Naked City













Naked City was an avant-garde music group led by saxophonist and composer John Zorn. Active primarily in New York City in the late 1980s and early 1990s, Naked City was initiated by Zorn as a "composition workshop" to test the limits of composition (and improvisation) in a traditional rock band lineup. Its music incorporated recognizable elements of jazz, grindcore, surf music, classical music, heavy metal, country music, punk rock and literally dozens of other music genres.
In Naked City's characteristic early style, songs were often performed at astonishingly fast tempi (drawing heavily on thrash metal and hardcore punk's emphasis on extreme speed). Many songs were quite brief, and typically switched musical genres every few measures, perhaps comparable to spinning a radio dial at random and hearing the same band performing on every station...

Naked City













Naked City was an avant-garde music group from New York City, New York, United States led by saxophonist and composer John Zorn, performed from 1988 to 1993. The ensemble was notable for remaining unconfined to any musical category, juxtaposing unrelated styles of music often within individual compositions at breakneck speed. Its music incorporated recognizable elements of jazz, grindcore, surf, classical, thrash, country music, punk rock and other genres. Carl Stalling has been cited as an influence on Zorn and the work of Naked City.

Mogwai













Mogwai are a band from Glasgow formed in 1995. They compose lengthy, mostly instrumental guitar-based pieces in the style of post-rock, usually focused around the elaboration of a single theme, and are known traditionally for their quiet/loud dynamic, defined bass riffs, and an eminent ambient sound, sometimes dark and sometimes grand. Although frequently referred to as post-rock, the band have revealed in interviews that they despise this categorization, insisting that their sound bears little resemblance to pioneers of the genre, such as Tortoise.

CORMAC McCARTHY
PUT - THE ROAD


















Otac i sin kroz spaljenu Ameriku koračaju prema obali. U opustošenom predelu ništa se ne pomera sem pepela na vetru. Nemaju ništa osim jednog pištolja kojim se brane od ljudi duž puta, odeće na sebi, kolica nađene hrane – i jedan drugog.
Uprkos svemu, "Put" je roman o nežnosti. Zastrašujuć i lep. Govori o nama, o onom najlepšem i najgorem u ljudskom biću.
The Road follows an unnamed father and son journeying together across a grim post-apocalyptic landscape, some years after a great, unexplained cataclysm has destroyed most civilization and most life on Earth. Realizing that they will not survive another winter in their unspecified original location, the father leads the boy south, through a desolate American landscape along a vacant highway, towards the sea, sustained only by the vague hope of finding warmth and more "good guys" like them, and carrying with them only what is on their backs and what will fit into a damaged supermarket cart.

The Gerogerigegege















The Gerogerigegege is a music project created in 1985 in Shinjuku, Tokyo by Juntaro Yamanouchi, who runs and maintains the Vis A Vis record label in Japan. The name of the group combines the Japanese words for “vomit” (gero) and “diarrhoea” (geri) with what is supposedly the sound of these actions occurring simultaneously (gegege). (It has also been transliterated to mean “barf, diarrhoea, ha ha ha,” although “ge” is also variously an onomatopoetic word of disgust or exasperation, making the name open to several differing interpretations.) To describe the group, Yamanouchi has used the term “Japanese Ultra Shit Band.”

Pram












Pram are a band formed in Birmingham, England in 1990.
The band originally consisted of Rosie Cuckston and Sam Owen, and their first album “Gash” was self-released and sold by mail order and at gigs. The band attracted the attention of Too Pure Records (already home to Stereolab, Mouse on Mars and PJ Harvey), and between 1993 and 1995 the label released several increasingly sophisticated albums and EPs. Early recordings were a krautrock-influenced blend of rhythmic guitar, keyboards and percussion, with Cuckston’s eerie vocals and lyrics dealing with depression, loneliness and the dark side of childhood.

BUGARSKA BARAKA
MILISAV SAVIĆ










Milisav Savić, autor tri romana i tri zbirke pripovedaka, pisac studije o ustaničkoj prozi Vuka Karadžića, dobitnik Andrićeve nagrade za knjigu „Ujak naše varoši", započeo je da objavljuje prozu u šezdesetosmaškom „Studentu", u kojem je bio član redakcije zadužen za „crne" reportaže. Časopis „Vidici" mu 1969. objavljuje prvu knjigu pripovedaka „Bugarska baraka", na koju oštro reaguju Savićevi zemljaci, Raščani, smatrajući da je ona tipičan primer „crne proze", u kojoj se „zlonamerno prikazuje naša stvarnost". Posle dvadeset godina „Bugarska baraka" ove jeseni ponovo izlazi u „Radovoj" ediciji „Reč i misao". Danas se Saviću priče iz „Bugarske barake" čine kao bajke, iako su „prljavo idealističke do nepodnošljivosti"

Milisav Savic (b. 1945, Serbia) is the author of four books, short stories, and six novels. He has also been the editor and translator of several anthologies of foreign literature into Serbian (American, Australian, and Italian). He has taught Serbo-Croatian at London University, SUNY (Albany), and the University of Florence.

Influenced by Sonic Youth, Velvet Underground, Suicide, Glenn Branca, The Stooges, and Joy Division, Carsick Cars gigs are riotous explosions of pent-up energy and frustration.

Puscifer is an experimental project by Maynard James Keenan (Tool/A Perfect Circle). Unlike in his other projects, he experiments with a lot different sounds and ideas that partly barely have anything to do with “rock” at all. Puscifer is “as much a clothing line as it is a band”, and Maynard James Keenan has described it as “Simply a playground for the various voices in my head, it’s a space with no clear or discernible goals. It’s where my Id, Ego, and Anima all come together to exchange cookie recipes.”
