This is pop?

A radio show. a blog. a box of sounds., song of the day: baustelle – contro il mondo.

5 January saw the release of “Contro il mondo” on BMG, the new single by Baustelle, the band that wrote the rules of alternative music in Italy. The band composed of Francesco Bianconi, Claudio Brasini and Rachele Bastreghi is preparing to return live this year with a sold-out tour.

“Contro il mondo” is a track written by Francesco Bianconi that confirms the brilliance of Baustelle’s intuition to look at the past as a resource and without nostalgia. The Baustelle return with a single in which tradition and risk are mixed, proving once again their innate ability to be captivating, provocative and profoundly avant-garde in their telling of the reality that surrounds us. In “Contro il mondo”, the daily routine of yoga, aperitifs and routine collides with the need for escape, culminating in a cry of rebellion, all to the sound of rock and roll and retro atmospheres, in full Baustelle style.

“Where were we? How long has it been? Those who hoped we would get better were obviously wrong. Rather, we continue to live, with the same ferocity as always and new music. This song is called ‘Against the World’: it is a little story, a film, a parable, a cry, bass-snare drum-electric guitar, chewing gum. Our return to criticism and rock and roll. Handle with care,’ declare Baustelle.

From their debut album ‘Sussidiario illustrato della giovinezza’ (Illustrated Compendium of Youth), to their latest album, ‘L’amore e la violenza, vol.2’ (Love and Violence, vol.2), via great classics such as ‘Charlie fa surfing’, Baustelle have distinguished themselves on the Italian music scene for having recounted contemporaneity with a revolutionary, direct, profound language and deliberately vintage sound, starting a real trend. Enjoy the tune!

Hailing from South London, England, Bastille (stylized as BΔSTILLE) is an indie rock group formed in 2010. The moniker refers to Bastille Day on 14 July, also the birthday of founder and lead vocalist Daniel Smith.

Bastille encompasses four key players: singer Dan Smith, drummer Chris Wood, bassist William Farquarson, and keyboardist Kyle Simmons. Bastille began recording music in 2010 under the indie label Young & Lost Club, which included singles “Flaws” and “Icarus” and the EP “Laura Palmer.” The band utilized social media sites YouTube and MySpace to expose audiences to new releases via the Internet. The mixtapes “Other People’s Heartache” parts one and two showcases the band’s talent in remixing covers of well-known songs like “Titanium” by David Guetta and TLC’s “Scrubs.” In 2011 Bastille participated in some of UK’s major musical festivals like Glastonbury, Isle of Wight, and Blissfields.

Bastille gained a following in the UK during 2012 after Virgin Records released the singles “Overjoyed” and “Bad Blood.” Soon after, the band received honorable mentions in UK music magazine “Q” and British newspaper “The Guardian.” Virgin Records re-released “Flaws,” one of Bastille’s first compositions and the single jumped to No.21 on the UK Top 40.

Bastille released their debut album “Bad Blood” in 2013 and it quickly exploded on the charts. The album peaked at No.1 on the UK charts and the single “Pompeii” reached No. 5 in the U.S. The positive reviews secured Bastille a slot at the UK summer music festival Reading and Leeds. Bastille’s music has also gained exposure through television, appearing on shows like “The Vampire Diaries,” reality show “Made in Chelsea,” and British soap opera “Hollyoaks.” On 4 February 2014, Bastille won Best Breakthrough Act at the BRIT Awards.

Lead singer Dan Smith draws inspiration from the music he listened to growing up like artists Lauryn Hill and duo Simon & Garfunkel. He also has a deep appreciation for Regina Spektor’s work.

Live reviews

I had waited for so long to see Bastille, and I had thought I had missed my chance after they sold out their show last fall. Fortunately, Songkick answered my prayers, notifying me that Bastille didn't forget about me, and they were coming back to Chicago in the spring. I finally got to see them at The Riviera Theater, and it was so worth the long wait. Ever since the release of their Overjoyed EP, I wanted to hear Dan Smith's voice and also see how the band produced their amazing music live. They did not fail to impress, and the show was better than I'd imagined it was going to be. The show started with a bang as they played "Bad Blood," getting the crowd hyped up. From start to finish, Dan really impressed us all with his ability to control his voice while jumping up and down and moving around on the stage. It's crazy how good his voice was; he sounded exactly like their audio recordings. He would sing and interact with the crowd, and for some songs he would play the drums or the keyboard. What was really cool about Bastille was that the other band members all moved around the stage as well to play different instruments during different songs. For "Overjoyed," they moved to a corner of the stage and played a version of the song with keyboards and electric drums. The lighting of the stage changed colors throughout the show which really added to the upbeat vibe. Dan was so happy and personable; he wanted us to dance with him and told us that he didn't want to look like a fool dancing alone (even though he didn't, of course). But he didn't have to tell us twice; we were more than happy to oblige. Jumping up and down while singing/dancing and playing the drums couldn't possibly be enough for the lead singer, so he took it to the next level - literally: during the song "Flaws," Dan precariously climbed up the side  stairs and into the balcony while singing, not once missing a line or beat. He took full advantage of all the areas he could sing in throughout the venue, and it was so entertaining to watch where he was going to go next. The quality of Bastille's performance was unreal. They put on a show that highlighted how diversely talented each of the members are. They were so connected with each other yet aware of the audience, and they acknowledged our enthusiastic cheers and singing. When they played their single "Pompeii," the band (To Kill a King) who opened for them came back out and sang with them. It was such a cool thing to see them join Bastille because their voices are also on the audio recording. It was such a fun show, and I'm so glad that there are so many other people who appreciate Bastille as much as I do.

Report as inappropriate

I had the pleasure of seeing Bastille live for the 2nd time on 11/11/14. My first time was 12/2/13 and the band sounded absolutely amazing! This time, the size of the venue had grown, as had the stage production. The light and video display really added to the excitement of the show and served to augment the music visually.

With Bastille, however, the show is more about the music than the fluff. This is a band that provides their audience with varied themes and emotions in the music, always coming up with something interesting and entertaining. The band members are all vocalists, as well as talented musicians, which gives the band their signature harmonies. I am always impressed by an electronic band that can put on a powerful live gig without relying heavily on canned music. Bastille performs with a lot of energy and really connects with their audience. My teenagers were astounded that there was a moment when Dan was moving through the crowd as he sang (something he also did at last year's show), and they were concerned for his safety. I believe that truly connecting with fans is a risk Dan is willing to take, and Bastille's fans are loyal and passionate in response.

My teens were disappointed to not hear a couple of their favorite songs, and I explained that those particular songs are covers, and that there may be copyright issues, or perhaps other reasons that Bastille could not perform What Would You Do and Requiem For Blue Jeans. We did hear many of our favorites, and loved that Ella Eyre is touring with Bastille so that we could hear No Angels live.

Ella's opening set was very energetic and got the crowd pumped up for the headliner. The energy of the whole evening was very positive, and the crowd obviously adores these artists as much as they enjoy performing. I wholeheartedly recommend catching a Bastille concert if you ever have the opportunity.

Bastille were absolutely brilliant.

I showed up at 7am to queue because I wanted to get front row. I did. Queue system was terrible. Some of their fans didn't know what respect is but anyway. The second you walk into the arena, the show starts. It doesn't only start when THEY walk in. That's what I love so much about them. They put on the most incredible and smart show I've ever been to. Ever. From their opening acts, to their lighting, to their visuals, with Stephen Hepworth being hilarious and amazing, to their whole WWCOMMS concept and their skills and voices. This band is the most incredible band I've ever heard/seen/met/loved. Dan's voice is flawless. From A to Z, even when he's jumping all over the place and stuff, his singing is absolutely beautiful. His voice and Charlie Barnes's together is probably what you hear when you enter heaven. Their setlist is brilliant,going from upbeat songs to quiet peaceful ones that leave tears rolling down your cheeks and the arena lit up with phone torches. Nothing is more beautiful than a Bastille gig. The fact that they use the whole arena is also one of the best things ever. Nobody does that. You can find Dan either on stage, in the middle of the crowd, jumping around with fans, on the platform at the back of the arena, or in the higher part of the arena, with Will this time. That's absolutely amazing and everyone feels included with that. They really blew my mind with these two nights at the O2. I had seen them before but there, that was a whole new level. Best gigs ever.

It was a hot, beautiful day when Bastille performed at Boston Calling 2014 and I couldn't have been more miserable.

The day been long and eventful, with the sun harshly beating down, which can make a person grow very tired. On the verge of calling quits, the glorious being that is Dan Smith, strutted on to the main stage. His up and coming album "Bad Blood" which featured the superb, very popular song "Pompeii" is one of the only albums where every single song is spectacular. And this showed in the bands performance. Every note in a song is exemplified and draws you closer to the stage. Just the energy that the entire band emits, entices you and whether you want to or not, you dance your ass off.

Not only is the music incredible but so are the band members, Dan Smith, Chris Wood, William Farquarson and Kyle Simmons. All of them play roles in the music and the performance. The lead singer, Smith, really tries to engage with the audience, cheering and joking around. During "Flaws" (my personal favorite) he came down into the crowd and took a bit of stroll. This band makes you part of the music and for those who don't like their sound, anyone will enjoy watching them perform. Bastille is that type of band you can see over and over, each time being a new, thrilling experience.

I have been to see Bastille 4 times and every single time was absolutely incredible! I saw them twice at reading (secret show and scheduled) once in Cardiff SU and one when they were supporting Two Door Cinema Club. Their music is so good to listen to but 100 times better live. They are a bit shy as a and but still manage to really connect with their audience. However each time I have seen them they have got better and better. The last time Dan even came into the audience at the back, which was so good because at some concerts if your at the back you can really feel out of the action, but not at Bastille. Their playlist is a great mix so even if your not a massive fan you still can enjoy the concert. I have seen them in the student union in Cardiff (tiny venue) and at Reading Festival, they were amazing at both and well worth the money. Their career so far has been an incredible journey to follow, and I cannot wait for what comes next. They are a very humble group of friends and not boastful about their achievements, which is really great to see. You can tell they are all extremely passionate about their music, and love to play for their fans. I cannot wait to see them again at V this year!

Bastille performed my favorite live show last night. Ever. Now may opinion may be biased for my love of this band, but who's aren't really. Bastille put an outstanding show that everyone in the audience obviously loved. Every song was delivered with absolute perfection by humble frontman Dan Smith. In his trademark black tee and white converse high tops, he shows his true colors as a showman to everyone in the audience Backed by the best of band mates Woody (aka Chris Wood) on drums never missing a beat, Will Farquarson with his suave, reserved self on bass and Kyle Simmons on the keys. All of the band harmonize with Dan on vocals which I think is rad. Several things I liked from this show: The damn good music as that is a given. Dan and how he likes to join the crowd every show as he did this time. When the audio failed Galway through Pompeii and we had to sing for/with him a capella which was by far my favorite part. Things I disliked: That it wasn't longer. My takeaways from this show is that from their performance, I will definitely be seeing them again and again

High-tempo, fast-paced (for the most part) misery pop. What's not to love? As Dan Smith himself attested multiple times, a lot of Bastille's songs are about depressing stuff, but the way in which they deliver them is anything but.

Smith is a lively front man, determined to deliver a show; his approach to this is: throw everything at 'em and see what sticks. For this gig that involved hurling himself about the stage doing his self-confessed "terrible dancing", wandering out through the crowd with mic in hand, performances on a satellite stage towards the back of the arena, a performance up in the gods during the encore and finally, hitting the crowd with - not one - but three (count em) different types of sky glitter and streamers.

But for all the show's gimmicks, the songs themselves were the true stars. With two strong albums to call on now, Bastille can justify their Arena-level status easily (despite Smith's continuing instance of the ridiculousness of it all); indeed, the finale of 'Pompeii' must surely be for a stadium near you in the not too distant future.

First of all. Somerset house is a great venue in a beautiful courtyard. Open skies and not too over crowded. Bastille were amazing. They really connected with the crowd and were very entertaining. I liked how Dan Smith slammed the drums while singing and at one stage there were three people on keyboards including Dan, which I thought was pretty impressive. It also makes a show more interesting if the band brings a special guest on stage. In this case it was Ella from TLC. The highlight of the evening for me was probably when Dan got off the stage and sang his second last song while walking through the crowd. He walked straight past me so I patted him on the back. I really like it when a band interacts with the crowd like that. It just adds so much extra value to a concert, and they definitely played all the songs I wanted to here. You can't expect anything less from a band who had the second most downloaded/streamed song in 2013. It's a great band and I highly recommend to go see them and enjoy the experience. Thanks for a great show Bastille and Songkick.

Bastille were great! It was their first night of the Bad Blood 2014 tour in the U.S., so I think they were as excited for us as we were for them.They opened with "Things We Lost in the Fire," and played big hits like "Weight of Living, Part II," "Bad Blood," "The Draw," "Poet," "These Streets," "Icarus," "Pompeii" (obviously), and went down into more somber songs like "Overjoyed," "Get Home," and "Oblivion." They also played a few newer songs, and their fun cover of "No Scrubs" mixed with The XX beats.

Their energy was great, and the lead singer Dan Smith thanked the audience after every song. Dan also walked into the crowd and sang for a whole song!! (I forget which song because I was freaking out at the time). Their opener, Grizfolk, was good, and Bastille had them back on stage to help sing "Pompeii" as the last song, so they have great relations with them. There was good interaction with the audience, so that even though I was sitting in the upper level seats of the indoor venue, it was still a fun, exciting concert!

I saw Bastille at the Fox Theater at Pomona, CA, and I have to say it was one of the best events I've ever been to! The band was fantastic, the lead singer's vocals were perfect, the flawless acoustics of the venue made his voice all the more haunting and resonating. The instruments were great and the openings were fun. The light display and the production quality was amazing and magical! My only possible complaints would be that the set up of the venue was very awkward and made it impossible for most people to see with how they split up the tiers for General Admission... Also the drums weren't as strong (in terms of how they vibrate to the audience, but I guess we were a bit farther away?) and drums are one of the biggest components of this band. Otherwise, the band itself was great! Amazing show!

Bright Eyes cancel all remaining tour dates for 2024

The band revealed frontman Conor Oberst has a vocal condition that is "exacerbated by excessive singing, requiring both treatment and recuperation"

Bright Eyes have cancelled all their remaining tour dates for 2024.

The US indie rock band announced last week that they would be cancelling their record release shows due to frontman Conor Oberst  losing his voice.

Now, the group have shared that this extends to all shows that were scheduled for the rest of this year due to the singer’s ongoing vocal problems.

“We regret to announce that we will have to cancel our shows for the rest of the year,” they shared in an Instagram statement.

The band were due to perform their final US shows in Oakland (October 11), Los Angeles (12) and Las Vegas’ Best Friends Forever Music Festival (October 13), followed by a UK/European tour in November.

“We love our fans and are incredibly disappointed that we won’t be able to play these shows. All tickets for headline shows will be refunded at point of purchase and we will keep everyone posted on plans for rescheduling.”

The statement went on: “Over the past week, Conor has undergone multiple tests to determine the cause of his recent vocal problems. It’s come to light that he has developed a condition that is exacerbated by excessive singing, requiring both treatment and recuperation.

“We are confident that with a successful regimen, and continued medical attention, we will be able to return to the road next year. Much love & thank you for your understanding.”

Last week, the band said they were “heartbroken” at needing to cancel their album release shows, along with a slot at Riot Fest in Chicago.

They were set to play multiple shows across the US, the UK and Europe this autumn celebrate the release of their latest album, ‘ Five Dice, All Threes ’.

The new record sees Oberst and co. collaborate with artists including  Cat Power ,  The National ’s  Matt Berninger  and the So So Glos’ Alex Orange Drink.

Speaking about the project in a recent interview with NME , Oberst shared: “This time, I still hope the songs resonate and have equal amounts of meaning, but as far as the sounds and approach to the music, it’s a bit lighter. The word ‘fun’ is very rarely used to describe my band, but maybe it is a bit more fun. When we last went on tour we were cruising around with a 14-piece band and strings and horns. This record is going to be just guitars; rock and roll stuff.”

Oranienbaum (Lomonosov)

Still commonly known by its post-war name of Lomonosov, the estate at Oranienbaum is the oldest of the Imperial Palaces around St. Petersburg, and also the only one not to be captured by Nazi forces during the Great Patriotic War. Founded by Prince Menshikov, Peter the Great's closest adviser, the Grand Palace is one of the most opulent examples of Petrine architecture to have survived to the present, although until very recently the palace itself has been greatly neglected. After Menshikov's death, Oranienbaum passed to the state, and was used as a hospice until, in 1743, it was presented by Empress Elizabeth to her nephew, the future Peter III. Peter made Oranienbaum his official summer residence and transformed one corner of the park, ordering the construction of a "Joke" Castle and a small citadel manned by his Holstein guards. This peculiar ensemble, called Petershtadt, was mostly demolished during Pavel's reign. Antonio Rinaldi, the Italian-born architect who also designed the Grand Palace at Gatchina and the Marble Palace in St. Petersburg, was commissioned by Peter in 1758 to build a modest stone palace next to the fortress, and this has survived.

After Peter was deposed, Rinaldi was commissioned by Catherine the Great to build the Chinese Palace, in the Upper Park, as her official country residence. However, Catherine spent little time at Oranienbaum, which she had grown to hate during her marriage to Peter, and by the end of the 18 th century the estate had been turned into a Naval Cadet College. The palace became an Imperial residence again in the reign of Alexander I, and retained that status until the Revolution, when it was immediately opened as a museum. Although never captured by the Germans, Oranienbaum was bombarded during the war and, while the Grand Menshikov Palace survived intact, its restoration was given much lower priority than the more famous estates at Peterhof and Tsarskoe Selo. Today, the small but elegant park has been almost completely restored, while the full restoration of the palaces has finally gained momentum over the last decade.

The iconic multi-platinum-selling group America will celebrate their 54 th anniversary with a series of tour dates in 2024. Known for their timeless magic and powerful performances, the Grammy Award-winning perennial classic-rock favorite will draw on their deep catalog of hits including signature song “A Horse With No Name,” a Number One hit on Billboard’s Hot 100 in 1972.

On their way to becoming a global household name, America’s journey found them exploring a wide variety of musical terrain. Their best-known tunes, which also include “I Need You,” “Ventura Highway,” “Don’t Cross The River,” “Tin Man,” “Lonely People,” and “Sister Golden Hair” were cornerstones of 1970’s Top 40 and FM rock radio. Yet beyond their impressive catalog of hits, listeners would discover there was always much more to America than surface perceptions. The combination of melodic pop rock and folk-jazz elements, slinky Latin-leaning rhythms and impressionistic lyric imagery contrasted well with other more traditional country-rock leanings and highly personal lyrics.

America’s albums–six certified gold and/or platinum, with their first greatest hits collection, History, hitting four plus million in sales–displayed a fuller range of the trio’s talents than did their singles. Their material encompassed an ambitious artistic swath; from effects-laden rockers to oddball medleys to soul-bearing ballads, America displayed a flawless blend of disparate genres and styles as wide-open as the great American plains.

From their formative years, America has been a band capable of transcending borders with its uplifting music and positive message. Embracing a rainbow of divergent cultures, America’s audiences continue to grow, comprising a loyal legion of first, second and third generation fans, all bearing testament to the group’s enduring appeal.
