RAZORCAKE (USA) On Shall Enter First, Torino, Italy’s The Lame channels the dark and stormy atmosphere of the Lost Sounds’ Memphis Is Dead album and then brilliantly laces it with the rockabilly swagger of The Cramps. Co-ed vocalists bring to mind the blues-inspired madness of Boss Hog, especially on the song “Down in the Valley.” Tim Kerr’s always amazing cover art, as well as a beautifully printed dust sleeve, deserve mention and help round out an already enjoyable record. Grazie, The Lame! (JE)

SUNDAY EXPERIENCE (UK) Scalding rock-a-hula from Torino based garage freaks Lame whose latest full length platter ‘the lame shall enter first’ comes stamped on heavy duty gold wax and promises to be a groove packing whole heap of bad boogie with ‘oracle’ charging out the traps guided by the spirit of Meek acolytes Johnny Kidd and the Pirates and rippled in the prairie gunning cow punk of an as were sonic mind melt between mojo Nixon and the violent femmes as re-imagined by the Hentchmen

RUMORE (IT) Sca Non c’avrei scommesso un soldo bucato che fossero italiani. In effetti la batterista è colombiana ma gli altri due sono italianissimi, sabaudi per la precisione, già noti alle forze del disordine r’n’r. Alle chitarre Stefano Isaia dei Movie Star Junkies e l’ex Cave Dogs e Two Bo’s Maniacs Massimo Scocca, che esteticamente è sempre più il Bob Mould italiano innamorato di Flannery O’Connor. Il loro disco d’esordio ha un peso specifico enorme. Ferraglia e feedback cingono in un caldo abbraccio bagliori post-punk e country-garage scuro ma luminosissimo, come nell’esplosione di Cold Night. L’intreccio delle voci maschile e femminile in Down in the Valley riattualizza la fu intimità dei Sonic Youth ubriachi di blues-punk a bassa gradazione. Un mio amico ultras ripeteva sempre: “Basta lame, basta infami”. Io oggi, da vecchio rocker, mi sento di rispondergli: “Ancora Lame, ancora r’n’r infame”. (MG)

Casbah (FRANCE) L’Italie. Si le pays est connu pour ses pâtes, il l’est aussi pour ses soupes : il suffit de se balader un peu dans la botte pour se prendre des louches de Drupi, d’Eros Ramazzotti, d’Umberto Tozzi et autres Zucchero aussi dégoulinants qu’une assiette de mauvaises bolognaises. N’en déplaise aux ritals, force est de constater qu’au premier abord l’Italie ne se caractérise pas par une attitude rock’n’roll. Dieu soit loué, on a trouvé un peu de quoi se rassasier du côté de Florence, Milan, Rome et surtout Turin, la ville always on the move. A la simple évocation de la capitale piémontaise, notre cerveau sectaire et étriqué pense Fiat et Juventus. Un héritage quasi parfait auquel on ajoutera désormais LAME.
LAME porte mal son nom, que l’on pourrait traduire par « boiteux », puisque le groupe a pondu l’un des meilleurs albums de 2015 dans la catégorie blues lo-fi punk. Sorti ce printemps chez Alien Snatch Records, passé un peu inaperçu, leur premier LP « The lame shall enter first » est une grosse tuerie parfaitement équilibrée de 10 titres imparables qui sentent le bar miteux, le garage crasseux et les coupe-gorge de mafieux. Les chiens ne faisant pas des chats, on retouve chez Lame du beau monde : Massimo Scocca, (guitare-harmonica) qui a joué dans des groupes garage dans les années 90s comme Cave Dogs et Two Bo’s Maniacs, la batteuse colombienne Maria Mallol Moya (excellente en live), et Stefano Isaia (chant-guitare) issu des géniaux Movie Star Junkies. Evidemment, une fois l’identité déclinée, vous vous doutez bien que c’est loin d’être pourri. 10 titres donc. 10 titres qui bouclent et s’enchaînent, aussi limpides que de l’acqua della Madonna, un tracklisting parfait reflétant un univers écorché à vif, un brin nerveux où se mêlent déchéance et colère : la profondeur lancinante de Cold night, l’hymne obscur All is lost, l’intensité de la lonely ballad All the falling leaves, la rampante et sublime Down in the valley dont les riffs, les breaks, la voix de la batteuse, les notes d’harmonica en font le joyau de l’album, la bouffe-bitume Oracle, la reprise musclée des Talking Heads Road to nowhere ou la noirceur de l’envoûtante et inquiétante Axel : la décadence a un son. Il est boiteux et turinois. (LL)

DIG IT #64
Premier maxi pour le groupe italien Lame. Trio garage blues bruitiste comprenant Stefano des Movie Star Junkies à la gratte et au chant, la talentueuse Maria Mallol Moya à la batterie et au deuxième chant et l'expérimenté Massimo Scocca (ex-Two Bo's Maniacs) à la deuxième guitare, toute en freestyle vibratonique. Bel objet que The Lame Shall Enter First (un titre emprunté à la nouvelliste américaine Flannery O'Connor), puisque la pochette a été peinte par Tim Kerr (Jack O' Fire, Poison 13, Big Boys, Monkeywrench etc...) et le mastering assuré par Tim Warren, le boss de Crypt Rds. Musicalement on évolue entre blues torturé ("Haunt You Like An Owl"), ballades mélancoliques et noires ("Cold Night") et déflagrations noisy à la Hunches ("This Damn City")... Et y a même une reprise du "Road To Nowhere" des Talking Heads. Essai transformé, mes amis !

a modern love story
Format: Kindle
This book captured my attention from the first line. She has a way of making you feel the emotions, heartache, and even loving memories she shares. I literally remember stopping to tell my boyfriend I couldn't wait to have kids because of the way she described picking up her children from school and their innocent smiles as soon as they saw her. It's a tragedy and a love story, and a coming to her own all in one. Loved this book!

Memories Are Made of This
Format: Kindle
Belle Burden has overcome a weighty burden—pun intended! Strangers is a book of many colors. There is so much of the overcast gray of heartbreak and estrangement. There is plenty of the blue of heavy disappointment and grief. But happily for every reader, there are so many of the bright colors of happiness and fulfillment. The premise of this memoir has been well documented—a wealthy, privileged life led by a woman of means is interrupted by the abrupt departure of her husband for points unknown. Children remain—-lodged in some difficult ‘tween years. Central is the woman who just happens to be made of pretty stern stuff as it turns out and who is a brilliant writer. Belle Burden is the belle of her own tale. She shares it all with the reader in un-put-down-able prose, sparing nothing, We are richer for reading Belle Burden’s beautifully crafted memoir. The warm glow of hope is there for all to share. Well done!

Surprisingly Unputdownable
Format: Kindle
I read saw several reviews that said this book wasn’t really about anything, and they were right. There was no big drama, no fighting, no headline news. But there was something in the writing that felt profound and I couldn’t stop reading. And I’m glad I didn’t. In the end for me, this was a story about a marriage, and choices that were made and the strength of a woman who wouldn’t be silent, and the writing that brought so much emotion with it that I wound up feeling all of it so deeply. And when a writer can create those feelings in me, then her book was definitely worth reading. I highly recommend this book - I don’t think you’ll regret the time you spend in its pages. I know I didn’t.

Slightly Interesting
Format: Kindle
First, I think Belle is a great writer. There was a lot of effort put into making this a very readable book. I also think that what happened to her really was terrible. Her husband 100% was wrong in what he did to her with the affair and his disappearance. Ultimately, her marriage prior to the betrayal seemed very superficial. She acknowledges that she chose the comforts of wealth over a close relationship. She had a part time husband/father and honestly it's not surprising that he left. He was barely there to begin. Her absolute terror in imagining that she would drop down from the top 0.1% down to around the top 1% was not the compelling tragedy that she seems to think it is. Her bemoaning of the loss of ultra luxuries tended to diminish the emotional toll of her plight. The book is laced through with the eventual end that her husband is going to take his assets and half of hers, but it never happens. I think she wants to relate the uncertainty and fear that she had, but it comes off as fake panic. In the end, it's a sad story, but it was very predictable. It's a story about a woman who outsourced her responsibilities, who doesn't know how to operate without extreme wealth, and who shudders at the prospect of having to work a job. It was a short book, but 3 times longer than necessary.
