“I suppose the thing that attracted me to him as a lyricist, is, a combination of humour and truthfull observation. And I think, I might be wrong, but… a spiritual curiosity.” (Bono)
“Charles’s lyrics… the way he… the permutations that he created within the different subjects that he dealt with… were so unusual. It was the sense of imagination, and I use imagination not lightly, not in terms of it being a fantasy, which much people define imagination as, but being able to understand the infinities of something, and how these infinities illuminate the subject.” (David Bowie)

"This study helps explain why the distortion of rock-and-roll gets people excited: It brings out the animal in us. Composers have intuitive knowledge of what sounds scary without knowing why. What they usually don’t realise is that they’re exploiting our evolved predispositions to get excited and have negative emotions when hearing certain sounds."

TC Matic fut un groupe de rock belge, issu en 1980 du duo Tjens-Couter, fondé par Arno (chant) et Paul Decouter (guitare). Il fut remplacé bientôt par Jean-Marie Aerts, qui écrira avec Arno la plupart des titres du groupe. TC Matic mêle divers styles : blues, funk, hard rock, new wave et même chanson française. Il en résultait un rock dur avec de fortes influences américaines, mais un caractère européen. TC Matic apportait un mélange original de rock et de new wave au début les années 1980, et reste une référence du rock européen, particulièrement au Benelux. (via Wikipedia)

Here is our new video. Just like Americanarama, it was directed by the president of awesomeness, Greg Jardin. Once again it was done in one take, with one camera. We love doing one take videos with Greg because they make us feel like we are in elementary school gym class. This shoot was basically a giant obstacle course that we had to try and figure out before our two days of shooting time expired. The cameraman also had a really hard job because he had to memorize the choreography for everyone so that he could follow it all.

"When we did the last U.S. tour [2007], it became apparent that there’s so much sexism in rocknroll music. I mean, the promoters, the sound guys — everybody just sort of ignores the woman in the band.” Webber describes being mistaken for a backup singer and routinely having questions directed to other band members on issues pertaining to her equipment. The rest of the band was similarly frustrated, according to Webber. “They’re like, ‘Why don’t you ask her? She’s right beside me.’ Funny stuff like that. It’s ridiculous."
“He is perhaps best known as the incomparable Captain Beefheart who, together with his Magic Band, rose to prominence in the 1960s with a totally unique style of blues-inspired, experimental rock & roll. This would ultimately secure Van Vliet’s place in music history as one of the most original recording artists of his time. After two decades in the spotlight as an avant-garde composer and performer, Van Vliet retired from performing to devote himself wholeheartedly to painting and drawing.” (via BBC News - Don Van Vliet, aka ‘Captain Beefheart’, dies aged 69)
