ROD, RACHEL, RIO, MAGGIE

Rudolf Dethu December 18, 2020

Rod Stewart married New Zealand model Rachel Hunter in Beverly Hills, this week in 1990. After the wedding Stewart was quoted as saying “I Found the Girl that I Want, I won’t be putting my banana in anybody’s fruit bowl from now on.” They split in 1999. Four years later, still in December, Stewart played in front of 3.5 million people on Copacabana beach in Rio De Janeiro, and made into the Guinness Book of World Records for staging the largest free rock concert attendance in history.

RYAN ADAMS – SYLVIA PLATH

Rudolf Dethu December 14, 2020

One of rock’s most talented songwriters, Ryan Adams, shows his weird and wonderful sensitivity through “Sylvia Plath”. This piano-driven, hauntingly beautiful yet charming and tender tribute to the great poet, it truly makes you think as if between Ryan Adams and Sylvia Plath, they knew each other quite well, especially their obsession with death.

RYAN ADAMS – COME PICK ME UP

Rudolf Dethu December 10, 2020

A wonderful love/hate/weak/drunk/wishful moment composition. One of my most fave songs within the melancholy section. Ryan Adam’s amazing.

MACTITUDE: GO YOUR OWN WAY

Rudolf Dethu December 5, 2020

A breakup song and record with a happy ending: it has sold over 45 million copies worldwide, making it one of the best-selling albums of all time.

MACTITUDE: LANIE GARDNER – DREAMS

Rudolf Dethu December 1, 2020

The members of Fleetwood Mac were experiencing emotional upheavals while recording “Dreams”. Mick Fleetwood was going through a divorce. Christine McVie was separating from her husband John McVie. Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks were ending their eight-year relationship; Stevie Nicks and Mick Fleetwood had just started an affair. What made it more complicated and worse was that all the band members were so addicted to cocaine during the production of the album, Rumours. Hard drugs, bad romances, excellent album.

MACTITUDE: ORLA GARTLAND – EVERYWHERE

Rudolf Dethu November 30, 2020

Song that can help you facing the Monday blues. And maybe we can learn a thing or two from Orla Gartland: she covers Mac’s famous melancholy song, “Everywhere”, with positive vibes—smiling and looked happy.

MODJORIDO: REVOLT IN PARADISE

Rudolf Dethu November 29, 2020

Grup cadas MODJORIDO baru saja merilis single perdana di bawah Pohon Tua Creatorium bertajuk “Revolt”. Single ini, menurut sang biduan Rico Mahesi, bisa dimaknai sebagai evolusi, pertanda kebangkitan, kembali menggairahkan musik rock, juga, selayaknya spirit musik rock yang dekat dengan pemberontakan.

MANJA: GAMES WE PLAY

Rudolf Dethu November 28, 2020

Seolah ogah kehilangan momentum, Manja kembali menyentak lewat komposisi “Games We Play” Setelah sebelumnya meluncurkan single pertama “Rise” belum lama ini dan disambut amat baik oleh publik.

BANANACH: VIRGIN FUCKBOI

Rudolf Dethu November 13, 2020

Not exactly sexy, it’s not funny and they’re not going to be rolling around in mud like the Slits; but it’s the closest thing to art that “post-punk”… has offered in a while.

RILO KILEY – I REMEMBER YOU

Rudolf Dethu November 7, 2020

A beautiful, melancholy Fleetwood Mac-esque indie rock. One of my most favourites of Rilo Kiley’s composition.

THE WONDERFUL MS MERCHANT

Rudolf Dethu October 26, 2020

One of my biggest 90s crushes turned 57 today. Happy birthday and stay wonderful, Natalie Merchant!

THIS MUST BE THE PLACE

Rudolf Dethu October 13, 2020

I have a forever soft spot for this song. I immediately get little tears in my eyes, get goosebumps each and every time.

YOUNG PUNKS & GLUE SNIFFERS IN THE 80S IN THE SOCI $YOUNG PUNKS & GLUE SNIFFERS IN THE 80S IN THE SOCIALIST HUNGARY To be punk in early 1980s Hungary was more than just a fashion statement. Looking stylish as hell never hurts though, especially when your enemy is omnipotent state control. In those years, Eastern Bloc countries were thirsty for the fractured, rage-ridden themes of English and American bands like the Sex Pistols and Dead Kennedys. In those foreign screams, young Hungarians understood an echo of their own frustrations, and a dark reassurance that even life in the democratic West was as despondent as the situation at home. And in a political climate where having fun and playing music with your friends can earn you a jail sentence, innocuous activities quickly become subversive statements. Prolific photojournalist Tamás Urbán was in his mid 30s when he started documenting the punk scene in Budapest, but he was no newcomer to the underground. A staffer at Ifjúsági Magazin (Youth Magazine) since 1969, Urbán was the rare press photographer at the time who wasn’t restricted from covering some of the darker corners of Hungary’s so-called socialist utopia. From glue sniffers and juvenile prisons to crime scenes and the fall of the Berlin Wall, Urbán’s work was a clear critique of the socialist system. Not that everything he shot was published—most of these pictures weren’t seen until the 1990s. At the time, anti-establishment punks were facing serious harassment by police. In 1982, the members of punk band CPg were tried and convicted of “political agitation” for their openly anti-communist lyrics and famously violent performances—seen as an assault on state authority. Most of the band served two years in jail for the offense. Urbán’s photos expose his comfort with young people at the periphery of society. In underground clubs like the Black Hole, among nationalist skinheads or new wave party kids, his perspective is as consistent as it is empathetic. _________ Text: Timeline. #PunksInHungary80s #HistoryIsCool$
