⚡️ The Call of the storm ⚡️ is online !

5 years have passed since we went into a studio! We are thrilled to finally share our new single 🔥🔥🔥

Take it as a teaser for the album we are working on.A bit of backstory + "The Call of the Storm" was exclusively written for the mixtape "When the punx are united Vol II" in support of the Raymond bar, a self-managed venue founded in 2004 in Clermont Ferrand, our hometown in France. The Raymond Bar is moving out in 2023 as the current building will be demolished.

👉You can find all the info on Histrion Records' bandcamp: histrionrecords.bandcamp.com/album/when-the-punx-are-united-vol-ii The mixtape is available in digital and physical format. All donations will be sent to the venue.

The Raymond Bar's fate is particularly close to our hearts. We have frequented for years as spectators, event planners, and musicians on stage or in the rehearsal room. Some of us met there and lived there and most of the members of the band got involved, still get involved, and will get involved in the venue.

For us, it is an oxygen mask in a tainted atmosphere. It is a weapon of mass creation and a necessary place of free popular expression.

Throughout our discography, some of our songs are more or less direct references to what we have lived there, the philosophy of life, and the fighting spirit that the Raymond Bar has given us. We can cite the titles “The Fallen Star”, “Diy or die”, “Here and Now” for example.

Without the Raymond bar, One Burning Match might have never existed. It’s not the walls that make a venue special but the people running it. But these walls have marked our history.

We wanted to make a song that would embody this special moment when a page is turning and a new chapter begins. By shooting our video into his bowels, we wanted to pay it a final tribute.

⚡️ The Call of the storm ⚡️ est en ligne !

5 ans que nous n'étions pas rentrés en studio ! Nous sommes donc très heureux de partager cette nouvelle chanson avec vous !

Comme un avant-goût de l'album que nous préparons 🔥🔥🔥

+ Contexte +

Cette chanson a été écrite exclusivement pour la compil-action « When the punx are united Vol II » en soutien au Raymond bar, le lieu alternatif mythique de Clermont-Ferrand qui doit déménager car le bâtiment actuel doit être rasé.

👉 Tu trouveras les infos sur le bandcamp d'Histrion records : https://histrionrecords.bandcamp.com/album/when-the-punx-are-united-vol-ii La compil est disponible au format numérique et physique. Tous les dons seront reversés au lieu.

Le destin du Raymond Bar nous tient particulièrement à cœur. Nous le fréquentons assidûment depuis des années en tant que spectateurs, organisateurs d’événements et musiciens, que ce soit sur scène ou dans le local de répétition. Certains d’entre nous s'y sont rencontrés, y ont vécu et la plupart des membres du groupe se sont investis, s’investissent encore et s’investiront dans le fonctionnement du lieu.

Pour nous, il est une bulle d’oxygène dans une atmosphère viciée. Il est une arme de création massive culturelle et un lieu de libre expression populaire nécessaire en ces temps délétères.

Tout au long de notre discographie, certains titres y font des références plus ou moins directes avec ce que nous y avons vécu, la philosophie de vie et la combativité que le lieu nous a apportée. On peut citer les titres « The Fallen Star », « Diy or die », « Here and now » par exemple.

Sans le Raymond bar, il n’y aurait peut-être pas de One Burning Match. Même si ce ne sont pas les murs qui font un lieu, mais les personnes actives dedans, ces murs-là auront marqué notre histoire.

Nous voulions écrire une chanson qui serait un marqueur temporel de la page qui se tourne et de la nouvelle qui s’ouvre à nous. En tournant notre vidéo dans ses entrailles, nous voulions lui rendre un dernier hommage.

okay I find finished watching Groundhog Day the movie, after having seen the musical before, and here are the things I find that the musical did better:

− Rita. Just… Rita Hanson. She's so much more fleshed out in the musical she's barely the same character. She has a backstory, a past, she's driven, compassionate, awkward, filled with innocent wonderment but jaded at the same time, she's not bland AT ALL.

− Diversity. There's more women and people of color in the musical, starting with the female lead who is both. It's still pretty white but it's heading towards a more equal direction. The female characters are treated better too, given more time and made more interesting with special quirks.

− Fleshing out the town characters. There's a few added ones to his normal day if he lets it run normally, there's the songs "One Day" and "Playing Nancy" that really play up this aspect. Their humanity is really made much more clear, how each of them are special and unique.

− Some scenes are given much more emotional depth with the music going with it, I think specifically "Hope". Damn, Andy Karl, how do you do this? And "Everything about you" feels more intimate and special.

− They took like ONE LINE from bland movie!Rita "I wish I had a thousand lifetimes" and they make this GORGEOUS uplifting song "If I had my time again" which is so funny and deep and layered and overall perfect!!! I still can't believe that!!!! Like oh my god. And that day they spent together is also filled with purely platonic interactions and I really love that. The movie version was much more romantic.

− They removed Phil's rape-y scene with Rita so there's that.

− Overall, I find that all characters have more depth to them and are more likable and interesting and quirky. I find that the scenes have a better pace to them, the dialogue (although A LOT is from the movie itself) is more witty, the added scenes are all to a point and give meaning to the story.

− And of course, the songs add a cohesive atmosphere to the musical, the costumes are more quirky and funny.

Sometimes, less is more. I find that the limitations of musical theater staging usually bring about such creativity to go beyond those limitations that the final product is much more creative than the original. I feel that way about most stage adaptations and I wasn't surprised to see this confirmed with Groundhog Day.

“I want to be a terrorist. I want to terrorize this world of men which vilifies my self-defense from constant acts of violence from police, military, and government. Do I seem dangerous in a weaponized world, on seized land no less? Do I seem dangerous with projectiles ripping through my flesh? The parameters continue to yield their intended results: generation after generation learns only from dominance through conflict, and not to break tradition. ALL life submerged in my life's danger is as just as anything else of this tepid existence, and I'd like to think I believe in equality. NONVIOLENCE IN A POLICE STATE IS COMPLIANCE WITH INSTITUTIONAL HATE”

I think Darren Criss could hypothetically be a good Phil Connors some years from now

you see me

TOTALLY, he just has to become a bill murray/andy karl aged Adult, lol. and they have to revive ghd i will buy all the goddamn tickets

just thought about the earnestness with which he’d sing seeing you and i’m dooooone

[shmreduplication]

things I would like to see in timeloop stories: 

emphasis on “you can’t take anything with you”.  I think this plays into the readings of timeloops as a purgatory and it pushes the reference to death.  You can’t take anything with you into the next loop, you can’t take anything with you into the after life.  Just a little more focus on how difficult it is to be stuck in a timeloop beyond just the fact that you’re stuck, you also can’t take any physical notes

good falling action instead of immediately ending after the loop ends.  Breaking the loop is the climax of the story and I know it only takes a few minutes into the next day for the character to figure out the loop is broken, but that super sucks balls when a recurring theme is the impact we have on others.  How do I know there’s an impact of the looped day if I only see 5 minutes of the day after? Obviously there’s a lasting impact on the main character but it’s about the impact on others so we should get to see some of that.  This is something I’ve been seeing a lot in recent books, it takes forever to feel like the plot has started rolling, and then the story ends immediately after the climax.  Timeloops are especially prone to this, and doubly especially if it’s a non-decaying loop.  The storyteller puts in so many details-to-be-repeated into the first loop that it takes f o r e v e r for the character to get to the second iteration of the loop and realize that they are in a loop, which takes away time from every following loop and leaves a flat nothing for any falling action.  

in that same vein: sequels!  Not the sequel that is in the VR videogame where Phil Jr gets looped in Punxs, PA on groundhog day, a sequel that follows the protag readjusting to regular life where they are no longer nigh-omnipotent and immortal.  I think it would be v “astronauts readjust to life with gravity back on earth” but instead of dropping pencils in mid-air it’s nearly dying from not crossing the street becuase you’re used to knowing the location of every car in the city. This also goes only for non-decaying timeloops, survivors of decaying timeloops can get regular PTSD

overlapping loops.  Like character A is looping monday to monday, character B is looping wednesday to wednesday, so monday to wednesday they both have knowledge from all the previous loops, but monday and tuesday B is always doing the same thing because their loop hasn’t activated yet so they have the same ignorance to the loop like everyone else.  This makes working together to escape the loop v difficult.  Also it is a romance story pls

More people in loops together.  Like I said, I’m not doing spreadsheet analysis on all the timeloop stories but one clear overarching pattern is the more the merrier.  Palm Springs, Russian Doll, The Thundermans, both episodes of Stargate SG-1 all had at least two people in the loop and were really good (well, Thundermans was surprisingly good for being kid’s show but not on the same tier).  But two people is not that many, let’s get more people working together and/or being foils for each other

Now every night's miserable I'm so sad that I can't even get drunk So let's go out just one last time, let's finish off a box of wine (Let's go out just one last time, let's finish off a box of wine) Do shots of Yukon Jack and lime, can we drink 'til I fucking die? (Do shots of Yukon Jack and lime)

I'll make you party at my funeral 'cause mourning is for suckers I'll rent a Ferris Wheel and cotton candy machine and have an open bar With all the Pabst that you can drink, the PA blasting my Clash records You'll finally know life's okay even when the bad things happen

So just one more beer then grow up So just one more beer then grow up So just one more beer, go to work, pay your bills, eat a dick One more beer then grow up

This non-conformity looks like conformity Why should anyone believe in our community? This organization doesn’t feel like anarchy ‘Cause we’re suiting up to have the same identity

And the boring, nice people say shut up the punx, shut up the punx! All the people who have barbecues to feed their friends and family Shut up the punx, shut up the punx! All the people writing zines with information, not just blaming things
