WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT? That's Kido Natsuki on guitar if I'm not mistaken. And you're right, that is Tatsuya Yoshida in the second picture too. Edit: If I'm right, I seem to remember hearing that One Shot and Korekyojin were doing a show together, so I'm guessing the guy facing away from the camera in the white shirt in the second shot is Korekyojin's bassist Nasuno Mitsuru. That would have been an amazing show, I'm sure. Edited by SaltyJon - September 04 2010 at 17:28 |

Check out the new (or rather old...) Shub Niggurath album from last year. OK, it is their debut demo released on CD, but I think it is a great album nevertheless. Introducion it is called.

Seems like One Shot are already giving concerts with Bruno on keyboards. They accompanied Magma in the Japanese tour. I wonder whether Bruno's replacement of Manu Borghi means a change in sounds. Manu played a lot of synths, while I only know Bruno playing electric piano for Magma.
Also, who's this Japanese guitarist that joined One Shot on stage? Maybe Jon knows him.  He looks bad-ass. Maybe it was a jam-session with Koenjihyakkei? The guy from the left in the picture bellow looks like the drummer from KH.  Edited by harmonium.ro - August 17 2010 at 08:35 |

Nice video from Magma's very recent Japanese tour:
The first two minutes are Japanese TV studio chat. From here (the comments are interesting, too). Boy, do I love this band or what. Hearing Stella's singing over the sweet melody of Felicite Thosz instantly brought tears to my eyes (not a metaphor). It's been 5 months already since I last seen them, way too much for such an addiction  Edited by harmonium.ro - August 17 2010 at 08:22 |

Syz ... this could be a problem. I think that we should categorize this better. They can have the babes and the chicks in the other kiddie sub-genres! .... and we get all the real women! And true appreciators of music too!

Have to admit that I never thought of Magma as not accessible.
Nobody said that Carl Orff (Carmina Burana specially) was not accessible either.
I always gave music it's fair audience and court. By that I mean, listen to it on its on, not with something else in mind. The end result is an experience. Magma, for me, is ALL about experience and a lot less about "Zeuhl" or anything else. And the choral orchestration of a lot of that work is amazing to say the least and I am not sure that there even exist enough vocalists that would even try that!
And it is a massive credit that they can still do it and have you get up off your seat at the end ... and all you can say is ... WOW ... you simply will never see anything in music, so different, so well done, and so inspiring as an evening of this. But if your mind is set that you have to hear something or other, then Magma is not for you. You don't come to any zeuhl (god what a term!) with preconceived notions since the majority of it is not designed in conventional music idioms at all. And these folks know it!
I remember the very first time I heard it - around 1974. I had known Carmina Burana for 10 years already, so when I heard it, done with a guitar, drums and bass ... I went ... wow ... that is far out! For me, unlike most here, it was a come alive of a musical tradition into the modern age ... our generation has really done it! And explored and expanded the music into levels that are very important, and need to be better explained and understood so we can validate its history!

It's a well established fact that Zeuhl makes you a total babe magnet. It's only natural for there to be a little jealousy from some of the other sub genres.

Either 2010 or early 2011 is what Alain told me when I emailed him about a couple other titles on the label. Either way, I'm really excited about this one.

Then it's fortunate that our enjoyment isn't predicated on your understanding. |

I don't exactly understand why people like this genre...and it's tough to throw an entire genre under the bus, but it seems to be a genre of music for times you only kind of want to listen to music.
