"La NWW List è la prima lista miliare in cui la musica riscopre la musica. Questa variegata lista di album che avrebbe influenzato in un modo o nell'altro i Nurse With Wound, non è strictly for fans, nè è da confondersi con miriadi di elenchi seguenti, meno forieri, più tardivi. E' il più coraggioso e influente catalogo di materiale musicale, in un termine la migliore 'indie'-list mai stilata.
Originale, torrenziale, maledetta, proibita ed esiliata. Controcorrente giocoforza, spiritualmente punk, lucidamente iconoclasta, sovversiva. È quasi un organismo con una propria logica: nel suo dispiegarsi scopriamo giochi e relazioni tra dischi, affinità, reazioni particolari inimmaginabili a uno sguardo superficiale.

La NWW List ‘recita’ come un trattato, ‘suona’ più di intere discografie. Nel proprio richiamo, la NWW List lava via certezze e automatismi indotti dall’industria musicale, invita a perdersi per rinvenire nuovi possibili materiali musicali alternativi, in cui spesso e volentieri si svela un cuore, s’insinua il barlume del Genio, sul perenne crinale tra istinto e cognizione.
Le opere nominate dalla NWW List sono state per lo più ignorate ai tempi della propria pubblicazione ma sono continuo oggetto di riscoperta. Da sempre interessanti e singolari, primordiali e violente, agitate e agitanti..da ‘DNA’. Il loro ascolto scopre continui, reciproci fil rouge, ma anche verso quel mondo di leggi e di regole del pop di consumo che spietatamente le scacciò come “infedeli” un tempo, che ha bisogno di simili difformità per il proprio rinnovo; per protrarre la propria menzogna e pensare metamorfosi.

Tra le pieghe paradigmatiche della NWW List, nelle loro realtà e a-realtà, brilla e svetta superbo il focolaio dell’invenzione. Il coraggio, il gesto; l’azione inconsulta e passionale del varcare un limite ‘proibito’.
Riluce e vibra la fiamma del genio creativo più impulsivo e senza freno, spesso non ancora (o mai) “fiduciato” da un pubblico ammansito, ma al quale non manca, né mancherà mai, il tempo."

Klinik e Skinny Puppy

Giacenza inevasa (dead cd office's listening stack)

I heard that you have a CD compilation of every good '60s cut and another box set from the '70s. / I hear you're buying a synthesizer and an arpeggiator and are throwing your computer out the window because you want to make something real. You want to make a Yaz record. / I hear that you and your band have sold your guitars and bought turntables.

If I Had A Heart from Fever Ray on Vimeo.

When I Grow Up from Fever Ray on Vimeo.

The best demonstration for me of how to be creative and imaginative, with a very powerful visual force, in a very subtle personal way, out of preconceived schemes... Awesome!

what use?

What's the use / Of feeling betrayed / What's the use / Of feeling at all / I'm pacing the floor / I'm wearing it smooth / This is stupid / I think i'll go home / What's the use / Of moving uptown / Fly to Rome / On your credit card / An endless parade / Of lawyers and finance / Plenty of time with nothing to do / Give me new noise / Give me new affection / Strange new toys from another world / I need to see more / Than just three Dimension / Stranger than fiction / Faster than light (Tuxedomoon, 1980)

The frozen ones

Marching across our own screensOur faces form all our needsThe future's not returningAll bridges built for burningHow can there be anything wrong?Aren't we the frozen ones?One day I'll just erase the tape, wave goodbye, and fade awayGet lost in the frost againClean the ashes of my face at the bottom of your suitcaseFind a sunset, turn awayHow can there by anything wrong?Aren't we the frozen ones?The frozen onesThe frozen onesWe walk around inside each other visiting the empty roomsPut me on, I'll put you on tooYou knew I'd have to follow you because you saw I'm hollow tooBut it's so nice being I tooHow can there by anything wrong?Aren't we the frozen ones?The frozen onesThe frozen onesChorus:We're nowhereWe don't care who led ushereNo-one will care when we're goneThe frozen onesThe frozen onesToo many pictures on my screen and all of them are screaming at meThought I had this insulationThe only way to stop the flood whenever feelings get too realIs to cut the informationHow can there be anything wrong?Aren't we the frozen ones?The frozen onesThe frozen ones(Chorus)The frozen ones(Repeat and fade)
Ultravox, Ha! ha! ha!, Island, 1977.

The figurehead

Sharp and open / Leave me alone /And sleeping less every night / As the days become heavier and weighted / Waiting / In the cold light / A noise / A scream tears my clothes as the figurines tighten / With spiders inside them /And dust on the lips of a vision of hell / I laughed in the mirror for the first time in a year
A hundred other words blind me with your purity / Like an old painted doll in the throes of dance / I think about tomorrow / Please let me sleep / As I slip down the window / freshly squashed fly / You mean nothing / You mean nothing
I can lose myself in Chinese art and American girls / All the time / Lose me in the dark / Please do it right / Run into the night / I will lose myself tomorrow / Crimson pain / My heart explodes /My memory in a fire
And someone will listen / At least for a short while
I can never say no to anyone but you
Too many secrets / Too many lies / Writhing with hatred / Too many secrets / Please make it good tonight / But the same image haunts me / In sequence / In despair of time
I will never be clean again / I touched her eyes / Pressed my stained face / I will never be clean again / Touch her eyes / Press my stained face / I will never be clean again / I will never be clean again / I will never be clean again / I will never be clean again. The Cure, 1982.
