When Max Roach released his 1968 album, Members, Don’t Git Weary, the broader Black political movement in America was undergoing a transformation. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965 were recent enough for Black Americans to understand the nation’s possibility for change, yet the routine violence didn’t diminish, clouding the wave of optimism with grief and disillusionment. Martin Luther King Jr., the face of the movement, was assassinated before seeing his strides come to fruition, and over 100 cities became battlegrounds for racially fuelled faceoffs between apoplectic Black communities and overeager troops. Members Don’t…
Mac DeMarco answers from Warsaw (“Yes, I'd say it's hot”) and it's exactly as you imagine. Relaxed, ironic, no longer interested in building a mythology around himself. Those who have followed him since the beginning know that something has changed. In recent years he has distanced himself from the rhythms of the music business, released increasingly free records and completely rethought his approach to concerts. On the eve of his return to Italy – Saturday 27 June in Bologna, Sunday 28 in Rome and Tuesday 30 in Milan – we talked about his latest work, Guitarnostalgia, social networks and what…
One day in October he left his home in Hendersonville, Tennessee, and drove east for about an hour. He parked his old Jeep on the side of the road, then staggered through brambles and brush to the cave entrance. He entered the darkness of the cave until he could no longer walk. Then he got down on all fours and crawled until he couldn't even crawl anymore. Like a wounded animal, he was looking for a place to die. That darkness that inhabited Johnny Cash could not be explained by the preachers of the old gospel radios he listened to…

On September 6, 2017, during the very long WorldWired Tour (February 2016-August 2019), Metallica played the second of the two scheduled dates at the Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam: at a certain point, towards the middle of the setlist, James Hetfield and Lars Ulrich left the stage, to make room for guitarist Kirk Hammett and bassist Robert Trujillo. In itself it was nothing new, the two had already taken that space to play some jams on other occasions: the unusual factor is that in this case they performed “Radar Love”, anthem by the historic Dutch band Golden Earring, dating back to…
A concert without an audience, immersed in the silence and suggestion of the ruins of the ancient Roman amphitheater of Pompeii. A fusion of the ancient location archaeological and psychedelic rock.

Filmed in a unique context, with only the presence of the crew and excavation workers, the film captures Pink Floyd in a dimension suspended…
Ever since guitar amplifiers grew powerful enough to promise total obliteration, there have been people like BIG|BRAVE’s Mathieu Ball and Robin Wattie, staring into that blind conical eye and figuring out how far inside of it they might travel. Over the Montreal trio’s 10 albums, Ball and Wattie have become scientists and poet-explorers of vibrations, coaxing sensuous waves from the sounds electric guitars make when played, as well as the ones they make when they are just turned up and allowed to hum. Ball built a guitar with an aluminum neck and began placing his headstock on top of his…
