Cultural Stimuli in CHI
Issue 77: rawk-solid flavor
Those who survived the sonic Rolfing at last week's Mogwai concert shouldn't take out their earplugs just yet — the assault on tympanic membranes throughout the city continues this week thanks to a number of aurally stimulating events. Things start out innocently enough with the avant-garde ohm series at the Cultural Center and the Third Coast Festival's civilized Podcast Listening Room, but the volume starts to dial up when Thunderbirds Are Now!, the Narrator, and the Plastic Constellations storm the Beat Kitchen's stage and the Neo-Futurists lob a live one with their most recent show, A Child's History of Bombing. Not to be outdone, Chicago's most rockingest ladies talk back at a discussion at the Harold Washington Library and the Goodman celebrates native son and famously potty-mouthed miscreant David Mamet with a festival dedicated to his abrasive plays. Louden up now, and spread it...

You can usually find Joe Bryl behind the booking desk at Sonotheque, where, as club manager, Bryl's in charge of bringing in eclectic, up-and-coming talent. The Cultural Center has taken notice of Bryl's curatorial skills and enlisted him to organize "ohm," a series highlighting new media in audio, visual, and performing arts. This evening, Bryl pulls from his vast Rolodex to present Musical Enchantments & Wondrous Sounds, in which long-lost classic films The Teddy Bears (1907), The Wonderful World of Oz (1910), and The Patchwork Girl of Oz (1914) are scored live with acoustic harp, keyboards, and laptop electronics. Given Bryl's reputation at Sonotheque, tonight should be avant-garde nirvana. (VG)

Silly, concise, and often brilliant discourses on the Chicago art scene; quirky, poignant soliloquies; inspired voices of a national youth-radio movement: welcome to the new frontier of Podcasting. The Third Coast Festival kicks off its 2006 Listening Room series with an evening of discussion on this new audio craze. Listen to a variety of Podcasts, get pointers on starting your own, and pick the brains of local producers Bad At Sports and national 'casters Catalogue of Ships, PRX, and YouthCast. Hurry, boys and girls, before the medium slips, like radio and TV, from plebeian hands into fat corporate bellies. (PAG)

Thunderbirds Are Now! w/ Rahim and Call Me Lightning
|
|
Detroit lends us yet another great punk band who infuse their Motor
City aggression with just the right balance of keyboards, drums,
guitars, vocals, and whiskey. Their most recent (and hilariously
titled) album, Justamustache, carries a one-two punch, its
jagged post-punk guitars and ultra-catchy melodies ideal for both
rocking the night away and dancing your face off. Thunderbirds Are
Now! demonstrate why the exclamation point in their name isn't just
hipster fun with punctuation. Sedated punksters Rahim and hardcore
Milwaukee trio Call Me Lightning open. (MH)

The latest Neo-Futurist production, A Child's History of Bombing, takes aim at the history of all things explosive. Based on founding director Greg Allen's interviews with his uncle, a chemist in the Manhattan Project, this multimedia, interactive documentary covers our battle-scarred Earth from Hiroshima to the Bikini Atoll to Iraq. Generally, the production doesn't hide its pacifist political agenda; the most nuanced parts of the play come directly from the Manhattan Project chemist, as he either justifies or refuses to acknowledge the tremendous ramifications of his work. (CB)
Note: This play continues through Sat 3.11 (Thur-Sun: 8pm).

Event Info |
|
|
Tarkovsky's debut film, My Name Is Ivan, immediately established the director as among the most innovative and emotive in Russian cinema. And although he went on to helm better-known art flicks including the stilted sci-fi film Solaris (1972) and epic Andrei Rublev (1969), this film set the template. My Name Is Ivan follows a young, traumatized boy who becomes a World War II spy after his village and family are destroyed by the Nazis. The shot composition and sound editing are brilliant, making this pensive reflection on the Soviet era all the more poignant. The real draw, however, is central actor Nikolai Burlyaev, whose haunting performance lingers long after the credits roll. (FG)

Whether or not critics agree that Of Montreal's mastermind Kevin Barnes is a genius, only the most hardened of them could sit through a couple of the band's swooping harmonies and gleefully experimental melodies without feeling a tad euphoric. Emerging from the Elephant Six universe (the collective best known for Neutral Milk Hotel and Olivia Tremor Control), this band from Athens, GA, is on tour to promote their latest album, The Sunlandic Twins — the auditory equivalent of a box of Day-Glo bouncy balls dropped from a very high place: all electronically-tinged joy and irrepressible energy.

Unknown White Male
|
|
One day in July, Doug Bruce took the subway to Coney Island. Two days
later, he no longer knew who he was; he'd developed retrograde
amnesia, a very real result of brain trauma that erases all memory of events prior to the accident. Unfolding in dreamlike fashion,
Unknown White Male, a documentary by Bruce's friend Rupert
Murray, takes its audience inside the mind of someone experiencing the
world for the first time. If you've always wanted a clean slate
à la Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, this film may change your mind (pun intended). (MS)

Brian Costello: The Enchanters vs Sprawlburg Springs
|
|
In between hosting Empty Bottle's live comedy show "The Brian Costello Show with Brian Costello," teaching creative writing at Columbia College, and practicing with his band the Functional Blackouts, Chicago's favorite man-about-town Brian Costello somehow found time to write a book. Costello's debut novel, The Enchanters vs Sprawlburg Springs, tells the whimsical story of Shaquille, a part-time squid-cutter who plays drums for fictional punk band the Enchanters, making his way in his dreaded hometown, Sprawlburg Springs. It's both hilarious commentary on hipster ludicrousness and satire of yuppie suburban life. Tonight, Costello is joined by authors Megan Stielstra and Gary Johnson for readings, signings, and snacks.

Stereolab w/ Espers
|
|
Stereolab albums are like Russian nesting dolls. Each album — and there are many, including Fab Four Suture, a recently released collection of the band's latest EPs — is a rarified artifact, similar to its sisters but with enough variation to earn a home on the knick-knack shelf. On the outer shell, sci-fi synths tango with jazz guitars while kraut-flavored rhythms keep a steady gallop; inside, chanteuse Laetitia Sadier intones elliptical melodies. You could keep opening up the album, searching out its tiniest details, but sometimes it's more fun to experience Stereolab as a seamless whole — soothing, strange, and impossibly engrossing. Psychedelic folk trio Espers open. (TG)
What do Stereolab, the (International) Noise Conspiracy, and Rage Against the Machine all have in common? The third correct response wins a pair of tickets to this show.

Serena Maneesh w/ Psychic Ills and Dirty on Purpose
|

Continuing in the shoegazing tradition of Sonic Youth, the Jesus and Mary Chain, and My Bloody Valentine, Norwegian quintet Serena Maneesh tune into the college radio of the early '90s, layering abrasive and distorted sounds with Animal Collective-reminiscent psychedelia. On stage, leader Emil Nikolaisen, sister Hilma, and cohorts ignite the crowd, expanding on the philosophical journey they began with their eponymous debut album — which, not surprisingly, was mixed by SY producer Martin Bisi. The evening begins with Dirty on Purpose's NYC-bred dream-pop and Psychic Ills' strangely catchy noise rock. (PG)

Greenwood and her band of alter-egos put on a show that is as fun as
it is provocative. Wynne appears as bandleader "Tracy," as well as
Tracy's bandmates "Nikki" and "Cola," who are projected onto a video
screen and interact with Tracy and each other throughout the show. Lo-fi electronic punk and sexy, swooning, sugary vocals aren't the only
nourishment for the evening: Ms. Greenwood presents her electronic
rock circus in the delectable dining room of one of Wicker Park's
favorite hot spots, so you can nosh while you mosh. (MH)

While we can't sanely recommend the overcrowded, drunken spectacle that is the St. Patrick's Day Parade, watching 40 pounds of bright-green vegetable dye being dumped into the Chicago River — turning it into an hallucinogenic approximation of the River Shannon — is a damn cool annual tradition.

The Narrator w/ the Plastic Constellations, Part Chimp, and Oxford Collapse

It's been way too long since you went to a real rock show. Sure, you've been to "shows" — comatose audience members with their arms crossed, lightly swaying, sipping PBRs — but when was the last time you really rocked the eff out (that wasn't the '95 Warped Tour)? Beat Kitchen's got a lineup tonight that'll drag you back to those sweat-soaked, all-ages blowouts from your youth, including local young'un-punks the Narrator, hip-hop-tinged post-punk quartet the Plastic Constellations, the UK's (other) simian heroes, Part Chimp, and Brooklyn-based indie-rock purists, Oxford Collapse. Believe it or not, rock music can rawk — you might want to start double-fisting those PBRs. (TG)

The Wedding Present w/ Sally Crewe and the Sudden Moves
|
|
Were the Wedding Present an actual gift, they'd be a broken heart in a dented box caked with northern English mud; the card, a page of angsty scribbles from lead singer David Gedge's diary. And yes, you would be psyched to receive it. Making big waves across the pond with contemporaries the Smiths, the Wedding Present never really managed to break Stateside and disbanded after several critically acclaimed but commercially disappointing albums. Having briefly recorded as the poppier, calmer, more "mature" Cinerama, Gedge recently reformed the Present and re-gifted the pathos, stirring guitars, and bitter lyrics. That beats another gravy boat any day. Former Spoon-collaborators Sally Crewe and the Sudden Moves open. (LT)

Columbia College launches its 10th annual StoryWeek Festival of Writers with a Chicago-inspired event. The venerable Studs Terkel reads from And They All Sang: Adventures of an Eclectic Disc Jockey, his new collection of interviews with icons like Bob Dylan, Janis Joplin, Dizzy Gillespie, Leonard Bernstein, and Mahalia Jackson. Joining him is Stuart Dybek, reading from The Coast of Chicago, the stories of his Pilsen childhood recently adapted to critical acclaim by the Walkabout Theater Company. Moderated by Open Books host Donna Seaman, the pair discuss Chicago's influence on their respective work. At 93 years old, Terkel is a craggy-voiced font of American history, wisdom, and wit, and is not to be missed. (PAG)

The Books w/ Death Vessel
|
|
The Books (aka multi-instrumentalists Nick Zammuto and Paul de Jong) craft textured, sample-heavy noise-scapes — mostly peculiar vocal samples, culled from their massive, eclectic library, layered and reconstructed into new rhythms — and trim them with mellow vocals and such folky instrumentation as acoustic guitar, banjo, and violin. The effect is a melancholic, quasi-narrative sonic collage. Live, their sampler is integral, melting found sounds with Zammuto and de Jong's raucous noise and lovely melodies from guest vocalist Anne Doerner. Death Vessel, the project of experimental country/bluegrass singer-songwriter Joel Thibodeau and a cadre of collaborators, open the show. (AM)
What homespun artifacts has Nick Zammuto been deliberately seeking out in thrift stores? The third correct response wins a pair of tickets to this show.

Arranged chronologically from present-day text to the ancient Bonpo, the juxtaposition of varying religious and ideological texts illuminates all that has been lost in translation through the centuries.

Depicting one of Chicago's most memorable leaders during his final days in office (and on earth),
Giuntoli paints an honest, nuanced picture of the issues that defined
the original "Da Mare"'s tumultuous career. (PS)

Put that coffee down. As everybody knows by now, coffee is for closers — and if you can't close shit, well, you are shit. Lucky for you, buying admission to the Goodman Theatre's seven-week-long festival (Sat 3.4 - Sun 4.23) celebrating native son David Mamet is easier than winning a set of steak knives in a cutthroat real-estate sales contest. Fans of this caustic darling of

CD REVIEW: The Duke Spirit, Cuts Across the Land |
|
|
StarTime International
Released March 2006
$11.99 (Insound)
|
Despite the early hype surrounding them in their native England, the Duke Spirit chose to bide their time, ultimately compressing years of momentum into this dense, feedback-drenched banshee wail of a debut album. The five-piece initially sent local critics reeling with its Bloody Valentine-meets-Mary Chain-by-way-of-PJ Harvey brooding rock bonanza — a squall that Cuts Across the Land can barely contain. Wind-whipping, lightning-strike singles like "Lion Rip" and the title track seethe with classic rock 'n roll potency, while "Love Is an Unfamiliar Name," with its howling outro, could give Polly Jean herself reason for pause. Slower selections like "Bottom of the Sea" round things out in a narcotic haze, allowing just a moment's respite before the swirl kicks back up into a full-on tempest. (DL)
