a.c.m.e,-radiolab #43 - "Landsleute raus ..." #kakanien #kärnten #landesverfassung #jungekärntner

..aus der Verassung. Ban, bäng, Benger!

Wir sind ja gar nich live. Deshhalb reden wir heute über einen Disput den die Landsleute gestern (ja eh) schon wieder beigelegt haben. Ja eh, bekennt sich Kärnten also doch zu Vielfalt und zur Fürsorge für alle Landsleute gleichermaßen (auch jenen aus Vorarlberg zugewanderten) Was für ein Bekenntnis! Was für ein Land!

Sollte der Politik immer noch danach…

Desert Spoon Blues - A Life, A Song, A Cigarette

A while ago we were invited to A Life, A Song, A Cigarette’s new studio that they built after the previous owner got busted for using the workshop as a weed plantation to listed to their new album Tideland. Because music journalists are nothing if not easily bought and everybody knows it, there was a big buffet of schnitzel and heurigenschmankerl.

Tideland saw its release yesterday but you can also listen to the whole album on Soundcloud and/or read the jumbled thoughts I had about it a couple of weeks ago:

As someone who has always found ALASAC to be a bit too bland, I was very glad to hear that they’ve taken a faster, a bit more aggressive approach onTideland, especially in the first half of the album where some of the guitar parts reminded me of Hope Of The States, a band I previously would’ve never had associated with ALASAC. With a bit of fantasy you can even turn “Ginger” into an indie version of a Ricky Martin song. Okay, a lot of fantasy. There is still enough of that white boy indie-folk charm, so don’t worry.

A Life, A Song, A Cigarette: Easy. From the new ALASAC album Tideland (out October 2012 via Siluh)

Oh hey, yet another band shooting a music video in the woods! 

Great, now I want to have a Taschenlampen/Lagerfeuerweedparty too. 

No violence for me though, thank you.
