www.newcastlepost.com.au Psychedelic dose of rock and indie L
egendary psychedelic rockers the Brian Jonestown Massacre, along with Danish indie rock duo The Raveonettes, are
coming to Australia together, for the fi rst time, in May. Australian audiences would need no
introduction to the Brian Jonestown Massacre or, indeed, to their enigmatic
musical director Anton Newcombe. The psychedelic collective has been
embraced by Australian fans who have rewarded the band with numerous sold- out shows in the past, with punters eager to see what the next genre- defying salvo delivered by Newcombe and his cohorts will be. The next quiver from Newcombe’s
musical bow is the album Aufheben. Aufheben or Aufhebung is a
German word with several seemingly contradictory meanings, including “to lift up”, “to abolish, or “to sublate”. The term has also been defi ned as “abolish,” “preserve,” and “transcend.” In philosophy, aufheben is used by Hegel to explain what happens when a thesis and antithesis interact. As an even bigger treat for Australian
fans, the Brian Jonestown Massacre will be joined in Australia by the fabulous Raveonettes. When you’ve had a cult fan base for
as long as the Raveonettes, it’s only a matter of time before some of your most loyal of acolytes begin branching out and making their own kinds of beautiful noise. They will be playing at Newcastle Leagues Club on Friday, May 25.
