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!

Just like last year Pinnacle Magazine paid a visit to Paris for the Villette Sonique festival. Unfortunately we have less interviews, but a whole lot of more live footage! Of whom you may ask? Well, the Jesus Lizard, Lightning Bolt, Deerhoof, Duchess Says, Sunn o))), Extra Life and incredible footage of Monotonix.

We also have established some contacts over there with other filmers, photographers and so on. It’s going to take some time to process and publish the material, but it will be online.

What can you expect? Live footage of Jesus Lizard from the moshpit (the singer basically jumped on us), the same for Monotonix (the singer actually did jump on us), interviews with Duchess Says and Lightning Bolt and much more.

So stay tuned!

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.
