Members: Les Kapuscinski ////// "Return To Me - Cha Cha Cha / Bella Bella Maria(7", Single) //// MSK Records MSK-1081, U-24159" //////// "Profile: Les Kapuscinski (Ontario, Canada) Winner of 2017 Joe Jozwiak Award /////// When you think of people that really work hard at promoting polka music, and discussing this topic with others, there is one name that consistently is at the top of people’s list and that is Les Kapuscinski. Everyone knows Les as the “photo guy” who is consistently seen taking hundreds of pictures at all of the events big and small across the country and Canada, regardless of association, capturing the moments that bind us all. We have all seen Les’s work and know not only how much work & effort he puts in to making every picture beautiful, but also just how dedicated he is to capturing the essence of what this music and our culture is all about. One needs only to see or listen to people talk about his photos to understand the impact he has had on the youth in our industry as well as the promotion of so many events to not only polka people but also others through social media. Les, is one of the most selfless individuals you will meet. Les does not do this for accolades, and has never asked for any recognition of any type; he does it all for nothing but the love he has for all of us, our culture and promoting the music we all love. Les defines what the Joe Jozwiak award is all about. (source : https://www.ipapolkas.com/2016-hall-of-fame-inductees-and-award-winners/) ---------- In Groups: Happy Canadians" |

| Tyranna |
Revenge
|
Tyranna (7" 5-song EP) | Boppa Do Down | 2008 / 1979 | Bass – Johnny Bubblegum Drums – Cleave Anderson Guitar – Ronnie Partridge //// Recorded At – Basement Studio, Hamilton, 1979 /////// "Canadian punk band from Toronto active in 1978-79. In Toronto, in the late spring of 1978, Vera 'Rabies' Skye met guitarist John Ziegler and started collaborating on the first Tyranna songs, including 'Unfaithful/Divorce' and 'Shock Face.' In mid-June Ziegler enlisted Gerry 'Johnny Bubblegum' Smith on bass, and the three musicians met for just two rehearsals, and one impromptu neighborhood photo session with Don Pyle. //////// The next Sunday, the first full band rehearsal occurred, with drummer Dave Porter and second guitarist John Tucker. In the next three days, Tyranna added 'Johnny' and two covers, and that Thursday, Friday and Saturday debuted at The Turning Point, opening for The Ugly. Tyranna took Sunday off, then over the next few days recorded their first batch of songs on Tucker's trusty 4-track Dokorder 1140. //////// Rabies presented an opinionated, intelligent, dominant personality that had the self-confidence to mix in playful, child-world elements, as heard on 'Johnny' and 'Divorce'. Her tough, rapid-fire delivery was never contradicted by her strong sense of melody. Ziegler played a gold-top Les Paul, self-modified with a third pick-up, held in place with bandages, that produced a unique fuzz tone. Bubblegum favoured 'all-downstrokes' picking to drive both steady root notes and fluid runs. John Tucker played angular, alternate-tuning riffs, using a sharp, clean Telecaster twang to off-set Ziegler. Dave Porters' drumming featured jazz flavours, and it was his and Tucker's quirky art stylings that finished off Tyranna's unique sound, which The Dents labeled "sophisto-punk." Ziegler mysteriously left the group mid-recording session, never to return. Without him, Tyranna played two more gigs, supporting The Curse, and recorded a seconds set of songs at Porter and Tucker's Wade Avenue loft, before disbanding. //////// Rabies soon met Ronnie Partridge and the two began the song-writing partnership that produced the majority of Tyrannas new material. Ron's hard-edged Les Paul/Marshall sound toughened Tyranna, while new songs also introduced more accessible pop stylings. Cleave Anderson, fresh out of the Battered Wives, brought his rock solid, powerful drumming as well as new songs like the tough, 'Back Off Baby'. The new Tyranna line-up, benefitting greatly from Cleave's experience and rhythmic stability, debuted Feb 1,2,3,4,1979, and quickly gelled into a strong live band with a striking visual presence. Mike Nightmare, of The Ugly, quipped that seeing Tyranna was like looking in a candy store window. //////// An opportunity to help The Edge's famous Two Gary's fill a last minute opening slot for The Dils began an unofficial management relationship. Throughout 1979 Tyranna opened for many local bands as well as touring acts like The Members and Jayne County. Tyranna's climax was two sold-out nights at the Danforth Music Hall opening for Iggy Pop's all-star New Value's tour. Tyranna proved their power by gaining an encore, a point further emphasized when the second slot act did not. Wilder Penfield III, in the Toronto Sun, awarded Tyranna a strong review, and eventually listed the concert in his Top Ten gigs of 1979, pointedly crediting the openings acts' contributions. ///// On the recommendation of Forgotten Rebel Mickey de Sadist, Tyranna recorded five tracks at Hamilton's Basement Studio. Micky joined in the back-ups on Neighbour. The Gary's promoted the tape, Tyranna declined a suspect English record offer, then accepted an invitation to the "No Pedestrians" compilation. Ironically, the offer inflamed internal conflicts, Bubblegum was not invited to the recording and he promptly quit the group, and Tyranna soon disbanded. Shades Magazine called for someone to release the original Tyranna demos, but it took thirty years for an EP to finally appear, in 2008." Vocals – Vera 'Rabies' Skye | 0:56:49 (Pop-up) | ||||

Victims of Victimless Crimes 7" | Ice Machine | 2022 | Released July 8, 2022 //// "Kübler-Ross is a minimal synth/wave/industrial three-piece from Glasgow, Scotland, featuring Craig Clark, Katie Shannon, and veteran electronic producer and remixer producer Dave Clark, best-known for his Sparky moniker, and as one-half of the production/remix team Optimo (Espacio). //// First emerging in 2015 with a couple of compilation appearances, Kübler-Ross released their debut, self-titled album in 2020. Originally released as a limited-edition cassette on the Glasgow label Akashic Records, the album — now resequenced and released on vinyl via Suction Records’ minimal synth sublabel Ice Machine — is a collection of tracks recorded over a three year period in a variety of studios, rehearsal rooms, and gigs, documenting the musical variety and ferocity of their incendiary live performances. The Akashic tape, despite being low-key, under-the-radar, and released in limited quantity, managed to earn them a Long List nomination for SAY (Scottish Album of the Year) for 2020." https://kubler-ross.bandcamp.com/album/k-bler-ross | 0:59:53 (Pop-up) | ||||

| NERVOUS NORVUS |
Transfusion
|
Buddy Holly / Nervous Norvus split 7" | MCA | 1956 / 1988 | Fallcon! The refrain in the chorus "never never gonna do it again" was later borrowed by The Fall for Rowche Rumble. Smith would then go on to record a cover of the original song itself w/ Ed Blaney. /////// "“Transfusion,” by Nervous Norvus, is one of the legion of novelty records from the 1950s that lives on simply because of its absurdity. It’s about cools cat who wind up victims of car accidents, and are suffering from exsanguination as they lay in the emergency room. Are they dying? Are they reflecting on his treatment? Are they going to be okay? Those questions are never answered. The song is beloved for its use of beatnik slang: “pour the crimson in me, Jimson,” “slip the blood to me, Bud,” “pass the claret to me, Barrett.” It’s a funny song, but it’s a message song that masquerades as comedy. Furthermore, this little ditty was also banned by numerous radio stations, simply because it is a very graphic song. But the question is: “I’m never ever ever gonna speed again” a promise to straighten up, or is it the horrifying admission that their driving (and breathing) days are over? You make that call." | 1:25:39 (Pop-up) | ||||

Various – A Bomb Vol 1 E.P. 7" | Earache Records | 1994 | Scorn was formed in 1991 in Birmingham by drummer Mick Harris and vocalist/bassist Nic Bullen, former members of the grindcore band Napalm Death. Upon Bullen's departure in April 1995, Harris remained the only member of the project. Scorn has often been associated with industrial and experimental music, particularly with their Earache Records-era output between 1991 until 1994. Since the departure of Bullen in 1995, much of the output has been minimalist beats with an emphasis on very deep bass lines, often resembling dub and trip hop in structure. ////////// This 7" E.P. is a Promo only given away with Atomic Vol. 1:J- It is not to be sold separatly.
