Brix & The Extricated - Part 2 (2017)

Brix / The Extricated

Part 2

(2017)

Brix Smith Start (born Laura Elisse Salenger, best known as Brix Smith) is an American singer and guitarist, best known as the lead guitarist and a major song writer for the English post-punk band The Fall. Smith Start reunited with former Fall members Steve Hanley and Paul Hanley as Brix & The Extricated for a one-off gig at the Manchester Ruby Lounge in December 2014. They played Fall songs to celebrate the launch of Steve Hanley's book "The Big Midweek: Life Inside The Fall." The success of the concert saw the band start performing more gigs and in 2015 a national UK tour. They played the Rebellion Festival in August 2016 where Brix was interviewed by John Robb. By this time new material was being written and introduced into the set. A single "Something to Lose" was released on Blang Records in November 2016, followed by the album "Part 2" in September 2017.

- Ne izgledaš mi nešto dobro.
- Osećam se pomalo lenjo... verovatno je to prolećni umor.

- Otkud ti prolećni umor u oktobru?!

- Majka mi je uvek govorila da sam pomalo spor u svemu.

Mask

1. oktobra 1981. objavljen je "Mask", drugi album Bauhaus. Na njemu su se tada našli i singlovi koji su publici već bili poznati - "Kick in the eye" i "The passion of lovers". Pored standardnog zvuka sa prvog albuma, "Kumovi gotha" u svoju muziku uvode nove instrumente, poput klavijatura, akustične gitare i saksofona, ali i funky ritam koji možemo čuti u pesmama "Dancing" i "In fear of fear" (čiji je autor Daniel Ash).

Ash je takođe autor omota ovog albuma; može se slobodno reći da je to preteča njegovog The Bubblemen dizajna - koji će se ponovo pojaviti u svom punom sjaju na četvrtom albumu Bauhaus "Burning from the inside" (1983), kao i u novom bendu koji je nastao po njihovom razlazu - Love and Rockets.

Video za naslovnu numeru sa albuma bio je sniman u napuštenoj viktorijanskoj fabrici obuće u Northamptonu, kao svojevrstan omaž Hammer horor filmovima iz sedamdesetih godina. Bend nije imao dozvolu da tu snima, pa su morali više puta da u nju krišom ulaze i izlaze tokom produkcije spota.

"Mask" je definitivno gotik-rok i postpunk album, koji ističe koheziju tekstova i gitare Daniela Asha, ritmova braće Kevina i Davida J. Haskinsa, glasa i performansa Petera Murphyja.

2009. se pojavilo tzv. omnibus izdanje albuma "Mask", koje obuhvata tri audio diska: remasterizovani album, kompilaciju singlova, demo i neobjavljenih snimaka, kao i "This is for when..." snimak koncerta u londonskom Hammersmith Palaisu (9. novembra 1981). Omnibus izdanje je upotpunjeno knjigom o tome kako je sniman ovaj album.

Postpunk: Bauhaus - Mask (03.10.2017)

Senovit čovek u ilovači, misli

U klopci, dok o gušenju sneva

Gvožđe svuda oko njega

Plastični znoj kroz proreze za oči lije

Iz drača pod ustima zapečenim

Razumećeš ako slušaš

Samoglasnike kubistički sapete

Poput izraza na licu lutke

U tu promenu behu uloženi

I misterija i sram

Da ono što jesam postane nešto drugo:

Delom lik, a delom senzacija

Senka je bačena

Bauhaus "Mask"
