Arturo Vega, artistic director to the Ramones was onto something. With this, we’re happily saying cheerio to new rave – a man-made music movement dreamt up by NME to describe the Klaxons, and a fluorescent fashion movement that has saturated the high street. Fashion is a sure-fire way for musicians to set themselves apart from the rest. It can quickly propel them into the mass conscience. It can also trap them in a mainstream fad that goes out as quickly as it came in. So, in Issue 3 of Frock, we’re all about: Oh-Death – A design label that illustrates how the mass market can suck the life out of musiciansLevity Records – Levi’s indie record label signing fit, young rockstar ass to sell jeans Midnight Juggernauts – The guys who (say they) wont be swayed by fashion fads Free Blood – Singer and fashion designer Madeline Davy on how to shake up the scene Gay Against You – Cubase, wolf masks and the future of live shows Plus what the kids are wearing to go see: Golden Silvers, Bang Gang Deejays, Release the Bats – ATP Halloween party, Digitalism with Midnight Juggernauts, Man Like Me at Amersham Arms, A-Trak,DJ Mehdi and Kid Sister at Fabric. And what you can expect to hear while shopping for threads on Brick Lane. |
