Posted by Klark E Dark on 23rd January 2010 in Grunge, Punk, Rock

Phil Spector found guilty of murderFamous music producer Phil Spector was found guilty of murdering the actress Lana Clarkson by court in Los Angeles. Now, the 67-year-old musician will spend at least 18 years in prison, or even face life in jail.

Lana Clarkson was found dead at Spector’s mansion four years ago – she has been shot. Spector has stated that Clarkson’s death was an «accidental suicide» and was discharged in 2007 – ten jury members voted to convict the music producer, but under Californian law a unanimous verdict is required. Retrial began in 2008 and this time all jury members found him guilty.

During his more than 40-years career Spector worked with such legendary musicians as Tina Turner, The Beatles, Ramones, Leonard Cohen and others.

(Creed) Full Circle

Posted by Klark E Dark on 6th November 2009 in Grunge

A band’s collapse is a common thing in the music world. Even a very successful and popular ensemble may once face the moment when the musicians feel no desire to be together, to play on the same stage and write new material. It is because there are too many factors that influence the establishment and maintenance of healthy and creative atmosphere within a band. The reasons why Creed ceased existing early in this decade remained unknown to many. It all happened very quickly and unexpectedly even for the band’s most faithful fans. To say good bye, these rockers released their worst effort, Weathered, as if proving the meaninglessness of their further activities. The reunion of Creed was not an unprecedented event, but, in fact, was anticipated. Those concerned with the fate of this group were mostly interested in how poorly or well the band would get accommodated in the surroundings of the music world that had significantly changed for almost ten years since the musicians appeared on the stage for the last time. And the answer was given by Creed’s fourth album, Full Circle, released in the autumn of 2009.

As grunge rock goes this album fits the genre perfectly for what it is getting disillusioned  realizing where you are and where you came from and came together and rocked on for the sake of the fans.
