Club roundup: Friday night fills up with music
madison.com – Jan 16, 2008
JAN 16 2008 – 11:29 AM Club roundup: Friday night fills up with music JHN WIEDENHEFT I don 't know if it 's in anticipation of a big pro football weekend or not but there are a glut of shows worth seeing on Friday night in Madison clubs. It 's good news for fans of football and live music. The only wrinkle is that we can 't attend all of shows at once. Madison 's Those Poor Bastards are just returning from a tour with Hank Williams III that was unexpectedly shortened by sickness. In addition to repeatedly praising Those Poor Bastards and taking them on tour Williams recorded their more-than-adrenaline-fueled romp "Pills I Took " for his 2006 CD "Straight to Hell… Billed as the "Black Ice Tour " six of the area 's best metal bands will be playing riffs and solos fast enough to melt steel on Friday at the Klinic 520 S. Harsh Reality Hebron USDF Def-Con Lying Still and Silence All perform. Punk is the order of the day at Glass Nickel Pizza 2916 Atwood Ave.

Bilic: ‘I’m under far more pressure than Capello’
Belfast Telegraph – Jan 16, 2008
r over 130 times less than the £6. 5m Fabio Capello will average over his contract. Not that it seems to bother Bilic who is a man apart in modern European football: a lawyer heavy-metal music fan chain smoker and the manager who wore a woolly hat on the touchline at Wembley while Steve McClaren sought the protection of his umbrella. It may well be Bilic whom Capello faces in his second World Cup qualifier on 10 September but it is more likely that this singular talent will be recruited by a Premier League club after Euro 2008. If anyone deserves the perks of Premier League wages it is the man who beat England twice in Euro 2008 qualifying. Bilic 39 was in Zagreb on Monday to agree the World Cup qualifying fixtures with Capello and the Football Association. Afterwards he talked about a remarkable 18 months how he beat England and why there will always be more pressure on a Croatian managing Croatia than an Italian managing England.

Rock music to plug your ears to

But let’s be honest: Things have changed. If parents are still going to freak over little Johnny listening to The Jonas Brothers they probably have bigger problems than little Johnny listening to The Jonas Brothers. But while rock music by and large has made a move toward more theatrical and arguably “safe” aesthetics some still bravely practice the past. Here are four records from 2007 that prove just that. Coliseum “No Salvation”Remember when Anthrax was more than just a substance that could kill you? Probably not but don’t worry neither do Coliseum. But while “No Salvation” may tremble and bleed with the kind of 100 MPH attack of speed metal perfected by bands like Anthrax and Metallica in the ’80s these boys clearly took some notes and then promptly started re-writing the book. Tunes like the punishing “Seven Cities” carry on the speed metal torch but hold high their influences of metal-core heroes like Converge… Coliseum “No Salvation”Remember when Anthrax was more than just a substance that could kill you? Probably not but don’t worry neither do Coliseum. But while “No Salvation” may tremble and bleed with the kind of 100 MPH attack of speed metal perfected by bands like Anthrax and Metallica in the ’80s these boys clearly took some notes and then promptly started re-writing the book. Tunes like the punishing “Seven Cities” carry on the speed metal torch but hold high their influences of metal-core heroes like Converge. But what really gets the jaw dropping and ears pounding are cuts like the epic “Profetas” which employs both the urgency and ire of The Refused while crafting a metal riff so sharp it’d scare Black Sabbath. Pissed Jeans “Hope for Men”If music were manners Pissed Jeans possesses all the class of a schizophrenic off his meds. Screeching writhing guitars slam face first into walls of static and apocalyptic bass distortion. Buzz saw crafted riffs shred gruffly through droning drugged-out madness (“Scrapbooking”).
