Cold Cave / Black Marble / Choir Boy @ Warsaw, N.Y.C.; June 14, 2018.

Hello, Warsaw. We meet again. It’s been seven months since I first visited the Polish powerhouse on Driggs Avenue in Greenpoint, one of my all-time favorite places to visit. That was when I attended Hospital Productions 20th Anniversary showcase and it became an unforgettable experience. This time, it’s a shorter affair featuring only three acts: Choir Boy, Black Marble, and headliner Cold Cave. The ritual is the same as last time and every time. Wait on the platform, take the train, hop on the subway line, and arrive in the neighborhood none more blacker where you stand against the venue’s wall. It was all clear out. Thursday’s warm air and blue skies was not symbolic of the night’s wicked-black climax. I called my sis- to tell her how euphoric I was feeling, experiencing these days and moments I normally don’t but should more often. For every time I waited entry at Warsaw, there was always someone from Stony Brook who I would randomly spot. Last time it was WUSB’s Cornflower zipping past on his bike. Now it’s Marcel, my queer friend from The Stony Brook Press whom I took a quick two seconds to be sure it was him. I was right. We hugged each other and then my anxiety shot up because I haven’t seen him since The Press’ 35th and the venue was ready to open its’ doors. He had to leave anyway for Ru Paul’s Drag Race, the diet of queer champions, but promised him we’d resume catching up down the road.

The line now entered Warsaw. Unlike Hospital’s instant get-go, we waited almost an hour for the opening act to go. Salt Lake City’s Choir Boy was first up, self-proclaimed Mormons (kidding or not) currently signed to Dais Records. They’re a spot-on bullseye of Eighties-aesthetic synthpop, new wave, and light goth-rock that was pleasing and lush. Never abrasive but gentle, breezy, and aurally sentimental. Adam Klopp’s vocals make the outfit’s namesake (he has sung in church choirs), hitting high notes just floating above the collective’s perfect dream world. Their synths, guitars, beats, and riffs and basslines fall right into my current Eighties kick, keeping the vibe alive. And note Kyle Hooper’s dangling earring when he’s right behind synths…

Black Marble was one of two reasons why I chose to be there. WUSB’s Nightmare Aquarium is responsible for making me a fan of theirs during a summer’s transition to Lindenhurst. Their output has been nothing but good to me. To this day, their sound is one I have yet to figure out and that’s a great thing. Chris Stewart / Black Marble got a great standing ovation revisiting his Brooklyn hometown as a new Los Angeles resident. It didn’t change the total mood or quality of his music if ever the slightest. Still a two-man two-guitar outfit without Ty Kube and a drum machine, Black Marble got right to it filling the vastness with said guitars and drum machines upfront as Stewart’s vocals receded far away and above into the open space. Even if there’s a cold, distant, low-fidelity quality in Black Marble, things somehow sound upbeat for its rays of sunshine. A clean perfect set all the way through.

Cold Cave finally take the stage. It can be said (and said again many times here) that they were one of the essential summer sparks igniting my personal revitalization of sorts during the post-economic crash. From then on, their songs continuously watermarked some of the better key moments in my life without fail, so it’s why I paid a visit to see them live as a thank-you. Wes Eisold made his entrance along with wife Amy Lee (guitars, synths), Ryan McMahon (drums), and Nils Blue (guitars) to open the set with songs from You & Me & Infinity. The New Order-inspired “Glory” really got the crowd going. Soon, New York City got a special treat only for themselves: an appearance by Genesis P-Orridge to perform “Comprehension”, her 2015 collaboration with Cold Cave and Black Rain. It’s her residency, so why not have Cold Cave make the most of their visit? Then the blinding “Heaven Was Full” and later on their marquee hit “Confetti”, which to me was the entire night.

Then, flashing solid colors went wild as Cold Cave went into “Rainbow Girls” mode, the only time the show went color. What did we win? A visit by author Max G. Morton of Eisold’s Heartworm Press, who came on-stage to deliver “Heavenly Metals” before Cold Cave’s ultimate closeout. Morton was decked in all black just like their set, standing tall and no doubt couldn’t be fucked with as he spewed his brand of cold despotic mean testimony. A few more songs and the night was history. Cold Cave delivered one of the most powerful performances I ever felt. McMahon’s drums hit hard, loud and clear through Eisold, Lee, and Blue’s blasting synths and guitars. Most of their setlist and songs I hoped they’d play was more I could ever ask for. “Confetti” was the start of a new era for me when all was almost lost. “Comprehension” has become one of my all-time favorite songs of this decade, if not, ever. “Glory” followed suit to become a new memorable winter favorite of mine. The string of favorables still keeps coming from them. With a new American Nightmare record out, it’s Eisold’s winning year. No bullshit, no moshing, no shoving; save for the guy standing next to me (and it had to be him) who was furiously stomping the venue floor to the point of near-collapse, and almost tearing the venue’s front rail off. Someone was a little into himself at the show, no?

My second visit to Warsaw in as many months was just like the first. Randomly encounters with friends from Stony Brook, amazing line-ups in an amazing venue, and another day in Greenpoint where the fever pitch comes from being in a great place in a great time and having the right ties with specific people. It’s not every day I experience it, but when I do, I feel like with all the motherfuckers and fishnet-wearing witches around me in Boy Harsher, Joy Division, Cat Power, and D.S.-13 shirts, I hit the jackpot.

Wes Eisold posted this on the one-year anniversary of Genesis’ death. It was taken by a fan in Greenpoint (Brooklyn) on the day Cold Cave performed at The Warsaw. That was on June 14, 2018. Also on the bill was Black Marble and Choir Boy opening. Psychic TV was also to perform but Genesis had to be hospitalized. She did, however, appear on-stage with Wes later on to perform “Comprehension”, one of my all-time favorite industrial tracks. That was the second and final time I witnessed her perform.

The photo speaks volumes. You can see Genesis and Wes just standing at the corner of Driggs Ave. & Eckford St. looking northeast. It seems like both had nothing else to do or worry about for the rest of the day, but really it was the calm before the storm. As everybody knows, Wes admired Genesis to no end. They both met through Ryan Martin (Dais Records) and since then it was all possible. Wes had published Genesis’ works through his Heartworm imprint and collaborated with her and Black Rain for the Rebellion Is Over 7″, leading up to the day’s Warsaw performance and more.

It was a huge delight attending that show. I waited on line outside The Warsaw on a clear sunny blue-sky 75°-80°F day as the rays hit me from above on a perfect Wednesday in Brooklyn. I went because discovering Cold Cave long ago made me realize that better things were on the horizon, and Black Marble gave me some amazing summer memories while re-locating to new locales. So why not go? Choir Boy was a small added bonus and it was great seeing Brooklyn native Chris Stewart (Black Marble) live, plus everyone at the venue went crazy for Cold Cave. With the colors flashing brightly during “Rainbow Girls”, Max G. Morton making an appearance, and of course “Confetti” and “Glory”, that show is one I’ll always remember.

Cold Cave New Morale Leadership (2010)

There’s a huge different between New Morale Leadership and Wes Eisold’s newer works, leaning closer to his more experimental Cremations-era (2009) recordings released on Hospital Productions and this from the same. The seven tracks found here are some of the more diverse laid down on any Cold Cave release to date. Long-time friend Max G. Morton opens the e.p. with “Summer Trenches” about experiencing goth life and a male interest in a quiet suburb above a shining eye-opening ambience. “Cherish The Light Years”, later titled as a prized Cold Cave full-length, eludes to longing for simple young innocence all before taking the turn for the truly odd of “Asleep In The Hay”. That mid-point encapuslates the bright, lucid, color-sweet ambient tones wrestling with catchy VHS-electric rhythms all equaling something euphoric and numbingly pornographic. Static synthwave assaults feature on “Life As An Affectation”, perfomed live on KXLU. Eisold gives you a re-worked version of “Sex Ads ‘09″ and closes with the synth-pop doom-and-gloom nod “Dead Friends Dancing In Heaven” stirred with unnerving new-wave keys and crunchy rhythms.

300 copies with different color variations were made and only offered at New York City’s Poisson Rouge performance, which featured Max G. Morton, Beaut, and Cult Of Youth. A few days after the Fukushima power plant disaster, Eisold offered an additional 100 copies to Japan’s Big Love Records for charity with different artwork.

I was checking Instagram and went like "hey I haven't noticed any story from Max lately, let's go check on him" and his profile was gone. At first I thought he might have blocked me for some reason but no, the profile is gone for real...and also the chat we've been filling with book titles and suggestions for 2 years. I'm soooooo sad, I didn't even take note of half the titles he gave me cause I thought they were gonna stay there forever

I only hope he's doing fine atp

Todos os filmes em que as cenas de sexo foram para valer

A Bula reuniu em uma lista todos os filmes da história do cinema nos quais os atores se envolvem em atos sexuais reais, não simulados. A diferença entre esses longas e a pornografia é que, embora possam ser considerados eróticos, a trama deles não é meramente pornográfica. Ao todo, a lista conta com 264 títulos.

A Bula reuniu em uma lista todos os filmes da história do cinema nos quais os atores se envolvem em atos sexuais reais, não simulados. Nos Estados Unidos, esse tipo de cena era proibido no cinema convencional, mas a partir dos Anos 1960 os cineastas começaram a ultrapassar os limites. A diferença entre esses longas e a pornografia é que, embora possam ser considerados eróticos, a trama deles não é meramente pornográfica. A maioria deles foi lançada nos anos 1970 e 80, com predominância de dois diretores: o espanhol Jesús Franco e o italiano Joe D’Amato. Por repetidas vezes, também aparecem os nomes de cineastas consagrados atualmente, como Lars von Trier, Gaspar Noé e Yorgos Lanthimos.

Cold Cave “Life Magazine” (Delorean RMX) (2010)

Matador Records proudly (?) presents to you Delorean’s remix of Cold Cave’s “Life Magazine” in glorious full helvetica. No dead-on not-weeping stares, no profile shots of Max G. Morton and his cold blue eyes, and no tattoos that distract you from his soft demeanor and focusing on maybe killing you gently.

Wow, we’re only kidding about the “killing you gently” part.
