Worked great. With windows XP you don't need to run compatibility mode. I'm also running iTunes 9.1.1.
Walkthrough: How to Jailbreak iPhone 3.1.3 with Spirit
So with the release of the Spirit jailbreak for iPhone, 3.1.3, it's only appropriate to post a quick how-to, so here it is. And of course, with a jailbreaking tutorial, here comes the disclaimer:
If you're not sure what you're doing and have misgivings about jailbreaking, you probably should stray away. I will say, out of all the jailbreaks that have been released, this one is one of the simplest, and I'm talking blackra1n easy. Walkthrough and video after the break!
First, jump on over to download the Spirit jailbreak software onto your computer. The download can be found here. Download whichever version corresponds to your OS. For those wondering, this WILL work with any version of iTunes, up to the current 9.1.1 version (that's what I have on both my Macs and it works just fine).
Before doing anything else, back up ALL your data via iTunes. I have had a few jailbreaks go downhill and it's always good to have everything backed up just in case you have to restore or your phone gets stuck in DFU mode and you're forced with no other option but a restore (and yes, it happens). Spirit has an issue early on that apparently deleted people's photos. That's supposed to be fixed by now, but I'd back up pictures just to be on the safe side.
Next, quit iTunes and launch Spirit. Just click the button and wait! After a minute you'll see a status bar complete and you should be fully jailbroken! You'll be able to tell when you see the Cydia app on one of your homepages. This is the icon you'll want to look for:
For anyone who is new to the jailbreak scene, you'll want to open Cydia and download a few key things to enhance your experience:
- Winterboard (an essential for theming out your phone)
- Themes! (check out our jailbreak forums for some suggestions)
- Rock App (if you'd prefer it over Cydia, search "RockApp")
- SBSettings (allows a quick swipe to access all your main toggles)
There are a lot of neat apps and tweaks to download (including several plug-ins for SBSettings). Look for coming reviews as well as past ones for jailbroken app reviews. All the ones listed above are free to download. I personally prefer Rock over Cydia as Rock has a very convenient backup system within it to keep track of all your licenses and downloads. It was nice to not have to restore everything I had jailbroken and just click restore from backup. Cydia has ways to backup as well, I just find Rock's interface much nicer. But again, it's a matter of opinion.
If you'd like the ability to SSH into your phone and edit themes, as well as other files, you'll also need to download Terminal and OpenSSH. I only recommend SSH'ing for those who have a pretty decent knowledge of the iPhone OS and how to SSH. Deleting certain files or altering them can be disastrous if you aren't sure what you're doing. So again, approach with caution. And as always, anytime you ever have software installed on your phone that allows remote access, change your root password! If you need help doing that, jump over to the TiPb jailbreak and unlock forums .

Walkthrough: How to Jailbreak iPhone 3.1.3 with Spirit
In cydia search "RockApp" without the quotes. Make sure to run it together. It should come up. I installed it yesterday ok.
Ok, never thought of jailbreaking my 3gs, so forgive the newby questions but if I'm not thrilled with the jailbreak, I can always restore it back to original, non-jailbroke, state - correct? And are there any traces on the phone identifying it's been jail broken? Newbies, I know.. but questions I've always wanted answers to.... thanks!
Restoring it through iTunes will restore it back to default. After a jailbreak, I always set up as a new phone and NOT from a backup as that can bring over bits of the jailbreak that can make it act funny, but yes, you can restore back to stock.
I would have to disagree with the article in recomending Winterboard. I'm happily jailbroken, and I really only jailbrake for one reason: Backgrouder.
I'm happy and stable, but everytime I have messed with Winterboard my phone gets so unstable, and battery life gets so bad that I wind up havingto restore.
In fact I hve learned to just stick with the few littlethings I have and be happy.
Just a warning from my anecdotal experience.
will this unlock the iPhone to use on other networks like T-mobile or is that and jailbreaking two different beast?
This will not unlock your phone at the current time.
I don't have any disadvantages for you, per say. You may experience a few crashes, etc... depending on what you have installed. But the point of a JB is to add functionality. There's risk involved, so don't do it if you aren't comfortable, but a functional jb adds many benefits.
So I have an earlier version of the OS that is Jailbroken. Do I need to restore to factory, then do this or can I just install the OS on my phone and then Jailbreak? I guess if I'm going to do a factory reset I need to figure out all the things I use currently (categories and Winterboard being two big ones) so I know what to reinstall later right?
Hello I'm really thinking about JB my 3gs this would be my first time ever doing this, what I'm about to ask might be a noob ?. If I Jb my iPhone can I keep all my apps I have on my phone and will I be able to use my iPhone as a wifi hot spot? And if I use it as a wifi hot spot will AT&T know that I'm using my iPhone as a wifi hot spot?
...nicely done Allyson!
I jailbroke my phone for the very first time using Spirit.
(I caved in to peer pressure)
Everything works great.... only problem is my battery drains so much quicker than before.
Any ideas on what's causing it?
These are the apps I've got installed.
-GV Mobile
Anyone know which apps are causing the battery drain? Should I get a new phone? Unjailbreak?
I've made sure that all processes are closed via sbsettings when I put my phone to sleep and that bosspaper and winterboard aren't on at the same time, but my battery stills drains quickly
(even when I don't use my phone)
Do y'all recommend this jailbreak for the iPad?
so everything was fine until today and then i cant connect calls but other people from my area with ATT are unaffected. So I am restoring backup to see if the jailbreak is to blame. We shall see i guess.
@Rich--I've learned the hard way on this one: BACK UP YOUR PHOTOS! it's a pretty minute thing to think about before you jailbreak but there's always that one little photo you miss having. So if your on windows, you should be able to go to StartMenu/Computer/ and there should be a little iPhone under devices where you can simply copy and paste your photos out of there. And yes SMS' do get saved, but only the ones before your most recent backup obviously. And unless your confident that you sync your notes (via Mac Mail.app) they don't get backed up. No note sync, no backup.
And for anyone worried about risks, the best way to avoid any troubles is to just not announce it to the world you've just jailbroken your iPhone. And since I prefer not to use winterboard because off battery drainage, it's not that big of problem. But make sure you don't accidently bring that baby into an apple store looking for help. They'll give a good old boot in the you-know-what to all your free support.
I would advise against RockApp. The people who make/run it apparently are a little shady, and they modify Cydia which will cause problems when Cydia updates. Of course, do what you think is best but I figured I'd throw it out there for you all to consider. Here's a link to an article about it: http://xsellize.com/topic/65506-do-not-rock-your-phone/
Spirit ...just works. What a flawless and stupidly simple jailbreak!
Hi.. so if I have a jailbroken 3.1.2, and I would like to update to 3.1.3.. do I update first and lose everything, then use spirit, or use spirit, then update? If I update to 3.1.3 first, and the jailbreak with spirit, will everything restore back after I jailbreak with spirit? Hope that make sense... thanks
new jailbreakers makes me laught :)
I was on 3.1.2, jailbroken, and happy. I upgraded to 3.1.3, spirit broke my phone, reinstalled all my cydia apps, and I'm finding that infinidock makes it so i cannot rearrange my apps in itunes. When I move things around using the iphone they go back after an itunes sync. I'm trying different scenarios to see if I can figure out a fix. Any ideas?
@Micky1701 - Well there isn't a huge difference between 3.1.3 and 3.1.2, just the battery meter issue (which I experienced) - other than that, if you don't want to restore etc, stay on 3.1.2, I don't see a huge difference feature wise (none actually)
@jimmyc - sounds to me like something from the actual firmware did not install correctly, not jailbreak related. i'd completely restore, jailbreak, then set up as a NEW phone, not from a backup, in that order. that should fix your issues.
@Krypto74 - install winterboard and select "user wallpaper" - and no that should not drain your battery. when you have multiple customizations you may see battery drain, but just a wallpaper should not have an impact.
@David - backup your phone (sync with iTunes), upgrade to 3.1.3, then jailbreak, then restore from a backup. you should be fine that way.
@P2hero - you can keep everything you currently have. a jailbreak just adds functionality, doesn't take anything away. just restore from a backup or resync things (i prefer starting new and setting up as a new iPhone, no backup - but i know some people don't have that option as they don't have mobileme or an easy solution for contacts, calendars, etc except for a backup)
And in general, themes shouldn't drain your battery, I know some do, especially themes that COMPLETELY change the UI, but winterboard in general doesn't drain your battery, it just depends what you have applied. weather widgets and other live widgets cause the biggest drains. general icons, docks, chat bubbles, and UI tweaks shouldn't have a noticeable affect on your battery life.
I've tried several times but every time I got the same warning message. For your information I'm using Windows Xp and Itunes latest version 188.8.131.52. I downloaded the EXE files 3 times and tried every compatible mode available there. But the result is same.. Spirit can detect my Iphone with version 3.1.3 Following text what I receive when I click to jailbreak the device …
Spirit encountered an error while jail breaking your device. Do you want o send a log of what happened??

I am not that technical when it comes to iPhones, so hopefully someone can help me!! My brother recently went traveling and gave me his iPhone, I used Blackra1n to jailbreak the phone (as i was on a different network). Stupidly I updated to version 3.1.3 without realising that this would stop Blackra1n from working, so now my iPhone is like a itouch. Will the Spirit Jailbreak unlock the phone for other networks? Hope that makes sense
@Amy: like Frank Zappa used to say "who gives a F U C K"!
Allyson, Thank you for the info. Unfortunately I have some texts that I have to keep. Restoring as new wipes 'em out. I'll live without infinidock for now. I have a complete backup/aptbackup so I can test every now and again to see if it's work. Nice to see someone so helpful to a lot of folks here.
@Rossy22 - no it will not unlock devices at this time
@Jalen - yes, it should. it supports a jailbreak for an iPod touch running 3.1.3
I just ordered my iphone 3.1.3 and i am comfused, please someone help me. If i only unlock my phone can i still install apps from itunes? I have want to unlock it so i can use it with Tmobile but i wonder if jailbreaking is necessary for Tmobile to work? What is the point of jailbreaking? Please help me.
I'm having a problem. I was able to use Spirit successfully but as I was opening Cydia for the first time, I clicked "Quit" on the Spirit program and for some reason, it began jailbreaking my phone again. I let it complete the jailbreak again but then when I opened Cydia, I got a bunch of cache errors and now when I try to install a program, Cydia says:
"Note: The requested modifications cannot be applied due to required dependencies or conflicts that cannot be automatically found or fixed."
Any suggestions? Thanks a bunch!
Another newbie with a question, I've broken my phone with spirit a few days back with the intentions on bringing my tmobile sim card over into it. I removed the att sim card and inserted the tmobile card. The iphone came back with a searching and then eventually shows "No Service". I still can use my WiFi at home but I'd love to use my phone again. Any help would be much appreciated. Lastly, I did install ultrasn0w. I read I needed that. Anyways...
Hi, I have a problem with SPIRIT software. I did whole process of jailbreaked my ipod touch (I have 2G with OS 3.1.3. MC model) Everything is ok,. When it finished. I've got Cydia app in mi iTouch. Apparently that's it. I have finally my MC MODEL Jailbreaked. But it is not. Because when I try to install cracked apps from iTunes I can't. Also I tried with iPhone PC Suite but it says that my ipod touch isn't jailbreaked. Same thing with iFun Box. These two softwares say that my iTouch is NOT Jailbreaked. Wierd thing.
So, what can I do? Someone can help me?
Thank you.
man, my 3gs screwed up a week ago and I lost my jailbreak....thanks to Spirit it was super quick and easy to do it all over again, thanks!
Dear experts. Please help!! I used Spirit for my 3GS ver 3.13. firmware 5.12.01. Rebooted and cydia appeared. Everything works fine until i started adding sources and packages. After one of the reboots i keyed in my sim lock passwd as usual only to find that it can't detect my mobile carrier which was working fine before. When I detect carrier it says unable to find network list. Can I restore back to original 3.13 and retry with Spirit? Will that work? Thanks!
CONFIRMED: does work with newer MC bootrooms, just did it myself. WOOT WOOT, iphone broken :D
Does the fixcydiaCache-AFC tool work with a phone jailbroken with spirit! PLz help thanks Cydia just opens and immediately decides to crash! thank you!
@Bo945 and @Tukkis - this is only going to jaibreak your phone, it will NOT unlock it. If you upgraded to 3.1.3 and jailbroke, you have lost your unlock until one is released.
well this is da best JB after fenomenal Blackra1n .. ;)
Hi Alliyson, I just downloaded Spirit and tried to jailbrake my IPhone 3GS 3.1.3. Spirit says: IPhone 3GS 3.1.3. connected, but after starting the programm I recieve an failure message saying: "Spirit encountered an error while jailbreaking yout IPhone device. Do you what to send a log of what happened? " Can you help me out?
Hey, I tried using spirit to jailbreak my brand new iphone 3gs running 3.1.3 OS. I got the following error:
INFO: Now listening for devices...

Any Ideas as to what this means ?
Awesome! I just jailbroke my brand new iPhone 3GS. I used Arch Linux on my Netbook, and it worked instantly. I have one problem. I use Voiceover, the screen reading software for the blind, and it does not work with Cydia. I've read of alternative installers, hopefully one that will work with Voiceover, but I can't use Cydia to install them. Does anyone have any suggestions? I jailbroke it because neither the blind or Linux users can use iTunes, and I fall into both categories.
Hi, I used Spirit to jailbreak my phone, installed openssh, and tried to connect with WinSCP. It does not connect, telling me that the connection has timed out. I then tried iphonebrowser, and I seem to be able to connect to my phone with it, however, when I try to upload SMS tones, the required folders arren't present on my phone. I try to use the "GoTo Location" feature in iphonebrowser, but it tells me that it could not find the folder path. "Have you successfully use jailbreak?" Please help.
@simon no you just have it jailbroken you need to unlock it thats a diffrent procedure..
@erak no you cannot update to os 4 until there is a jailbreak for that, but having your phone jai lbroken already does what os 4 does so there isn't really any point to upgrade besides saying that you have os4.. ;)
Awesome! I just jail broken my brand new 3GS 16Gig 3.1.3 iphone. :)
It was amazing, my IPhone 3G 3.1.3 (05.12.01) was jailbroken in 30 seconds. Thank You!!!
I tried to open the link but I got an error report
"Not Found
The requested URL /Harddrive/Spirit.exe was not found on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request."
I'm running windows, which is probably a sin, but it wont open and my last ipod update deleted my jailbreak :'(
I have a 1st gen ipod touch and i'm dying without cydia.
WHEN U R READING THIS DONT STOP OR SOMETHING BAD WILL HAPPEN! MY NAME IS SUMMER I AM 15 YEARS OLD i have BLONDE HAIR ,MANY SCARS no NOSE OR EARS.. I AM DEAD. IF U DONT COPY THIS jUST LIKE FROM THE RING, COPY N POST THIS ON 5 MORE SITES.. OR.. SUMMER WILL APPEAR ONE DARK QUIET NIGHT WHEN UR NOT ExPECTING IT BY YOUR BED
@ Kelly: note in the video, Allyson refers to iTunes 9.1. According to www.iphonehacks.com, they advise not to try to jailbreak using Spirit if you have upgraded iTunes to 9.2.
Bernoulli, had you already upgraded your iTunes to 9.2, or were you still on 9.1.1??
Rule of thumb: if you can't define "firmware", you probably shouldn't be jailbreaking.
I successfully jailbroken my 3GS w/ 5.12.01 baseband and installed ultrasn0w but it hasn't unlocked the phone yet. I tried a T-Mobile sim card and still says "No service" which means it is not recognized.
Please help because I'm traveling over-seas next week and need to use my phone outside the US. Thanks.
30 seconds. It's done. Thank you!!! I am happy about it, but my phone is now locked. How can I unlock my phone again? I'd like to use it for phone calls too. Pls help! iPhone 2g 3.1.3, iTune 9.1.1.
Could someone tell me how to unlock my iPhone 3.1.3? I used Spirit to jailbreak it. It works great! I need to unlock it too. Plz help.
I have run the spirit jailbreak and now have the cydia app icon on the screen but when i press the icon it goes to cydia screen for approx 2 seconds then reverts back to my homescreen.
Anyone able to help please, I have been without jailbreak for far too long now!!!!!
I used your program. After i jailbroke the phone it restarted and went into a background and started that spinning wheel in the center of the phone. before that it seemed to be restarting fine. what to do?
I doesnt work for my iphone 2G 3.1..got an error as below.
Or maybe its a wrong jailbreak, im not really experienced with that. My iphone has "no SIM card installed" error. Can anybody help..?

Like jason richardson has mentioned above I too used your program. After running it phone restarted and went into a colorfull background and started that spinning wheel in the center of the phone. And there was a horizontal line at the middle. It never restarted. Then I had to shut it down using Start/Home keys. Now when I press Power key it shows the Apple logo and stops. Please help me. What is the solution for this. How can I recover my phone
I had the same problem with my 2G 3.1.3.
Had you found out the solution?
anybody knows you can send your suggestion to email@example.com
after i installed the jailbreak i opened the app, it did its downloads as it was supposed to and rebooted my phone. i went to open it again and and my phone froze and its been like this for a good 10 minis. does anyone know what to do or how to fix email@example.com please e mail me tnx
To folks that had the status bar problem/stuck on apple logo...I had the same problem. And I couldn't restore, for some reason. My phone was 3.1.3 originally, and couldn't restore it.
However, iTunes could still talk to the phone, while it was on the Apple logo screen.
If you're in this situation...just re-run the Spirit.exe and do it again. It worked the second time for me.
Easiest j/b process ever. Was jailed for almost a year, nice to have Cydia back again and be able to change themes.
Thank you!!
Just found your website on google and i think it's a shame that you simply aren't ranked increased given that this is a marvelous put up. To alter this I determined to avoid wasting your internet site to my RSS reader and that i will try to mention you in 1 of my posts because you truly deserv much more readers when publishing content material of this top quality.
I jailbroke mi iPhone last night and I was concerned at first then everything did what it was suppose to. It was stuck with the progress bar and a spinning wheel in the center but not showing a thing on the progress bar. I did turn off my iPhone to see what that would do and stuff. The apple icon did show up at first but then went to the progress bar and to my releif it did did what it was suppose to do. My Cydiea did work first try and it did updates and downloads to my phone. I imagine that it was suppose to do. Now I am seeing how I can run internet to my computer so when I get my a laptop I can use my iPhone as the server, I also gonna see if it works as a WIFI for ny neices iPod touch. Thanks for everything to helping us get the full potential out of my Iphone.

Just Like Home Water Pressure Anywhere
SHURflo potable water pumps have enjoyed a near legendary reputation for performance and longevity among recreational vehicle owners since the late 1960s and they continue to set the industry bar even higher with their new, "Extreme Series" of Potable Water pumps. Possessing an improved physical design, a maximized PSI rating and incorporating a pressure management system monitored by an onboard circuit board and microprocessors, the SHURflo Extreme Series line of pumps represents the ultimate in pump performance and reliability, with the Smart Sensor 5.7 model representing the top-of-the-line.
The Smart Sensor 5.7 is specifically designed to provide larger RV's with "Just Like Home" flow and pressure to drastically improve the performance of showers, toilets, sinks, washing machines, dishwashers and whole-house filtration units. This is made possible by way of the Smart Sensor 5.7's powerful five chambered design, and its system of extra large inlet and outlet passages. Together these are able to generate 65 PSI, more PSI than any SHURflo potable water pump before it. Once available, this amazing amount of pressure allows for up to 5.7 gallons per minute which is managed and maintained by the system of onboard microprocessors, allowing for both multi-fixture use within the system as well as variable speed. The result is an abundant, effortless and quiet flow of water that will change the way users feel about water use aboard their RV.

To start, some definitely delectable favourites with no unexpected extremities.
TOP FAVOURITES- All beautiful in their own unique ways
Liz Green- 'Midnight Blues', single
A startlingly unique voice in both sound and intonation, half swallowed, from back of the throat, shares remarkable affinity with sleazy muted trumpet, slinkily weaving in duet. Beguiling, sparse yet totally mesmeric vocal and instrumentation with wonderfully strangulated, twisted, buzzing brass, louche double bass and picked acoustic guitar, telling late night house party tale "...as the light breaks in... I lie between the wool and my lover's knees ..." (who hasn't been there?), which would sound equally at home in Gatsby style speakeasy or smoky Parisian jazz club, my choice of most original and individual song. www.lizgreenmusic.co.uk
Troumaca- 'The Gems', EP
Refreshingly original, vibrant five piece, intriguing delectable concoction of juicy jungle, tribal new wave Indie, deepest, car boot dub bass, shaking vibrating, sonorous booty to electronic dance, in flirtation with Boy George ,Finley Quaye and East 17 on 'Fire' and 'Sanctify', sparkling distillations drawing subtle inspiration from contemporary and traditional sound palettes, my favourite being lustrous, mesmerising 'Layou'(Dub) with broken, staccato, clipped, deeply resonant samples and loops ,'dub no bass with my head man' magnetic bass, drum rim percussion and subtle electronic touches, synergetic agents, synthesising wondrous new potions, love it. http://troumaca.co.uk/
Vanilla Gorillaz- 'Make It Alright', single
Having reviewed their "disturbingly appealing" first single, 'Wilderbeast', back in November I was looking forward, though not without trepidation, to this second outpouring and wasn't disappointed, similarly deliriously deranged agglomeration of genres, 80's electronica, New Wave, cheesy synths and effects, electronic dance, deep, pokey, dubby bass, ABC vocals, and prog rock guitar breaks, which shouldn't coalesce, synthesise insanely danceable, demented deliciousness , which becomes irretrievably irresistible for me , when borrowing seriously seductive bass line, from 'Deepest Blue', catch me, I'm falling, swoooooon, a definite favourite. www.myspace.com/vanillagorillazmusic
My Tiny Robots- 'Guild Of Defiants', single
Spangly, jangly guitar daggers glint, pirate drum beats, gleeful and deep, swaggering vocals on bouncing feet, trip along to cheeky beat, "....we've got to wear pointy shoes... so we know which way we are going...", prancing into effusive guitar break before bowing out with apologetic nod and shrug. Mischievously defiant, fresh smiling face of catchy pop, laced with taste of irony. Having been captured in December by previous single, 'Rock Bossa Nova Four Beat Black', these irreverent musical mavericks float high on my sea. www.mytinyrobots.com
Morning Bride- 'Blue-eyed Boy', single
Melodica, dirtied up folk violin and steel bottleneck guitar, distinctive heralds to clear beauty of Amity's vocal, round which they weave delicately inventive instrumentation, tip toe, sway to her offbeat, tenderly caressed by Mark James's vocal, grounded by hurdy gurdy hollow drums and shake of tambourine. American folk wanders this fair land, garbed in sixties psychedelia, Steeleye Span meets Marianne Faithful, which makes it a favourite. www.morningbride.co.uk
IN HIS OWN CATEGORY - Classy, pure electronic dance heaven
Max Cooper- 'Amalgamations', EP and 'Kahuna's 'Hayling' remix', single
1. 'Amalgamations', EP:
Elegantly musical electronic remixes of two very different pieces;
Remix of Hiatus's 'Third' takes bare electronic/vocal bones of original, subtly re clothes its skeleton, ephemeral layers spun round melancholic scraps of rotating piano theme, clear droplets reminiscent of Keith Jarrett's Koln improvisations, electric crackle beckoning glowering bass, hailing distant operatic vocal riding dark, billowing clouds, sparking violin flash, angry skies torn by distant lightening, gathering raindrops, brewing summer storm, minimalist instrumentation building to lushly verdant orchestrated sunshine, burnishing menace, evaporating tears in sparkling hiatus. A masterly remix retaining filmic, atmospheric, almost modern jazz qualities of the original while adding its own gentle ambience and for me, merest, subtlest hint of Tilt/Maria Naylor's 'Angry Skies' endears it even more.
The second piece, featuring sampled cut up vocals from electronically inspired pop trio, Get People's 'Careless', subverts innocently breezy original, free floating it through cold and mysterious outer space in company of whispering, chattering ghosts, perforated vocals adding rhythm to hypnotic, snatched backbeat, sound sucked into vacuum, mesmerised by buzzing, flitting, carousing firefly creatures, pinpricks gathering to swarm, briefly illuminating eternal night with careless curiosity before dancing off to their own tune. Though also ambient, steady, leaning blip beat and rhythmic vocal pulls this tune into dancier territory, Sasha, 'Xpander' with Gus Gus undertow, a place where I am most happy to be. Original, well considered electronica with dance cutting edge.
2. 'Kahuna's 'Hayling' remix', single:
For me simplicity of the original is perfect but I cannot deny love for this super chilled, under the water remix which retains its character, including purity of Hafdis Huld's (coincidently once with Gus Gus) mesmeric vocal punctured by startling , slightly discordant, diving bell intervention, silver snarl biting into euphoria. The remix further slashes silk with lusciously deep, buzzing bass and darkly percussive stuttering heart plunged into watery analogue mine sweep depths where monstrous sea monster feet slosh and squelch in warm jet stream of submarine engine hum, best dance remix I have heard for a while. The shorter radio edit, condensed and busier, for me doesn't allow oxygen of breathe in the same way but none the less, enthralling. www.maxcooper.net/
WHISTLING TO THEIR OWN TUNE - More than mere wailing, conquerors exploring new territories
More Than Conquerors- 'Boots & Bones', EP
Exceptionally inventive drumming /percussion and choir boy clarity of impassioned, Oliver Twist, urchin vocals singles this band out, striating rock orientation of bands such as The Vines, with sparkling bands of colour, to create emotive Indie, Midlake's emotional and melodic qualities with rock and roll heartbeat, mixing old and new into fabulously fresh sound, which together with imaginative lyrical content, musicality and versatility is showcased on this five song EP.
'Oh My Son!' and 'Bear Knuckle Fight', pits driven rock guitar and hard hitting drums against street gang chants and captivating percussive elements, Mexican wave waterfall drums and cowbells; 'The Deer & The Fox' allows further individual elements to emerge from rock miasma, picked guitar, tight sympathetic drums and beautiful deep bass motif sliding into more minimal 'Hunting For The Whale' and 'A Lion, A Man', leaving anthems behind to espouse experimentation , explore deeper territory, pounding heartbeat drums, dark keyboards, touch of vocal effects and sampling, sinister throbbing bass and grated, grungy guitars, creating atmosphere, space to allow vocals and classic melodies to unravel and reveal their nuances, their Kate Bush side.
Jake Morley- 'Freddie Laid the Smack Down', single
Sunny, hurdy gurdy streetwise, jaunty urban jungle jangle, smoky laid back vocal "...yeah..." struts confidently wary, "... you'll never take my soul...." along to hand claps, marching drums, swaying fiddle, sparkling mandolin/guitar and brothel creeper double bass, updated sticks and stones, "...nothing left to do but learn to dust yourself down..." new boy, appealingly catchy, modern day folk rap, magical little number.
The Savage Nomads- ' What The Angel Said', single
Innovative art house rock engaging enthralling amalgam of influences, vocal; Byrnes inflected with Bowie hinting at poetic lyricism of Morrison, "...your smile will stretch your eyes open wide...embracing simple sights ...broken winter skies..." part barked, part chanted, part spoken, over driving rock drums and weeping guitar speaking in Cult like riffs with Talking Head bass, diving at times into Velvet's dark depths, entrancing intrigue.
Ravens In Paris- 'Don't Be A Stranger'/ 'The Hideaway', single
Energising, exuberant, exhilarating, driving Indie with melodic punk attitude, pounding, skittering drums, drubbing grungy bass cut by glass guitar shards, unrelenting vocals, emphatic, spirited choral chants, all sprinkled with effervescent electronic effects, magical combination which lifts this from effective, to enticing effervescence.
Honeykill- 3 Track Demo
Well matched, proficiently compatible band of four, new wave Indie with seamy, punk attitude, restrained yet potent and vital. My favourite track, 'Hate' is the darkest, dangerous sadistic guitar, fluttering tight skinned drums and throbbing deep bass skip chilling heartbeat , menacing Nick Cave vocal, slashed with Nirvana, shivered by xylophone, wafted by misty special effects, appealing in originality and musical delivery. 'Easier' and 'Ticket to the Floor' though full of drive and attitude, pounded drums, pumping bass, punk vocal delivery with hint of Costello, chugging guitars with tendency to break into rock style riffs, slightly lose the plot in places, not as musically subtle or original but still refreshingly ear cleansing.
Bear Cavalry- 'Maple Trails', EP
Fresh sounding, sunny, quirky Indie rock, racing, embracing life with vibrant, zealous voice, imaginative impetuosity innovates instrumentation which sparkles with ardently articulated vocals, dancing drums, tightly tongued triumphant trumpet and delectable little guitar licks, which occasionally lose their way or fall over in enthusiasm competing with show stealer, astonishingly dextrous, delightfully distracting bass. 'Roman Summer' and 'Custom Hands' in general bowl melodically, chirpily along, with odd stumble, 'Will Smith solves the Rubik's cube', more ruminative, has beautiful instrumentation, including triumphant trumpet fanfare but at times meanders, seizes, loses flow while 'Dragon's Milk Pt ii', displays more experimental side to the band with cheeky keyboard/sound effects, foraying into prog rock, slightly disjointed and schizophrenic but none the less, intriguing. Certainly on the trail, but possibly in need of cavalry to keep them gathered and pointed in the right direction.
Susie Soho- 'Twelve Twenty Seven', EP
Extremely well put together band and EP, consistently musically and tonally appealing, employing well worn and loved emotive Indie musical phrases, sung and played with conviction, easy to listen to, yet somehow, despite beautifully melancholic, maudlin guitars, precise, sensitive drums, imaginative walking bass, engaging vocals and fleeting touches of esoteric coloration , there is a certain predictability, both musically and lyrically, distinctiveness dulled by general lack of variation, in timbre and intonation and vocals more sung narrative than poetry.
However, not everything needs to be novel or said for the first time to make it worthwhile, so, in exploring universal themes, "... I can't keep waiting round for you... you're just not listening...." ('Your Way Or Not At All'), "...... dirty secrets... damage limitation...." ('Stand Up'), "... no matter with the truth is... you bring it back to you... your love affair with yourself..." ('Making Taste'), "... I'm bewitched...rabbit in your headlights... helpless..." ('An Eye for an Eye'), this EP flows smoothly and confidently in calm waters and for me, was worth the listen simply for snippets of fabulous bass line running under vocal of 'An Eye for an Eye'.
City Reign- 'Numbers For Street Names', EP
Musical, mawkish, introspective Indie rock of sobbing vocal , chainmail guitar variety, metallic, close knit with barely chink, brow beaten by chugging bass and drums, recycling variations on familiar, ever emotive hooks, core melodic themes and chord progressions, especially on 'Making Plans' 'Sleep Easy' and 'Out In The Cold' , guitar riffs merging into one. 'The Line' allows bass , guitar and percussion freer speech but still centres round this same, admittedly appealing repertoire, repetitiveness emphasised by certain lack of vocal variation. 'Anywhere Anyway' stands slightly aside with its jangly guitars, deep bass keyboard, rounder vocal timbre and greater melodic inventiveness but for me, my favourite track by this band remains 'Stranded', from previous EP 'Daybreak' lyrically and instrumentally more illustriously individual, it hints at what might be.
TURNING BROWN EYES BLUE - Or making them weep, one way or another.
Circus Envy- 'Say Something' and 'Regret', singles
Heart catching sorrowful reflective folk, strummed, picked mandolin, passionately bowed, scraped fiddle, strolling, dipping bass , time keeping drums recall essence of traditional folk idioms, refrains and instrumentation, brushed with blues chagrin of Indie ballad, narrated in hazy voice of wafting smoke; beautiful mixture of traditional and contemporary folk's classically alluring melodies.
Red Sky July- 'How to Get Your Love', single
Though maybe not that innovative, captivating classic, beautifully clean, two enthralling voices in visceral, touch of 'Jolene', American country harmony, polished, highly musical counterfoils for each other , gently supported by glittering, picked guitar, fragile but perfectly formed.
The Lights- 'Mostly Water', single
Pretty and perfectly formed, crystal clear siren singer, wretched , torn, sailing with her highly able crew, "... into the blue....", beautiful sounds tumble, roll and fall on heaving waves of emotion "... going down with a sinking ship... clinging to the wreckage by a finger tip...sunken...", capsizes emotion, neatly captured angst.
Katie Malco- 'Katie Malco & The Slow Parade', EP
'Laadeedaa' and 'Johnny' matter of factly accept fate's hand, with good grace or regret, in clear sweet voice which sways, sashays, skips, trips lightly round familiar folk idioms and themes, like life itself, slight, well trodden, yet intensely deep, pin pricked by shimmering threads of strummed, picked guitar, delicately embroidered with vibrant hues of plucked, bowed strings, fleet foot bass and gently sympathetic percussion, sprinkled with glitter of keyboard; 'Get In The Car', more nakedly introspective contemplates 'vanishing into the night' of deep indigo bass; 'Florence Nightingale' meanders maudlin into blue country, stripped down voice and acoustic guitar but sadly, 'Sad Eyes' loses vision, blurs clarity, wandering off distractedly into rather cheesy soft rock
Said The Whale- 'New Brighton', EP
Beautifully constructed, passionately expressed gentle Indie folk, tinged with touch of prog rock, well observed, engaging tales of life, though sometimes loses its originality in soft rock forays. My favourite is stripped back, largely acoustic, violin, guitar, bass, piano, xylophone and vocal, touchingly affectionate, lilting 'Little Bird', "...she sang all night... I had forgotten how to sing... had a broken wing.... she sang to mend... will fly again someday...we sang all night...like a window in my heart..." which commands enthralled attention in its simple beauty.
The Portlands- 'Blue Sea Blues'/ 'Every Word I Sing Is A Lie'
Folk essence expressed in soft metal rock's voice, beauty and the beast , shimmering folk instrumentation chased, full tilt, helter-skelter by rock panoply, galloping, rolling Adam Ant drums, wild horse guitars ,chugging bass and emblazoned vocals, conceives surprisingly comely offspring, 'Blue Sea Blues' being the more melodically enticing of the two, 'Every Word I Sing Is A Lie' slightly more pedestrian and predictable with disconcerting Meatloaf spicing, though the frantic , syncopated drumming at the end is worth waiting for.
Nick Fisher- 'Pipe Dream', new song
Having reviewed Nick's 'Regression and Progression' demo last October, melodically engaging , delicately instrumented songs with New Age feel, altruistically released into ether by home recording technology, I wondered how newly fledged bird fared since first flights. Though 'Pipe Dream' has lost fluffy down of innocent wonderment and tentative optimism, it soars and rides jet streams on more confidently muscular wings which, as well as acquiring a dose of vocal cynicism, supplements acoustic guitar, now vigorously strummed, with bass, drums, sharp handclaps and keyboard, harder, feistier sound, though still kissed by vestigial contrails of Aquarius mist, wisps of originality which I hope do not evaporate in determined flight towards burning sun.
Patrick Plunkett - 'Attracting Attention', single
Laid back Sinatra/ Manhattan Transfer swing with jazzy edge, unfurled bow tie vocal, lounge lizard chill immaculately presented as the lady on his arm, mellow, cucumber cool bass, syncopated piano, feline guitar and artfully subtle percussion, sofa to sink into with G and T.
Sport of Kings- 'Logic House', EP
Draws unmistakeably on Steely Dan's musical heritage, especially evident in 'Free Jazz', cool shimmering chill, sleek caressing vocals glimmer, in full control of high gloss poop, serenaded by polished horn section. However, despite this highly appealing sound, lacks Steely Dan's glittering subtlety and sensitive touch, especially when leaping into anomalous, rather startling breaks and slightly heavy handed indulgence in strange musical interludes, as in 'Preface', which cruises up back waters, to grinding halt, sunny and laid back but teetering on edge of comatose.
The Salt Flats- 'Songs of Fleetwood Mac', EP
I must admit trepidation when it comes to 'covers', even sensitive reinterpretations in adoring homage. It is true Salt Flats approach these four, for me perfectly considered originals, with utmost reverence, duet of beautiful vocal harmonies which none the less lack Lindsey Buckingham's emotional depth and tonal coloration, while strangely, original instrumentation sounds more innovative , harmonic subtleties lost in a translation which leaves little space for simple beauty ,dragging somewhat. However, while Salt Flats may have over seasoned perfectly composed dish, it proves difficult to ruin magical ingredients, suck soul from creations of such delight, still shining bright;
'Never going back again' introduces nice effects but sadly misses sweetly picked guitar glimmer, somewhat trite Parton/Abba choir and twee synthesiser plod, clip clop along depressingly, despite cheery sounds and tempo akin to its template.
'Silver Springs', Cowgirls duet pretty harmonies in shimmering heat haze but pedestrian drums, distracting sound effects and disintegration into saccharine mush cannot capture enticement of laconic, wistful original.
'Big Love' misses fluttering guitar heart and percussive coloration, takes more sinister tone than original tortured, yearn, country style harmonies and hillbilly instrumentation galloping ahead of subtlety.
'Everywhere', though not recapturing subtle poignancy is sweet and sunny, for me best rendition of the four, with warped mandolin, bell and flute like synths, hint of strings and keyboard , strangely satisfying underlying buzz and Abba/Parton duet which skips along in perfect harmony.
NO PARKING - Garage demolition punk
Beretta Suicide- 'Beretta Suicide', EP
Badged as "punk rock" Beretta Suicide sound musically better dressed than make do and don't mend insignia usually pinned to punk. Though adopting nomenclature of repeated rifled riffs delivered at blistering speed and barked vocals, their bank of musical phrases reaches beyond signature minimal attitude to chord and note progressions into realms of grunge, prog rock with large scoop of heavy rock, raw energy tempered into more rigorous and melodic vigour which, none the less, exudes high voltage aural excitation, attitude and great musicianship, especially when branded with their own motifs, pugilists in velvet.
Each song, though hung on familiar hooks, has some ingénue inflection which intrigues, such as intro to 'To Play And Win', tribal drums, shredding guitar approach like avenging army though battlefield mist of throbbing bass, chemical warfare vocal emerges as if from gas mask, backing on helium, rapier guitars slash like machetes and final genius touch, sampled Charlie Sheen rant, "... I am on a drug, it's called Charlie Sheen..."
'Another Wolf In The Wings', despite heavy metal guitar riffs and vocals, snarls with grunge, "...I howl... I paw... I sniff... I claw...now I am just like them....another wolf in the wings...", an unplugged acoustic version laying bare rhythm and blues bones and beguiling Nirvanaesque sensibilities.
'Itchy' and 'Go Slow', heavy metal with punk attitude; 'Said They Couldn't Do It' most typically punk, embellished with alluring skidding/sliding guitar and vocal while 'Oh Lord's' prog rock intro mutates, via what sounds like paper and comb and Rush flecked percussion, into hard rock and heavy metal.
Thee Vicars- 'Every Day' / 'Don't Wanna Be Free', single
Compared to The Seeds, similarities can be heard in bass and drums but Thee Vicars don't have their psychedelic, Monkees style irony, despite being garbed as Wild West undertakers. What they do have is raw enthusiasm, Jam crossed with punk, heavy metal, rock, touch of hillbilly, Ska/Mod with wardrobe malfunction, mud splattered sharp creases, at times uncoordinated kitchen sink chaos, but great fun. 'Don't Wanna Be Free' working round familiar themes and riffs, simpler and cleaner of the two songs, features fetchingly louche, deep , vibrating bass while 'Every Day' skydives into wailing, driving punk and hard rock guitar solo before rambling off into jumble of solos. Both feature disconcertingly youthful strained, stressed, half spoken vocal which teeters on tightrope of tunefulness but manages to hang on.
Throwing Up- 'Mother Knows Best', single
Small voice stamps slyly beguiling , insistent foot, half chant, half rant, Annabella Lwin meets Sharleen Spiteri, at times faltering but persistently piercing wall of sound, driving punk rock, ramshackle drums, abused cymbals, punchy guitars and rollicking bass, rescued from runaway ruin by tight reins, mother might well know best but us girls will still scream and scream until we throw up.
King Salami and the Cumberland 3- 'Trubble Trubble'/ 'Jellyfish', single
Riotously raucous four piece, punk crossed with rock and roll rhythm and blues. Meat feast of familiar blues themes played at rollicking speeds and ear splitting level, enthusiastically elucidated vocals veering towards incoherence on 'Trubble Trubble' replaced by frantic maracas and shrieks on instrumental 'Jellyfish' ,tongue in cheek mayhem and you have to love the name.
Beat Seeking Missiles- 'Break My Fall' / 'Dr. Strangelove', single
Bearing ubiquitous loose label, 'garage', these missiles do actually sound like smoking explosion in a garage. Cross pollinating Kinks on speed with Kiss might veer alarmingly towards car crash than obscure subgenre but these seekers of Sixties beat just manage to stay on the road with wildly throbbing bass engine, skittering, screaming Hendrix guitar solos, pile driving drums, turbulent tambourine, steered by twisted psychedelic vocals, of few words, mostly the "... can't make it by myself..." variety, hanging on for dear life.
HARD AND VITAL - Eyeliner ruination, extreme seduction by Shredded Metal
Collision Process- 'Collision Process', EP
Ectoplasm pulled shrieking from Hell's maelstrom, voice of Edvard Munch's 'The Scream' expressed by Francis Bacon's bestial mutated mouth of Fury, wreaking revenge for crimes beyond human justice, a vocal to strike fear, disembodied, rasping, atonal growl beyond nodular distress, unrelenting, amplified opening vocal from Venom's 'In League With Satan', on steroids. Brutally battered drums, finger shredding guitar and tumbling bass, flay the Devil's steeds to foam flecked exhaustion raising havoc and mayhem, ridden by vocal sucked from black hole, exhaled from Lucifer's mouth.
Unremitting, remorseless onslaught of heavy, driving, energising death metal, stoking Hell's fire, 'Sleep Now Forever' and 'Breaking Point' barely draw breath for melody beyond tight guitar riffs and vocal sparring, 'Revelations' allows gasp of nimble bass, careering guitars, silver slivers of percussion and duetting voices to emerge from beautifully controlled bedlam, in melodic duel while 'Divide's' deceptively enticing 'Avalon' guitars of chagrin opening lures the unwary into more aural ruin, with respite, thankfully brief, in somewhat disconcerting 'pretty boy' hard rock harmonies before plunging Rush like guitar solos once again to the heart of devastatingly delicious discombobulation
Crash Mansion- 'Crash Mansion', EP
The track list, 'Devour Me', 'Fast and Furious' and 'Wild 'N' Wicked' could describe recent clandestine surrender to temptations of a cream bun but this offering, more bounteous spurt than unctuous ooze is even more wickedly delicious. Hard, driving, pumping black velvet metal, deep as dark night, soul plunging bass and drums, heart stabbing, wrenching guitars, tongue tangling vocal, impossible not to surrender in abandon to its deep throated seducement, however messy the aftermath.
Sworn To Oath- 'Leave You For Dead', EP
Natural ear wax remover, though such a severe shaking might demand restorative Mogadon. Master Blacksmiths of tight pounding sound, burnish Metal bright with sledgehammer guitar, comprehensively thrashed drums and cheese grater vocal, four blistering tracks, which oscillated my ossicles, dented my head, in a good way; may not leave you for dead but certainly shaken and stirred.
The Black Stars- 'Read My Lips/ Rockstar', single
Proper old school rock and roll thrusting sex, no foreplay, innovation or sentimentality "...I don't need no love... just want to fuck around... don't need no wine or roses... just want to go down..." but plenty of lecherous, licentious, lusty riff action, "...down and dirty in the back of a van...", rollicking ride with guys who know all the right moves and will definitely make your eyeliner run and your knees go weak, so "...baby you better hold on tight..."
IT'S NOT A MATTER OF SIZE - But it matters how you use it
This Wicked Tongue- 'Carry This', EP
Employing full palette of progressive tinted with hard rock, you would think this wall of integrated sound, metronomic high b.p.m. drums, needling into shriek guitars and frantically racing bass would require vocal juggernaut to punch a hole, yet Tina V's fragile, tiny but mighty, lyrical, stretched, rhythmic vocal, percussively rips shreds through scenic backdrop, with deceptive ease, gentle yet persuasive, persistently full tilt. Tight and precisely delivered fist of steel in melodic velvet glove, 'Carry This' and '22' career along similar Rush like tracks, while 'Creature' takes brief detour, clip clopping bass into more menacing backstreet, taking on touch of Siouxie.
STARTING TO DROOP - More unctuous ooze than bountiful spurt
Underclass- 'Beat Your Fist', single
Short, nearly sweet, in an Aerosmith, Guns N' Roses way, half anthem of stomping drums, shredded guitar and impassioned, but not quite hitting the edge of reason, vocals, requiring good hook to yank it up by the collar, fizzling out in Sci-Fi synth shimmer, fuse lit too late for fireworks.
Zenon- 'Can't Breathe', single
Classic soft rock of the Robert Palmer/Bryan Adams variety, exemplary musicianship and very personable vocal with characteristic lyrical and musical metaphors you would expect plus cheekily incalcitrant keyboard which goes off on a refreshing idiosyncratic whim of its own.
TANGLED AND TONGUE TIED - Lost in translation but worth a taste
Reach For The Lasers- 'Audio. Ignition', EP
Having previously reviewed the single from this EP, 'Some Settings May Produce Noise', as "Speeded up eighties electro fused with high energy rock, Soft Cell, Human League and Tears for Fears crushed down, reconstructed and super injected", my mind, enamoured of electronica, old, new, reconstructed, tongue in cheek, was torn, predisposed to a love which now stands tainted, feeling like a fool. The five songs on this EP, though earnest in adoration and attention to period features, shrill synths, drum machine, voxed, vocoded, oscillated, somehow manages to batter, bludgeon, trammel an esoteric, evocative genre into heavy handed, featureless mimicry, laboured too far, fun for one song, lost in translation, five songs later. However, inspiration is there, glimpsed in 'Take The Blame' and 'Breakout', which, at times, manages to breakout with innovative use of early experimental electronic sounds, cascading drums , hint of wail and then, as song and EP fades out, tantalising flash of glorious perforated grungy synth creak, leading me on, intrigue enough to keep me listening.
My Talking Pua- 'My Talking Pua', EP
Rather like my inept attempts at taming spaghetti this EP writhes, inelegantly unravels in doleful, rambling tangle of despondent, half spoken, meanderingly improvised breathy, accented vocal, Banshee Bjork without umami. Heston Blumenthal style musical Bolognese does little to add savour, worthy but sounding contrived ,disconnected, swinging wildly between convoluted Italian experimental, melancholic grunge, 'When You Were Your Murderess', 'Victor de L'Aveyron' ,'The Housemaid' and 'Stilettos', spiked with handfuls of thrash metal, 'Love Ends' and 'My Talking Pick Up Artist', garnished with spacey, echoed vocal foam. Flavours of individual songs tend to merge into one but despite derogatory words, essence of intrigue lingers, drawing me back to re taste marmite tongue tingle which lurks somewhere in the hotchpotch.
Centre Excuse- 'Don't Let Go', single
Throbbing electro rocky pop with eighties feel, determined, driving drums, squealing synth, space age sound effects, tensioned vocal, fast bowls along pastiche path but fails to fall wicket of inspiration, not quite a googly but the view's nice.
Dimitris Kyriakidis- 'Air- Hunt', single
Four piece, indulgent instrumental with heavy cinematic overtones featuring progression of slightly disparate solos; heavy rock virtuosic guitar; tight but hardly Bonham drums; hesitantly hovering on the edge of tunefulness jazzy bass; and prog rock, unfortunately quite a bit like Wakeman, keyboard; skilful ,erring on arrogant but sometimes you just have to pucker that embouchure and blow your own trumpet.
ATOMIC EXPLORATION - Capturing electrons, conjuring electronic brews
Pinkunoizu- 'PEEP', EP
The name Pinkunoizu, Japanese for 'pink noise' both raised my hopes and put me on guard. Without going into technicalities about octaves and energy levels which find me flummoxed, 'pink noise', sounds like ocean waves or buzz of an empty television station, present in all aspects of existence from heart beat to stellar electromagnetic radiation, to synthesiser noise circuits, 'pink noise' is universally pervasive and persuadable. Having originally made a gustatory Freudian slip, misreading the word as Italian Pinzimonio, literally to 'pinch' and 'marry', in this case an assortment of raw vegetables with olive oil dip and salt, my juices were flowing in anticipation of novel, food related genre.
Actually either word could be used to describe this gathering of musicians who sculpt 'pink noise' clay into filmic scenery of experimental, electronically manipulated soundscapes, pinching , borrowing, smorgasbord of musical references, sprinkled with their own seasoning. In both cases it is quality of ingredients and skill of the artist which determines whether the dish is scintillating or sorrowful, pleasure or pretension, hence anticipation tempered with trepidation preceded my tasting. There is no doubt Pinkunoizu's ingredients and skills are exemplary, like sushi, perfectly formed, precisely considered but scrap of sacrificial lamb to god of introspective pretention slightly taints sushi sparkle, dish of wonderment, beautifully presented and though not soul food of Kate Bush or Cocteau Twins, an interesting development in highly descriptive experimental music, its musical coloration lifting it from soporific to intriguing.
'Time Is Like A Melody'; sleigh bells skeltering over virgin snow into which deep bass sinks footsteps, gathering snowflakes into hypnotic , looping mantra of chanting voices and Asian inspired contorted strings, swirling, whirling, chasing this mortal coil, gathering in time's notes.
'Everything Is Broken Or Stolen' twinkles in through arched window of life landing in alien territory where innocent nursery rhymes and fairground carousels are perverted, twisted to increasingly frenzied, un syncopated tick tock of Dali's pendulous melting clocks, frantically collecting, confusing, contorting, seeking signals in ether, from ethereal voices, to construct meaning from gathering miasma of meaningless mind fog, until time winds down to final tock.
'Dairy Queen' starts with deep thrill of Bowie's 'Warszawa' but despite death toll of kettle drum, drone of organ and disconsolate vocal drenched in misery, fails to retain its utter desolation or sense of purpose , bewitched, inveigled by distant pan pipes, into white light of shimmering synth, beamed onto alien craft for glorious Technicolor mind sweep of earth's cultures via Chinese bowed strings and rice field chants, Malinese xylophone, wooden flutes and cowbells with prog rock interlude which, even at eleven minutes, this track cannot manage to harmonise into unified whole but then the whole of the universe and beyond is a tall order.
SAFX- 'BAM', single
Few pronunciations which could make "BAM!", with its 'wham, bam, thank you mam' connotations, musically engaging and its repetition, as sole lyrical content, unaffected, but Marianne Elise's charmingly accented rendition imparts cool class to this un-presuming word, playing with pretention in a way that only the French can, electro punked Patti Smith, barked, worried round short snatched musical phrases, angsty, churning guitars, maudlin bass and pounding drums. Reminiscent of Ladytron, this short introduction to SAFX inspired me to listen to another sampler track, 'Fast', which has makings of pure beauty in simple melody, clean, touching vocal used as instrument in rhythmic, staccato, repeated phrases over sparse yet apposite electro and instrumental backdrop, harmony unfortunately disrupted by distractingly unsubtle percussive elements but with classic potential, one to listen out for.
Trojan Horse Rotovator- 'The Shining', EP
Musical representation of Klingon Fleet, menacing, electronic doom gloom, pounded scrap metal assimilation of styles, lacking Borg sophistication and nowhere near as effective as Warszawer, my favourite piece of melancholic electronica, sledge hammer to its mind meld but with certain dark magnetic powers of its own.
Megalofactories', manned by chanting harbingers of terror, stab, jab, serrate, warp, batter and mutate percussion, sampled strings and heavy rock guitar into perforated white noise frenzy, winding down drained; 'Inside The Rotovator' sinister, shrieking death metal drone, intergalactic insect swarm, steel mandibles shredding tortured souls in black hole of star ship hold; 'Room 101', enter here if you dare, hell's kitchen of bent, abused pots and pans, mutated Bryan Ferry stirs cauldron of '80's electro and twisted early Roxy, conjuring lost souls in bell toll of warped synths and panic inducing, racing drums while 'The Limbo Damnation's' darkly shimmering, whining , screeching, dark star synth, casts deathly pall, smothers, stifles, wreaks destruction in death chant and knell, civilisations chained, stumbling into abyss, evaporated, effectively alarming, bloodcurdling electronica.
Simian Ghost- 'Bicycle Theme', single
Sparkles like sun on virtual tropical ocean of warm electronic sounds from another era, dirty synth, drum machine, bell like effects, sprinkled with fantasy shimmer, soothed by caged computer generated birdsong to echoed "oooh and aaahh" wonderment. However, everything that glitters is not gold, more Christmas bauble, well meant but overindulgent soporific lull more likely to induce trauma than chill, surfeit of sweetness, electro saccharine.
THIS IS NOT A LOVE SONG (except it is) - My beautiful mistake
October Sky- 'Hit the Ground', (acoustic version from album)
My 'pity this is not a single' lament to 2011
I was supposed to be reviewing the single version of 'Hit the Ground' but having been sent an untagged 13 track CD listing only seven songs on its cover, I am entirely uncertain what I have reviewed except, it is track 5 from album "Hell Isn't My Home" and subsequent internet exploration reveals track 6 as the actual single.
From melodic and lyrical comparisons, the two and half minute song I fell in love with seems to be an acoustic version, from which, prior to denouement, I had concluded the band's press release did them great disservice, describing their music as "alternating between frenzied rock and ambient alternative" but subsequently listening to the actual single, which takes this gem and bludgeons it with U2, a band which despite my best efforts I find tedious and pretentious, I am not so sure. Fearing to tarnish my vision further, I only gathered enough courage to flick through the album, which though full of stunning melodies tends towards 'wail rock', a genre I find unsettling, extensive sentimental wallowing muddying clear waters. However, I cannot get the imposter out of my head, so perversely, though I can see no way of obtaining it without purchasing the whole album, this beautiful mistake is my favourite non single lament to 2011, prince turned to frog, swan to ugly duck, in ignorance of its own message; "....I can't hear my voice...when I scream...if only you know how beautiful you could be....", whisper of this song spoke perfectly clearly without need to shout.
Acoustic version of ''Hit the Ground', track 5 on album:
Definitely not "frenzied rock", "ambient alternative" is altogether too flippant categorisation for rare and beautiful simplicity which shines this emotional slip of a song into significance far beyond background chill ambience.
Stunningly simple, intensely sorrowful piano introduction pricks chagrin, poignancy taken up by introverted, maudlin male vocal, weeping distress in overarching counterpoint "...even if I... scream for help...", stretching its own harmonically interdependent pattern over pinpricks of desolation, repeated motif, inter-tangled in the round, on piano and picked electric guitar, to sorrowful shake of tambourine and judgemental finger click.
There is nothing more to this song and though not hitting Radiohead's tortured emotional profundity, steps reverentially in their sacred footsteps, few notes which speak spine tingling volumes with perfect unembellished clarity, though given my misapprehension, possibly a fortuitous anomaly, which thankfully didn't hit the ground of edit room floor.

Hawaiian Airlines could join one of the global airline alliance in future, but it believes that its network relationships with other carriers is serving it well.
Chief executive Mark Dunkerley says the airline periodically looks at large alliances such as Star Alliance, Oneworld and SkyTeam, but has found bilateral relationships with other airlines to work best for it at this point in time.
"We have concluded that forming bilateral links suits us best, but it is a dynamic industry and that may change," he says.
Dunkerley says the airline has strong relationships with a number of carriers in the Asia-Pacific region, where it has been expanding its network to take advantage of a growing interest in Hawaii as a holiday destination.
"We have a terrific relationship with ANA [All Nippon Airways] in Japan, we work with Korean Air in Korea, and in Australia we have a terrific relationship with Virgin Australia," he says.
The airline recently implemented an interline arrangement with Air China to feed passengers travelling from Chinese destinations to its services to Honolulu via Seoul.
Hawaiian also has relationships with a number of US carriers, including Delta Air Lines, United Airlines and American Airlines, which codeshare on its inter-island routes. In November, the carrier also began codesharing on some Virgin America services.
"We're very happy with the strategy that we have pursued, and I am not ruling out that we would consider joining an alliance in the future, it's just not right for us today," says Dunkerley.

|Changes in the Land: William Cronon
Copyright 1999 Adam Barnhart. All Rights Reserved. Fair use of this document.In his book, Changes in the Land, William Cronon explores the relationship between the European and indigenous populations and local ecologies between 1620 and 1800. As he states at the outset of the book:
My thesis is simple: the shift from Indian to European dominance in New England entailed important changes -- well known to historians -- in the ways these people organized their lives, but it also involved fundamental reorganizations -- less well-known to historians -- in the region's plant and animal communities.(vii)Cronon's approach involves an investigation not only of the role a rapidly changing human population played in the altering of the ecology of New England, but the impact that ecology had on the local populations through time. By augmenting a traditional historical study with tools from anthropology and the biological sciences, Cronon develops a unique and sophisticated analysis of the period.
With an emphasis on their centrality to the understanding of the changes taking place in local ecosystems, Cronon describes relationships between Indian and European groups, with particular interest in the variety of responses different European groups met with from different indigenous populations. Cronon underscores the importance of viewing these contacts not as being wholly representative of "European" or "Indian" populations, but as discrete meetings with their own situational patterns of interaction, though they may have historical precedents. In this sense, the smaller colonial towns and Native American groups parallel the distributed nature of ecosystems and microclimates.
Working within these smaller ecosystems, the Indians of precolonial New England subsisted off the land in a migratory fashion. Cronon distinguishes between the Indians of northern New England, who relied almost exclusively on hunting and fishing in response to an often fairly inhospitable climate and those of southern New England, who relied on agriculture for half to two-thirds of their diet.(42) Through the use of small, controlled burning of the forest, movement between different areas of food sources through the year, low population densities (particularly in northern New England), and the use of multicrop agriculture (including nitrogen-fixing beans) among southern Indians, the impact of the human population on local ecosystems was fairly small and consistent.
This impact changed at an accelerating rate upon the arrival of Europeans. To accommodate the greater crop and livestock stores for commerce and safety against harsh winters, the Europeans cleared a large percentage of the local forest and domesticated animals more impactful on the local ecosystems. The new livestock and expanded European population helped to harbor disease epidemics which ravaged the local population, sometimes eliminating entire villages.(86) The differences in notions of property rights came, with an increasingly powerful European population, to be settled to the exclusion of the native populations, forcing them to work with the European system of social organization which restricted patterns of migratory subsistence to smaller areas with greatly reduced animal and food stock.
At the same time, the shape and content of the land was being radically reordered by the human population, the land, itself, changed patterns of behavior and organization for both the European and Indian populations. From its original role in ordering the precolonial Indians' hunting, fishing, and agricultural endeavors by season and topology, the deforestation of the land limited and changed the use of wood. Fencing, which became an important agricultural and legal tool, was later done with stone, to limit the use of and deal with the limitations of the available wood. Perhaps most importantly, decreasing animal populations and soil fertility led to an expansion of occupied land by the European land, to accommodate agricultural and commercial needs.
Changes in the Land is a balanced and nuanced work, detailing the importance of ecology, both as a dynamic entity, shaped by human action, and as a focus of shaping how populations organize themselves. Cronon's book is most insightful in addressing these issues in an imaginative and interdisciplinary manner that extends the reach of our understanding of the subject.

Hi everyone,
How are the new Gen 13 issues? I just heard about them a few month ago an tried to purchase the first issues, but its hard to find a vendor in Germany selling them. Last week I found a merchant, but the prices are dizzying high. (15€ ore more per issues, that are more than 20$) But I am a fan and if the comic is worth the price I'll pay it. So tell me the new comic is good. ;)

Up until now I had only experienced the beach and campus life of Australia. On this past Friday the school got a bus and took some students to Kondalilla Falls. The trip was amazing!
The falls are located about an hour hike down a valley into the rainforest. It was very humid but so worth it. There were several smaller falls along the walk that made the large falls even more spectacular. Once we got to the bottom we hiked back up to a swimming hole at the top. The water was freezing and the hole was so deep. A boy decided to climb up the side hill of a smaller falls and just jumped off a twenty five foot ledge. I was shocked. How did he know it was deep enough? All of a sudden my active adventure side was in conflict with my cautious side. Some of the other guys I was with were set that they too had to do jump. I said I would walk up and take pictures but not jump. I knew deep down that was a lie.
The first jump I jumped from a lower ledge. It was so exciting and I'm so proud of myself for making all of my experience there. I knew I would have regretted not jumping. The second trip up I was much more afraid to jump from the tall ledge. It took three; one, two, no I can't counts, to finally jump. All five students from BW did the jump. Only seven people did it out of a trip of about 40 people. We had a blast. I'm loving my time here still even though classes started on Monday. My next blog will be about my first week of classes!

atypical booting problem - PMU/PRAM reset no good, won't boot off disc, no screen
View Single Post
Posts: n/a
12" PB, 1GHz, 512MB RAM, OSX.3
my computer isn't starting up or even trying to boot and none of the standard resets seem to help. i do not think it the the HDD, rather, i think it is the power management unit:
i have tried resetting the pram (multiple times), resetting the pmu (multiple times), and tried booting off the system disc but it doesn't even try. in fact, if i do a PRAM reset, i don't get a nice mac "gong" but an annoying "beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep" and a rapidly flashing sleep light. what does THAT mean!?!
i have had a couple episodes in the past where my computer was very stubborn to wake up - or it was stubborn in that it didn't go to sleep all the way. i would close the lid and the screen would turn off (most of these times) but the HD and cpu were still cranking away. i would return in a couple hours to find my computer smoking hot because i left it on my bed (insulation).
now when i attempt to turn it on, it goes through a standard hardware check; where the disc drive and HDD give a quick whir, and the startup chime dongs, but the screen doesn't come on and the cooling fan blasts like crazy - which is wrong because the computer is ice cold. and the HDD and disc drives are conspicuously silent (after the mac chime).
HDD usually give different kinds of signals - and usually time. i don't think my hdd is even getting signals to boot.
i thought maybe the PRAM battery needs to be replaced but then i read on apples website that all ibook G4s and 12" powerbooks don't have batteries, rather a capacitor that can keep the clock going for 20 seconds. i have unplugged it and pulled the battery for a couple hours in effort to drain the capacitor and any other power storage device, but that didn't work either.
i also read that the 12" powerbook is unique from the 15" PB in that it doesn't have a separate PMU board, rather everything is on the logic board (analogous to mother board).
i am about to look for used replacement logic boards (i am attached to this old horse), but before i do are there any other key combination, clever resets that i can try?
thank you in advance

Mine Fire Research Video
This is a animation of the movement of the coal fire from Centralia, Pa., from 1962 to 2009. The data used to produce this map was collected from bore hole data and aerial thermal infrared imagery. Professor Elick collected this remotely sensed data and integrated it into a map composed of layers. It shows how the fire location has changed over time, and it shows how the fire is moving in the subsurface toward the west.
