Bump Inside Lip Piercing White

Autobombo: Desert - "" Whale Room "(2011)



Some do not know too much my musical side, which is that I have not promoted much by shyness and what tends to happen to be proud of something, but begin to feel unsafe after a (very little) time. That aspect had been largely dormant in recent months (to be benevolent, if not ... anyway), but nothing this weekend materialized two songs that were collected in a new installment of new Deserter that is the name under which they do things since 2005.

Bearing in mind the classic seven-inch single format, Whale Room is part owner in the face A, a strange blend history of insomnia, anxiety, and the juxtaposition of a visit to the museum of natural sciences with the idea of \u200b\u200bbeing swallowed by a whale of truth, in search of refuge without serving too. The skeleton of piano and acoustic guitar influence their (sad) pop sensibility, something that I can not stop the release, I fear.
The B side raised as something spontaneous, composed and recorded within a few hours ("Whale Room" was almost a year but never recorded) and it was expressly the back of the other song . Thus arose 'Avalanche' Sunday morning, a short poem and a creepy background now has me hooked. If I had my record an entire album in that plan. We'll see.

Whale Room can be heard and downloaded Bandcamp:

Minutes: Laura Veirs - 'I Can See Your Tracks" (2010)


Lately I seem to have a fixation with songs that speak of expectation or fear of what will happen, I speak very directly and then I get crucial and sensitive as a child. Will I have a feeling of stagnation and change simultaneously, which is very rare. Also be that I tend to hold on tight to what can not be something that I'm watching with bright eyes but it departs. There is a part of me that is very connected with the conduct that was the first day that my mother took me to the nursery: it is seen that when we were about to reach the door, I used to throw up and had to take home and change. Evidently did not yet have neither the knowledge nor the cunning to act with malice, but I see there is a precedent for this fear to the real world and try to scrape a few seconds more than the warmth and security of being nestled in the loving arms of a figure . Certainly more visceral need than a fad.

Using elements that inhabit marine sites ocean and rugged countryside, Laura Veirs has been doing his fascination with nature and the richness inherent in his images that permeates a whole language their music and very genuine, setting a reading of the folk that breathes using small fixes carry a lively soundscape, wet and wild creatures and weather conditions that develop in their words. 'I Can See Your Tracks' opened his latest work to date, Flame July, but more than to start a record and just, pick up the sense of new beginning with capital letters. Follows the scent of spring dawn in the woods and beats, under tree bark and turpentine, with a tenderness not far to understand that the stories by Maurice Sendak. In point is someone aware Veirs that must look forward and accept an absence, and in each of the three stanzas on which we built the song tempted by the stinging memories but firmly resolved before going to the following:

"Oh, I can see your footprints
but not follow,
'll wish it would rain or wind breaks out mad
to delete them, anchoring them into oblivion

is a beautiful way to express in words the certainty that one must grow and learn to be alone, separated from the one giving her affection, or he was supposed to guard the image of someone, or just an accomplice. The cadence of the music, major chords, gives the story a sense of courage and just hope that I shall soon be overcome terrible, like an adventure story. In these first verses referring to prefer not to know where it is leading the life of that other person, in the second, you know but do not allow him loose knees ( "I can smell the smoke in the fire / but I'll leave you alone / and sleep in this lonely cave ") and in the last accepts that he must learn to protect himself and get on with life ( "I can hear snakes / crawling on the scene / tremble with their boots on / but you will not hear me screaming / you're way to New Orleans" ).

the usual production Tucker Martine is a success: in the same way at other times it seems that we can see a colorful succession of fish leaping out of the ocean, it chooses to focus on the guitar arpeggio and soothing voice (with just reverb) of Laura, which accompanies a successful vocal harmony Jim James involved briefly before the final stanza.

A relief for which we struggle (many sometimes ourselves) to grow, or we can not avoid hanging of nostalgia more than desirable. For those who get along very close to the heart tissue that are afar.

Brothers and Sisters
Today March 22, 2011 met 13 years 3 months who were slaughtered our brethren martyrs in Acteal. Us and we are gathered here again to celebrate once more the brothers and sisters to ask for the strength of our Lord Jesus Christ, that we continue to illuminate our path as long and tireless what we are looking for.

In these days, on March 24 marks the 31st anniversary of the martyrdom of Archbishop Oscar Romero, Bishop of the brotherly people of El Salvador, killed by the powerful to denounce violence against the poor government of their country. In these days a member of the Board of Bees is in El Salvador, as in other years have been several members of our organization, it is necessary to unite our voices as people who denounce injustice and seek peace, for the blood of our martyrs is crying out to heaven in all this land in Latin America that their people were massacred because the powerful want to appropriate their wealth and natural resources.

Strengthened by the blood of our martyrs, the organization Civil Society Acteal Bee never discouraged to commemorate our fathers and mothers demanding justice for our loved ones slaughtered. This was happened in the year 1997 but do not forget this cruel fact committed by the paramilitaries were organized by Mexico's President Ernesto Zedillo Ponce de Leon and Chiapas Governor Julio Cesar Ruiz Ferro and the Area Commander Military in Chiapas, Mario Renan Castillo. All that was following a counterinsurgency plan that they learned in military schools in the U.S. and now their vicious dogs that were trained have left the army and continue massacring innocent but now as the group of Zetas.

Though the rulers in that year and see it as history and not come back to talk about what has already happened, but we can not forget.

peace in our philosophy as we say " the bullet does not kill, what we do is disregard kills" and then it is essential for us to keep the memory alive forever commemorate our martyrs as we are doing today in Acteal to 13 years and 3 months of being killed and massacred our brothers.

But we speak not only about the past but this by what is happening now. All of Mexico is experiencing daily massacres. In places like Ciudad Juárez and the state of Sinaloa, was killed entire families, burn their houses, threatening the survivors and the government does nothing. The government says are drug dealers but we see that when you kill a U.S. agent in a week and have the alleged perpetrators. But when ordinary people are killed when a woman killed in mere gates of the presidential palace, where entire families are destroyed then the government does nothing.

also says the government that those who die are criminals or people who was passing by accident when they were the shootings, but we see that many have died to defend life against the projects of death and destruction. We see that in Chiapas and in Mexico there by killing innocent people is peace, there is persecution for the leaders of different organizations, jailing those who seek justice, peace and dignity to the world.

With these facts we see that the government is afraid the people and wants to silence his voice. Whoever is killed defending the life, instead of those who kill, those who organize wars and those who are criminals are free and released as soon as the perpetrators and masterminds of the slaughter of Acteal. This is a destruction to humanity that exists in our state and our country. The perpetrators of these acts and violations of human rights are the rulers who can not administer justice that is thirsty and hungry people.

As an example of those who are persecuted for defending life is for the comrades Adherents to the Other Campaign in San Sebastian Bach'ajon who suffer repression, harassment , criminalization of their struggles and unjust imprisonment as result of the defense of Mother Earth , is a clear example of the counterinsurgency strategy, such as the government is acting as a form retains, exercising and using the same, with the clear objective for the control of territory and domination of peoples and communities in resistance.
Today we also report some facts that have occurred in our town just two days ago:
1) On March 20, at about 1 pm, Manuel Pérez guzman, representative of the organization of civil society of the Bees Village Community Quextic was harassed and beaten by 6 items the State Police in the county seat of Pantelho, along with two of his brothers who accompanied him. The police accused him of selling drugs and tried to force up his truck. Manuel had told them not to hit him that if he wanted to accompany himself into the truck could peacefully. It seems that this non-violent response calmed down and police withdrew from the place. The number of the patrol was 2P 377. We think it is not just what they are doing, there is no right to mistreat and just people. In case there is no way to resolve problems with respect to the law and people. But it seems that the police can not respect people. Is the same as in 97, when Public Safety accompanied the paramilitaries.
2) On day 20, Javier Ruiz Pérez, a member of the Bees, Quexalucum community, driving a work vehicle at about 8 pm, and almost reached the county seat of Chenalhó, when a van driven by Christopher and Javier Vazquez Gomez went before him, ran over two men walking down the road drunk, causing them instantaneously death. Christopher and Javier Vazquez said in the mayor's trying to blame Javier Ruiz. The problem should have been treated by the justice of the peace of Chenalho, and so I asked the families of the deceased. However, the judges made the case be transferred to the two accused to the Public Prosecutor of San Cristobal, where they were arrested last night even as we write this statement. We know how judges are often in Mexico, such as Supreme Court , not determine, based on justice, if not on the basis of influence and corruption, for fear that they will blame us partner. We demand respect freedom and justice, releasing our partner and hold them accountable to the real culprit.
face of the injustices that are experienced in our town, our state of Chiapas and throughout the country, we of the peace organization "Bees" we call upon the people of Mexico, men and women aware, human, and courageous, not to remain silent or asleep, it's time to raise your voice, it's time we the people, it's time to unite our struggles for liberation of our country in this climate of injustice and impunity, become conscious, take courage, and we demand together with our governing the impartial application of justice against those who violate human rights.

For all these reasons we demand:
Ø immediate and unconditional release of five colleagues, Members of the Other Campaign San Sebastian Bach'ajon.
Ø Justice for the perpetrators and masterminds of the Slaughter Acteal.
Ø Respect our fellow Bees by the authorities.
Ø Respect for the sovereignty of peoples to decide their form of organization.


! STOP THE REPRESSION OF THE COMMUNITIES IN RESISTANCE !
! NOT THE LIFE AND DEATH MEGAPROJECTS!
! IF A DEFENSE LIFE!
! LIVING COMMUNITIES IN RESISTANCE!
! VIVA LA LUCHA PACIFICA OF "THE BEES!

CAREFULLY.
