Humble Pie is the third studio album released by English rock group Humble Pie in 1970, and their first released through A&M Records.
Humble Pie was a transitional album and a harbinger of the band’s new, heavier direction. The material was darker than their previous two efforts, with striking contrasts in volume and style – Peter Frampton’s gentle “Earth and Water Song” is buttressed between two of the heaviest tracks on the record, the band composed [1] “One Eyed Trouser Snake Rumba,” and a cover of Willie Dixon’s “I’m Ready”. Drummer Jerry Shirley contributed a rare lead vocal on his song “Only a Roach,” a country-twinged ode to cannabis that also appeared as the B-side of the summer 1970 single “Big Black Dog”. This was their first release under the auspices of new American manager Dee Anthony – who’d pushed for a louder, tighter sound both live and in the studio – and for their new label, A&M Records. At the end of 1969, the Pie’s old label, Immediate, owned by Andrew Loog Oldham, went bankrupt – a saga chronicled by Marriott on the satirical ballad “Theme from Skint (See You Later Liquidator)”.

“Structures Collapse” is the second EP from Swedish death metal band Humanity’s Last Breath. Apparently their first EP was deathcore in style, but lately they have moved on to a death metal/djent style. I’ve been hearing about djent and Meshuggah a lot more than usual lately. A fair number of bands that list them as an influence, which is interesting to me as I’ve never really been a big Meshuggah fan, but I tend to like the bands they influence.

For as long as technology allows lower frequencies to be presentable in a clean, somewhat audible manner, the war for the heaviest guitar tone and hugest kit will continue to be waged with sticks, stones, and bass strings. A desire to be dynamic and musically invigorated will continuously be replaced by the need to sap the life of genre pioneers until 7 octaves below middle C becomes progressive metal’s sweetspot. Whether or not this is perceived to be a progression or the advent of regressive metal is outside of the question; if they could make it heavy, could we make it heavier？ Few are as involved and understanding of this auditory dong measuring contest than Humanity’s Last Breath. While these gents can certainly navigate their instruments, it seems that all that low end is messing with their perception of individuality.

This is the crushing sound of a million nightmares having night tremors and is not for those of a nervous disposition.
Having been disturbing the musical world since 2009 in Helsingborg, Sweden, Humanity’s Last Breath released Ep’s Reanimated By Hate in 2010 and Structures Collapsein 2011, their self titled debut album was unleashed on the world in 2013. Taking things a little slower, 2016 EP Detestor continued the punishing before single ‘Abyssal Mouth’ was released in 2017 and allowed the time until Abyssalwas ready to destroy with its huge sounding, sadistic feeling and utterly terrifying extreme sound.

The fourth album by this Brooklyn-based collective builds on their strengths in a program that ranges across jazz, improv, and contemporary classical/new music, with a passing nod to the traditions of eastern Europe. As composers, Black, Speed and D’Angelo provide different frameworks for the band’s characteristic, often tensile explorations, heard as well in their atmospheric rendition of the Billie Holiday standard “Left Alone” where they’re joined by vocalist Holly Palmer. The feel moves in and out of time (from jazz-rock to free, polyrhythmic and vamp to rubato), while the shifting textural/melodic interplay demonsrtates their commitment to collective improvisation. As critic Louisa Hufstader remarked about their 1994 New World/Countercurrents release, “You can hear them listening to each other, reevaluating, reacting; there’s both urgency and joy in the process…These are really, really talented guys having fun.” The unedited analog recording vividly preserves the integrity of their playing.

Human Feel have been together 30 years now, with no personnel changes in almost as long. Chris Speed, Andrew D’Angelo, Kurt Rosenwinkel and Jim Black had been developing individual and collective vocabularies in this very outfit, which went on to epitomize the 90s downtown scene. Through it all Human Feel has carried on, and whenever they reconvene they have new musical stories to tell, and old ways of relating, of honing musical structures that depend on precision in the details yet leave much to be determined in performance. Now Human Feel present ‘Gold’ 12 years after their last album. The fusion of various musical idioms and the subtle play of calculation and spontaneity provide a highly individual musical language. Jim Black says, We were joking recently we only make an album every 10 years now … The past four years we’ve been getting together more often to work on new material, and to record when schedules allow. We had an amazing European tour in November 2017. The band just gets better. We believe more than ever that the four of us making music together is a necessity, and we intend to keep doing it wherever and whenever we can.

Champaign, Illinois rock band Hum have surprise-released their first new album in over 22 years: Inlet is the group’s follow-up to January 1998’s Downward Is Heavenward.
Hum—the quartet of Matt Talbott, Tim Lash, Jeff Dimpsey, and Bryan St. Pere—released four albums during their original run from 1991 to 1998. The band is best known for the 1995 hit “Stars.” Hum broke up in 2000 and, prior to the release of Inlet, sporadically reunited for concerts and tours.
The new album is an eight-track release that should appease fans of the band’s ’90s output. Highlights include the album opener “Waves,” the hypnotically epic “Desert Rambler,” the dark yet crushing “The Summoning” and the slow ebbing closer “Shapeshifter.”

The most important thing is in the CD. As mentioned there, for years I brought arrangements to the workshop of Rolf Häsler in Interlaken. The suggestion to record a CD came mostly from the course teachers and when the idea for the production of a CD became concrete, they were also willing to work on the project. My brother Fredi, Roland Bürki, Cornel Studach and Ivo Prato were added. Thus, the band consists of (almost) all course teachers, Ivo and 4 students, a total of 11 musicians. What’s next? We all had a lot of fun with this project and the recordings and we are proud of this CD. Therefore, we are sure to be performing in different venues this year and next year, performing the whole album “live”!

After the big success of the album “Flow” we have here new recordings that are completely different from the previous ones in one respect. Here, the duo of Axel Wolf and Hugo Siegmeth plays exclusively their own pieces. They do not resort to classical material from jazz or ‘standards’ of Early Music, but only to ones that are unfamiliar. For they are pieces that emerged spontaneously: nothing but duo improvisations, most of which were recorded on one and the same day in a Bavarian Radio studio in Munich. The lutenist Axel Wolf and the saxophonist Hugo Siegmeth who join forces here are two musicians with roots in completely different musical disciplines. A virtuoso on the lute and theorbo, Axel Wolf specializes in the Renaissance and Baroque periods, whereas Hugo Siegmeth, saxophonist and composer, is an expert on modern jazz and contemporary music. Although several centuries lie between the heydays of both musical styles, these two musicians both place special focus on improvisation: involvement in the surprising moment and spontaneous interaction.

“Back in the ’50s “background” or “mood music” was the rage. Today, background music has moved to the foreground thanks to the popularity of talented arranger-conductor-composers like Hugo Montenegro. The Montenegro musical credits are most impressive: staff arranger for Andre Kostelanetz, conductor-arranger for Harry Belafonte, important film-scoring assignments (“Hurry Sundown”) and extensive TV work (“I Dream of Jeannie,” “The Outcasts” and “Here Come the Brides”). With selections like Theme from “Valley of the Dolls,” In The Heat of the Night, Theme from “The Fox” and the new hit Hang ‘Em High, this Montenegro album runs the gamut from romantic rock through raunchy blues, brassy mariachi and the bright, lyrical western orchestral settings that made THE MUSIC FROM THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE UGLY such a smash. Here, then, is more of the Montenegro magicimaginative, modern, entertaining and distinctive.”

Recorded in London with the producer Ian Grimble (Daughter, Mumford and Sons, Bear’s Den) at Church’s Studio, between the high walls of a church where Mass is held every Sunday, Yellow was born, song after song. Starting with “Oh My,” a thrilling opening track evoking the toxicity of bad encounters, and moving on to “Million Years,” born during an outdoor getaway, and “Always,” inspired by the passing of a travel loving friend and the fragility of existence, the 12 songs follow each other in a beautiful sequence, cultivating the folk and acoustic sound of Hugo, who wants to bring “light, color, warmth” to his melancholy. His goal is to deliver his life experiences with sincerity without losing the unifying and lively potential of rhythm.
