The Luyas

Think About Life

Adam & The Amethysts

The Pop Montreal International Music Festival is proud to present the 2nd POP OFF tour of 2008 . The tour is a great way to show the community and artistic spirit that is alive and well within the Montreal underground. We thought there was no better way to do this than to take a group of bands that are all intimately connected (all 4 bands will share members) and put them on the road to spread the happy vibes. First up is the Luyas who are Jessie Stein, Pietro Amato and Stef Schneider. Three awesome musicians who together create hypnotic and ethereal pop gems. For some shows Adam & the Amethysts will open. Adam is Adam Waito and The Amethysts are a rotating cast of characters who help give life to Amethyst Amulet an album critics are calling “the hit of the summer”. Following The Luyas or the Amethysts is the psychedelic Pop bliss of the sensational Miracle Fortress. Miracle Fortress is the brainchild of Graham Van Pelt, but the live configuration now includes Stein, Waito and Nathan Ward. To end things off we bring you the explosive and electrifying Think About Life, where Van Pelt will be joined by musical renegades Martin Cesar and Matt Shane to bring you the greatest dance party imaginable.

The Bug + Warrior Queen + Flowdan

Jul 29, 21:00 @ Zoobizarre.
12$. billets @ .

In Gibson's Neuromancer, when Case & Molly meet the two surviving founders of Zion, there is talk of hearing a "mighty dub" in the Babel of tongues signaling the 'final days'.

If indeed we're living in these ‘end times’, as many predict, then there can be no more of an appropriate soundtrack for the coming apocalypse than The Bug's London Zoo.

The Bug is the main project for Kevin Martin, a producer who over the years has also been behind a diverse range of projects. He is part of Techno Animal / Ice / God (all with Justin Broadrick of Godflesh / Jesu), King Midas Sound, Razor X Productions (with The Rootsman), Pressure and Ladybug, to name a few. Then there is the running of his Pathological Records label, collaborations with noise jazz outfit 16-17, Pete "Sonic Boom" Kemper's E.A.R project, John Zorn, Kevin Shields, El-P & Antipop Consortium. He has recorded for labels as diverse as Virgin, Rephlex, Position Chrome/Mille Plateaux, Word Sound, Hyperdub, City Slang, Tigerbeat 6, Grand Royal, and now Ninja Tune. He has been personally asked to remix Thom Yorke, Grace Jones, Einsturzende Neubauten and Primal Scream, and has compiled jazz & dub compilations for Virgin Records.

The new opus, London Zoo, due for release on Tuesday July 29th across North America, is the fruition of all these activities.

London Zoo definitively situates The Bug as an true innovator, an explorer mining the sound spectrum for the rawest expression of post-millennial tension. The album features collaborations with reggae legend Tippa Irie, Roll Deep alum Flowdan, reggae elder Ricky Ranking, and the powerfully fierce Warrior Queen. Although the obvious entry point to the album will be the Dubstep tag, particularly after the success of the three lead up singles ('Jah War', 'Skeng', and 'Poison Dart' in that scene) it's a record that clearly reaches past and brings together and celebrates reference points from dancehall, grime, hip hop, and noise onslaughts. London Zoo is a record that could have only come out of London soundsystem culture but whose appeal spans beyond any singular city or scene.

Be prepared for the deepest rattle on your psyche, vibrating from your core outwards, as The Bug and Warrior Queen storm the speaker stacks to take you the furthest reaches of Babylon, showing you the path to overcome.

Best start building the Marcus Garvey tug now...

FOR A SNEAK PEEK OF LONDON ZOO, CHECK THE EXCLUSIVE KODE 9 MIX: http://www.zshare.net/audio/149977034ccbb68f/

And shall we add to this great press release: Warrior Queen rules!!!

Burt Bacharach & Friends!!

55$. billets @ Admission.com, Atom Heart Records, Cheap Thrills, L'Oblique.

We are excited to announce an incredible show as one of the highlights of the 7th edition of the Pop Montreal International Music Festival featuring legendary songwriter and hit-maker Burt Bacharach. The show will take place on Friday October 3rd at the magnificent St-Jean-Baptiste Church. It will be a special performance by Burt Bacharach and his band and it will feature several guest vocalists from the Montreal scene: Julie Doiron, Owen Pallett aka Final Fantasy, Katie Moore (and a few more surprises to be announced).

Six decades into one of songwriting’s most successful and honored careers – marked by 48 Top 10 hits (including; Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head, Walk On By, Alfie, What The World Needs Now), nine #1 songs, more than 500 compositions and a landmark 50+-year run on the charts, Burt Bacharach’s music continues to set industry records and creative standards. “At This Time”, his 2005 album, which won the Grammy for Best Pop Instrumental Album, broke new ground with Bacharach’s first-ever lyrical collaborations, supplementing the melodies which reflect the pioneering Bacharach sound. He says it is the “most-passionate album” of his career as “At This Time” marked the first time Bacharach took on social and political issues in his music.

Bacharach’s global audiences span several generations, and he is viewed as the unique combination of one of the greatest composers of all time and the ultra-cool cult hero of the contemporary music set who often has several songs on various music charts in many countries simultaneously. His many concerts are SRO, as he tours the United States and the world conducting orchestras and with his own musicians and singers performing his music. He began 2008 with a tour of Australia and Japan, and is booked at many of the United States' most-popular venues through the next two years.

The 7th edition of POP Montreal will run from October 1-5, 2008.
COME RAWK AT THE REAL FESTI!
Other confirmed artists: Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, Hot Chip, The Dodos, The Sainte Catherines, Michie Mee, Black Kids, The Persuasions, You Say Party! We Say Die!, Socalled, Sam Shalabi, Elyse Weinberg, Vetiver, Silver Apples, Liam Finn, + much more!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

 Nous sommes heureux d'annoncer un spectacle incroyable qui sera l'un des plus importants de la septième édition du Festival International de Musique Pop Montréal. Le légendaire compositeur-interprète et créateur de hits Burt Bacharach sera parmi nous le vendredi 3 octobre à la magnifique Église St-Jean-Baptiste. Burt Bacharach et son groupe ont préparé une performance spéciale pour le festival qui intégrera plusieurs artistes invités représentants de la scène montréalaise : Julie Doiron, Owen Pallett (Final Fantasy), Katie Moore (et quelques autres surprises qui seront annoncées bientôt).

Après six décennies d'une des carrières les plus honorées et glorieuses de la composition musicale, marquée par 48 succès du Top 10 dont font partie Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head, Walk On By, Alfie et What The World Needs Now, neuf chansons #1, plus de 500 compositions et une époustouflante présence de plus de 50 années sur les palmarès, la musique de Burt Bacharach continue à battre des records dans l'industrie et à influencer les modèles créatifs. Son album "At This Time", paru en 2005, a gagné un Grammy pour le Meilleur Album Instrumental Pop. C'était la première fois que Burt Bacharach se lançait dans les collaborations parolières qui sont venues agrémenter le son Bacharach. Il a déclaré que c'était l'album le plus passionné de sa carrière. "At This Time" marque le premier moment où Bacharach s'attaque à des sujet sociaux et politiques.

L'audience globale de Bacharach s'étend sur plusieurs générations. Il est vu comme étant l'unique combinaison d'un des plus grands compositeurs de tous les temps et d'un héros culte ultra-cool de la musique contemporaine. Il a souvent eu plusieurs chansons en même temps sur des palmarès dans différents pays. Il fait encore des tournées aux États-Unis et dans le monde entier pour diriger des orchestres et pour présenter sa musique en compagnie de ses musiciens et chanteurs. Il a commencé son année 2008 avec une tournée en Australie et au Japon et fait également partie du programme de plusieurs des salles les plus prestigieuses de nos voisins du Sud pour les deux prochaines années.


La septième édition de POP Montreal se déroulera du 1er au 5 octobre 2008. Virer fous au vraiiiii festival!
