The death of the Riot Grrrl


It's over... The Canadian girl who come to the mainstream trying to be in the opposite side of Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera is no more... In the video from her single "Girlfriend" she stills try to keep the Riot Grrrl look , but you can see that it's not what it used to be. She is very hot, but she has always been hot. Now she tries to use it to sell cds like all teen singers. It's her career, she has the liberty to choose the way that she thinks is better for her, but for me it's hypocrisy. The music is really cool, has a good rhythm and it sticks in your head in the second listening, but it's no more the Avril Lavigne that we saw in her first video "Sk8er Boy" and that's a shame. Her you could see the video and make your own opinions. 'Till next time...

And Brasília has something good...


Some time ago I discovered a great band, with a name corresponding. Móveis Coloniais de Acaju. They come from Brasília, Brazil's capital. Nope, it's not Buenos Aires... Sorry... The band formed by ten people mix together a bunch of different influences that is just amazing. They put together rock'n'roll, samba, samba-rock, maracatu and some other european ethnic musics. And the result is just great. With lyrics that ranges from non-sense to pure poetry the band has talent to be one of the greatest brazilian rock bands. They just have to be discovered by a big label. 'Cause you can say that Móveis is still a indie band. They have seven years of work, but are known only between those who likes differents mix of sound. But I hope everything is gonna change soon. If you don't know the band, go to their site, clicking in the link above. If you know the band, go anyway. They deserve your access. Until next time... Bring it on...
