Pinnacle Magazine visited the Villette Sonique festival again where we filmed bands like Jesus Lizard, Monotonix, Deerhoof, Duchess Says, Black Lips, Lightning Bolt and much more.

This is a crude edit to give a preview. The final vids are in high def.

We’re working on features (with interviews and live footage) of Lightning Bolt, Nisennenmondai and Duchess Says.

And there are more goodies on the way!

Ladies and gentlemen, this is the sound of provoking the gods. Those above, and those down under. It’s beyond music, it’s more an experience. This band is extremely loud, harsh, bizar, bombastic, intimidating and even frightning.

This band is Sword Heaven and they played at the OCCII Amsterdam (supporting act for Lightning Bolt).

Filmed and edited by Ralph Lindsen

At the Villette Sonique festival in Paris we interviewed one of the seminal bands of the underground of the 80’s. Mission of Burma influenced bands like Drive Like Jehu, Pixies, Fugazi, Nirvana, REM, Moby, Yo La Tengo, Sonic Youth, Sugar, Jawbox, Graham Coxon and much much more.

After breaking up in 1983, they reunited again in 2002 for two gigs. The result: they’ve been kicking ass in epic proportions for 6 years now, releasing two new great albums and inspiring a whole new generation of fans. Beat that Police and all pointless reunion bands!

This is the first part about the general history of Mission of Burma. There will be a second part about the rerelease of their 80’s catalog, Jimi Hendrix, and fishing when your eighty.
