Cultural Stimuli in LA
Issue 125: mountainous flavor
As the cyclists of the Tour de France grind their way through mountainous masochism, we honor the kings of climbing with a week full of high points that's sure to draw you out into the game. If you dare to venture outside your bedroom walls, we promise you'll be rewarded with magnificent sights and close encounters that will leave your boredom in ruins. Sway to the rhythms of an Afrobeat scion, titter at the memoir of a super-stud, or curse the Hollywood machine with Tomboys in Fishnets. Make a play for your own (über-stylish) yellow jersey in our Flavorpack Contest, and be sure to cheer your compadres on with a heartfelt "Go team!" We're all in this race together, so let's spread it.

Those who lament the lack of women in the media today haven't tuned into the cheeky political commentary of brassy blogger Ana Marie Cox, editor of Wonkette. Cox has the benefit of a daily soapbox from which to dish on everything from Karl Rove's latest machinations to intern-chasing appointees to all the political dirt and grime in between. Tonight the shameless gossip sounds off on her upcoming book, Dog Days, and life behind the closed doors of Washington. Kudos to Zócalo, the civic-minded sponsor of the event, for training their spotlight on a woman whom the New York Times simply calls a "potty-mouth." (DO)

RES Screening: Roman Coppola Retrospective

Event Info |
|
|
Staking out the elusive middle ground shared by Venice design hipsters and Hollywood film geeks, the monthly RES screenings at the Egyptian are always a scene. This edition features a retrospective and discussion with Roman Coppola. Yes, he can flex a big last name, but while his sister and dad get attention for their features, Roman is an esteemed music video and commercial director. He's done spots for everyone from Blondie and Fatboy Slim to Prius and Nike — not to mention the fact that he established the elite production company the Directors Bureau with fellow director/designers Mike Mills and Geoff McFetridge. (AS)
Note: Ticket price includes post-screening reception.

| MUSIC: Punk/Emo |
Alkaline Trio w/ Rise Against and Death by Stereo
|
|
Angst ain't just for teens any more, and Alkaline Trio are here to prove it. Their drinking days may be over, but there's still enough existential heartache to go around. Easily lumped in with the bevy of Hot Topic emo bands, they have an on-the-nose honesty that elevates them above the fray. It takes a certain something to sing "kissing the curve of your clavicle" like you mean it. Sharing the stage are fellow post-hardcore Chicagoans Rise Against, as well as Death by Stereo — a very noisy metal band that tries their hardest to deliver on their name. (JCF)

|
|
Somewhere along the line, alt-country's reputation got flabby, and it became associated with middle age, microbrews, and bad flannels. But when the bastard child of C 'n W and punk was newly born, it was a much more dangerous thing — its distorted anthems were supposed to simultaneously kick your ass and rip your heart out. With lots of guitar squall and heart-on-sleeve sentiments, Memphis' Lucero is a reminder of the true grit of genre forefathers like Uncle Tupelo and the Bottle Rockets. They're far more spiritually akin to your local basement punk band than any cowpokes in midlife crisis, and they're a godsend for fans of alt-country's old guard. (NC)

What do LA's hottest, most talented — and unemployed — actresses do in their spare time? Many moan endlessly about audition woes, casting couch clichés, and Hollywood horror stories that ring all too true. But while the all-female comedy troupe Tomboys in Fishnets may groan, their angst-channeling-art takes aim at social ailments and bulging corporate power rather than their agents. Created and directed by Edie Magoun, Caught In Red Tape has the Tomboys putting their money where their particularly loud mouths are. Expect another clever, raunchy performance piece that puts the "blue" back into blue state angst. (JH)
Note: Performances continue every Wed through 8.24 (8:30pm).
 Who's your favorite tomboy sexpot? The two most beguiling responses each win a pair of tickets to tonight's performance.

Not content to simply stay free all summer, the Hammer is tricking out its courtyard for some music. LA's Bedroom Walls hook you with brooding, bittersweet "romanticore," then sink you with dreamy, lo-fi guitar pop. Like another act this week, frontman Adam Goldman takes a lot of pointers from early Elliott Smith, delivering distorted, monotone vocals over orchestral strings, tight percussion, plucky guitar, and even a little glockenspiel. SF trio the Ebb and Flow also represent with an acid-folk sound that's replete with Moog keyboards, organ chords, and playful chants. (MG)

Pink Floyd's The Wall (1982)

|
There's more to a second viewing of Pink Floyd's The Wall (1982) than just watching actor/songwriter/activist Bob Geldof engage in some pre-Vanilla Ice eyebrow shaving and chuck a television through a hotel window. In our current cinematic era of clichéd scripts that lead top-billed celebrities through a series of cookie-cutter antics, The Wall is also a refreshing reminder that movies can be free of mindless plot formulas (even if they're a little bit out of their minds). And given Pink Floyd's recent reunion at Geldof's Live 8 London concert, perhaps alienation are good for something after all. (DR)

The Ship Collective members Earlimart play heartfelt indie-pop with a tinge of sadness — and more than a passing fondness for Elliott Smith's music.

|
|
Every aspiring rock guitarist bows down to Jimmy Page and Slash, but Mark Knopfler? His band Dire Straits debuted in 1977 and met commercial success through the '80s. But Knopfler certainly remains one of the most under-sung heroes of rock guitar. When DS disbanded in 1995, Knopfler had already embarked on a solo career that nurtured his experimental side, producing works ranging from small town Americana to motion picture scores, highlighting his skills as composer, poet, and kick-ass guitar player. So come see this sultan of more than just swing tonight outdoors at the Greek. (SNS)

If the effects-laden (but script-thin) War of the Worlds left you wondering where Steven Spielberg the brilliant storyteller has gone amblin', then this is the double feature for you. The American Cinematheque takes a trip back to the golden age of Spielberg with back-to-back screenings of Raiders of the Lost Ark and Close Encounters of the Third Kind. More than most of his vast filmography, these popcorn movies give us that wonderful Spielbergian mix of soaring imagination, superbly realized special effects, strong storytelling, and childlike awe for other worlds and other times.

|
|
Being in a band is a bit like playing team sports: it only really comes together if everyone is doing their part. Brighton, UK-based dance-pop collective the Go! Team take that metaphor literally, to the point of being their own cheerleading section. Like a lo-fi version of the Avalanches or Lemon Jelly, these guys and gals mix and mash '70s cop show themes with double-Dutch raps. Riding on a wave of unbridled enthusiasm usually reserved for fuzzy college mascots during March Madness, the Team have already sold out their Thursday show at the Troubadour — and their electrifying debut album isn't even out here yet. (EJL)

Kings of Leon w/ the Secret Machines and the Shout Out Louds
|
|
Tennessee's Kings of Leon are probably sick of the Southern rock comparisons by now. Their sophomore release, Aha Shake Heartbreak, even shed some of the more obvious Allman Brothers/Lynyrd Skynyrd elements for a cooler, more spacious sound that resembles an earthier version of Wilco's recent musical direction. Full-on Southern rock or no, the Kings still mystified audiences when they opened for U2 on their recent arena tour. For their own headlining show, they've brought along two equally worthy bands, making for a dynamic triple-bill: epic Texas-bred rockers Secret Machines and Sweden's latest quality pop export, the Shout Out Louds.

A cult and kitsch staple since its launch in 1990, Fetish Ball stitches together the world of fashion, performance art, erotic theatre, and night club couture into a glorious, pleathery event.

Andrea Echeverri is a Colombian singer best known for fronting the band Aterciopelados, whose blend of guitars, electronic effects, and a variety of South American rhythms scored them two Grammy nominations. When Echeverri went solo in 2005, she started winning comparisons to Cat Power. Tonight sees the songbird reunited with her band as part of the Getty's Summer Sessions. They appear with Los Pinguos, Los Super Elegantes, and DJ Dark Alley, who spins a mix of Brazilian tunes. Food and drink are available for purchase, while panoramic nighttime views of the Los Angeles basin are free. (DRC)

Giant Robot's GR2 space gets cutesy and cozy tonight with an opening for an exhibition full of childlike merriment and glee. This double show shines with Sunspots from Jeana Sohn, who's presenting whimsical and delicate illustrations of animals and young girls. Far from blotting out the pervasive sense of levity, Etsu Meusy's The Pink Cloud adds more fuel to the fey fire with paintings of puffy stuffed animals, bunny rabbits, and, well, Axl Rose. GR2 has uppded the ante again with this showcase of two fem-phenoms. (KH)

|
|
Ruins were shredding eardrums and driving bespectacled music nerds into a frenzy more than a decade before Lightning Bolt first blasted out of a Providence basement. Inspired by the intensity of punk and the complexity of bands such as France's Magma, drummer Yoshida Tatsuya formed the prog-thrash duo in 1985. Since then, they've melted faces with releases on both Tzadik and Skin Graft. But it's their live shows that make avant-hipsters pee themselves: "That song was a cover," Tatsuya once announced after a song, "But you may not recognize it. It's 'Ride the Lightning' backwards." Headliners Zolar X are long-lost local freaks who in the '70s dressed like spacemen, made up their own language, and connected the dots between buzz-saw garage and crunchy glam. (GM)
Note: This show is part of Ruins' Bassist Wanted Tour, as longtime bassist Sasaki Hisashi has left the band. Genghis Tron and Pray to the Robots also open.

Julianna Raye's voice moves freely between velvety warble, amber-toned alto, and breathless spoken word. Her subtle orchestration, jazzy phrasing, and darkly romantic lyrics make an ideal score for the paintings inside the building. Come early and get in the mood with a screening of Julian Schnabel's Basquiat. This gorgeous biopic features a breakthrough performance from Jeffrey Wright, a star turn from Benicio del Toro, and David Bowie's definitive portrayal of demigod Andy Warhol. (SND)

Fursaxa w/ Spires that in the Sunset Rise
|
|
You know just from their names that these bands are going to be getting into some truly Gandalfian psychedelic folk grooves. Fursaxa (aka Tara Burke) is Philadelphia's chief representative in the freak-scene congress; her tunes bear official seals of approval from head gurus Thurston Moore and Kawabata Makoto of Acid Mothers Temple. Her guitars and dulcimers stay minimal and penitent while her voice waxes and wanes like a pedal steel. Spires that in the Sunset Rise are a musty band of hippies from Chicago that mix up drones, ragas, and free-folk reels à la Current 93 and Sunburned Hand of the Man. (DRC)
Note: Fursaxa also plays the Echo on Mon 7.25.
|
|
| MUSIC: Sister Act |
The Chapin Sisters
|
|
The one virtue local trio the Chapin Sisters shares with classic sister acts of old becomes apparent when they sing together: that shiver of spotless, familial unity that makes every syllable woundingly poignant. Never mind that the material itself is hardly so timeless — the girls do morbid indie-folk remakes of everything from Britney to the Cure — when the harmonies kick in, it doesn't matter what they're singing about; it's pure heartache. A residence at Spaceland offers a brighter (and long overdue) spotlight for these lilting ladies. (NVB)

Femi Kuti assimilates an even broader range of influences than his legendary father did, but it's his live act that truly channels Fela's passionate presence. The Bowl outdoes itself tonight by pairing Femi's broad-minded Afrobeat with the big band hip-hop of Mos Def's Biggie and the head-bopping Wolof rhymes of Senegalese MCs Daara J. (JD/TW)

|
|
Nothing inspires a craving for gelato on a Vespa more than Roman Holiday. Awash in '50s glamour (in the form of Audrey Hepburn's daringly short haircut) and cosmopolitan scenery, this ultra-classic romantic comedy can still convince modern cynics that true love really exists. The film marks Hepburn's first starring role, but her sparkling charm and naïveté as the runaway Princess Ann earned her a Best Actress Oscar. Tender-yet-paternal Gregory Peck didn't weather the sexual revolution well, but as gruff American reporter Joe Bradley he's swoonworthy. Underrated compared to the muddled writing and wooden acting of Hepburn's iconic Breakfast at Tiffany's (George Peppard? Please!), Roman Holiday is a cinematic gem. (MP)

Brendan Benson w/ Robbers on High Street
|
|
Few songsmiths can create pop tunes as perfect as Brendan Benson's without falling off the Top 40 cliff. Infusing bubblegum with heart, he brings a touch of melancholy and remorse to otherwise jangly melodies. Robbers on High Street may be plagued by the constant comparisons they receive to indie icons Spoon, but tonight their moody piano-and-guitar-based jams provide the perfect pairing to headliner Benson, whose pure, polished pop calms where the Robbers incite. Vocalist Ben Trokan, the Robin Hood to these merry men, croons above his band's compositions from behind his keyboard or up-front-and-center. (DL/JCF)

The Echo Park Film Center is a nonprofit media arts center founded with the mission of providing underserved students with access to film and video education. The students (ages 12-19) were encouraged to tell their stories in their own voices, and the results range from documentaries to experimental films. The participants examine the political and social dynamics of their neighborhood through the prism of personal history, reinforcing not only a skill set, but the knowledge that everyone's life story is worth telling. These flicks from the heart are now playing in a continuous loop in the Skirball's Hurd Gallery. (SND)

FEATURED PARTNER: Health Equity Project |
 |

While the G8 leaders debate African aid levels and crunch debt relief numbers from a decidedly macro perspective, it's also worth noticing the people doing the actual legwork to address poverty, disease, and the spread of AIDS. The Health Equity Project is a US-based, all-volunteer, nonprofit organization that provides on-the-ground support in developing countries, helping facilitate access to medicine and quality healthcare providers. One of the most innovative initiatives is the group's recently launched healthcare program for sexual minorities, who are often denied treatment. Ghana is currently the test site for the program, which will expand to sub-Saharan Africa with adequate funding. For more information check the recent BBC World Service story or visit healthequityproject.org. (CJN)

CD REVIEW: Fantômas, Suspended Animation |
|
|
Ipecac Recordings
Released April 2005
$12.99 (Amazon)
|
Suspended Animation sounds like Mike Patton and his Fantômas supergroup have been battling yakuza clowns from outer space. Their arsenal on the album includes boings and splats from the Acme armory and Speak & Spell samples to augment the steely and impossibly precise riffs from the Melvins' King Buzzo, whip-thrash blast-beats from Slayer's Dave Lombardo, bass and compositional derangement from Mr. Bungle's Trevor Dunn, and of course, the schizoid voice of fellow Bungler Patton himself. Fantômas' M.O. is always high concept — on S.A., each track corresponds to a day in April, and the CD is packaged in a calendar illustrated by cutesy pop artist Yoshitomo Nara — but Patton's been able to make metalheads and Wire-reading dorks alike drop their shorts.
