Gratis afterdinner-show... En lille smule punkrockcabaret , mixet med lidt freejazz. En bismag la Atom & his package, tilsat lidt eksperimenterende lyd. Et tomands-angreb fra slovenien med en franskcanadier p guitar og en pige fra schwitz med en hndgranat tatoveret p underarmen p trommer - hvis vokal godt kunne lede ens tanker hen p en udflippet Pj Harvey!!. Lige hjemvendt fra deres Kina-tour og sidst i huset da de (lidt malplaceret!!) spillede til punkorama 2. Cabaret og standup comedy tilsat lidt musik og trd... Feinsmaekkere vil vide at guitaristen ogsp er kendt under navnet Hermit i noise-verdene. ak, ja, krt barn mange navne... Men kom, om ikke andet er det gratis..
og med deres egne ord...
"...progressive punk-dada attack from everywhere and nowhere. one of the
most travelled unknown bands around. the "real" bass and drums eclecticore.... Vialka is an inflatable submarine who survived the commercial war. It travels unrestlessly around the world to explore the rich diversity of its cultures before it is too late. Vialka is a noisy comedy not ashamed of its own way by scorn or ridicule. It is an invitation to dance to steady explosive rhythms, terror melodies and experimental movements. It is a symphony for humble flesh through the high spirits of rock'n'roll."
Og hvad undergrundspressen skrev...
"Marylise Frechville and Eric Boros, the two basic founders and members of Vialka have a specific attitude to art. Deriving from the underground-experimental-punk scene they break down the frames of simple artistic approach to music or performing. The style they develop is ever changing, full of levels in communication from simple rock segments, through brave and daring solos of common improvisation to jazz-splitted idioms, they develop specific moments of poetic atmosphere of the place they perform at, a certain ambient through which they tell their improvised ideas, opinions in an immediate music communication. They live, as they make music, they make music, as they travel, and they travel, as they live. Living nomads, like ambassadors of new sound and traditional humanistic thinking, they travel around the globe in order to make friends, to spread ideas of open musical frames and show, that personality is beyond art. The most important segment of their artistic role is the personal touch they develop by their art, in order to develop trust, friendship, a community of common open thoughts. The best way to present their ideas is the rich program of theirs, which operates as a multicoloured aristic circus, in which fun, poetry, social critisim, irony are together, it is both the king and the clown are telling their stories of the actual social situation, especially the place and the responsibility of art, to keep it working as a language of honest feelings that build up true impressions, real thoughts and new experiences. Tonight I Show You Fuck is a remarkable music CD of the Vialka Marching Band group, which does avoid talking nuts, but tells straight away through a kick of a hard bass-guitar and a sensible drum, with the backing floating sounds of a saxophone and a clarinet, that life can be joy, fun, humour and fresh wit, all through simple, nice, honest music. Just as if you drew a circle onto the surface of water"
"First of all, Vialka are by far the funniest live band Ive seen in a while. I know Im cheating a bit by talking about them in my french music column because only one out of the two members is french, the other one is canadian. To make things more complicated, they both live in Slovenia. Whatever. Ill always think its a shame no one came to see them play in Newcastle, yet, the fact that the room was nearly empty somehow added to the incongruosity of their set. Its all about a girl, a guy, a drumkit, a bass, impressive musical skills, and a lot of humour. Vialka wear wacky costumes and put on a burlesque " mise en scene " to criticise consumption society and to laugh about Polish punk gigs. They do it between two blasts of destructured jazz-punk, complete with cartoonesque moves from bass-player (chainsaw player ?) Eric Boros. The interaction between him and drummer Marylise Frecheville is hilarious, and the french accent does a lot for that I suppose, but its not for me to talk. Theyre not afraid to play with the ridicule and absurdity to make you laugh and hopefully make you think about what makes you laugh (Im getting lost). Musically speaking, im having a lot of trouble trying to find comparisons, but early The Ex, Ruins, Roof, as well as a whole lot of diverse and totally unrelated things involving jazz, hard rock and " chanson franaise " do spring to mind. Bof. Anyway what more can you wish for than watching great musicians who ALSO make you laugh ? Nothing, except maybe the fiver necessary to get their CD at the end of the gig. I didnt have it. Damn. Nevermind, Igot the bugger in the end, and heres what I have to say: "tonight i show you fuck " is nothing else than the transcription onto digital document of Vialkas greatness. With the participation of Jacopo Andreini , who wasnt with them on stage, on trumpet and clarinet. If youve seen them play, you know you need this cd. If you didnt, well Im telling you. This little gem of off-kilter musical expression, wrapped in very nice naive packaging, is out on Manufracture, Eric Boros own label on which he puts out stuff such as the mighty Bastard Noise, his own noise works as Hermit, his and Marylise former act NNY or the jazz-metal-punk hybrid of Mexican Power Authority (now defunct unfortunately). Basically expect a lot of noise here. Ahhh. Noise. Yes."
