Hardcore punk legende Motus snimili novi spot za Stisnutu šaku!

Leave a comment

Motus Vita Est, legende zagrebačkog HC punka, snimili su novi spot za pjesmu “Stisnuta šaka” u kojem se na fajterski način iskazuje prkos i otpor prema gubitničkom mentalitetu. Nezgodna i teška vremena u kojima živimo kod nekih su pobudila letargiju i mirenje sa sudbinom, ali ne i kod Motusa, jer oni žestoko i agresivno, kao i uvijek, govore da se sudbina stvara, a ne trpi i da je svatko odgovoran za svoju sreću. Iza čvrstog i žestokog zvuka pjesme kroz tekst se provlači odlučan stav, koji je isto tako buntovan i angažiran, kao što je i optimističan. To je punk u samoj svojoj srži i to je ono što široka publika očekuje od punk legende.

Spot je snimio i montirao redatelj Andrej Korovljev, a producent Vedran Kovačić Beli tonski je zabilježio i obradio pjesmu.

Motusi su bend koji rado slušaju tri generacije pankera i rokera, a njihove pjesme se pjevaju i na tulumima i na uvijek atraktivnim živim nastupima. Uz šest studijskih albuma i dalje su vrlo žestoka i punokrvna koncertna atrakcija, koja iza sebe ima i uspješne turneje po Europi.

U nadolazećim tjednima bend se može uhvatiti uživo u splitskom Klubu Kocka 30.4. u sklopu događaja pod nazivom Otpor ulice: Doček Prvog maja, te 21.5. u riječkom Pogonu kulture u sklopu Punk manifesta, gdje nastupaju uz Deafness by Noise i Nulu.

(book) Martin James – Dave Grohl: Foo Fighters, Nirvana & Other Misadventures

Leave a comment

I never thought much of Nirvana, although I recognize and acknowledge what they did for rock music. But, Dave Grohl was always an interesting character, because he came from hardcore punk scene to grunge which I despised much when I was a kid growing up, still despise it. Luckily, grunge died, but Dave has gone on to bring other wonderful bands and create music, namely Probot and most of all, Foo Fighters. Although Foo Fighters were not my choice and cup of tea, when I read books about music, I create kind of soundtrack listening to music that I read about. Thus, I learned to appreciate and love Foo and all their melodies and songs that are really written nice. This book is a biography about life and musicianship of Grohl since his early hardcore punk beginnings with Scream in Washington DC, to Nirvana, coping with death of Cobain, then going on and becoming one of the most revered and famous rock musicians in the world. This book is not top of the mountain, there are some parts that are somehow lame written and kinda too shallow, but it was in all fun to read. What I love is, that this book ends when Dave stiil will have so much to say and play. Hats off to the man, not so much to this book which could have been better.
