New Blockaders
 
Any fans? The 4CD Antiology has been beating my ass savagely these past few days.

whorefrost 02.12.2007 02:25 PM

Yeah, they were pretty much my ATP highlight as well, along with Dead C. The early live shit from the antiology is unfuckable with.

i just found out that the new blockaders is one guy and when the NB play live he (new blockader bloke) gives source material to other musicians who perform for him while he stands in the crowd and watches.

i think that they are fantastic. especially the lp they did w/thurston & jim.

Really? I had no idea.. they all had masks on at ATP, same ones as the Nihilist Assault Group wear on the Fun From None DVD.. I thought TNB was two guys, brothers?
There are two 4LP boxset tributes to TNB featuring commissioned reworkings of their source material.. that sort of fits in with what you're saying... interesting..

Toilet & Bowels 02.12.2007 08:16 PM

well that's what someone told me, i don't know this guy well but he's the kind of person who would probably know

sonicl 02.13.2007 05:11 AM

If you speak nicely to Nicfit, he has a magazine that I sent him that includes a feature on TNB and he might be able to scan the article and post it.

I hated them at ATP. If it wasn't for the fact that I was enticed into the room with the promise of other boardies being there I would have left after about two minutes.

nicfit 02.13.2007 05:55 AM

:)
I'll post the article as soon as possible.
I'm easily persuaded, eh Nefeli?

Consider yourself well and truly repped.

jon boy 02.13.2007 06:59 AM

whorefrost 02.13.2007 10:56 AM

splendid, thanks a lot for those scans

PAULYBEE2656 02.13.2007 11:26 AM

gotta check these out. i have been meaning to but got distracted along the path to freedom......

nicfit 02.14.2007 02:46 AM

Thanks guys (you know who you are) for the rep, but the credit for the scans is to be shared with sonicl, if it wasn't for him I wouldn't even have the magazine I took the article from! So, here is my "public", huge THANK YOU to sonicl for his kindness! :)
