tässä petrille kuva eilisistä meiningeistä:

eiq hetkinen, ei ehkä petrille eikä muillekaan:

Here is a legitimate photo actually taken by a nourishing-flourishing green bread provider.
Her name is Batter Hazmartin and this is one corner of the show she happened to catch by
side pinhole exposed elements and chemistry. The picture you are about to see may
disturb you, much like those 2 screaming children at the beginning of the show who were
struck in the head, and quickly escorted out. If you are weak in the heart and groin do not
procede to the lower part of this missive. It may change you in a way that will make you
unrecognizable to your fellow moderne dweller. In fact only a few, say four of you, should
give this little picture a gander. It is not for you. Or you for that matter.

scrollatkaa siis alas vaan jos varmasti haluatte nähdä "sen"...

Note the gravity defying "flying stool" as you may have heard about in the song "A Pointing
Lesson". If someone has another rabies colored stool, please donate it for the show
tonight. There are some people with sore bunyams on the "stage".

ette varmaan tajunneet, että carolinerin kahdeksannen albumin, mystisen tuplavinyylin
rings on the awkward shadow kakkoslevy on julkaistu halpana cdr-painoksena.

täältä

Caroliner Rings on the Awkward Shadow Sides 3 & 4
A singing bull from the 1800s sang songs in different mining camps. Years later
a band forms around the lyrics, and this is what you get....Wait!! This lp is
recorded entirely on WIRE SPOOLS! Sounds like boll weevils are broadcasting
this pup from inside an empty jewelry box. Sides 1 & 2 are out there somewhere,
but not on this label for some goddamned reason. If you love banjos, organs,
and boll weevils, you really have to have this thing in the outhouse next to your
emergency cateracts. Details on the lp here: CAROLINER REVIEWS
$3.99 CD-R

logiikka, missä pelaa? mutta hienoa meininkiä ja aavemaista soundia 1800-luvulta,
suosittelen peuk deadhorse tongue

todellista lo-fia muuten:

Rings On The Awkward Shadow was recorded by Roopy du Rupert onto eight-track like a normal album you might hear about someplace, but then the entire thing was dumped onto wire spool recorder! And I don't mean one of those fancy 10,000-track wire spool recording studios like the kind U2 record in - this recorder was sort of an early antique dictaphone that LITERALLY records onto a piece of WIRE. So the recording went from normal stereo sound to a mono recording intended solely for speech, with NO frequency response for anything outside the range of ordinary human speech. It's basically equivalent to recording on tinfoil. As such, most of the actual "music" was completely obliterated, leaving behind a steadily fading in-and-out collection of strange brapfs, nearly unlistenable organ- or violin-sounding expressions of chord change and screamed vocals so trebly you're lucky your dick doesn't fall off from hearing it.

dame d'arcyn haastis, laitetaan tänne ku onhan tossa caroliner-juttuakin:

10 Things We Always Ask by Kat Burke to be seen on NIMBIT.com

1. Tell us a bit about your music. What is your style, do you have an album out?

I am originally a folk musician. My first instrument was an autoharp when I was 5, I used to do shows and perform with my Dad, and I come from a cowboy poet musical and artistic family that currently still live on the ranch in Idaho like they have for the last century. My Dad taught me how to play banjo when I was 10 , but I was influenced by new wave and death rock synth stuff when I was a teenager in the 80's. Thats when I learned to play electric bass.
When I went to the San Francisco Art Institute after I graduated High School I started playing in really weird and psychedelic theatrical/punk rock noise and experimental groups. Caroliner and Suckdog were my first bands and tours. I put out several 7inch's and comic books that I drew with tapes etc. And was included on Kill Rock stars compilations etc. I did a 7 inch with the cocktails, another cartoonist musician Archer Prewitt, who is currently in Sea and Cake.
This was mostly doing weird experimental music but with folk instruments, banjo, singing saw, autoharp. Now I'm bi costal NY-LA I do experimental dark wave and psychedelic folk rock. My latest release was the Death By Doll CD that was released last fall, it is the sound track for Gasoline, my next graphic novel and feature film and will be included with the book. Death By Doll is moving more into the experimental folk thing with our next album. More banjo and sea shanties. You can still get the limited editions of some of my 7 inches and the latest Death By Doll release on Dame Darcy.com

2. How old were you when you first performed for an audience?
I remember singing with my Dad at a festival when I was about 3

3. Where was your first performance?
My first shows were in bluegrass festivals. My Dad had a band but he thought it was cute to have me perform with them I guess.
My first shows on my own were in San Francisco, I joined Caroliner because I could play both the electric bass and banjo and we had these 20 ft tall florescent props and everything and everyone was dementedly surreal. I also had long florescent green hair and a corset with forks and a spinning roulette wheel five feet around. there were 3 girls on trampolines drumming and my boyfriend had a bucket of mechanical bees on his head and two arms to play guitar and a tutu. This was all constructed by Grux and I spent about a year and a half when I was 18 as his assistant. He was also my best friend at the time. Caroliner Rainbow was based on a story about a singing bull named Caroliner Rainbow in the 1800's, which grux would dress like.

The other band I was in, Suckdog, was a demented operatic performance troupe created by Lisa Carver that went along with her zine Rollerderby, on our first tour we sang with music orchestrated by Jean Louis Costes who is completely insane. Our characters were Siamese twins who were cut in half by a retarded French Canadian lumberjack then raped and killed. We had glitter, fake blood, air freshener and fake flowers, as part of the show Jean Louis threw up spinach on everything and shot milk out of a turkey baster that looked like a giant penis, this is when he was the Salami Swami. At CBGB's we attacked Matt Dylan. We put money down his pants. After all this I became part of a simple bluegrass band called Grouse Mountain Skyride. Very simple and acoustic.

4. Are you a schooled musician or are you self-taught?
I was taught by my Dad but then I went on from there. I remember my Dad saying, "I'm going to teach you how to read music, so you learn the right way from the start" But I don't know how to read music still, I also took a class in Jr. High, I remember this, how I read music. But I forgot. I wish I could read music now. I do everything by ear. My band mate Skippy was all fancy music schooled, so he can adapt to my hillbillyness.

5. What/who are your biggest influences?
As a kid, I kind of did a lot of what I do now, drew endless books and listened to records. They worked all day. Their record collection was all I knew. My favorite and earliest music was stuff they had, Donovan a gift from a flower to a garden was my favorite childhood record, also, God Bless Tiny Tim, I can still sing every word of every song on these front to back. The Kinks, The sonics, Johnny Cash, The Stones and the Beatles of course, and folky girls like Joan Baez and Carly Simon. And the assorted kids records like the pirates of the Caribbean, and the Alice in Wonderland soundtrack.
Then as a teenager my favorite bands were the Swans, Joy Division, Suicide, Siouxsie, Fetus, Bauhaus, The Sugar Cubes, OMD, The Cure , Mark Almond, Sonic Youth, Royal Trux, The smiths, Diamanda Galas, Psychic TV, Red Lorry Yellow Lorry, Echo and the Bunnymen, Big Black, The Cocteau Twins, Jesus and Mary Chain, and industrial stuff like Coil, skinny puppy, Ministry, and weirder stuff like Severed Heads, Clan of Xymox, and classics like Brian Eno, Bowie, and The Velvet underground.

In my early 20's I really liked Lee Hazelwood and Nancy Sinatra, Scott Walker, Nico, the old folkways stuff like the carter family, and Hindi Musical soundtracks, 20's jazz like Bix Biderbech, also I knew a lot of people that played the Space aged bachelor pad stuff like Mancini, Esquivel, and Yma Sumac.
I liked Babes in Toyland too and Bikini Kill and that whole resurgence of girl/rock music.

I had a really crazy collection of 78's and a victrolla then but i had to leave it in NY when I moved and I'm sure my ex threw them all out by now. 78's are hard to carry, fragile and heavy. I have a victrolla now but it took me a decade to collect those records and they are more rare than ever now. My ex threw away my alice in wonderland paintbox from when I was a kid and my dolls too.

6. How do you generally promote yourself? Who handles most of the business stuff?
Dame Darcy.com is under a revision process now where we are starting a community and links, I guess my main promotion comes from just doing shows, and through my comic book Meat Cake. I have a business manager who used to represent Sheppard ferry (you know, Obey the giant) and awesome assistants who I love. The record label that Death By Doll is on Emperor Penguin Records, is cool, they help out. But I want a PR person who handles everything for me all the time, I want it more than I want my wedding.

7. Do you currently have a day job outside of performing?
No, I make a living publishing comic books and graphic novels and doing freelance design and animation work and selling my fine art illustrations from my books and dolls and paintings.
The music down loads and sales from DD.com help, but they are not my main source of income.
I'm starting an awesome new game to play on DD.com based on Meat Cake with dolls and music to down load from a virtual victrolla. The glory is now dawning!

8. What do you think sets you apart from other artists out there?
I definitely have my influences and I know I influence as well but no one sounds like me or draws like me. This is a good thing in a way because if you like what I do I've got the market cornered. But if someone doesn't like it. Then they don't. I have a distinct taste and thankfully enough people like it that I can make a living. Otherwise I'd be dead in the water.

9. What are your musical goals for the year ahead?
To have my graphic novel Gasoline published and have the Death By Doll CD included with it. Also to record the next DXD release. and put out an experimental 7 inch with a little comic book.

10. Do you have any guilty music pleasures? (You know you love Kelly Clarkson admit it!)
I sometimes really love super faggy electronic dance music. It makes me feel all hot pink and want to jump around like a girl. Like when I was 14 listening to The Sparks,( but todays version of that) that comes on the radio. I listen to the radio a lot.
I also get all PMS emo and listen to Patsy Kline, and Dolly Parton.
my Favorite current bands are Robbie D's version of Dolly, Radiohead, Ladytron, Fischer Spooner, and I really love the Vanishing, Mount Simms, Glass Candy, Get Hustle, Peaches, Nora Keyes, you know...

I know some of you protest there is some "Non Caroliner" areas in this
recording, you will just have to suffer it along with me if there is a
chance I might be able to hear it. Maybe your patience will be tried
and whittled to bare nerves, that's so sad for you, however you can
push the button along (one hour into it) until you meet some colorful

Guadalajara, Mexico magazine interview deadhorse

Caroliner interview. Not sure of the magazine title, maybe Cactus
knows off hand. The interviewer was very cordial in her introduction
letter.

1. Are all of the songs that you play in Caroliner songs that you
learned from the dead singing bull, or just some of them?

As of this date everything we do will be from the Caroliner archive.
The only existing cover song outside of the Caroliner catalogue is the
cover of "Bow Tie Buddy" which was originally recorded by the Barrell
Gordon Trio. We tried some Hoosier Hotshots covers, but found the
arrangement complicated (at the time), and gave up the endeavor as it
was very time consuming. It turned itself backwards with gut string
over a cardboard box, and the beat of a wild snake god with the song
"The Spitting Storm Nagaloxxxa". It's humiliating to try covering
songs when there is so much Caroliner music that needs to come out. At
this point that is...

2. Caroliner seems very enchanted by the 1800s, but do you also enjoy
modern conveniences like ipods and microwave ovens?

If you mean eye-gourds and tiny shore powered cook-ovens we have
neither. Most of our cooking is by iron skillet and open flame.
Simpler the better. Batter on a flat hot surface, maybe a handful of
berries, flour, oils, caker riloo, water, baker's horn, vanilla bark,
shaker basket, spoon, mittens, griddle grease, bag pizan, ground
millet, and a good sturdy towel to clean up the inevitable mess.

3. Your Caroliner records always have beautiful and very elaborate
handmade cover art. Do you think of your LPs as artifacts?

They are historical literature disc statues set to music. If you have
an encyclopedia series on a bookshelf next to a ten volume set on the
American Civil War, Caroliner long play records might fit in right
between the sets. Might want to throw in some dried up work horses
from the 1840s in there too if the shelf is of a grand scale mansion
design.

4. Has the extended exposure to black lights in your stage show
lighting over the years affected the health of band members?

We have experienced very little health effects since most of our
bodies are composed of (or covered with) human chip-wood, outhouse
paneling, mule heads, squirrel god teeth, baroque 1800s fleur de lys,
fine mediaeval sea-god baffling, hair wreaths, whale baleen, telegraph
wiring, prune picking huge hands, meat wraiths, pipe organ portables,
manuscripts, cocksuns, nettle oyster belvederes, baited planilla
pants, facial lanterns, gummed boot cupolas, and finger nail umbrella
spires usually wrapped together in a folded praying hands position.

5. Has Caroliner ever considered entering the Eurovision song contest?

We, as an American institution, would probably be suffered in the
lower part of the Rhine River amongst religious fanatics of Germany.
We can't even compete with anything on the modern horizon with the
hostility of our dump aesthetic. These paw waving folks from Bavaria
who went by the name the Hubeins, and were driven deep under the water
by outraged common christian worshipers would resemble our fate. The
Hubiens would dress in long flowing gowns and speak of the three gods
of Abraham, one of which was the sun. People were most outraged by the
doomsday food they prepared for non-believers. The food was made in
the shapes of human body appendages, all very large limbs, all red in
color. Mistaken for bloody body tools in the creation of a "devil of
many parts" they were sunk into Rhine waters never to resurface.
As you may know we construct the ergot delusions that people
experienced in parts of America (not Europe so much) to great applause
in the United States. Outside of this country we are uncomfortable to
play in front of the larger audiences because of the hysteria we might
generate. Italy was completely insane, like bed bug arms in every
direction crazy. We can't play anywhere near the Rhine because of this
deep seated fear of being accused of cultage. None of us can swim either.

6. What is ergot, exactly, and how does it impact the songs and
songwriting of Caroliner?

Most of the bizarre descriptions of actions of life in the 1800s
resulted from eating rotten food full of ergot. Ergot is tiny mold
spore that grew mostly on rotten rye bread eaten in the winters when
all rats were tracked down and eaten. There was nothing but the
spoiled food out in the middle of nowhere. Stores were far away in the
more rural areas of the country, so you ate the poison. The people who
were able to use the language to describe these hallucinations from
ergot were writing under the influence of a reality not hampered by
constraints of reason or logic. Combined with lack of food and sleep
the poor person might be eating fistfuls of frozen dirt later. It's
hard to trace where the damage begins and ends in the actual song
lyrics. Some of the songs might be actual ballads.

7. Does Caroliner like to indulge in rock star lifestyle perks like
recreational drugs, groupies, throwing TVs out of hotel windows?

Our "antics" we have been accused of are mostly cooked up my chatty
magpies with a corner of a brain hidden in the dung heap of a skull
facsimile. We leave kitchen sinks spotless after a day in a guest's house.
You may have heard about our couplings with beast people (an actual
show WITH Beast People), and the release of the "Dizzy Starbark" bank
funded work-trade disc (we don't work for any bank organization) both
of which are ridiculous in accusation.
What we enjoy is a good watching of a thrush bird messing about on the
floor of the forest, flipping leaves and finding a few food mites to
chew on. The cock of the head at a strange angle is possibly the most
rewarding sight of all.
Cloud observing occupies off time on tour between cities. We have
identified all types of marine life in the sky as well as famous
historical faces. The most intriguing historical figure seen in the
sky was over Kansas. Charles H. Spurgeon, who short shifted the idea
of Calvanism, was up there seeming to gesture at a pile of scattered
books that might be things he was condemning or editing. A cloud can't
give you a good answer when you ask it a question.
A member of Caroliner, Diabowlick Saggindrawers has a quote that he
calls "a cloud quote" having a skill for cloud-reading. It goes
"natural love for truth, and that the prevailing taste for the use of
rare metals for vanities, arises more from the super-abundance of that
society, and a disposition to retool the earth into something that
features a mankind styled control".

8. How does the band design and construct the very large and
complicated day-glo painted sets for your live shows?

How does one decorate a living quarter? We have a plan, often made on
the day of the show, to take the large amount of Caroliner wallpaper,
1800s artifacts, and members to a place who has contracted us to play
a show.

9. Is the singing bull still in contact with the band, from the ether?

Possibly, most of the shows are vague memories with many antics. Band
members don't remember so much of it as they are jostled in memory,
recounted by people who surround the band with information, and
possibly in the rare occasion criticisms.

10. What is Caroliner's view of You Tube and all of the video
documentation of the 1800s?

Your information is vague, and our technological skills are possibly
below the visibility of a fine mist. If you have a pair of eyes, and
make an effort even so slight as a claw less sloth, you will probably
come across Caroliner in your lifetime.

11. Does the band think of itself as a noise band? What do you think
of the big noise scene in San Francisco and Oakland?

This is the most difficult question to answer for the local community.
Also it's most complex of issues distributed among those the lovers of
country western pumple music, and those who align themselves with a
very sick group of bison spitting up velvet artifacts of the new west.
A noise band is a group of people making a ruckus possibly to
infuriate the observer into an active angle not taken before.
Caroliner actually has a divisive corridor of specific feelings and
library-worthy information passed on in each release or live setting.
We are happy to associate ourselves with the more popular noisy people
in our homes so they might bring us comfort in the lonely dusk hours.
Nodding the head often with the "This is quite interesting" helps with
their friendliness. They often end up sewing with, and feeding us,
making all very endeared to their sounds. There is also the "clang
tradition" of Sussex that we embrace (chasing landlords with rattling
tea kettles) that finds its way into the main frame of Caroliner live
shows and more often: the recordings.
The locals who employ themselves on the fruit of noise have a mud
speared guttural sound language that diverges with itself as often as
not. You have copy cats and poesy noseys with jugglings of wires and
turn-a-bouts in the community which are embraced or sneered at.
Doors slam, windows creak in a delicious pressure-force becoming
complex, perhaps slowly developing into a new strange spontaneous
brain death. On the same finger you also have tattered patch monkeys
splashing their sick through a systematized amplification turning the
environment into the heavy world of the earth's pointy core where
everyone is crawling on tridents and daggers.

12. Did the Women's Liberation movement of the 1960s and 1970s make
any impact on Caroliner?

Possibly no. Some of the bigger musicians, who up to their death from
the birth, were of interest to individuals in the Caroliner band.
Helen Kane, Rose Murphy, Bassie Temwhil, The Brox Sisters, Ami Arnell,
Boswell Sisters, Ivie Anderson, and Helen Humes were all considered
metaphorical jezebels to the coal filled heart that needed a good
torching. All of them came before the idea of nudity rampant in the 1960s.

13. Does Caroliner feel any kinship or affinity with other well-known
visually-striking bands like the Residents or Gwar?

Both seem to be on a different ship going in a different direction to
the big crowds across the globe. Gwar had the honor of educating us
one summer on how to use the toilets of the east coast with proper
etiquette many years ago at their metal hut in Richmond. All of that
information has been filed away and purposefully lost. It wasn't very
useful to us, we who are older, more expert in the commode uses
anyhow. They had a wet floor of unknown substances also which led us
to believe they were being slightly misrepresented of the skills they
bragged of. most of the words they use are shouted, unintelligible
gibberish involving local slang, and violence. Interesting, but not a
good idea to recall on a pleasant day of toiletries.

14. Caroliner is one of the longest-running experimental music bands
in the world. What do you owe your longevity as a band to?

This 1800s tribute band has a goal to educate and put out all 100 lps
(more perhaps, but for now that's the short term plan) in the vein of
country western music played by steam powered double ended goats
single gulping large redwoods of Omaha, or refine-lipped horsecannon
pushing slender filigree into key holes of violin wires. We have a
strict code of ethics that keeps us on great terms with our
surrounding fellows who house, feed and bathe us on tours which
perpetuates the good spirits of the band year after year also.
After three demerit servings of 'the horn' from an older band mate
(age does matter) the person who has poked the fouled finger in the
perfect pie must apologize, work on someone else's archaic sourpants,
and practice music in the privacy of their own frowning despotism of
one. Sometimes the villain is forced into a closet with a broken
instrument and has to listen to the rest of us play as a punishment.
When let out, the person needs to write a Congress person of the
United States to show their desires to make comfort with someone other
than themselves.
Over the years people have demerited themselves only because the
servings of 'the horn' in it's perverse fantastic wrappings is
becoming a collectable commodity. We will probably go to the American
Dollar, instead, as it is worth less in a debauched economy, such as
the one we are in.
Courtesy, impartial freedom of stupidity, cleanliness, and
perseverance might be the musical experiment for a listening chamber
orchestra that we have driven ourselves over the refined genteel-cliff to.

15. Mental illness seems to be a primary theme of your songs. Are all
genius artists mentally ill? Does mental illness allow the seeing of
hidden beauty?

You ask us as if we are afflicted with mental incapacities. We
portray an 1800s time that was filled with genius, creative beings,
wild countries, and dreams unfiltered by previously generalized minds.
The answer would have to be "possibly", or "ask a fickle-minded moon
howling imbecile".

tässä ihan hyvä blogimerkintä carolinerista.

him: you'll never believe what i saw in rough trade.
me: what?
him: a caroliner t-shirt!
me: no!?! did you buy it?
him: well....no.
me: why?
him: because it was an old potato sack with hole cut in it for the arms and head and the word 'caroliner' scribbled across it in felt tip pen. i'm not paying £10 for that.
me: .....oh.

nyt hemmotellaan forumisteja taidepläjäyksellä colorflash LAULAKAA MUKANA deadhorse :peuk:

This was produced for the brute masses a Visual Aid in comprehending
Caroliner. NOT a Musical Video, it is intended merely to encourage
simultaneous digestion of Lyrics and Music by the technological
denizens who are simply unable to accomplish a feat of concentration
that is normal for the non-addled Christian; however, if even this
concession to the sore huddled pissabeds is Inappropriate as a
presentation of the Song and Music, please inform us and we will
remove it forthwith. Possibly.
Here is the noted production, the eye is real and should be look at as
a horse's orb:
