Highway to Helsinki: 10 Bands Rock ‘n’ Rollin’ in Finland
It took this group a long while to get a sophomore full-length together — their first came out in 1999 — but it was definitely worth the wait. Can Can Heads are an experimental, off-the-wall group that dabbles in free jazz, No Wave and, generally, all things noisy. Weird is an understatement: every track on Butter Life, out this month, employs a random, junkyard-style framework. Despite that, Can Can Heads aren’t cacophonous. They’re fascinatingly strange, a multi-faceted specimen deserving of examination beneath a musical microscope.

Nautiskelin tän useempaan otteeseen aamukahvien kansa. Bronnen rumpaloinnissa on jotain maagista. Hienoa!

CAN CAN HEADS - BUTTER LIFE LP (Karkia Mistika/ Verdura/ Bottom Of The Pops)
Can Can Heads is a long running experimental punk group from Kauhajoki, Finland that has been around for more than twenty years. Their latest full lenght features eighteen short and convulsive tunes. This five-piece traverses a wide sonic range - from the weird punk groove of The Minutemen to the loseness of free-jazz and the discordant noise of no wave - often within the same song. Most songs are pure instrumental pieces, some are underlayed with incomprehensible spoken vocals. Can Can Heads write elaborately constructed arrangements that are driven by pounding bass lines and manic saxophone freak outs. "Butter Life" is filled with diverse, almost hypnotic soundscapes made with a raw and destructive style. The record's open minded approach is reminiscent of 80s SST releases. Can Can Heads understand punk as an attitude and not as a copy of current trends and hypes.

Miten Turkuun pääsee keikalle? Ollaan oltu siellä viimeksi vuonna 1997. Moni on luvannut järkätä jotain, mutta kukaan ei ole uskaltanut edetä lupausta pidemmälle.pakastepizza vol2 wrote:Saako tätä Turusta jostain?

Can Can Heads finally wriggle their wormy way back into my lair with an LP so skronky you can smell the sock sweat. Why does sax work so well with punk, from The Stooges and James Chance on up to Puffy Areaolas? Not sure I even wanna know; sometimes acquiring too much insight is tantamount to lessening one’s enjoyment. Going down that road will only lead to heartbreak, and Butter Life is a record I want to cement an iron-clad relationship with, no strings attached (save the fibers of my very heart; treat me right CCH!). Considering how many disparate ideas they splatter against the wall, the success rate Can Can Heads manage is astounding. I’m not sure if I hung the ol’ Swell Maps rung around their neck last time I reviewed them, but that’s the highest compliment I can give so they’ll have to deal with it. They’ve got that sense of reckless experimental abandon it’s so hard to find in punks who also can nail it straightaway if they wish. In other words, Can Can can play it hard and fast and even precise, if they want, but what fun would that be? Not near as much, correct. Gold star! So much more to go over with you though; can you stay after school? I’ll teach you about Fad Gadget, Colour Bük, very, very early Scritti Politti, The Residents, Wire, Notekillers, OCS/Thee Oh Sees, The Fall, ShxPx, Beefheart, and all the other bands your Rock History instructor never hipped you to in college for some astray reason.
