorry for not thinking of it earlier, I am old.

------------------------------------------------

And also from "No Future":

Blitz's second album Second Empire Justice is a long way away from their opening salvo of Oi! Punk. This is a distinct change of course into the realms of New Wave/SynthPop with Post Punk most definitely in the Post. Recorded at Stockport's iconic Strawberry Studios with in-house engineer Chris Nagle assuming production duties (Nagle cut his teeth working alongside Martin Hannett - see Joy Division Unknown Pleasures). Given the factoryesque sleeve design, any assumptions that Blitz wanted a particular Mancunian aura to the album are just that. When you listen to the record, you may likely assume the same. Nagle's production style certainly echoes that of his mentor as Second Empire Justice is much cleaner sounding with layered atmospherics adding depth, but still with a good few delayed snares thrown in for good measure. You will notice (and probably love) how robust the bass guitar is in the mix - just imagine a cross between JJ Burnel and Peter Hook cranked up really loud. Tracks like Underground, White Man and Skin are bass hungry monsters, Acolyte and Flowers & Fire lean more to new-wave. Into The Daylight and Telecommunication delve into classic eighties goth-synth territory. Readers will not be surprised to know that Blitz's original Oi! Punk following hated it.

Ripped from a vinyl album released on Future Records (FL 1) in 1983 to high quality lossless flac audio.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Andie James also loaded on a BUNCH of Psychedelic Furs stuff:


On Love Spit Love's eponymous debut, Richard Butler tried too hard to break from the legacy of the Psychedelic Furs, and the result was a stiff, awkward record that only ccasionally hit its target. For Love Spit Love's second album, Trysome Eatone, Butler decided to rely on the darkly seductive blend of arty post-punk and glam-rock that was the Furs' trademark. It's partially nostalgia, but he was able to update the Furs sound with a sharp, clever production and the occasional electronic or alternative flourish. It evokes the '80s without slavishly recreating the sound, but Trysome Eatone manages to be more than a guilty pleasure for longtime Furs fans because of Butler's solid craftmanship. Many of the album's songs are well-written and memorable, resulting in a record that represents a return to form for one of the early '80s' most distinctive artists.

“Pretty In Pink” originally released in 1981 as a single from the band’s second album, Talk Talk Talk. The song inspired the 1986 film of the same name and a re-recorded version of the song was included on the film’s soundtrack.

Allmusic writer Bill Janovitz credits 1981 producer Steve Lillywhite for finding “the ideal sound for the band, with a perfect blend of classic pop, punk, and art rock elements”. Janovitz called it “the definitive take” of the song.

The 1986 version Janovitz described this version as “ho-hum, streamlined, (and) radio-ready”.

The Not So Lucky Country

I'm just having some fun tonight, putting up this and that as I do sometimes (everything doesn't have to
be an all week thing like the Janis Joplin thing was, that was almost like WORK!)...I already posted some VERY recent female-fronted riff-rock (Black State Highway) and some pretty much unknown 1980's new wave semi-greatness (Forever 19), now why not some Australian punk/thrash/hardcore from a bunch of obscure down-under bands......trust me (I say once again), it's pretty damn good, if you're a fan of obscure punk......there is some goddamn fine hardcore punk shit on here, ca. late 1980's, in fact two discs worth......so, PLEASE download and then tell me what ya think of the very cool Where's The Pope, Ardvarks Afterbirth, Aligator Parade, Slub, Psychotic Maniacs, and TONS more......comps like this are a reason for living, please join me and enjoy some thrashing ramalama punk rock from down under, you will not be sorry, I am gonna guarentee this for ya!!

Forever 19

Another of those obscuro 1980's new wave bands, this one is really worth your time, kind of reminiscent of the Cars/Roxy Music, this album "Come as You Were Born" is a nearly criminally overlooked epic from 1985, it's almost impossible to find any info on the band (I've tried), but whatever, even though I can't find a list of their personnel, or even where they originated from, this is a likable enough album for me to share with my friends tonight........I've been awfully hard on 1980's music in this forum before, but there ARE, to be fair, a bunch of unknown/overlooked gems such as this one from that era, which I've tried to demonstrate.......this is a good album, the singer has a VERY odd voice, which made 1980's new wave what it was, I guess, and as I said, they have likely heard a few Cars/Roxy music albums in their time.......trust me, is all I can say, this is a pretty good one, you
will likely not be disappointed, in particular if you are a fan of 1980's new wave, this is a GOOD one....


COME AS YOU WERE BORN-01 Wings Of Decay/02 In Your Eyes/03 See Me Now/04 The Hero/05 Watch the Skies/06 Questions/07 Beside You/08 Place In Your Heart/09 Pictures/10 Sleep

The Monkees Greatest Hits

Oh, shut up......although they are not to be taken seriously, of course, this music is still quite listenable
some 40 years later, they were "product" of course, but the joke was actually on us....they occasionaly got some quite good material, and these were some of the better mid-rocking singles of the mid 1960's......obviously this is not to be taken seriously, but who the hell takes the music we listen to seriously anyway?......Hell, there's some decent shit on here, "Stepping Stone", "Pleasnat Valley Sunday", and the trippy "Porpoise Song"......hey, download it if ya want, or don't, makes me no diff, I am going to bed anyway........as I've said many times, all about the variety, NWA one day and the Monkees the next? Hey, at least I TRY, right?

Reggae greatness compliments of Cliff from the UK

As he had promised, Cliff from the UK has provided us with some awesome reggae stuff, as I have said, I am not an expert, far from it, but, I do love the stuff...... here is his latest contribution, and let us all give him proper thanks so he gives us A LOT more, this stuff is awesome and this guy knows what he is talking about, I respect his tastes and if you are even moderately interested in reggae, PLEASE check Cliff's submissions, I have a feeling that this could become a FANTASTIC semi-regular feature, ala the "Greek Punk" posts or any of the other fantastic guest posts that are always welcome here!

--------------------------------------

Well it is time for some more reggae on Big Scott’s blog; here’s hoping my choices for this post are acceptable to one and all.

First up is Black Uhuru’s breakthrough album of 1980 Sinsemella. This was their first album to have what is considered their classic line up of Michael Rose, Puma Jones and Duckie Simpson. For me Black Uhuru never got any better than this; though the albums Red and Chill Out pushed it close. Black Uhuru had a distictive sound of an electro-funk reggae style and were backed by the legendary Robbie Shakespeare and Sly Dunbar, who also produced the album. They established an edgy sound blending traditional roots with modern digital effects, echoing dub trickery, and early dancehall vocals. The stand out tracks being the title track and Vampire, but there is no real filler track on the album.

1.    Happiness 2. World Is Africa 3. Push Push 4. There Is Fire 5. No Loafing (Sit and Wonder) 6. Sinsemilla 7. Endurance 8. Vampire
Black Uhuru – Sinsemilla - http://www83.zippyshare.com/v/gfZAJpt7/file.html

Next up is the Wailing Souls’  Wild Suspense. Released in 1979 this album contained some of the heaviest roots of the Wailing Souls career. Wailing Souls have been a group who have never received the acclaim that they deserved however this album is the high water mark of their career and an album that should be in everybody’s record collection in my humble opinion. If you like reggae with sublime harmonies then this is for you. Stand out tracks are Bredda  Gravalicious, Wild Suspense and the gorgeous Very Well. This cd version of the album contains ten bonus dub tracks. They may not add anything special to it but they don’t take anything of the majesty of this album as a whole away either.
01 - Row Fisherman 02 - Slow Coach 03 - We Got To Be Together 04 - Feel The Spirit 05 - Bredda Gravalicious 06 - Wild Suspense 07 - They Never Know 08 - Black Rose 09 - Something Funny 10 - Very Well 11 - Walk But Mind You Don't Fall Dub 12 - Row Fisherman Dub 13 - Bredda Gravalicious Dub 14 - Slow Coach Dub 15 - Something Funny Dub 16 - We've Got To Be Together Dub 17 - Very Well Dub

Johnny Clarke was recognised as one of the best vocalists in Jamaica but for some reason he did not gain the acclaim internationally like his peers Dennis Brown and Gregory Isaaacs. Dreader Dread 76-78 is as the title says a collection of tracks recorded between 1976 and 1978. It shows Clarke at his absolute best setting his sweet crooning voice against grinding bass lines and hi hat cymbal rhythms that cut through you like a sword; all produced by Bunny Lee. When you see the name Bunny Lee on a label you know you are in for a delight. Clarke was equally adept at singing love songs and songs of a “conscious” subject matter. Fire & Brimstone A Go Burn The Wicked, with its deep and slow engaging Roots, is a great gem from Clarke but for me the real stand out track is Roots Natty. Do yourself a favour take the phone off the hook, pull up a chair, light one up and sink into this.
