MARCO MINNEMANN: HANGING WITH Muhammed Suicmez (NECROPHAGIST) and TALKING ABOUT CELTIC FROST

MARCO MINNEMANN, drummer for well known projects LMR, EPHEL DUATH, STEVEN WILSON BAND (and former drummer for NECROPHAGIST) has been hanging with NECROPHAGIST main man Muhammed Suicmez talking about legendary black metal warriors CELTIC FROST.

Perhaps a little optimism for the future as Muhammed Suicmez is all good.




NECROPHAGIST last released "Epitaph" nearly 10 years ago in 2004.

LEVIN, MINNEMANN, RUDESS (featuring MARCO MINNEMANN)   unleashed the bands debut LMR, 9/5/2013 via LAZY BONES RECORDINGS.

EPHEL DUATH (featuring MARCO MINNEMANN) unleashed "Hemmed By Light, Shaped By Darkness" 11/19/2013 (EUROPE) and 11/26/2013 (NORTH AMERICA) via AGONIA RECORDS.

FROM MARCO MINNEMANN:
The other night I was having a great whiskey hang with my dear friend Muhammed Suicmez and at some point we found ourselves listening to some early 'Dark' Metal stuff. 



CELTIC FROST for example was here and there quite enjoyable, such as 'Morbid Tales' (procreation of the wicked) or To Mega Therion. Quite some artistic/experimental pieces on these as well (Danse Macabre for example) and cool artwork from HR Giger!

Anyways, after revisiting this, I felt like googling Tom G Warrior, to see what these guys are doing now. And THIS was the first thing that came up .
Which basically put the entire supposed be dark/haunting vibe all of sudden into a whole different perspective....don't you think....?

ANI DIFRANCO: CANCELS "Righteous Retreat" 6/25-29, 2014 @ NOTTOWAY PLANTATION and RESORT, White Castle, Louisiana

U.S. Folk rock legend ANI DIFRANCO has cancelled out of her previously planned "Righteous Retreat", formally set to take place 6/25-29, 2014 @ NOTTOWAY PLANTATION and RESORT, White Castle, Louisiana after public outcry regarding the shows location.




Southern, USA states has revamped plantations (plantations exploited African slave labor pre civil war)  for luxury resorts and hotels.

Originally from Buffalo, NY and now residing in New Orleans, Louisiana,  ANI DIFRANCO is known for pro feminist lyrical themes, marriage equality and she started her own record label in the early 90's (RIGHTEOUS BABE) to avoid corporate control and for artist freedom.

ANI DIFRANCO unleashed  ¿Which Side Are You On? 1/17/2012 via RIGHTEOUS BABE RECORDS.

FROM TOSHI REAGON:
Retreat Cancelled.
https://www.facebook.com/notes/toshi-reagon/plantations/612219328840333

FROM BUDDY WAKEFIELD:
Howdy shitstorm e'erybody! As a Righteous Babe who was naively excited to participate in this event I'm not necessarily able to make a comprehensive statement today due to spinning full plates and a cruddy case of the crud. Until I or Ani or Toshi or anyone else are able to respond from our personal perspectives on the blunder (thank you Toshi!), I think it'd be most productive for y'all to continue assuming the absolute worst, don't you dare ask thoughtful questions as to how this really went down, venomously insult Ani and her years of efforts, then write as many demolishing statements and articles as possible in an attempt to eternally shackle her to this oversight. If forgiveness is off the menu, consider compassion and the possibility of extenuating circumstances before discounting 20+ years of sincere activism. I think it's pretty safe to say all the artists involved are amply bummed about the situation, and that your hateful approaches/vitriolic statements/narrow understanding of how things transpired have safely arrived to our inboxes. I happen to know that given all the facts we were otherwise not privy to, Ani is cancelling. You can all go feed on someone else's mistakes very soon.
FROM ANI DIFRANCO:
i have heard you: all who have voiced opposition to my conducting a writing and performing seminar at the nottoway plantation. i have decided to cancel the retreat.

when i agreed to do a retreat (with a promoter who has organized such things before with other artists and who approached me about being the next curator/host/teacher), i did not know the exact location it was to be held. i knew only that it would be "not too far outside of new orleans" so that i could potentially come home to my own bed each night. and i knew that one of the days of the retreat was slated as a field trip wherein everyone would come to new orleans together. later, when i found out it was to be held at a resort on a former plantation, I thought to myself, “whoa”, but i did not imagine or understand that the setting of a plantation would trigger such collective outrage or result in so much high velocity bitterness. i imagined instead that the setting would become a participant in the event. this was doubtless to be a gathering of progressive and engaged people, so i imagined a dialogue would emerge organically over the four days about the issue of where we were. i have heard the feedback that it is not my place to go to former plantations and initiate such a dialogue. 

tragedies on a massive scale are not easily dealt with or recovered from. i certainly in no way expect or want to be immune from that pain or that process of recovery. i welcome (and in fact have always pursued) constructive dialogue about these and all political/social issues. my intention of going ahead with the conference at the nottoway plantation was not to be a part of a great forgetting but it's opposite. i know that pain is stored in places where great social ills have occurred. i believe that people must go to those places with awareness and with compassionate energy and meditate on what has happened and absorb some of the reverberating pain with their attention and their awareness. i believe that compassionate energy is transformative and necessary for healing the wounds of history. i believe that even though i am white, i can and must do this work too. if you disagree, i respectfully understand where you’re coming from and your right to disagree. i am not unaware of the mechanism of white privilege or the fact that i need to listen more than talk when it comes to issues of race. if nottoway is simply not an acceptable place for me to go and try to do my work in the eyes of many, then let me just concede before more divisive words are spilled. i obviously underestimated the power of an evocatively symbolic place to trigger collective and individual pain. i believe that your energy and your questioning are needed in this world. i know that the pain of slavery is real and runs very deep and wide. however, in this incident i think is very unfortunate what many have chosen to do with that pain. i cancel the retreat now because i wish to restore peace and respectful discourse between people as quickly as possible. i entreat you to refocus your concerns and comments on this matter with positive energy and allow us now to work together towards common ground and healing.

for myself, i believe that one cannot draw a line around the nottoway plantation and say "racism reached it's depths of wrongness here" and then point to the other side of that line and say "but not here". i know that any building built before 1860 in the South and many after, were built on the backs of slaves. i know that in new orleans, the city i live in, most buildings have slave quarters out back, and to not use any buildings that speak to our country's history of slavery would necessitate moving far far away. i know that indeed our whole country has had a history of invasion, oppression and exploitation as part of it's very fabric of power and wealth. i know that each of us is sitting right now in a building located on stolen land. stolen from the original people of this continent who suffered genocide at the hands of european colonists. i know that many of us can look down right now and see shoes and clothes that were manufactured by modern day indentured servants in sweat shops. i know that micro profits from purchases that we make all day long are trickling down to monsanto, to nestle and to GE. i know that a sickeningly large percentage of the taxes we pay go to manufacturing weapons and to making war. and on and on and on. it is a very imperfect world we live in and i, like everyone else, am just trying to do my best to negotiate it. 

as to the matter of the current owner of the resort and his political leanings, that was brought to my attention yesterday and it does disturb me. but it also begs further questions: who are all the owners of all the venues i or any other musician play? the performing arts centers? the theaters? the night clubs? i bet there are a lot of rich white dudes with conservative political leanings on the list. is it possible to separate the positive from the negative people in this world? will those lines be clear and discernible with enough research? is it my job to do this for every gig? is it possible to ensure that no 'bad' person will ever profit in any way from my existence or my work? again, maybe we should indeed have drawn a line in this case and said nottoway plantation is not a good place to go; maybe we should have vetted the place more thoroughly. but should hatred be spit at me over that mistake? 

i believe that we need every ounce of energy that we have to try to create a positive change in this world. and to work together. that energy is precious.

my focus for the righteous retreat was on creating an enriching experience that celebrated a diversity of voice and spirit. i invited my friends Buddy Wakefield, Toshi Reagon and Hamell on Trial to impart their particular brands of spirit and wisdom to the conference attendees. i also planned to take the whole group on a field trip to Roots of Music, a free music school for underprivileged kids in New Orleans. Roots of Music is located at the Cabildo, a building in the French Quarter which was the seat of the former slaveholder government where all the laws of the slave state were first written and enacted. i believe that the existence of Roots of Music in this building is transcendent and it would have been a very inspiring place to visit. i also believe that Roots could have gained a few new supporters. in short, i think many positive and life-affirming connections would have been made at this conference, in its all of its complexity of design. 

i do not wish to reinvent the righteous retreat at this point to eliminate the stay at the Nottoway Plantation. at this point I wish only to cancel.

i ask only that as we attempt to continue to confront our country's history together, let us not forget that the history of slavery and exploitation is at the foundation of much of our infrastructure in this country, not just at old plantation sites. let us not oversimplify to black and white a society that contains many many shades of grey. and let us not forget to be compassionate towards each other as we attempt to move forward and write the next pages in our history. our story is not over and, Citizens of the Internet, it is now ours to write.

The album will be released mid-January 2014 and available via the band's website (www.narcoticwasteland.com) as well as i-Tunes, Spotify, and Amazon.com. 

Narcotic Wasteland started as a side project Dallas had been working the past few years when he was not touring or in the writing/studio mode with "Nile." "The more songs I completed for "Narcotic Wasteland," the more I wanted to put a full band lineup together," said Dallas Toler-Wade.

Dallas asked long time friend Edwin Rhone (lead guitar/vox) if he was interested, which he was. They both had played in some metal bands together in the early to mid 1990’s. Edwin had later recommended Chris ("Lutachrist") Dupre for bass/vox.

Dallas stated, "Chris came in and not only knew his parts, but owned them with lots of attitude. So the only thing left was finding a drummer. After trying out several drummers from all over the states over two years, my band mate in "Nile," George Kollias, recommended Erik Schultek. Erik did not only nail the material, but fit very well to the style and sound of the music."

Updates on the exact album release date, cd/merchandise, and upcoming touring information can be viewed at the bands websitewww.narcoticwasteland.com as well as their Facebook pagewww.facebook.com/narcoticwasteland.
