Cave has a long association with film, having appeared in
'Wings Of Desire', 'Johnny Suede' and 'Ghosts Of The Civil
Dead'. His early drafts for the latter were discarded when
the film changed course to include elements of the American
private prison system. His macabre novel 'And The Ass Saw
The Angel' was intended as a film script but, again "it got
abandoned pretty early on and I re-wrote it as a novel," he
tells me. Likewise his script for 'Gladiator 2' didn't make
it, but now he's finally succeeded, with 'The Proposition',
directed by long-term collaborator John Hillcoat...
The
Presets Beams Modular/UMG
The
Presets are a rare beast: in their short career they've managed
to balance indie credibility with a fresh and accessible sound.
They have the smarts and the goods to follow in the footsteps
of Infusion out of the club and into your living room. And
now they present to you their debut release, 'Beams'.
Opening with the whacked out synth sounds of Steamworks,
they pull no punches in rolling out track after track of acid-washed
electro-funk, mixed with elements of rock, dance and even
soul...
The
dB Magazine Readers Awards (or, as we acronymically know
it as, the dBras) is happening again and it's your chance to
let us know what local talent has floated your rock'n'roll boat
over the past 12 months - and considering that it's been what
many consider to be the raddest year for Adelaide music in a
good long time, we expect to see some enthusiastic nominations
happening.
Nominate your favourite bands, solo artists, DJs, releases,
events, venues etc now!!
Not fit to print!! Or at least, it wouldn't fit in the print version of
dB magazine. So this is the only place you'll get to read what
Kinski, Wednesday 13 and Taxiride had to say to us...
We're giving stuff away! And it's not just because we love you, it's because Frenzor™'s
holding us to it and could fry us all in a moment.
And because we love you... STOP PRESS: We have a second online frenzy for this issue.
